Life is no Mills and Boon. But, still we all, atleast most of us,strongly believe in power of love. The feeling is amazing and addictive!!
I find it strange that off-late I have heard so many around me break-up. Almost like... 2008 should become a dedicated year of break-up.
So, we sit cozy with warm, steamy cup of coffee.... for, what you may call, a chat session.
And we talk about relationships and what it takes to keep one. And time and again I come across the word "physicality".
As an Indian... earlier it would be a hesitant topic to talk about.... most uncomfortable I would say. But then I wonder why? Why the basic human instinct is so tabooed in our culture? We don't like to talk about it ... but our movies are filled with it. And not to forget we've made more than 1 billion babies!!!
Then why is it so dramatic and needs to be talked and done so clandestinely?!
Ohh well, since that's how it's been for ages... who are we to challenge it.. or should we challenge it??
This is going a little off the topic.
Well, the verdict is out ...
Intimacy is part of being in a relationship. It's a state of mind- as of one my learned friend said....
For those to do it ... are called naughty and hottie....
For those who don't .... are still nice and sweets girls!!!... But, more often than you know... that's what sweet girls are for... be DUMPED!!!

Have we learnt our lessons, yet??!
It had barely been two days after the terrorists were defeated. And Mumbai was freed. The air was filled with mixed reactions.. anger, rage, fear, hurt, tears.. tears.. and more tears.
Everyone has just one thing in mind terrorism needs to be fought against and annihilated!
I, too, feel very strongly about it. A strong rush passes through each time I see those horrific pics. These are some experience that can never be forgotten. And even worse it is for those who have experienced it first hand.
But, there was something I came across that surprised me.. shocked.. I should say.
It was a picture in a leading national newspaper. A group of VHP people burning the Pakistani flag. Shocked.. I wondered... is this how we are really planning to combat terrorism? So, violence for violence.. is that really it??
I am too dumb to understand politics... too dumb to know who did what, to whom, and when.
All I know is that RESPECT... I know respect for life. But, don't think me too naive. I am not saying that even if your life at risk, I sit there watching myself being killed. But, going out there to kill someone else because my people were killed too... is just no answer.
Our problem is not Pakistan or Pakistani.. Our problem is the mindset. It is those people who mislead innocent young people like Kasab. And to the young people... that is why you need to educate yourself!!!... EDUCATE... not just earn a degree and be called qualified.
It surprises some.. how these educated terrorist, from good institutes and family go on such wrong path. I say.. it's hardly surprising... cause a degree doesn't educate you.. it just enhances your skill and knowledge set. Education is what we really do with that knowledge and skill we gathered.
And here in lies the importance of educators!!!!
once again.. I am reminded of these line ...
Where the mind is without fear
.... and the head is held high...
where knowledge is free
... and the world is not broken into fragments
In that paradise, my father, let my country awake!!
