Another Day in Paradise... Phil Collins...
She calls out to the man on the street
"Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep
Is there somewhere you can tell me?"
He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
He starts to whistle as he crosses the street
She's embarrassed to be there
Oh, think twice, it's just another day for
For you and me in paradise
Oh, think twice, it's just another day
For you, you and me in paradise
Just think about it
She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she's been cryin'
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
She can't walk but she's tryin'
Oh, just think twice, it's just another day
For you and me in paradise
Oh, yes think twice, it's just another day
For you, you and me in paradise
Just think about it, just think about it
Oh Lord, is there nothing more anybody can do?
Oh Lord, there must be something you can say
You can tell by the lines on her face
You can see that she's been there
Probably been moved on from every place
'Cause she didn't fit in there
Oh, yes think twice, it's just another day
For you and me in paradise
Oh, yes think twice, it's just another day
For you, you and me in paradise
Just think about it, just think about it
It's just another day
For you and me in paradise
It's just another day
For you and me in paradise
"Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep
Is there somewhere you can tell me?"
He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
He starts to whistle as he crosses the street
She's embarrassed to be there
Oh, think twice, it's just another day for

Oh, think twice, it's just another day

Groovy Kind of Love.... Phil Collins...
When I'm feeling blue
All I have to do
Is take a look at you
Then I'm not so blue
When you're close to me
I can feel you heart beat
I can hear you breathing
In my ear
Wouldn't you agree?
Baby, you and me got a groovy kind of love
Any time you want to
You can turn me on to
Anything you want to
Any time at all
When I kiss your lips
Ooh, I start to shiver
Can't control the quivering inside
Wouldn't you agree?
Baby, you and me got a groovy kind of love
Ooh
When I'm feeling blue
All I have to do
Is take a look at you
Then I'm not so blue
When I'm in your arms
Nothing seems to matter
My whole world can shatter
I don't care
Wouldn't you agree?
Baby, you and me got a groovy kind of love
All I have to do
Is take a look at you
Then I'm not so blue
When you're close to me
I can feel you heart beat
I can hear you breathing
In my ear
Wouldn't you agree?
Baby, you and me got a groovy kind of love
Any time you want to
You can turn me on to
Anything you want to
Any time at all
When I kiss your lips
Ooh, I start to shiver
Can't control the quivering inside
Wouldn't you agree?
Baby, you and me got a groovy kind of love
Ooh
When I'm feeling blue
All I have to do
Is take a look at you
Then I'm not so blue

Baby, you and me got a groovy kind of love
Vision...
At 1.21 billion people, India's population is 2nd in the world. Every day around 82000 new babies are born. Every day around 64000 people die in India.
The total blind population of India is approximately 16 million. If each of the 64000 who die everyday donate their eyes, in 250 days, India can become a nation with everyone who has the vision.
Donate eyes. It's an invaluable gift.

Do you believe in life after love...
No matter how hard I try
You keep pushing me aside
And I can't break through
There's no talking to you
It's so sad that you're leaving
It takes time to believe it
But after all is said and done
You're gonna be the lonely one, oh
Do you believe in life after love
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough now,
Do you believe in life after love
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough now
What am I supposed to do
Sit around and wait for you
Well I can't do that
And there's no turning back
I need time to move on
I need love to feel strong
'Cause I've had time to think it through
And maybe I'm too good for you, oh
Do you believe in life after love
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough, no
Do you believe in life after love
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough, no
Well I know that I'll get through this
'Cause I know that I am strong
And I don't need you anymore
No, I don't need you anymore
Oh, I don't need you anymore
No, I don't need you anymore
Do you believe in life after love
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough, no
Do you believe in life after love
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough, no
Do you believe in life after love
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough, no
Do you believe in life after love
I can feel something inside me say
I really don't think you're strong enough, no (fade)
Kehte hain waqt har zakhm bhula deta hai, par kuch rishtey aise hain jahan waqt ke saath saath har zakhm aur bhi gehra ho jaata hai...aur bhi gehra...~Dev Saran (SRK) in KANK~
KANK, my absolutely most favorite relationship catalyst ever, love the songs 'n the movie but more than everything else I love the honesty with no cliché’s whatsoever.
The most defining moment for me in the film is when in the final moments before he dies, Amitabh gently encourages Rani to walk out on her husband, Abhishek.
Mohabbat aur Maut, dono bin bulaye mehmaan hote hain…

