searching

Every individual,according to me is searching for something or the other.Sometimes working hard against the "odds".Every event that has to occur,will be attached with "odds".So,the one who crosses these odds wiil be successful is that what success means? or one who falls prey for these "odds" will be a failure? but still I go on persuing my dreams,may be against odds,but will I, cross or get caught in the whole web of odds,is what I have to wait and watch.

but.....the spirit and the thrill to wait and watch is what is required(thats what I believe).At the end of the day,may be I feel nice about the odds I faced rather than the final output which I usually considered as success or failure.Either ways its adventurous.

"life is always exploring the unknown,and thinking that it will be known someday".

so,I believe,be it success or failure life is life,with its vividity and profondity.

waves of life...

its so beautiful to experience different waves of life.How the mode of the mantality,thinking,priorites,the total out look towards life changes? versatality of life opens up.its so different and vivid.
all this while for me life was full of negativity,pessimism,closed doors,kind of lost attitude,haziness about the events that occured in life.i dont know ,whats the magic that took place within me,that i am feeling that life is beautiful again.
this magic is something which has rekindled my spirits.i feel the setbacks which we face in life is what makes life look beautiful.

one day trip to wayanad.

It was after, a lot of discussion we decided on a date to go to wayanad.It was ideal time to break free as my sis was done with her exams and smitha,sagar were also free.me, always free.we planned the trip on 26th january.so i had to be in mysore on 25th.my sis had already been in mysore as she had holidays.so all of them were exited about the whole trip so was i.
25th was like a warming up to the Bday.we decided to watch "silence of the lambs" one awesome movie and then went out for shopping in the evening. the whole night, we were exited about the trip .were not able to sleep.but some how managed a sleep for 5 hours i guess.
finally the day arrived all of us were quequeing up to take bath and get ready with our comfortable attire.we were ready with cameras, back packs and water.ofcourse the food department was taken care by atte and uncle.so was waiting for the vehicle to arrive.the driver arrived at the right time and the vehicle was good.very comfortable.with good music system, which fortunately could play quality music.was happy with it.smitha's friend vijetha had also joined us.she is pretty cool gal.
now "on the road in the gadi".it was 5:30 am i guess when we started to move.the morning was simply very calm and serine with its fog and beautiful sun rays trying to make their way out of that thick fog.was really amazed at the scene of country beauty.lungs got to breath some good unpolluted air.
As the dawn ended into a morning,we entered into badipur forest,we were really banking on our luck to see some animals.i think we were kind of blessed to get a glimse of the national animal TIGER.It was pretty close to the road.It was first sighted by my uncle then it was my sis who saw it.We were thrilled to see it admists the tall green grass.It was a moment.It will linger in my memories for my life time.
We were awestruck by the vehicle-less road and decided to click some snaps.Then again was on move.Came to gundlupete and got idli vada packed and were on move.We acrossed Karnataka and entered Kerala.We parked the vehicle on the road side and hogged on idli, vada.The idli was good but the quantity of chetni he had packed was less,but anyways relished the break fast.
Now we were on the way to iddakal caves.The music played was awesome.We were bangging our head to LP's music, were kind of stuck to it.As we were nearing the destination,we were over joyed and bit shocked to see this huge mountain which we had plans of climbing.Before describing about the whole trekk.some info on iddakal
iddakal:is a natural cave.Which means a single rock which is juxtaposed between the two huge rocks.one could witness the "trible art" the pictorial representation of their way of living.it was formed due to earthquake some billions of years ago.
now it was exactly 9:20 AM when we started to trekk.Initially we thought its pretty easy to make it to the top.But smitha was telling us that "its not so easy".so now we were on the move.There were lot of other people who had come to trekk,but one of the group was really very good.The land scape got tougher and thougher as we scaled the mountain.This group had some people who were listening to music and climbing with pretty ease.This was kind of encouraging.The toughest part was holding the rope and climbing to the top. (This action was tough because, loss of balance could lead serious injuries),Which none of us had done before.I must say I throughly enjoyed it.Then we were at the top of the Iddakal mountain.Looking at the picturesque of the three state borders.We were feeling as if we were on the top of the world.we took some snaps and then we had to tread our way down the hill.It was more taxing than getting up the hill(thats what i felt).We were at the peak at around 12:15 and came down at around 1:45 PM.I was dog tired and wanted to eat and then catch my breadth.
After this we had lunch and left to soochipara water falls.On the way got to see some beautifully laid out natural carpets the "tea estates".I was feeling like jumping on it and lying down on it.But anyways,I knew I could not do it though.We had to walk 2 KM down hill to get to play in water and to experience the water falls.
Believe me it was really tiring and taxing our muscles.But all of us had this zeal and enthu to get into water.My sis palyed in water untill she is satisfied.One of the best thing was parents were not around for any restriction.
The water was freezing cold but when splashed onto the face.It felt so relaxing and i was feeling the flowing water under my legs and it was one heavenly feeling. After satisfying the soul and mind we were out of water and now back "in the gadi on the road"

peep into real life

well..i would like to write on how "WE" the so called normal people of the society crib about the things which we dont have.without even understanding how it feels to be disabled???.i used to be this type of girl,who was not really interested in peoples' problems.i was caught up with my own life incidents that i hardly took notice about the various problems or set backs the society faces.
During my Pre university days i had this oppurtunity of being with mentally retarted children.when i had been to this school, i was really touched by those children.some of them elder to me..but still being like a small baby..it was really hard to digest.it was then i realised,how blessed i was.but one thing which was very evident was those children needed us. the smile on their faces,their effort to wish me HARI OM is something, which is fresh in my thoughts even today. i understood how GOD's way of making us 'normal' people be humble and kind.that was time when i decided that every individual is born with a purpose to serve which is divinely assigned by GOD himself.i never thought i would be writting this down some day.it feels nice to think about good incidents in my past.
after this i was introduced to another important issue of the society and that was AIDS and women health care.i got to know how women can become helpless and how poverty makes them do things, where they loose their lives at last.one of the most painful sutiations of life.i also was really touched by the article written in NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC magazine about this disease Tuberculosis and its spread through the "human flesh market".what can be done??? how it can be reduced??? is some of the long standing questions that has to be answered.
my ideas of doing something to the society had got to my nerves and i was putting some of my thoughts into action.like teaching some underprivilaged children.this was a task which i did with lot of interest.i asked some of the slam dwellers' kids to come over to my place,so that i could teach them some words and make them write their names.this went on for about a week or so.but what i realised was that they required money rather than any formal education.now i feel, how dumb i was :)
www.samarthanam.org
i got introduced to samarthanam in my masters and the story goes this way.
Samarthanam is one such organisation which is mainly invovled in rendering great service to blind population of India.i was introduced to Samarthanam through my very close friend Veda.if i was of some help to this organisation the credit goes to her.
i had this always on my mind to help those people who are in need of it the most.so one fine day Veda introduced me to this organisation.i spoke to the co-ordinator Mrs vijaya she is really one lady who is completely appreciated for her constant help and service to samarthanam.very simple and down to earth a lady with a mission to help the blind.i was delighted to meet her and get a insight into the lives in samarthanam.so this is how i have been introduced to lot of dark sides of life..which can be lit and made brighter and hence make a small difference to myself and the society i live in.
