Strength of a Woman - Happy Women's Day :-)

Shaggy's Strength of a Woman - This is for all the women........who are very special in their very own way!!

This one goes out to all my women you know

My strong women, ugh

So amazing how this world was made

I wonder if GOD is a woman

The gift of life astounds me till this day

I give it up for the woman

She's the constant wind that fills my sail

Oh that woman

With her smile and her style,my

She'll protect like a child

That's a woman

She'll put a smile upon your face

And take you to that (ah) higher place

So don't you under estimate

The strength of a woman

The strength of a woman

Woke up this morning

I got up with the scent of a woman

Just picture if you could what life would be

Ain't much good without a woman

She can nag and be a constant pain

Oh that woman

But those hips she's got me whipped

And it's just to hard to resist

What a woman

Ugh, hey

Tender lips that's so so sweet

Gentle words she softly speaks

Such an angel when we need

GOD bless the ground beneath her feet

She can take you on a high

Be your comfort when you cry

But if you look into her eyes

You'll see the strength of a woman

Strength of a woman

Ugh, ugh, ugh

Strength of a woman :-) :-)

Life...sometimes!

Life is an art,
We need to master it,
Our life- our Canvas
We paint it, we draw things
We use colors, we keep it blank
At times we are at ease, at times a think tank.

Life is a Riddle,
The more we look for solutions,
The more we complicate it.
The less we learn to worry,
The more we accept it.
At times, its pink & rosy, at times we add grey to it.

Life sets you apart,
Tries you, Breaks you and acts smart,
Life – a challenge, a fight.
Let not move the focus and the sight
Even when there is no light,
Smile a lot and think bright
Shine & show as you never feared
Life is all about smiles & cheers :-)

Make a Noise!

Oh! My Life….Lets Rehearse a song!
Mix the music of triumph
Stand - up & straight
Rub your eyes & get ready for the chase
Make a noise – let others hear!

Let others worry, you walk ahead
Discern the unnecessary concerns
Follow your dreams, have faith
Allow to go down, the chaotic fears
Make a noise – let others hear!

Ignore those, who stop you!
Disappear from them, who raise a brow
Stand sound with your plans
Behold your confidence, don’t let it end
Until your belief is set apart
Trust your instincts & work smart
Make a noise – let others hear

Let us rehearse a song!
Mix the music of triumph
Let’s make a noise – to be heard.

I have been feeling a little low....but then after writing the above piece I realised - When going gets tough, tough goes for an inspiration ;-)

Bygones be Bygones..

At the outset of New Year, I have been wondering about the year gone. Saying that, suddenly the one liner knocked in my mind which goes like – ‘If you are still thinking about yesterday, you have not done much today’. And quite aptly, it says it all. I haven’t done much in the year gone by. I mean there are some lacunae that trouble me.

I may have positively brought in a difference to the lives of few closed ones. But I have not actually excelled and the grown as a professional. Blame it on the unnecessary thoughts and the frivolous tension which I allow my brain to ponder over & worry – but I have lost a lot of time. May be the idea of doing things in sync with all and doing them, the way I want created some ruckus.

The year gone by left me confused, indecisive at lot of times. And may be some bad luck prevailed on the work front. Loosing must have been lot easier this year then sustaining. But the good news is – I dint compromised with life. I lived it. And the spirit if living left me with some great moments, fewer achievements and some quieter moments to cherish.

Writing surely is one thing which suffered, I guess it got ignored big time. But honestly, bad concentration was the problem. I was kind of into too many things which worked well and shall fetch some good credits in the coming months. But that’s what is been attempted – results are awaited and the risk percentage is just too high. Also this year we had another transition in place and we moved to Gurgaon from Chandigarh. We truly miss the city b’ful.

One of the good things which happened this year is 30TH FEB. Yes that’s the name of my venture. I launched it on November 17th, 2009. Though it’s in the struggle phase, it could come out well – is truly an achievement. Finally, I could bring out my ideas on a website and could talk about it so clearly.

