Text of the page (random words):
my space my space appearances are deceptive friday march 19 2021 to be grounded when i was a child i had a pretty active imagination i read a lot played with those characters in my head and when i had unstructured play time and best of all i was never lonely as i grew up this ability manifested in different ways being the ambivert i could get lost into the depths of a book the pages creating a screenplay of sorts in my mind professionally i could think of different solutions to a single problem key word is think not execute but now why is there a but the downside was that i had to struggle to concentrate on one single train of thought so as to actually take any action now this my friends was a problem why this didn t happen all the time just during those instances where i applied my mind and there was an urgency to churn out results as fast as possible my feelings were all over the map with a bit of anxiety a bit of stress some exhilaration and last but not the least nail biting tension all thrown into the mix each one trying to gain the upper hand day night with without company working at home i could be miles away my mind spinning in a million directions yes it s an exaggeration but you get the idea don t you dissecting the problem at hand and reaching for a solution some might say it s an indication of a brilliant mind i admit i a m but too much of anything is never a good thing and in this case it resulted in sleepless nights and constant fretting about the future until i joined a class of organizational behavior ob and my life changed for the better how let me explain our professor was a great orator and had an engaging personality which ob professor doesn t he always had excellent relevant feedback after grading our papers speeches he used to pair us up such that each member of our team complimented the other in terms of strengths and weaknesses and that s how i met chessplayer not his real name of course chessplayer was a brilliant guy full of fun and brimming with positive energy he always used to say life is too short to get worried about a typical live in the moment kind of guy and in contrast a brilliant chess player and he changed the course of my life through these lasting words of wisdom imagine you are on the edge of a cliff you need to be on solid ground to not die that goes without saying but you need to look around you as well because you have that vantage point in short you need to be grounded but you can still look at the horizon and take in the views around you you can either concentrate on being grounded all the time and worry about not dying or you can take in the views around you and walk straight off the cliff or you can do both the key is being grounded and that my friends is the not so secret sauce of life being grounded enables you to be firm to your principles and yet learn do a ton of things to hold on to your foundation and build more to have a start line and still have the ability to connect the dots to the finish line to be a tree that can reach into the sky but with strong firm roots to be inflexible and yet flexible to be grounded is a continuous process unto itself to be present and this my friends is something that cannot be taught by anyone except yourself you have to go through life and teach yourself every mistake every success every painstaking moment of truth so if you are grounded raise a glass you have earned every bit of it cheers published by chitra at 3 19 2021 no comments wednesday august 28 2019 son of mine sometimes the hardest effort is not enough sometimes the deepest emotion is not enough sometimes the oldest relationship is not enough sometimes the fiercest love is not enough having a child is hard enough having to compete for his affections is even harder especially when you are the bad parent the strict parent the parent with rules the parent with schedule the parent who does the grunge work like cooking meals washing clothes for the kid but hardly gets time to read stories because she is so tired the parent who is more intellectual than fun the parent who is more like a caretaker than a mother the parent who s constantly shamed into thinking that she s not good enough of an example the parent who simply doesn t know how to love in order to be loved back published by chitra at 8 28 2019 no comments thursday november 15 2012 down the memory lane one of the travails and tribulations of growing up as homo sapiens is keeping track of the innumerable email ids i have progressed to different email providers over the years and as a result keeping track of my older emails is a herculean task there have been instances where i ve forgotten that i had an email on a particular account and i open my email to belatedly realize a ton of messages from friends from the lack of my replies i am sure that they must be of the impression that 1 i am too busy to reply which is not the case since i can spare time for all my good friends 2 i no longer consider them my friends i have few friends i consider close and not keeping in touch with them is not an option today was one such occasion when i had a lot of time on my hands read i was prevaricating i opened my one of my less frequently checked email accounts and found a ton of junk mail nothing new as i dug further i came across a few exchanges among a couple of my friends precious gold nuggets as i opened and read each of them a sense of wonder filled me and a smile tugged at the corners of my mouth some serious some humorous some lamenting some cheerful some even cribbing but every single email had a strong current of humor and genuineness running through it wow i must have been an electrical engineer hoda janma to think of such a beautiful analogy p was this gregarious individual truly me as to the people who mailed me these included close friends from work from childhood from blog and even from my bus these were people who stood witness to