I made someone something.

Something very interesting happened a few months back.

I got a feedback about a friend of mine who used to be very close to me. I was told the person has changed beyond belief in a positive way. I do believe that I had a hand in remaking that person. It was such a thrilling feeling to have.

Im not on talking terms with that friend now. But the very fact that i had made a difference in someone's life was so gratifying! :-)

Delhi is Beautiful

STATUTORY WARNING - Im rambling again.

I never thought i will be saying this 3 yrs back but I love Delhi. Not because, its a beautiful city. It might be. But its for reasons that are far more experential than that!



Life is not worth living if one doesnt go through a myriad of experiences. In my 3 yrs in Delhi, I have been through all these experiences. Ive not had the very morbid ones, but yes there have been happy, pleasant, exhilarating, sad , heart-breaking, disappointing experiences. That is what makes Delhi memorable for me!


Ive met all sorts of people here. People who had come closest to me, people who have really supported me, people who had betrayed me, people who had loved me, people who loathed me and of course the people who do not even know me. [I do revel in this anonymity]. I have heard a lot of people decry Delhi for the behaviour of its populace, "too arrogant", "flashy", "shallow", "selfish", "greedy" etc. I don't know if all of this is true, it might be. But living amongst all this and surviving makes life a lot more challenging than it otherwise might have been!

Deja Vu

STATUTORY WARNING - This is my first post this year - So im gonna be rambling.
Its funny how I associate songs with moods. Some songs which i used to listen to during a certain phase of my life bring back old memories in an instant, memories ive long since forgotten.

Memories of a city ive left behind, a life ive forgotten, a crush whose face i cant remember, frustration i never voiced, a love i cant forget, bitterness that lingers...

Music is more than lyrics. Its a time capsule of emotions. Today I have been hurt, hurt very badly and the music im listening to now im sure will bring back this feeling of today. Im just gonna make sure i dont listen to my favourite songs today!! Why taint those lovely songs with such memories :-)
