Finlly!!!OSCAR to Mr."Y dnt y fix ur country?" team

And finally, v can celebrate...a movie wit Indian smell nd sweat nd dirt got Oscars...

half a century back, sme lady, who s so worried abt our dirty country wrote a buk"Mother India", wch even Gandhi described as a drain inspectors account. Then there was City of Joy, to show d world, how much filth nd shit, happen to b n Indian slums. nd finally our own White Tiger, abt the corrupted, disintegrated India.

When white worried ppl cme here to see d India realities, a begging crowd ll attack them, like flies stickin to jack fruit. nd Mr.Danny Boyle ended up in thinkin, India s full of beggers or ppl who manufacture beggers.

Is it just a coincidence that White Tiger won Booker and SDM got Oscar, almost d same period?

Is it high time for all dese outsiders, who contributed as much as dey can in makin a country called India, and the NRIs who never wanna cme back, should stop worrying abt d dirty nd ugly slum called India?

JAI HO...cheers

Being a Woman

I am a woman;
I fear d darkness,
Wail for d weak,
I laugh and Cry

I dnt hve a logic,
nd reason to explain
y love/pain/hardness and happiness exists

And I dream, when i m awake
bcoz I live, when I am alive

a Woman, is being a rain drop
kissing d sands, nt knwing fr wht
bt to vanish; forever.

r U Happy?

No one seems to b happy here; s dere really a feeling called happiness which exists?

One s nt happy she couldnt get d one she luved, and other bcoz she s nt sure, she could luv d one she got.

Men around, unhappy bcoz he thnks, he s nt earning enough; bcoz he dnt hve a girl frnd.

Couples bcoz dey r nt satified, singles bcoz dey r single.

R u happy with life?

Ten Commandments to deal with Indian Bureaucracy

Planning is all abt getting d right information,right time. All these years i hve to deal with the huge machinery of Indian Bureaucracy;here is a compilation of my experiences; quick guide fr dose who need it:
1. If u hve a feeling called self respect, leave it outside d door of a govt office. Tht s nt d rite place to nurture it.
2. Practice callin every one, frm sweeper to peon to d top lvl officer, "Sir". I heard sme whr it s a title given by British King, bt here v ppl hve d opportunity to use it as frequently as needed.
3. If u r wrkin sme whr, pls apply for a leave fr 4-5 days(need nt b continuous) to get thngs done.
4. a very nice officer told me he dnt wnt my help (i m doin my thesis on a govt system- unfortunately), since their institution can deal wit there own matters. And remeber, he said dis about managing waste in Indian Railways!!!
5. Dnt thnk tht d only job of dese ppl is to deal wit us, d commons.NO, NEVER!!!!. they may hve meetings (one particular P.A, evn said her boss will b n meeting fr d next one week), nd even dept sponsored cricket matches to attend.
6. This s d most important point- Start creating networks of contacts, as much as possible. Tht is d only thng tht ll help u, witout contacts, u r nt evn worth a dirt under his shoes
7. Practice yoga evry day, never get agitated or irritated by all dese, bcoz dis s d system, and u hve to change urself to deal wit it.
8. There s sme thng called levels n evry govt system, dnt thnk tht one lvl ppl r sympathetic to d higher or lower lvl. Try to understand who s n wch lvl nd b careful whn u mention dis
9. If u r a female, believe dere s sme advantage. Smile always, nd laugh at dere jokes and enquire abt dere family matters(depends on situation)
10. Whn u cme back home, take a bath and sleep, dnt try to remeber hw ws ur day.

Evry Day s gr8!!, beautiful, as ever

wHat he Said!!

..There is sme thng within me impelling me to cry out my agony. I hve known exactly wht it is. That sme thng in me, wch never deceives me tell nw, " you hve to stand against d whole world, although u may hve to stand alone, u hve to stare d world n d face although the world may look at u wit bloodshot eyes. Do not fear. Trust tht lil' thng in u wch resides in the heart and says, Forsake friends, wife all; But testify to that for which u hve lived and for which you have to die"

Gandhi
