A Fine Evening

               I had just passed out of college. I had started my first job. Those days, BMTC had just introduced new Volvo AC buses. Since, I didn't know how to drive a car yet and auto was just too much to goto work. My home and office were pretty far, so I decided to travel in these Volvo buses. So I started traveling in these buses. Each morning I would leave home at 8:30 P.M and catch this bus at 8:45 A.M. I would see another girl who would come with me and travel in the same bus. 

A few days later, she came and sat next to me since there was no other seat in the bus. So we got talking. What started as a casual conversation in a bus blossomed into a beautiful friendship that we cherish till date.

So today, we caught up after two years and I must say nothing has changed. We spent a lovely evening in the park and chatted for 2.5 hours. Time flew and we had gone back in time. 

Somethings don't change and some friendships are meant to last life time! Cheers to this friendship of ours! 

A New Movie Review - Article 15

           It was movie time today. I was checking out movies to watch and of course Article 15 was the movie decided to watch. And, boy, I must say Ayushman Khurana's performance is simply amazing. 

He is an IPS Officer posted in UP. Two children are missing and a few days later they are found hung. The story revolves around unearthing what happened to the girls and where the third girl goes missing. It is an interesting movie to watch.


Rating: 4/5
Recommendation: High

For all you Ayushaman fans, this is an interesting movie to catch up with. Go watch it!

Does Real Connect fade with Time?

               It's not always that one connects with people we meet. And, yes we do come across a lot of human beings everyday, every situation and everywhere. But, those connects only happen with few people and not all. Isn't it?

Now, does time really make the connections change? Well, I would say, it doesn't. Time shouldn't matter when the connection is established it and that is how it should be. Time shouldn't change it or can it?

We meet friends after so long, but the connection, if true, doesn't change. And sometimes, you can keep meeting people often, but there would be no actual connect. Once, that person is out of sight, it's clearly out of mind. 

But the true connections are those, that don't change with time. They are meant to stay. If it changes, then not really sure if there was any connect to begin with. Think about it!!

The Lacuna is the So

             Moving Forward and Moving On - It all starts to change with just one word - 'So'. 

Whether we want to move forward or move on, it always begins with a So. How difficult is it to make that choice between two? Various factors play a role and here are a few,

1. Love fades away

2. Lack of intimacy

3. Lack of communication

4. Just doesn't stay the same with time

5. Conditioning

Being in a relationship isn't easy and it most definitely needs work from both sides. Either of them need to put that effort in to make it going. But how many really think about it? That's when the thought of either Moving Forward or Moving On arises and that's when this conversation always starts with a So. 

Think about it!

A Change to Monday Morning

         Today morning was different from the usual Monday mornings and any other mornings. My neighbor had given for Pooja at the Temple and wanted me to accompany her. So, I agreed and off we went.

We went to witness the Abhisheka for Lord Shiva at the temple. I sat there in a trance. It was done so methodically that I couldn't take my eyes away. The priest did such a splendid job that the final outcome was majestic and royal. 

The Linga looked great in all his glory. Decked in Silk - Blue, Red, Green and White colors, the idol was adorned with flowers and Rudraksh. It was an enchanting sight. I have usually seen the final outcome when I goto the temple, but today I got to see it from the scratch and I must see I was mighty impressed. 

Monday morning done so right!

A Fun Food Day

            Today we went to a fun place for lunch. It's very close to my place. The ambiance of the place is amazing, good music and good food. 

Now, coming to food, the best item that I had was - MUSELI CHAAT.  It was awesome. I loved the food. Obviously, I had to accompany it with her Lime Soda. 

It's fun to try new food and apart from this Chaat, I had an Idly Chaat (Yes, the South Indian in me stems out). 

Try some good food and get your food mood!
