Pieces of Me

Children Learn What They Live

If children live with CRITICISM
They learn to CONDEMN
If children live with HOSTILITY
They learn to FIGHT
If children live with RIDICULE
They learn to BE SHY
If children live with SHAME
They learn to FEEL GUILTY


If children live with TOLERANCE
They learn to BE PATIENT
If children live with ENCOURAGEMENT
They learn to HAVE CONFIDENCE
If children live with PRAISE
They learn to APPRECIATE
If children live with FAIRNESS
They learn JUSTICE
If children live with SECURITY
They learn to HAVE FAITH
If children live with APPROVAL
They learn to LIKE THEMSELVES
If children live with ACCEPTANCE and FRIENDSHIP
They learn to FIND LOVE IN THE WORLD.

I was not sure when I would be back here and write another blog.I almost forgot that I had one.

Anyways my life so far was very nomadic...I had been travelling a lot, I was in kerala for quite some months, had stayed in hyderabad for more than a month, bangalore for 2 days, manipal for 2 days and finally chennai happenend to be my finally destination.

I did a lot of things, experinced much(good and bad) and made some new friends.
At this moment, I cant think of scribbling anything else.. the long time gap maybe..
but a jus simple wish to me on my blog
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME !

This was taken on the last day of Ramadan.Didn't come well and wanted to get a better picture to show all the hustle and bustle going on few days before Eid.Its one of the most busiest days,people out shopping, buying gifts for relatives and friends for Eid, roads are swamped with cars that move at a snail speed cuz of the traffic.


These few days were so busy.Let me clarify.. I was so busy being LAZY !
Sloth has taken over me, argggh
Once it has taken over, its quite difficuly to come out of it.
Not a good time for it to happen when I am here practically juggling doing two things, that is preparing for CCNA exam and getting ready to go home.Yah I m going home to my house in Kerala! Haven't been there for a long time and I m happy/ anxious at the same time.. I call it my home, but haven't stayed there for a year, not even 6 months. But there is some kind of soothing pleasure and bliss in going there.This appartment which was my home for many years can't be compared to my home, even 10 %.
Not stayed for long but made many good/bad memories there. I have become an almost pro chef there. It was the time when my parents were not there and had to manage everything. I would put fish on fire and run to my aunty few steps away from my house and ask her," So what do I do next ? " Learnt a lot from her and considered her a great cook, making simple meals taste so yummy. Now I came to know that, cooking is not that tough rather its all about Imagination, Experimenting, Practice, Practice and more of that.
Nothing is more pleasing and captivating when I will jus feel the pure air, the lush green trees everywhere, esp for someone who have stayed here for long.When I will feel the water taken directly from my well,it will be like I have touched the Himalayan water. No matter how clean and pure they make this sea water, it can't be matched to the pureness I feel back at home.

I have been getting a recurring dream lately. That I will start up my own business someday.Not sure of what I will be selling as yet but everytime I see this dream :)Don't know if I should laugh or not

And its been almost a year since I started blogging. A year that I poured out my thoughts.Its been a different experience. I believe that you always get something back in anything you do, be it simply blogging too. Of once, I thought I was a tolerant girl.I have tolerated and adjusted many things in life but blogging made me see I am not that much as I thought and have slowly becoming one..Blog gave me much laughter and memories.this year has been a real emotional rollercoaster ride for me and was nothing like last year.In a way it was good and I did capture most of them in this blog.Two more months yet to go and something is telling me that the real ride is yet to start baby..time will tell
My special THANKS to each and everyone who have took time to read and then comment here >:D< May not have replied to every comment but thank you. Will I continue for another year ? Not sure

Have a nice day !
Bye

Took the picture of the Liberation Tower, inside a moving car.

Pic taken from my sis Motorola Razr V3.
Certain features of this Mobile sucks. I dont like the Message options and generally the usage. Nokia is much better in this aspect and in many others too.

Nokia still my Numero Uno
Go Baby

When I was in my early teens, this song gave me the chills
When I hear it again, I get the same chills every single time

The Greatest Love of All

I believe the children are our are future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Everybody searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone who fulfill my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me

Chorus:
I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I'll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all

I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be

Chorus

And if by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love

I dont know who has wriiten the lyrics but
Thank you Whitney Houston for singing this song that always pulls me up in any kind of darkness I may be in :)

I m having a bad day.
Got up from bed feeling drowsy due to staying up late night. I don't/can't sleep for long hours during the day even.
Skipped breakfast..
With a weary feeling all morning,jus hoping this feeling goes, no luck
Later during the day, felt hungry.. saw a cup of curd in the fridge( I love to drink curd), took it out and thought I placed it on top of the oven...next thing I see.. curd spilled all over the floor....shucks ! Left me with more work.. mopping the floor

Ah, well it's one of those days


This song comes to my mind now..

Where is the moment when you need it most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
Tell me your blue skies faded to grey
Tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

Your standing in line just to hit a new low
Your faking a smile with the coffee to go
Tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces every time
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day, you're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know, you tell me don't lie
You work on a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day, the camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day... you had a bad day

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin'

Sometimes the system goes on the blink and the whole thing turns out
Wrong
You might not make it back and you know that you could be well all that
Strong
And I'm not wrong (Yeahh!!)

Where is the moment when you need it most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day, you're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know, you tell me don't lie
You work on a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day,
You see what you like, and how does it feels
One more time, you had a bad day
You had a bad day....
(Yeahh!!)
You had a bad day

Bad Day- Daniel Powter.The video is so cute