Though things are moving slow but I could sense some movement. So I would say that by the end of 2009 and the outset of 2010 – Aaal iz Well!

Have a Sparkling 2010. Spread more smiles!

30TH FEB - A Dream Chase!

I am talking about my entrepreneurial dream which is now a year old and tomorrow it marks the one month of its launch. 30th Feb Obviously Different Ideaz, that’s the name to my attempt, my venture. You can explore further at http://www.30thfeb.com/

Decision –
Yes, it had been a difficult decision with tempting jobs & hefty package offers alluring you to go back to the corporate world. Today I think that would have been easy. I did considered all these options with pros & cons of both. If one gives you independence to work other gives you independence to spend. In a job, you have a routine & hence daily timelines where as you ought to think & mentally work for almost 24 hours a day because the work is not just a job but it gives you the encouragement to excel & follow your dream. It was a tough one but I decided to go on…….yeah some people were there to stand behind me. And I am thankful to God, for they are still confident about the whole thingy.

Idea –
Servicing & selling ideas in an organized & planned effort. Creating brands and beautifying the existing ones with strategy, design & equity. To build a name & a team, this shall be synonym for Brand Ideas & Brand Concepts. 30th Feb is an effort which orients towards making small brands – Big and we make the big ones- even bigger!

Tomorrow i.e., 17th December, 2009 will mark one month of this decision of mine. Yeah, it has been difficult with almost 2 offers falling in place for what we say – a good job. And it has been difficult by acknowledging the start-up issues, the lacunae and the bad attempts. But aren’t the difficulties made to make easy. I am working for it.

Have a good day :-)

To Err is Human. To Run is Crime.

Today morning when I was on the way to work, I witnessed an incident. It was bad enough that I could not throw the thoughts out which are actually now becoming shallow in my mind & heart.

Our car was nearly 500 meters way when I saw that a Car stopped for a fraction of a minute and zoomed quickly. The sound directed me to the scene and as I saw the car roving, I noticed that there was kid of approximately aged 8-10 on the road crying helplessly signaling his right arm is in deep pain. While I was disturbed and reached closer, a man rushed towards him, he probably knew the kid (may be they were from one of the families staying at the roadside) and took him. We felt so helpless and void inside. At one point during those rush of events…I felt ashamed of being human thinking if it’s we-the human beings then who else shall take the responsibility. But I am sure, whoever that gentleman was, he/she would never be able to get out of this guilt of not hitting the one but from being running from there.

I just pray to God, for the little kid. May he be blessed with good health always.

Complicated!

The denseness in relationships, an intricate state of mind is what could be called as a perfect Complicated Life. There is lot to understand in the otherwise simplest statement I just made.

I always knew about me being complicated! I don’t know but I guess it was the onus of being good. When I say being good, I mean a good daughter, a good sister, a good wife, a good daughter-in-law, a good host, a good friend – no I guess those who stand by me – never bother about me being good or bad, Ah! just realized I have been ‘me’ at certain occasions. Anyways, the benefit of living with the onus of being good is that you never get carried away and you learn to self-restrict. Its like how could I?

Aren’t the words getting complicated? I say so, because I came back to this page after almost an hour after I finished the above paragraph. I have a loss of words. I am worried. Its not usual………I normally finish up my write-ups. I feel I am confused with my words & state of mind. Does this happen to you as well?

But yes, we were talking about the benefits of living with the onus of being good. Hey! What about the drawbacks….many of them. You always keep a part of you closed which shall be unearthed but you die waiting for the right time, right place & may be right people. You always carry this notion – that there is something which people don’t understand or may be something which you want them to listen & understand. You die with a heavy heart because there was so much to say for which you never managed to get an ear for. So many…so sad!

Anyways………I would end it up with what I always believed is the truth at the end of the day. Life is Beautiful. It’s either us or the situations which are complicated!
