the office wants me to fill up a huge questionnaire with all my personal details!! they want to know the moments of my life... a glimpse into who iam! well thats a question i still keep looking for, coz every life experience alters me a little. What am i here for is a Q that haunts me when iam alone at night ... wondering if i have found thr true purpose of life ? if iam living life to the fullest ... if there is something just round the corner waiting to happen and hoping i know when it does !! so many why's what's and where's ... hmmmm dont like the W word... too many Q's!!
shd i share these details with people who i know only on a professional level... giving them a glimpse to "ME" opening up some vulnerable spots .. sharing my most joyous or sad moments , sharing a little of my heart .... what is the purpose ? of what use is all that info ? My sensitive soul likes to stay behind the curtain of ambigous and frivoulous funny answers and keep a little of me tucked away always! I have many friends and each of them knows some nuances of me as a person.... opening it up to a organisation.... does not make it a private memory anymore !! wonder what i will do !!!!

cant think of one
I read 3 diff blogs today and in each of them glimpsed into some one's life and happenings and it is reiterated that we all yearn for almost the same things ... let me list a few
1When we write about family - good, bad or fun or average stuff, there is a sense of belonging and affection that comes through
2. Children - everywhere and almost in every blog - Mom's with or without a sense of humor still manage to bring a smile on your face when they write about their children or the antics they are up to.
3. People feel strongly about issues that affect their daily life and have no hesitation in saying that.
4. Good governance is some thing everyone wants.
5. There are many folks .... whose writing talents have been discovered..... you dont need to write a book to be famous, or to feel like a author !!
6. The 10 things that irritate... seem to be like the latest virus on blogosphere~~
another day, another time... bye for now!

Today's Govt
Seriosuly… some of the articles on the pro bjp sites … speak about how there is a octegenraian trying to lead the bjp and that’s why they failed… well LKA is as old as a MMS… so what does age have to do with it ???
A lot actually….. I don’t think todays generation even relates to some of the things that the politicians speak about(who in the first place don’t have a clue about what they talk) Y
The young today in the cities are very clear about what they want – freedom to dream , freedom to live a life of their choice, wear clothes of their choice, the opportunity to be able to study whatever interests them rather than the traditional – engineering, doctor… blah blah blah. A road not filled with potholes, traffic that wont wear them down, affordable and clean public transportation etc….
The needs of the rural youth are not much different, they see a diff world on their TV everyday and they would like access to that. Good medical care, good schools, good roads, loans to do farming… decent food…
All our politicians do is to promise everyone everything and deliver very little. Truly if theIndian state has moved forward it has been inspite of the politicians. It has been the spirit of enterpreneurship that has driven us to where we are … today… they have managed to do either by paying or by influencing… but the consequences are far reaching… it has changed the way the current generation lives.
I wonder
is it so diff to not accept bribes?
is it so diff to just do the right thing?
What if
The RTO officer refused to give a license to the doctor from the ESI hopsital coz he was refused treatment when he went to a hospital
The Doctor refuses to treat the patient coz at the RTO, the officer did not give him a license without taking a bribe
The principal refused admission to the child of the government officer who did not grant permission for the school to build another floor
The government officer did not give permission to build another floor and dragged it even though the building by laws were followed – coz the school did not accept his child without a huge fee paid at the beginning of the year
Company A refuses Job to candidate A since his/her father was a police officer accepting bribes!
Self correction is what would be the result!! What chaos!
All we want is a Government that actually governs , that creates opportunities, rewards performance and does not expect the 30% population pay with their taxes for the 60% of rural population with subsidies for the sake of votes! That they create world class infrastructure!!

Summer times
It sure has been a long time!! its been a quite month a silent approach to summer!! Earlier, Summe would be filled with plans for holidays, plans for visits to various aunts, uncles, many grandparents that you had ( what a lovely time and how innocent and enjoyable) Today, its work and more work - with family ... u dont get the time to spend with relatives... either they are or you are always busy.
I wonder - was I just naive or was that how the world moved during those times. It sure was a beautiful time even if there was a naivety to it - a charm that was full of warmth and a feeling of being secure amongst all the family members.
You savoured every moment that you spent on the streets playing seven steps, four steps, seven stones/lagory, hide and seek, statue ..... and sometimes sheer chatting nineteen to the dozen...
i miss those times! i so miss the fun, i miss the informality of relationships where everything did not get weighed, against ROI.

I Wonder
I was reading the blog of the pioneer woman and her introspection set me off too. Iam 39 - when i was younger just completing my teens.. here's what i thought i would be doing. I would pass the civil services exam, i would be a officer with the power and the machinery to make a difference, definitely watching plays, listening to music, loving the movies , in the city, buying books tht i loved reading, walking to coffee shops having endless debates about the politics of the nation, goss about celebrities, have the money to invest and be a part of decision making for the nation.
and now here iam ... 39 merrily single, no plans of getting married either.... in a job that is satisfying (though iam bored to death some days) with friends i love, family i adore ... though they do get on my nerves often. families do that u know... get on your nerves ..lol ... all it does is prove that my nerves exist!! colleagues i tolerate etc etc.. u know the grind!! there are some i do like.. but hey they are so few !! :(
i never visualised being here in this spot... but it happened and it wasnt even all planned ... it just changed and with each change came something - a little good and a lot "whatever".
I Wonder ... if given a chance to relive my life.. what are those things i would change ? would the result be totally different .. who knows ... destiny they say guides your every move and iam so much a believer of destiny!!!
