Take my breath away!!!

“Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.”

I came across this quote yesterday...
Such a simple statement, but it is like a reflection of our lives.

Reading this statement, I asked myself ' how many such moments do I have in my life ?'

I could hardly think.. around 7-8 such moments.
In 23 full years ..just a merger 7-8 incidents ...isn’t it a shame...

Then i realized that life is also not about waiting for these moments to happen..
It is about making each moment a memorable one..

Leaving all of you today with this note....

Take my breath away...........
Take my breath away..........

Who moved my cheese????

Life teaches us a lesson every day. It is upon us to decide which path we have to undertake.
To learn from what life has to teach us or to just surrender in the hands of life.
There are 2 kinds of people.
- First, Who think that whatever happens in life is DESTINY and they cannot control it.
- Second, Who believe in the fact that whatever happens in life,happens for a reason. We have to learn the lesson that life has to teach us and move on...

Just wondering which category you belong to?
I definitely belong to the second one.

Few days back i read the book "Who moved my cheese?"
Its a simple, thin book. Its a story which features 2 mice 'hem' and 'haw', two "little people" 'sniff' and 'scurry', and their hunt for cheese in a maze.
With such simplicity the book tells the story about these 4 characters. How they adapt to the changes in their life(when their cheese is gone.).
Its makes one realize which one of the four characters are we?
Are you the little people 'sniff' and 'scurry' who are always active and alert,can foresee changes happening in their lives,and are prepared for them.

Are you 'Haw' who hopes for the situation to change everyday. When he sees no new cheese coming, he decides for a new cheese search. It is then that he realizes that the cheese did not disappear suddenly. It was from his continual eating which he was unable to foresee, and that eventually led to the cheese disappearing.
He realized that 'If You Do Not Change, You Can Become Extinct'. Thus he begins his new search for cheese again.
Though he is fearful of the path he has chosen, he is smiling and thinking that "When you move beyond your fear, you feel free."

Are you the 'Hem' who cannot believe the fact that his cheese has gone. He is sure that this cannot happen to him and someday he will find his cheese again. He is not letting the cheese go. He wants that cheese only.

It is for us to realize who we are, and who we want to become?

What is love???

What is love????

You wake up in the morning...and the first thing you do is think about someone...
Is that love???

In the middle of an important meeting...u just start smiling...
Is that love???

You go for a romatic movie..and you laugh and cry as if its your own story...
Is that love???

You are seeing some snaps..but you cant help focussing on just that one snap...
Is that love???

You are listening to some soft romantic music...and u cant help thinking about him...
Is that love???

When you find someone whose weirdness is compatible with yours, and you fall in mutual weirdness.
Is that love???

But their is more to love than all these...

Love is when you shed tears and u still care a lot for him....
Love is when he says he doesnt love u..still u know he does....
Love is when he ignores you...n still u are longing for his phone call...
Love is when you are happy even if he is happy with someone else...

Love is not about getting...its about giving...
Love is not about holding tight...its about letting him be free...
Love is about seeing him happy....how unhappy it makes u...
Love is unconditional....its about saying I LOVE YOU...no matter what...

Now i understand the true meaning of this quote:

If you love somebody, let them go,
for if they return, they were always yours.
And if they don't, they never were.~ Kahlil Gibran

Who am i?
A dreamer...who dreams everyday..but fears that her dreams will never come true....
A listener who listens to all her friends problem...but cannot solve her own...
A lover who wants to love more n more...but fears that her love will not be reciprocated...

Who am i??
The answers still needs to be found...

Neways..life moves on..time passes by..n we keep on disovering things about ourselves...which we knew never exsisted...
My journey has started now...
lets c wht i find out about myself....
