Love

Disclaimer : All written below is mine and only mine - not stolen from anywhere - my own perspective.

A fact that exists since the universe got created and that would never die - Love may not be defined in simple words or one sentence. The very few lucky people on the holy earth, who have felt love, know that the extraordinary feeling of being in it, or surrounded by it, is sweet, intense and is comparable to nothing else in the whole world !

Love of a mother is considered the greatest of all, as it is unconditional. Mother's love has no bounds.

My outlook towards love : Love is not weak - it always talks the truth. All truth relies on trust and love cannot exist without truth. The ones in love, don't need to hide from anybody, because there's truth all around them. It makes us stronger, to be able to withstand storms, hardships of life, which common man easily can get caught in. I consider myself lucky that I got the privilege of being in love in this life (and I'm still into it :-) )

An easy way to allow love to exist and bloom, is to create truth around oneself. Truth provides strength and creates a fertile and firm foundation for love to sprout. Let the truth prevail.

I had written a poem on Poetry.com and this looks like an appropriate place to share it too :

A desire to touch ... NO IT IS NOT
A desire to meet ... MAY BE
When you have more dreams and less sleep ... YES IT IS
When your heart starts talking to you, like you never knew it
could ... YES IT IS
When you feel for no known reason - the whole world woke up
with you, the sun rose for you, the flowers bloom for you,
the birds chirp for you ... YES IT IS
When you feel funny in belly ... YES IT IS
When you suddenly smile alone, at odd times ... YES IT IS
When you like someone for oneself, not one's physique
YES IT IS
When you wish to take away one's sorrows and provide every happy
moment that can be ... YES IT IS
When you wish to just BE with someone till eternity ... YES IT IS
It's a miracle to be through this and Yes my dear, ONE SENTENCE
CANNOT EXPLAIN LOVE

Music of the night : Golmaal (2006) - title song - quite light-heartedly sung by Anushka Manchandani, Vishal Dadlani ; Music : by Vishal-Shekhar ; a foot thumper song you can not stop humming, if you once listen to it with enough Bass

Keywords ... are they key ?


I'm writing about keywords, with keywords, for more keywords :-) Keywords are the key to writing & earning a hit from a visitor ! That one hit makes me write about keywords. Let's start putting it in easier language. Keywords are the words which we try to search things with - not just on internet, but anywhere.



How do we understand keywords ?
Let's say we want some footwear for tennis - how'd we like to search / ask in stores ? "Do you carry shoes ?", "Do you have tennis shoes ?", "Are these for tennis ?" , "What kind of sports this footwear can be worn for ?" ..... . Do we notice some words repeat in common questions about the thing we are trying to search ? Shoes, tennis, footwear, sports <-- these are the keywords ! And that's what we do when we search on Amazon, or e-Bay right ? Type shoes - you'll get 999999 results ; type "sports shoes" - we'd get 9999 results ; type "tennis shoes" - we will get 99 results ; type "tennis shoes newyork" - we will get 9 results ;



What's that makes a keyword or a combination of them special ?
The specificity of keywords narrows down our search & makes lives easier. If we went to ask for shoes in a auto care center, would we get them ? Well, some worn out ones ;-) It's a good way to first start on a broader range - like a mall (for internet search, say "shoes"), then drill down to sports shops ("sports shoes"), then keep narrowing ...


Why are the keywords important ?
If a seller could guess common / obvious terms for the items he sells, he could use it in his banners, advertisements in news paper, TV, radio and any other means of publicity. This way, whenever some searches for that stuff, he / she would remember that special stuff more strongly than others. Half of the sale is complete right here !

Do you have any ideas about keywords ? Well , share it with the world !

Saving Private Ryan

One of the greatest World WAR 2 movies made ... Tom hanks at his best ... directed by Steven Speilberg (he directed his 1st movie at the age of 14) !
This movie is about values, lives, war, emotions, blood, courage, duty, respect - based on a true story. A group of soldiers at war in europe, got a new assignment - to save Private Ryan, whom they neither have seen nor know. Nobody knows where he is - just unknowingly dropped far away somewhere . His other 3 brothers had already died in the war at different places & saving him is the last chance of saving their mother from some grief & the army would not have to inform about the death of all 4 brothers. A movie well directed, acted - witty use of sound & music - worth collecting.
My learning from this gripping masterpiece : Earn your life ... Know your motivators ...

Music of the night : Humse rahoge kya hamesha khafa (Movie : Aur Pyar Ho Gaya ; Sung by : Sonu Nigam ; One of the excellent songs of this movie - a great work with music, rhythm, lyrics. Very lively song)

Mmmmmm Hmmmmm :-)

Q. How do they express doubt in asylums ?
A. Are you sane ?

Music of the night : Jaana, zindagi se na jaana (Album : Star ; Sung by : Nazia Hassan, Zohaib Hassan ; A melodiously sung lounge-like song. I used to watch the video in childhood & loved it since then)

The little one of squirrel

Have you seen a young squirrel ? I came across one yesterday & wondered how I never thought that I had never seen one earlier ! If I see it next time, I'll sure take a picture & post here :-) Till then, this picture found on the net may do : squirrel picture

I realized we can sometimes ignore small stuff in life & keep looking for bigger ones ! It's well said - when posisble, stop to smell the roses. Bliss lies around all of us - it's just waiting to be discovered !

Music of the night : I'm in love (Movie : Neal'nNikki, Genre : Hindi - love, Sung by : Sonu Nigam, Mahalakshmi Iyer, Clinton, Dominique Cerejo, Music by : Salim-Sulaiman) - a sweetly composed song, well sung, nicely filled up by music. Few other songs of this movie are also very good - one of them is the title song.

You can stay in abundance

There're no problems, there's only resistance :-) I learnt this in my Ninjitsu classes too - go with the flow. If somebody is trying to push you, get pushed - use his energy to make him weak. Thus, you won't need to push back hard to get ahead :-) If you're going to get hit, move along the direction of the hit. You'll need very less energy to tackle the hit then ! Seems simple, and takes a lot of practice . When we start learning to go with our feelings, go with the surroundings & avoid any resistance, we can live in real abundance. Acheiving anything would be possible. Just stop thinking about any defeciency that keeps you from your goal.

Check it out - Abundance course !

**Music is enjoyed by appreciation, not judgement.
Choices change, however likes don't **

How to impress men / women

How to impress people ? I'm not talking about faking, but something that really comes out of your heart. Writing creates an impressive effect which very few techniques can do. Write on a leaf with silver pen, or a hand-made paper sprayed with their favorite perfume & give it in a small mud-pot ! Let us see if you can impress your loved one :-) I wrote few lines for my wife :

I wish you always sleep like a baby
Have dreams of money & fame, Wake up happy & feel rich, Not be shaken by the miniature deterrents around you, dance around & do what you want, again to sleep like my baby tonight
