Chennai and me

Sometimes! you will never know that the place you are heading to will be your favorite place in your lifetime. My first visit to Chennai, the Madraspattinam had nothing special to make a bond between me and the city. In fact, i hate the place then. When i reached Egmore, i felt i was forced into a city of robbers, the city of pollution, the city of sun in all seasons, the city of traffic... i saw robbers in every head that moved in the platform and in every strange looks... the coolies, the railway employees, the vendors, even the passengers! and no maters where they are from. I was not aware then that the day gonna be a memorable day. yeah! the bond between me and the city started there...

My first day in the city drove me to experience the hell. That was another fresh new day for Chennai. The station was busy but i was busy guarding my baggage. The road outside the station was more crowded than inside the station. People rushing to their destinations for their work. People! people! people! everywhere... in buses, tea stalls, telephone booths, hotels and everywhere...
Everything and anything about chennai made me mad then... the crowded buses, the hot sun, the humidity that brings out the human sweat, the traffic, signals, noise and air pollution, strange people, worst roads, those colored faces of politicians on walls, those people urinating on corner walls, language/slang...
i was heading back from Chennai, i decided not to visit Chennai in my life again... not even for a day!
But today! After 8 full years... i feel i can't be out of Chennai for a day, not even for a day! Chennai is now my best place on earth. The city of beach that wakes up for coffee, the beach, the people, the travel in sub urban trains, the crowds, buses, flyovers, statues of leaders, theaters, malls, the seasonal rains, the temples and churches, aroma of coffee, pallavaram mount, burger man's burger, sweet pongal at murugan idly, landmark and food court at spencer plaza, music world, tambaram station, aazraya, Chennai sangamam etc etc etc... many sweet experiences,memorable too and few bitter...

Some taught me about life... in a line - Chennai changed my life...

i was planning to write about Chennai and i start from here today!... I will write more about chennai, my experience here, memorable incidence, people and all about chennai!

they will follow this post soon with hope that you will enjoy :)

The trip to nowhere

I switched on the fan, closing my door, lying on my bed ... i felt exhausted... I felt the tired, the defeat. I closed my eyes tight and i saw darkness, empty and nothing... i closed my ears with my fingers and heard nothing... not even the silence... i felt am out of the world... the world without light, sound and full of nothing... i traveled through it for sometime... enjoying nothing... i gave up and return when i felt that bored... my fingers out of my ears and my eyes opened slowly...
i saw the ceiling fan running at same speed, fast, making sounds like, yeah like fan... i haven't heard the sound anywhere else!... i looked at it till i get bored and i heard nothing except the sound of fan... yeah... everything else were silent!! I moved my eye lids to look at my window... i saw the curtain dancing... dancing for the silence?! but they were beautiful... and the sunlight through the window played hide and seek and the curtain continued dancing... i don't know when... my eyes closed, they made their decision, my ears stopped listening to the surrounding, even to the silence... again i traveled through a dark world, am not sure... may be empty world in black color without any sounds... i felt the peace, satisfaction... i enjoyed the trip... till am back from my sleep... "sleeping"... the best gift

Welcome 2010

The last day of the year, 2009.
The Table calender on my side table says...


"Everything will be okay in the end. If it is not okay, then it is not the end"!!!


This is not the right end for my year, but time waits for who?!. The year is ending today.
Okay okay, let me be positive... The YEAR is STARTING tomorrow.
I wish 2010 should be a positive year and i should enjoy every minutes given by The Almighty. And about resolution, huff! the list will be long enough. The one tops the list is to stop expecting and next in the list are to be positive every minute and to spend maximum of my time alone to know me more... the list continues...
OOPS!!! Am i EXPECTING a change in me?! well, am still in the last day of the year... so i can expect today but not from tomorrow. Yeah, i won't from tomorrow.

so everyone...
Wish u HAPPY NEW YEAR, Enjoy the year... every minute... time waits for none :)

Faith

He and She entered the church with more faith than ever in their life. They are in love for long time but that was the first time they prayed together in church with more hope, more faith, more love and more fear.
Kneeling, folding the hands and closing the eyes she started to talk to Jesus... "Jesus! Thanks for everything that You did for me, Thanks for carrying my sins and sorry too. Guard me from evil and direct me to happiness...
Bless my parents and elders, ... thus the list of requests started and .. and.. and.. continued...
everyone should be happy and bless them for the same... and continued... my love who is near me, I love him more, bless us to be together all through the life, with more love, more care, more faith and more happiness... Answer his prayers too... Amen".

Kneeling, folding his hands and closing the eyes he started to pray... " Dear Lord! the girl with me, I love her more than my life, Make her wishes come true, answer her prayers... that is all i need... Amen"... He finished his prayer in short and opened his eyes like a new man and started to enjoy the beauty of his girl praying to God, under the beam of sun rays than passed through the aisle windows, that makes scene of God blessing her... He enjoyed seeing her lips whispering the prayer in the yellow hue from the hundreds of candles which glowed the faith of caring and loving hearts.

PS. I never prayed to God with whole the heart. I know my mom pray for me and for everyone. Its always She who caries he in herself, she know what he wants.

And thanks Nisha for the picture from ur photography album :)

The 12th day of every november is the start of the new year for me. My 25th birthday, is now a memorable day ever in my life with a bunch of surprises ... i can say, the 12th day of nov 2009 came as the end for my long waiting(s), it answered many of my questions.
The special cake, the special gifts( of course its surprise! too), blessings from families, mobile beeping whole the day with wishes from friends, calls singing wishes ( am sure, this is my first birthday with loads and loads of wishes into my bag), and memorable dinner,...... each and every minutes on this birthday had something new to me.
