Eat, Pray, Love.

I think a lot, I have known this from a long time now and every time I think, I know something more.
Well, you must be thinking that from my previous line I must be trying to send a message that I am a great thinker. Oh no, no no no. I am just another hyperactive kid who has to has something to do all the time and when I don't have anything to do I think. But then I think, that all those great thinkers must also be some hyperactive kids, otherwise how could there thinking be so refined, so ahead of their time as if they have thought of all the things again and again, till they couldn't take it anymore and they had to burp it all out to someone. ;-)

Well, so why am I saying all this..and why this post has this weird title. No, I am not writing another review about the movie as it might be very late now for that. There are dozens of review about that movie online. So, if by chance you wandered off here, wondering you might get something about that movie, you are in a very wrong place.

But, this post has something to do with the movie as the thoughts started pouring in my mind only after watching that movie (Yes, I watched it, but only coz there was nothing else on television which I hadn't already seen).

So, coming back to my post, the movie made me think about a really weird topic: LOVE.
Now, I know boys don't talk about it yada yada yada, but this boy has something to say about it, and in all possibilities this is another rational look over the IRRATIONAL state of mind called LOVE.

Yes, according to me Love is a state of mind and the better term for it is SELFLESSNESS. How come, you ask and I say: well it only when we stop thinking about ourselves are we truly able to think about somebody else and that is love. That somebody else can be anyone or any no. of people or even something much more abstract like GOD. For eg: a mother not thinking about her health and making 3 breakfasts everyday coz her two sons and husband all have different timing to go for school/work. But then, You say, if love is so divine, why do most of love marriages end up in divorces??? Well the answer can be very philosophical, but in short, that is coz most of the people don't love the other, they love themselves i.e. a selfish love and not a selfless love. Scratching our brains are we, well here is the philosophy. Well, for most of us adolescent is a difficult time of life. So many different hormones raging through body creating a lot of confusion and no one really to answer all the questions you have. This creates an identity crisis and we search the reason of our existence. All of us deal with these questions in a different way, some take the mischievous path, some accept and make latest trends and some become nerds. But, when we find a person who likes us, we actually satisfy our ego. We make our brain think that he/she is the answer to all your questions and we start loving ourselves even more, all the while thinking that this feel good factor is coz we love someone else and someone else loves us. And when things change a little bit, our love doesn't we still continue loving ourselves and that is when dreams are shattered and relationships are broken and "love" fails.
Then why, you ask again, a mother who loves you selflessly, doesn't understand you loving a girl/ boy who is not of her choice and why someone's mother does that, while somebody else's is very fine with watever relationship their kids are into. Well, the answer is pretty simple, " Everyone needs love". So, when one mother doesn't like her kid getting married without her consent and the other mom is cool with it, check how much they are being loved. In high, probability all the mothers that don't allow you had given their love for you and weren't getting anything in return, so they wait for a long time time and expect your love in form of obedience. While the others that do allow, must be loved by those who are close o them and so they don't need your love that much and they can allow you to love someone else. If you are wondering that you loved your mom enough and still she has some problems, well it might be just because that she thinks that the love that was for her is being shared with someone else. And hence the reason..

Well this was from my side, it was a pleasure writing again after a long time...

Thank you for having so much patience to read till the end. Till next time..EAT PRAY LOVE.

New Blog

I have written some blogs, all related to the marketing subject area. But I always wanted to write more, coz as a person you make views on many things, almost everything. And I believe Every one's way of looking @life is different from the others.
What I believe to be true, to be good, might not even be acceptable to others. And hence the name, grey shades because the entity [entity being anything with unique attributes(I am in an IT company and this is inevitable)] under discussion might mean different to different people.

For eg., One of my professor, likes TATA Industries very much and is a fan of their honesty, way of working and believes any TATA company to be the place to work while another guest faculty worships RELIANCE and his idol was Mr. Dhiru Bhai Ambani, and he said that it was not important what means did Mr. Dhiru Bhai Ambani adopt to succeed, the important thing was that he was successful and that was all mattered.

Similarly, if there are any readers to this blog who will read the blog further, might disagree with what I write, but don't take it personally coz, as my BOSS says, whatever I am speaking is my perception of what things are and how they should be, but reality might be completely different.

Now, you might ask if I write my perceptions on this blog why am I asking you guys to read, well there are 3 reasons:
1) When I write something and you don't feel that is write than you can always comment and show me the other side of coin
2) Even thinking of this gave me a new topic for blog on my other marketing blog, which is http://ajaysfunda.blogspot.com/, if you have not read that, do check it out it is as bad as this one.
3) Everyone does that. A girl started writing about her sexual fantasies and she became a hit, she got to publish a book, and in Movie Baghbaan, Amitabh Bachhan use to write a diary and on that a book was published, so I am hopeful that it might happen to me one day. ;)

So, with these hopes I have started writing the blog and started sharing my ideas on a public forum. If you like it, please write, if don't, write for sure. I won't stop writing or something but I would surely stop hoping about any of my books getting published or a movie being released.

Well, I have written enough for the introduction blog... you guys must be getting bored. Signing off for now..

Adios Amigos....

Hasta La Vista.....
