Actually am so surprised to be writing here today coz i felt i would never be visiting my blog anymore after i wrote my first one...and the reason am back here..hmmm..ofcourse...surely for a happy reason coz i was orally tagged to write 10 honest things about myself !!! May be someone wants to know lil' more about me in a honest way !!! :) But 10.. if it got to be so really honest i think i will have more things to write.. Ok let me pick a few very Honest ones.. but that too might exceed 10.. Ofcourse doesnt mean that am tooooo much of a honest person..its all about being HONEST n writing them down.. and am doing it for tht sweet person who had asked me to :) Hmmm Okay.
#1. During my childhood days (till my age of 5 or so) i never use to be away from my mom even for few minutes..Literally.. Seems my dad use to call me 'Amma Gondhu'.. (Glued to Mother)
#2. I hated going to school(Ofcourse NOT due to #1). Reason- I kind of felt it was a Kingdom of Partiality, the one who is bright, always stays bright and liked. The dull ones become more dull and often ignored.
#3. Point #2 justifies that i had never been so bright in studies, Whatever i have learnt in my life and whtever i am today, i owe it to my Parents and NOT to my teachings at school (Except for the basics).
#4.I just cant have Spicy food... My taste preference- Nothing thts spicy, anything thts sweet..
#5. Am scared of Ghosts (If any exists).. So horror movies are a big NO NO.. even though they are just movies.
#6. I have always felt so proud of being born in the month of May, to be a Taurean.
#7. I have had 'n' number of crushes in my life...
#8. I have done petty crimes like flicking things from shops very occasionally during my school days. Luckily have escaped every other time.. Thinking of it even now sends a shiver down my spine..
#9. Most of the situations i face in my life, i try my best to give only the Practical thought to the situation.
#10. I miss my Dad so much.
This is nice..so let me be lil' more honest.... :)
#11.Am a strong believer in GOD. (Lord Krishna, Allah, and Jesus Christ are my fav)
#12. Dont know suddenly some feeling inside me has made me give a little more serious thought about my future...
#13. I really really have a very bad memory..
Oh freak, i had it in my memory tht it shouldnt cross over 10 points.. So bad is my memory.... Anyways let it be 10+3 honest things about myself.. 13 is not unlucky for all... ;)
There ends the limited version.. :)

Luck by Chance or Lucky by Birth-
Luck by Chance or Lucky by birth!!!
How else can I start my blog other than starting from things happening in my real life? Everybody likes to go back in memory and dig out something and put them in words… so do I and here it goes…
These are the few situations and instances which came across in my life and which keep ringing in my thoughts every time something really good happens in my so called ‘Blessed life’. The basic question is ‘what did I do to be so blessed?’ So far, for the past 25 yrs, be it my childhood days or teenage or the adulthood…everything was pre-written so well that whatever good happened, it was on its own and I was sole-fully responsible for what ever made me feel bad. Thinking of those things today, it keeps teaching me only one thing again and again- In life, everything is Pre-written and nothing can be re-written.
I wonder, is it so easy to put the blame on bad luck for the losses one has and same way is it so simple to put the pride on blessings for the good things. This thought jus never gets out of mind…Taking few things that I notice every-day, being a regular user of public transport, I come across so many people struggling so much in life. From the servant maid who sweeps every morning to few of my co-passengers like the vegetable vendor, a few homeless people, the daily wage laborer, a lady selling flowers, Ofcourse everyone has something or the other to worry about. But the point is who worries for what and how much. Knowingly or unknowingly my mind starts comparing each other’s life and sometimes even mine if they happen to be of same age group… what have I got that they don’t have and what all they have got that I don’t have.. the query seems to be so stupid and simple. Is the difference just the way of life they chose to live, the one different from my life or is it by Luck I have got what they don’t have and they have got what I don’t hold? On the other hand I also come across people who just like to have everything best in their lives and leave certain things in the back seat to get whatever they desire. And these are just the opposite of whomever I mentioned above…a Successful businessman, few software geniuses, a lot of happy-go-luckiest and few other who had luxury to choose their own path to fulfill their dreams and be successful too.. One does not have much to compare themselves with this category of living, since that always ends up in the form of jealousy or hatred (That’s my Personal Opinion on human mind) The major difference in these two categories is that, the later many times get whatever they want, but the former most of the time don’t even get what they need..
This strongly makes me feel that there is just a small very thin line of difference in being Blessed and being Lucky. The Blessed one gets what he/she needs and leads a contented life, and the one who fetch whatever he/she wants leads a Lucky life… It can also be put this way, the Blessed ones happen to consider life, Luck by chance and the lucky ones continue to remain Lucky by birth…..
