Time to celebrate -My World turns one :-)




oh yeah ...i am celebrating...
I started writing from August 2007 and before i knew it , it has been a year

One way , am so happy that my blog got me writing what i think ...
All my blogs are my own thoughts and opinions ...
Sometimes i have thought about writing out of imagination..
but then guess that is not my style .Somehow , i have taken a liking
towards expressing myself, my opinions through my blog & i love this...

I always wanted to be a journalist more specifically a reporter ...
One day, i was catching up on a long conversation with a colleague on
my career ambitions .She was an active journalist herself some years ago
and she encouraged me to start writing for MSN and that's how my writing
journey started ... When my first article was published on MSN contribute ,
my joy knew no bounds ..i was elated !!!

All my articles got published in MSN contribute and this was a boost to start my own blog .I wanted to keep writing without restrictions & approvals ,
that is how "MY WORLD " was born :-) and today she is 1 yr old :-))

Happy Birthday Dearie !!I hold you close to my heart and will never ever abandon you .... Shall keep writing forever:-P

Karma?



Well...i wonder what kind of creation is human being ...
who created us ? and why do i get that feeling of helplessness all the
time i see someone in rags,someone begging or someone beaten up
Sometimes i feel the same way when i meet really aged people at tough jobs .
My heart aches when very elderly men come seeking for business...
Wonder how they handle tough jobs at this age ..and have to run around
in spite the rising mercury , meeting young people like me to get business for their companies ..sometimes i feel sorry to say no to them!!
then i wonder ..is this sympathy wrong ?? may be yes !!!
i need to see more of the enthusiasm in them that has not changed in spite the old age rather than sympathise with them ...

How nice it would be if everything in this world seemed so perfect ...
no beggars ...no one slogging for business etc...
but then ...may be there is a reason why everyone is in that kind
of stage in their lives ...

I had my lesson one fine day ..

We were on a drive and at one of the traffic signals ...i noticed a man begging ...!!
The usual sympathetic me pestered my husband to reach out and offer the beggar something ...As he was more concerned about getting ready to go with the green signal ...i reached out and quickly offered few rupee coins ....
the next few seconds..i regretted what i did ...!!!
i could not believe that guy who was legless and begging on roads
could not understand my compassion instead teased me ...he merrily sang
.. "Dhoom machale" and he had spoken something that i failed to hear as the car went away from him ....only when my husband reminded me that he was teasing me,singing & mentioning .."let's go out" .....i realised how foolish i was
to feel for people like these !!!
no wonder it is said " Wherever & whoever you are ...It's your Karma"
He must have surely been an eve teaser in his previous birth and has accumulated such bad karma ....that he is begging on roads today ....and all i saw was may be a little of his nature ...this was my lesson learnt this week :-)
