T is for Thank You

Despite all its ups and downs, life is beautiful. I have my own set of blessings despite some of the curses that surround me; blessings in form of people, places, things and most importantly the feeling of being blessed. No wonder there are many things in life I am thankful for as of now.

I am thankful for ~                                                                                                                         

  • A job that pays me decently.
  • A chance to prove myself and take one step towards my long cherished dream.
  • A handful of loved ones and friends who believe in me and love me unconditionally despite all the flaws I have.
  • A healthy life. (Touchwood!!!)
  • Some wonderful people who read all that I write and encourage me to continue doing so in the form of lovely comments.
  • The dreams in my eyes for when everything else seems unclear they show the way ahead under their shining light.
  • The ability to make a difference in few lives by nothing except loving and caring. 
  • Though 2012 did not end on a high with me underachieving some of my targets, this year does seem promising ahead with things improving with every passing day.  
  • The hope that is eternally present in my heart for things to get better and better and better and better.  
  • I am able to chase my passion wholeheartedly. (Though sometimes it chases me if I avoid it for a long time ;) )

Books on Cinema

For a long time, cinema was a world I wasn’t allowed to enter. I grew up in a home where movies were banned. No television, no glimpses of silver screens, and no songs echoing from old classics. For nearly a decade, cinema was a forbidden word like a secret behind a closed door.  And yet, like all things that carry truth and longing, it found its way to me. Stories have a way of finding you, slipping through cracks, whispered between pages, caught in melodies. Sometimes through the corners of borrowed books, sometimes through whispered summaries from classmates, sometimes just through the magnetic pull of posters and songs I wasn’t supposed to hear. 

Book Review: The Ultimate Reality by Gian Kumar (Book 3)

Introduction ISIN: 978-93-52013-74-6 Genre:  Non-fiction / Self help Publishers:  Celestial Books (Leadstart Corp) Price:  Rs. 199/- (  I got the book from the publisher for a review ) In this third book, the author Gian Kumar has ventured into experiential awareness. His earlier books had shown that in spite of material and digital comforts in the world today, we are still living a life of dualities. Happiness-unhappiness, good-bad, God-devil, all exist side by side. Following spiritual teachings of gurus or masters do not give the much needed solace; there still seems to be something missing. The mind, with its constant chatter and habit of delving into past experiences and anxieties about the future, does not allow to live in the present moment and be aware in the 'now'.
