The Princess In Me : )


While the all famous line goes as-“ It’s really difficult to understand girls. You never know what they are up to.”
True it is. Sometimes, I don’t even understand a single word I said or rather sometimes it’s tough to explain others what I need to say. Not that my communication skill has degraded but sometimes, I wish there were people who understood my silence. Most of us wish so. 

When I enter my home after a long tiring day-Mom understands the silence and doesn’t query. Rather there would be a glass of cold water to make me calm down, forget whole “Terrible” thing about the day. Instead when  I reach home after a long journey, if only my bro is home-he won’t even admire my presence, leave alone the water thing. That has happened all through these years and is a habit now.  Although I know, he cares enough as seen from his viewpoint. He cares when my exams were on my head and he knew that his sister is so busy watching television that she has skipped her chapters  J. He cares when he knows I might not pass in a particular test and waits for my result as he waits for his. I, on the other hand, woke up at 6 am on his CBSE result and slept again before he told me his result as he already explained each and every question to me and I was so sure of his result. Though the anxiety and expectations are always high.
Suddenly talking about my family, I didn’t think to write over this. My hands just did so. May be September always makes me miss them more.

Talking about the silence to be understood, there have been infinite instances in anyone’s life where their silence has been misunderstood. I have friends who are actually great at being silent. They don’t make fuss of a thing, remain calm during each situation and are great. 
When I tried to do the same –
1.I n School- they called me Geek. I was a T.V. freak though.

2. In College- They (N-11) knew I was going mad and crazy inside and thus, there was always get together in my room –(Courtesy Apoorva Sogani, Khushboo Sinha, Ratika Talwar, Manisha Sangwan and Pooja Bharagav, Akanksha Saxena,EC-batch and everyone who knew me well)  And the topic of discussion was –How to torture me. They used to torture-still do the same-take out all the secrets and then would ask me to IGNORE J And, it was always worked.
3. At Office- Have been extra silent during training. Most people noticed as they knew the reason behind. Have started mingling up. I wonder people might tag me as weird in days to come.

Just a few instances of being misunderstood or well understood. Obviously, we cannt make everyone understand . So, Let it go.

The thing is each one of us (Talking about girls in general, I have no idea about guys,they are weird perhaps-NO OFFENCE) wants to have friends, soul mate and family who understands them, make them feel valuable, admire them, forgets their mistakes or loves them inspite of the weird person they are. 

I have always loved “Jab We Met” as I could always find the Perfect guy in Aditya and Miss imperfect in Geet. Kareena was awesome in the movie I would say. The blabbering  which sounded funny, makes you smile and a few dialogues which makes you ponder-“ Tum toh bahut serious the na life main…”.

Probably, everyone of us seeks for a perfect life patner.  
Probably, there are only a few lucky ones who find one.
Probably, there are a few who find but are never able to say so or recognize it.
Sometimes, all we need is a person who listens to our non stop talks, makes sense out of nowhere, knows the difference between your happy and sad voice,knows the innocent person behind you and the bitchy one too and probably is there for you during your most critical times.

All you need is a little courage to understand what your heart wants you to follow. To be true enough, I still don't know it. Perhaps, I'm more dependent on my destiny now.But, somewhere deep down-I still believe in those fairy tales which said-"Mr. Perfect/Prince Charming" exists.

Perhaps, every girl believes herself to be a Princess. At least, I do!!!! 

9/11



How a tremendously large city which is famous for its life,show and pomp suddenly is on fire. 9/11 is not just about the loss of glory but it's a tremendous loss of lives,innocent souls and the trust of being safe.


Its 9/11 year after year and it completes a decade. Still nothing fades away, though it isn't visible.
I still recall, I was in 7th Standard and the big news of 9/11 attack was flashing all over the television.The biggest and the most vital attacks ever. It's 10 years and whenever I sit back and think-I'm horrified at the pain, agony and loneliness of those who lost  their loved ones.

Although it seemed like another Sunday to me! But, somewhere deep down, we all know it's a BLACK DAY.Hope the people who lost their lives RIP and may their loved ones have the patience to bear the pain and move on.

9/11 definitely changed so many lives, shocked so many and terrorized everyone.Who knows the next lane I'm walking is safe or not. Probably " A Wednesday "  was made recognizing this fear.
Let us all fight this fear.
Amen

Little did I know !!
