Value your friends: they are precious!

Few months back, I dint knew the meaning of friends. I used to think that friends are like many other strangers whom we meet, have fun with and then, they just leave and go away and then, we meet new people and the process gets repeated again… “Friends are life”, “friends are the best thing which can happen in your life” and blah blah… these things had no meaning in my life, absolutely no meaning.
And then, I changed my job and came to a new office. Even then I thought that I will make new friends easily. And the days started passing by… a week, 15 days, a month but I wasn’t able to make such friends, such which I had in my previous company: my gang… all my buddies…
And then I started missing them, missing them terribly. Then gradually I understood the importance of friends, what they mean in one’s life! I understood that its just not possible to make friends anywhere, anytime! I actually understood the difference between acquaintances and friends. I started having a strong urge to meet them daily, to see them, to talk to them, to go out with them and to have all the fun which we used to have.
And even after 3 months in this new place, I am not able to make such friends, such a gang.
Friends are special because they love you, they care for you and whenever you need, they are there for you… They make you feel special; they make you feel as if they need you always, they make you feel important which nobody else in world can! They make you feel as if their world is incomplete without you. They take care of your each and every happiness. They know how to make you smile when you are sad, they know how to make you happy when you are depressed, they make you eat when you don’t feel like, they love you selflessly, they love you like anything!
And this is the difference between acquaintances and friends. For an acquaintance, even you are an acquaintance! Nothing more than that. They will talk to you but will surely not bother about your happiness! They will accompany you for lunch/dinner but will not bother whether you ate or not. They will ask you the reason if they see you depressed but will surely not bother to make you smile and happy.  
Friends are not made manually, they get made automatically! Believe me, you can become friends with somebody without any efforts and cannot become friends with somebody even after trying hard!
That’s the difference! Yes, friendship is precious and believe me no relationship in the world as strong as friendship. Its a relationship in which there are no expectations, there are no selfish motives, there are no self-centered objectives and yes, there are no egos! There is just.... and just love:) So, if you have true friends, you are lucky! Value them. Please do not take them for granted and do not hurt them!

Value your friends, they mean a lot…

Wear your success and confidence like a T-Shirt and not a Tuxedo!

I was reading an interview of Priyanka Chopra in one of the magazines the other day and there was one thing which she said and which captivated my mind immediately and frankly, I do not remember anything from that interview apart from that one thing! To some ques, she replied “Wear your success and confidence like a T-Shirt and not like a tuxedo!!!” Wowww… what a saying and how true… If you can carry your success in a subtle and a causal way, nothing like it… But that’s an art! Believe me! Carrying your success in a positive and a natural way is really not easy! I mean its like being flamboyant but in a natural way! But the problem here is presenting this flamboyancy into a natural way sans attitude which most of the people, unfortunately are incapable of doing! Ahhhh…. And great are the people who sometimes cross limits of showing off! They just love to show off and cant live without it: They show off their wealth, their status, their success and some people are even much horrib...

The transformation of an arranged marriage to a love one!

“If I get married, I want to be very married.”  ― Audrey Hepburn Arranged marriages: Lets look at what wikipedia says about it: Arranged marriage is a type of marital union where the bride and groom are selected by a third party rather than by each other. It was common worldwide until the 18th century. Wait a second, does that say '18th century'. Yes, it indeed does. The world has moved on, and we, Indians are stuck, stuck in between a combat. A fight of deciding where to go, which side to choose and whom to follow: our old traditional culture or the west.  Anyways, arranged marriages still accounts for an overwhelming majority of marriages that happens on our land. Though we do celebrate love, but only in movies and we are doing that since last 4 decades, but when it comes to applying it literally, it suddenly becomes a stigma! Love marriages are still considered a taboo in major parts of our society. Anyways, I am definitely not here to mak...

Dear Myntra and Flipkart, thanks for snatching away my freedom!

“I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.”  ―  Charlotte Bront├л ,  Jane Eyre I am an avid Shopaholic, a compulsive one! At times, I feel this is some kind of a disorder I am going through. The moment my salary is credited into my account, I start shopping! And within the first week, I am broke, I am left with no bones! And the rest of the month goes in waiting for the next salary! Its like my wallet has a hole. I guess it has... Anyways, boom of the online shopping sites have actually galvanised this disorder, much to my disdain. The moment I get little time in office, at home or for that matter anywhere on this planet, I just open my laptop and start browsing, drooling over the thousands and thousands of pretty shoes, dresses, accessories, just craving to see them in my wardrobe! I just always open these sites with an idea, rather a very clear one of 'window shopping' but then, in the middle I don't know wh...
