But I luv winters...

The evening was warm. The chill had said its hasta-la-vista. People were out for walks. Small groups of women chit-chatting while their dogs sniffed each other. I seemed to have missed on a lot of life! Was it just the winter setting off or something inside me was getting the warmth too?! I lit a small fire in a tasla- no, not that the coldness inside me desired for more fire. This real fire was to burn some old account statements- things that were complete and some unsettled. Papers torn into the smallest bits were catching fire as though waiting since ages to get sati. Life has been lovely since a few days. A lot has been happening. I have started to sense the numerous lives around me-the holy souls. It is said that if you leant something, you try and it doesn’t work in spite of the plenteous efforts, even after giving in everything that was possible- the only solution is to unlearn it and then learn another way.

And I am half way through this two step procedure!

I've Learnt...

I've learnt that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in... ;o)

I've learnt that no matter how much I care, some people are just a**h****.

I've learnt that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.

I've learnt that you shouldn't compare yourself to others - they are more screwed up than you think.

I've learnt that you can keep vomiting long after you think you're finished.

I've learnt that we are responsible for what we do, unless we are celebrities.

I've learnt that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is atfirst, the passion fades, and there had betterbe a lot of money to take its place!

I've learnt that 99% of the time when something isn't working in your house, oneof your kids did it.

I've learnt that the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones just never go away...

Later!

‘Listen to your heart’

Often we ignore what we ‘want’ to do for what we ‘should’ do. We never know who exactly defined the ‘should’ part. Yet we keep doing it. Overlooking the ‘want’ that we (so closely) personally identify with.

Listen to your heart- even if you would go wrong-there will be a sense of satisfaction....

‘Trust your Instinct’

From- ‘should I date this person’ to ‘This guy stares at me often, in the office’; applies to all. Your instinct was developed over millions of years. It can never go wrong. You just need to identify it. So be it in any relationship, any situation if you have a ‘gut feel’ listen to it.