my most happiest and depressing moments and spared some time to reach out to me to let me know that i was not alone now i have their emails some inspiring words some memorable photos as fond memories as the time i was relatively younger relatively happier and relatively care free now i have all the tools of modern times to help me keep in touch with my friends a fb account a smartphone skype google chat the only difference is that the familiar friends are missing having been caught up with life work and family not necessarily in that order do i miss them hell yeah but there s someone i miss more moi published by chitra at 11 15 2012 2 comments labels me myself and chitraaz sigh yaaron dosti wednesday july 11 2012 eega the end of imaginative cinema or not being married is not a bed of roses being married to a movie fanatic is definitely not a bed of roses day in and day out hey let s not forget the nights and weekends one is reminded that televisions exist to push men into a state of oblivion and woe betide that woman who defies this pull of attraction towards the television of course she is left to stew in her own imagination read boredom and is barred from entering some of the innermost portals of her man s mind so it comes as no surprise that after years of silent suffering hah i decided to convert a and i would at least have a common topic to talk discuss fight about and thus came the plan to see the movie eega fyi eega means fly in telugu for all those arty cinema lovers who like subtle romance or hidden meanings eega promises you absolutely nothing however for those of us who like action combined with comedy combined with all the makings of a masala movie oh let s not forget the idea of good winning over evil eega proves to be a delightful and entertaining movie the screenplay is pretty tight with very few loose gaps and yes the animation is something to write about one might wonder that there s absolute lack of facial emotions for a fly when there s nothing human to start with just a tiny face full of millions of eyes but nope all through the three hours of the movie i was enthralled along with the rest of the crowd and that included kids by all those little gestures that conveyed oh so cutely yes i repeat cutely just the right kind of emotion with every fly er hero there has to be a villain something like for every action there s an equal and opposite reaction in comes namma sudeep as namma villain and what a villain and a human one at that he is equally convincing as the both sadistic lover intent on bedding the heroine and the loony madman who s convinced that he s being stalked by no less a fly but then again i ve always loved admired his acting prowess even if it s a bit too intense in all i wasn t sure whether the idea for this movie evolved because of a complete lack of imaginative idea s or whether because there were loads in an area not yet explored or maybe it s an old wine in a new bottle a new idea which had hitherto been stale or even downright stupid now presented using the latest technology whatever the reason suresh babu the film s producer is laughing all the way to the bank and did i mention spoiler alert there i did published

but how anyone who s born a lady would surely agree with me we need someone to crib to after a hard day s work we need a space to de stress to relax and most of the times this is the form of a verbal barrage of words to someone a friend sibling mom last but not the least the spouse imagine this scene after a hard day s work you go back home no sooner than you unlock the door and cross the threshold you see your husband sitting in front of the tv engrossed in a cricket match inspired by the icc tournament p the sight of your better half galvanizes you into talking and mind you it is not about how happy you are to see him it is all about your work bad boss uncooperative colleagues hostile work environment the long hours spent in travel the general tiredness so on so forth office politics i can see most of my friends who are working vigorously nodding their heads the twist in the story is thus do you expect hubby dear to switch off the tv and listen to your rant or does he continue to watch the tv while you render a laudable imitation of a much played record the answer is the background music rising to a crescendo there s no right answer no no the crescendo is not deflating it depends it depends on the relationship and the individuals involved i am no expert in the matter of relationships however i have had my fair share of friends to whom i have been an excellent agony aunt or so i believe and yes i get to listen to a lot of complaints however i have had my fair share of confides that have been extremely positive and listening to the latter makes me think so such men really exist how much patience would that man have to listen to a whining wife all the time doesn t he have any frustrations of his own doesn t he feel that he is on the receiving end of a negative tirade all the time maybe the secret is this the relationship would have reached a level where the man feels that the positives of wifey outweigh the negatives and that includes cribbing and he is ready to believe in her and help her in any way he can and if that involves being a sounding board so be it you may have heard of the made for each other sentiment but couples are not random jigzaw puzzles to perfectly fit each other in style and temperament although rare i have seen a few exemplary couples in real life their love and respect for each other is so apparent that it makes me wonder how much time did they take to reach this level of understanding on their journey together how much time did they take to fit together is it a function of time at all or is it personalities or is it compromise questions questions questions i hope that time can answer them published by chitra at 4 06 2011 5 comments labels food for thought thursday january 27 2011 when in
