Life is a Roller Coaster!!!:P

Indeed it is! I mean sometimes life take us on the seventh sky from where everything looks so small and sometimes life throw us so deep that nothing is visible. This situation is more or less like a roller coaster or may be worse than that! huhhh???
Infact, I sometimes wonder why do some people pay to get a ride in a roller coaster! I mean when you are coming down from the topmost, it just get the shit out of you. Right?? It causes so much stress that you almost feel that you got a heart attack… And you actually pay for this stress!!! Obviously there would be some pleasure in it otherwise all the amusement parks would have got shut down till now, if it was all about pain and stress
Then why do we get paniced in the life’s rollercoaster and that too when it is free!!! Shouldn’t we enjoy it? Shouldn’t we get that same hidden pleasure even in these rides? We should. But we tend to get panic because these rides are uncalled for; we are actually not prepared for these rides. While on contrary on a real roller coaster, when its about to go up, we get prepared and when its about to go down, we close our eyes or do something else to ignore the stress and just to enjoy it.  And I guess this is the only difference between a real rather visible roller coaster and a life’s roller coaster. In the former one, we are aware of whats gonna happen next while in the later one we are not! But then isn’t later one better as its full of surprisesJ and who doesn't love surprises?
I am writing this post as even I am riding a hard and a fast roller coaster these days! Sometimes, I am Up in the sky and then, second moment I am down, where I can only see darkness, pain and I start feeling that I am a loser! Its not that I have not faced this situation before but just that this time its different in few aspects. Firstly, this time there is no time gap between the ups and downs. Its just so fast… Secondly, this time I feel as if I am riding more than one roller coaster simultaneously at one go. And all of them takes me up at the same time and brings me down at the same time which is so tiring and sometimes, frustrating!
Initially, I became extremely frustrated, upset and irritated by all this! But now, I have found out the formula to deal with it.
Its simple!
When you are Up, cherish the moments, enjoy them to the fullest but do not forget that this ride will also go down… so prepare yourself for it at the earliest
And when you are down, try to be happy and tell yourself that ‘A ride cannot remain down forever. It has to go up according to Nature’s law, trend (whatever word you use)’ so wait for that moment. Its something which is much more than just being hopeful. I mean here you have 100% certainty that this roller coaster will take you up at any cost. Sometimes, gradually: at a snail’s pace and at other times, so rapidly that this transition becomes difficult to believe…
So, this is what I am doing these days to deal with all the rides I am riding at one goJJJ

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 Brontë ,  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...

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...

Can you? Will you?

“People don’t like love, they like that flittery flirty feeling. They don’t love love - love is sacrificial, love is ferocious, it’s not emotive. Our culture doesn’t love love, it loves the idea of love. It wants the emotion without paying anything for it." ―  Matt Chandler Probably this is true and I actually believe in it very strongly. It's not love what people look out for - its jus that infatuation, those butterflies in the stomach, that excitement, that thrill, that desperation, that anticipation. Actually more than half of the love stories meet an unpleasant and terrible end, the moment all this enthusiasm and drama is gone from a relationship. Sad! but true. We no more (not generalizing), have those 'forever' happy afters. We no more have those relationships with the promise of being together for 7 births.  We don't even understand this word we use so frequently, called ‘Love’... its just not an emotion, its just not a feeling. It's beyond t...
