Sorry for the inconvenience

"..Sorry for the inconvenience Ms. Neha.. but ..
Sorry for the inconvenience... but please..
Sorry for the inconvenience..
thankyou
Sorry for the inconvenience
Bbye
Sorry for the inconvenience.."

I called up my mobile service provider's customer care for some problem.. and all I could hear in a span of 2 minutes was 'sorry for the inconvenience' atleast 15 times..lol.. looks like thats the only thing they learnt in training.. and if his saying 'sorry for the inconvenience' before every sentence wasnt so funny I would've been really bugged.. instead of trying to stop myself from laughing coz they had no idea of what to do with my inconvenience :)

horrible horrible IVR menus they have.. took me 5 min just to reach the customer care guy.. and just then the network decided to give up on me.. so i had to spend another 10 min before I could reach a human voice again..

10 years since I left school! wow.. that seems like a long time.. I suddenly feel so old :-| I wanna go back to being a kid and having all the fun that i didnt have.. Kids these days have so much more freedom.. they have so much more knowledge and awareness and they're so much more street smart.. it may be good in a way.. but they will never have that innocence.. I think our generation was the last to be the ignorant innocent generation.. internet shall ensure that the future generations are all smart and enlightened :)

I saw kaminey on the weekend. Loved it. I love the songs of the movie.. they have ben playing on my car stereo non stop for the past 2 weeks atleast.

Yesterday a traffic policeman caught 2 bikers jumping a red light, stopped them in the middle of the road. When they tried to run off, he took the bike keys and went aside..lol.. thats the only way people here can learn some rules i think.

Feeling Nostalgic :)

Suddenly feeling a little low today.. going down the memory lane.. looking at old pictures.. and i see people who are not there anymore.. they were just here sometime back.. where did they suddenly go.. it all seems like just yesterday.. yet its so far back in time..

"Aaja ki one way hai yeh zindagi ki ghadi ek hi chance hai.."

"Cause it's a bittersweet symphony this life
Trying to make ends meet, you're a slave to the money then you die..."

Two lines that are stuck in my head ever since i listened to these songs in the evening..

Desire

If you really want something, dont just dream about it.. have the courage to follow it..
is it possible though that you may want something.. yet be happy without wanting to have it, to possess it?

_____

Love possesses not nor would it be possessed;
For love is sufficient unto love.
When you love you should not say, "God is in my heart," but rather, I am in the heart of God."
And think not you can direct the course of love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course.
Love has no other desire but to fulfil itself.
But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.

Khalil Gibran on love

Life is a funny game. Most of the times you dont know what you want. Then you finally figure out something to get.. You get it, and then you dont want it anymore.. you move on to wanting something else.. chasing dreams..always.. never being satisfied with what you have.

__________

The best way to avoid thinking is to stay busy.
