Lost!

I seem to have lost a lot of things lately. My iPod and a pair of amazing expensive headphones just got added to that list. Its strange how throughout life I have lost keys a zillion times. But every single time the keys just returned and came back to me. I am a very optimistic person and believe I will get back what I lost. I wish the whole - "If you love somebody set it free, if it comes back it is yours, if it does not, it never was" holds true for my priced possessions too;-) Cos after all I did pay for them and they were truly mine!

On a parallel note I totally believe the Sri Ram Sena is the answer to all of us single folk! I mean come on, what the shaadi.coms and match makers of the world were not able to do, this man intends to in one day! The dude clearly suffers an "attention seeking disorder" and possibly just decided to become a national icon overnight. It amazes me how innovative people get in the Indian political landscape and how much we just jokingly laugh at our plight. After all we really have nothing else to do. But it just reflects a pathetic mindset and makes me wonder- "Where ever is freedom?" But all of you who had trouble with parents approving wedlock with a loved one, go ahead hold hands in public and hope that haldi-kumkum comes your way!

Just a short update. I gotta now go watch "lost"! Seasons 5 is airing finally.

Where goes my day?

Heaps of thoughts dashing past. Everyday I wake up in the morning with a smile assuming my day would be relaxed and I will get down to doing all things on my pending list and being super efficient I might even get to my wish list! I just need to check my mails and before I realise it, the day is half past. The evening goes by and what I am left with is a larger pending list and a unreachable wish list! I am sure there are a zillion books on time management, life management, self management and whatever else. But I realized that its not about management it is really about what I am able to resist, what I am able to say no to and what is my priority. Anyways I guess I am getting a little better, trying to fit in a run every evening, writing a blog once in a while and getting back to watching movies as always. My pending list for today reads...

Think...
Wait...
Converse...
E-mail...
Call...
Sleep...

My wishlist for the day actually was

Movies and Books

Watched a few movies that I thought I should jot down before I forget:

Children of Heaven: (Bachecha-Ye-Aasmaan - Iranian)

Beautiful movie, simple story that shows the intricacies of a lovely relationship between a brother and sister. Touches your heart with some brilliant moments. A movie, I will not forget, a movie that changed my perception of Iranian movies.

Mithya: One time watch. Loved Ranvir Shorey for his performance.

La Buche: A French movie which unfolds a family past, revealing insights into fidelity and the concept of a family. It is a Satire which is nicely done and yet again I think that the French just see life with such a different perspective. Refreshing movie.

Books I Read:

• White Tiger
  
• Manto Ki Kahaniyan(Hindi)

Both were a good Sunday catch.
