What was so good about today?

We all have those moments in our lives, when we think nothing good in happening to us. The boss is not happy, the family is not happy, even it seems, your pet is not happy.

THe moments when you think that you do not deserve to be treated in such lowly manner, and that you are not being loved at all. It happens to everyone. The interenet not working, running out of petrol at the last moment, just when you had to attend a crucial meeting, the gas cylinder empty when you have to cook a meal for ten…

Ok, now that you get my point of what really is a low day, I thought of a plan to turn it around. Everyday, when you go to bed, just think of what good happened that day. Something. One thing that was really really good. That made you laugh, that made you smile or that atleast made your heart smile.

It could be the appointment letter you had been waiting for, the casual glance from the girl/guy of your dreams, the divine pieces of a black forest cake, the way your baby or your neighbor’s baby for that matter choked you with his baby talk. The sight of the sun bird as it gathered nectar from the flowers or the pat on the back given by collegues or better your boss!

Go to sleep with that thought and wake up with that thought. If not anything it will help you get a good night’s sleep on a bad day. If not anything you will think, something good happened after all.
I believe, in each one of our lives there is something good happening, every day, all the time and this new year let’s find out..what’s so good about today.

A Thought to Brittany Murphy

Just the other day I was watching a movie called Love and other disasters and I really liked the petite actress who emoted as well as she looked. I did not know then that she was Brittany Murphy and that she had acted in the films like Clueless and Girl Interrupted.

I especially liked her eyes that seemed to say so much with their depth and with the way they made you feel the emotion in spite of no words spoken.

Brittany Murphy was just 32, and she had a cardiac arrest on 20th December. An actress about whom I had waited till the end titles of the movie, to know her name, and whose forthcoming movies I was really looking forward to watching, was gone.

It is sad, just like the death of all those who die young and their life seems like an unfinished tale. But I think atleast with actors; they have the amazing movies they worked in, that keep them alive and their memories alive in people’s mind.

Interestingly they also seem to transcend the boundaries of life and death and find brand new fans whenever someone watches their act in movies. I have experienced that with Heath Ledger, another great actor whom we lost a bit too early. I saw his movies recently and was awed at the guy’s capabilities of portraying Casanova and a knight and the famous joker. I became his fan too..a little late but surely.

Brittany Murphy, I am sure therefore, will live. Everytime someone watches….they’ll know of this talented lady and praise her skills. So she may have lost her life, but will live in our memories.

Here is her Biography

One dark day awakens India.

India witnessed one of the most lurid terrorist act a year ago. The whole country was shocked, shattered and felt helpless in the hands of ten men who made some very prominent places of mumbai their terror ground.

 A year later, yes, there are hundreds who have lost their dear ones, many who will never be able to walk, shake hands, or be able to feel safe among strangers. But what has been the biggest outcome of this horrendous crime has been the way Indians have bonded like never before.

We love our country more that ever now, because we know in matter of seconds things that we take for granted can just be massacred and snatched away from us. We sincerely feel like changing the system, we have renewed our confidence in our leaders and we know the power lies within us to make a difference in our neighborhood, society and country.

Terrorists struck our motherland to terrorise but they never knew that, that dark day in the history of India would awaken a nation and its people to become stronger and act like one force.

To take on every challenge…we are one India.

पानी बचाओ

यदि आप और हम इन पांच मुदों पर अमल करें तो हर वर्ष 40,000 लीटर पाने अकेले बचा सकते हैं।

1. उन नलो के मुरम्म्त जल्द से जल्द करवा लीजिए जिनमे से पानी रिसता हो । जिस नल मे से एक मिनट मे 15 बूदें गिरती है, वह नल एक दिन मे 24 लीटर पाने बर्बाद कर देता है यानी एक वर्ष मे 7500 लीटर पानी बर्बाद हो जाता है। प्लमबर को बुला कर नल की मुरम्मत करवा लेना पानी के इस बर्बाद के मुकाबले कई गुणा सस्ता पड्ता है।

2. कोल्ड डिंक की बोतल मे रेत भर कर उसे फ्लश टेंक मे डाल दें। इस तरह जब भी आप फ्लश टेंक का इस्तेमाल करेंगे एक लीटर पानी बचाएगें। इस तरह आप एक दिन मे 2 लीटर और साल मे लगभग 750 लीटर पानी बचा सकेंगे।

3. फ्लश टेंक ऐसा खरीदें जिसमे से जरुरत के हिसाब से कम या ज्यादा पानी निकाले। इस तरह आप एक दिन मे लगभग 9 लीटर यानी साल भर मे लगभग 3000 लीटर पानी बचाएगें।

4. शावर के बजाए बाल्टी से पाने ले कर नहाएं। इस तरह आप दिन मे 70 लीटर और साल भर मे लगभग 30,000 लीटर पाने बचाएगें।

5. दांत घिसते समय या दाडी बनाते समय नल चालू न रखें । इस तरह आप दिन मे 7 लीटर और साल भर मे 2500 लीटर पानी बचाएगें ।

इस तरह पांच आदमी मिल कर हर वर्ष 2 लाख लीटर पानी बचा सकते हैं
