Purpose of Life

“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”

Time

Time...
something we all take for granted, 
when the end is near than you realize all the things you wanted to do...
see & then just as your about to leave through one door, 
in walks love from another, 
holding you back, 
asking you to hold onto life & not give up, 
as if there is still some happiness left to be seen...
but the question remains...
is it just a mirage and a wishful thought that never was nor can be?

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched, but are felt in the heart. -Helen Keller

Insomnia kicked in and I ended up watching a movie last night till 2.30am. "Under the Tuscan sun", it was a great drama which kept me patient until the end.
So there was a scene about lady bugs,

"Listen,
when I was a little girl,
I used to spend hours
looking for ladybugs.
Finally, I'd just give up
and fall asleep in the grass.
When I woke up,
they were crawling all over me."

It was a really nice ending with loads of inspirational thoughts to tackle and grasp. I soon dozed off with the movies
eminence fresh in my mind. 6.30AM my alarm woke me up and right beside my pillow I see a lady bug crawling, middle of winter what are the chances of a lady bug coming into my room?

I jumped out of shock and I am still in denial. I can take this as a coincidence, or maybe it’s a sign.

Whatever it is, it was a good feeling. It made my day J

Loving it

hmm

Some people think it's holding on that makes one strong- sometimes it's letting go.

Why not follow our own book?

1. "Ekam evadvitiyam"
   "He is One only without a second."
   [Chandogya Upanishad 6:2:1]¹

2. "Na casya kascij janita na cadhipah."
   "Of Him there are neither parents nor lord."
   [Svetasvatara Upanishad 6:9]²

3. "Na tasya pratima asti"
   "There is no likeness of Him."
   [Svetasvatara Upanishad 4:19]³

4. The following verses from the Upanishad allude to the inability of man to imagine God in a particular form:

   "Na samdrse tisthati rupam asya, na caksusa pasyati kas canainam."

   "His form is not to be seen; no one sees Him with the eye."
   [Svetasvatara Upanishad 4:20]⁴

Yajurveda
The following verses from the Yajurveda echo a similar concept of God:

"na tasya pratima asti

1. "There is no image of Him."
   [Yajurveda 32:3]⁵

2. "shudhama poapvidham"
   "He is bodyless and pure."
   [Yajurveda 40:8]⁶

3. "Andhatama pravishanti ye asambhuti mupaste"
   "They enter darkness, those who worship the natural elements" (Air, Water, Fire, etc.). "They sink deeper in darkness, those who worship sambhuti."
   [Yajurveda 40:9]⁷

   Sambhuti means created things, for example table, chair, idol, etc.

4. The Yajurveda contains the following prayer:
   "Lead us to the good path and remove the sin that makes us stray and wander."
   [Yajurveda 40:16]⁸

So where did we go wrong? why aren't people following our religion as its supposed to be?

Frustrated

I miss my blog..i hardly get time to even look at it. grrrrr

Life is great

The roosters wake you up at 3am, 4am, 5am and so on
The food supply in the stores runs out in one day
The locals play their whinny music so loud at 1am
The sun just burns you to an extent that you end up looking a tar
The power going out is a weekly event
The amount of studying just swallows your sleep

Yet...Life is great with friends like these



Like branches of a tree we grow in different directions, yet our roots remain as one. Each of our lives will always be a special part of the other's.

**Special thanks to all those who made my birthday very memorable**

But i still hate it

Curd Rice never tasted so good in my life. Thanks to my mom who always mixed it and placed it in my plate even before i could start eating anything else. "Its a balanced well nourished food" she would say.

Now i have no choice other than looking at my plate filled with curd rice and rejoicing those moments.
Thanks to my sister who hates it too...i wish i loved that damn thing so i don't have to starve here.


**Yogurt..yes that's the American way of saying it..sounds weird..i will stick to my Desi way**

Yen jeevan...jeevan nee thane

Thookangalai thooki chendrai
ekangalai thoovi chendrai
unnai thaandi pogum pothu
veesum kaatrin veechu veru

nil endru nee sonnal
en kaalam nagarathe
nee soodum poovelam
oru bothum uthirathe
kathal yenai ketka villai

-Vaaranam Aayiram

Thanks to shiv for the songs >:D<

You know your engulphed by studying when

<> You close your eyes and all you can see is little cute cells floating around and different type muscles moving in different directions.

<> You set your alarm to get up after an hour of nap in the afternoon and you wake thinking “wow its morning already”. I don’t have to stay up all night to study.

<> You make something to eat in the very less time you get and even after realizing that it tastes like crap you put it in a box and store it for the next 3 days.

<>You keep looking at the time when someone calls and think you could have finished reading one page in these 15 minutes.

<> You look forward to sleep for those 4-5 hours.

My theory for the coming years- The more I know, the less I kill.

The worst thing someone can do is to compare food with a cadaver. "Umm that looks like chicken meat from that angle" ...Who the hell does that?

Stupid guy...ruined my appetite to eat chicken for the next month or so.

Welcome to Statia

Statia...i have never heard about this place in my life before...never imagined in my slightest of dreams that i would end up here to fulfill my dreams.

So here i am trying to figure out what to do next...what to cook next...what to study next...

Life in Statia is very simple....people are so friendly that i am scared to go out. i have to wave and say hello to everyone that walks by...doesn't matter even if its a small boy. my shoulder joints are paining right now after a 10 min walk...so imagine how many times i would have raised my arms.

Well you can chose to put your head down and pretend that you don't notice anyone...but when its time for your clinical..you have to encounter with these people to do all your tests..and these people remember your face simply because they consider you rude if you don't smile or wave at them....and who forgets rude and evil people?

Its a very beautiful island but i am afraid that i am only going to be left with memories of my dreadful studying.

Anyways you all enjoy your life and tell me about all your colorful things and i will update with all my atrocious ones.

BTW i can see the Atlantic ocean from my room...isnt that cool?


P.S- Thanks a lot for all your wishes and advice