Koi Ye Kaise Bataye ke Woh Tanha Kyun Hai
Song: Koi Ye Kaise Bataye ke Woh Tanha Kyun Hai
Movie: Arth
Singer: Jagjit Singh
Koi ye kaise bataye ke woh tanha kyun hai
Woh jo apna tha wahi aur kisi ka kyun hai
Ye hi duniya hai to phir aisi ye duniya kyun hai
Ye hi hota hai to aakhir ye hi hota kyun hai
Ek zara haath bada de to pakad le daaman
Uske seene mein sam jaayein hamari dhadkan
Itni kurbat hai to faasla itna kyun hai
Dil-e-barbaad se nikla nahin ab tak koi
Ek loote ghar pe diya karta hai dastak koi
Aas jo toot gayi phir se bandhata kyun hai
Tum masrat ka kaho ya gham ka rista
Kehte hai pyaar ka rishta hai janam ka rishta
Hai janam ka jo ye rishta badalta kyun hai

Kehte hain waqt har zakhm bhula deta hai, par kuch rishtey aise hain jahan waqt ke saath saath har zakhm aur bhi gehra ho jaata hai...aur bhi gehra...~Dev Saran (SRK) in KANK~
I love to love my dreams... I hate to hate my dreams... probably I carry a strange love-hate relationship with the dreams... sometimes they make me, sometimes they break me... sometimes I make 'em, sometimes I break 'em... ironically despite muling over it a zillion times, I still don't know if this unending cycle breaks me as much as it makes me or it makes me as much as it breaks me... same pinch or same pinch...
Sans a mind, I am bad business for psychics...
Statutory Disclaimer: The caution sign on me, Handle With Care, is more for ya'r benefit than mine 'coz I am not fragile but I certainly am dangerous...
Rationalizing with people who confuse fire in the belly with chilies in the stomach is a futility of exercise...

... taufiiq hai ya khuda ne mehfil mein ek naya lateefa sunaya hai...
... sookhe patte ko ishq ki aandhi mein phir dubaara nachaya hai...
... sookhe patte ko ishq ki aandhi mein phir dubaara nachaya hai...
... just when I believed, I had gone absolutely deaf...
... whispers of love have breached the silence again...

Every moment that I've lived is an event 'coz these in it's entirety 'n it's fraction have made me feel alive even when I would've gladly or sadly died... Everybody I have met is a teacher of a sorts since they have taught me one lesson or the other, sometimes consciously 'n at other times unawares... Loki is Lucky...

Make or break, am willing to stake...
Sharing an anecdote I had read 'n which stayed with the insane along with several other inanes...
A reporter covering a bumper crop yield of a fertile zone meets a farmer leisurely smoking a hookah in his empty field...
The reporter wondered, "Sir, seems ya sold all grain stock, did ya sow maize"...
'n the farmer replied, "No, I didn't, I calculated the excessive rains may damage the harvest"...
The reporter checked again, "In that case sir, did ya put in the rice crop, plantation of which requires excess of water"...
'n the farmer replied, "No, I didn't, I feared what if it didn't rain much"...
Bemused, the reporter asks again, "so sir, what did ya sow"...
'n the farmer replied, "Nothing, I just played safe..."

Love is...
Love is craving for someone 24x7 yet not even for a moment actually miss being with each other, 'coz no matter what, they are always 'n forever together, in heart, in thoughts 'n in spirit; Love is needing someone desperately until death yet never a shred of insecurity, not an iota of doubt ever creeps in even if the lovers don't meet for long since they both realize the next meeting is only a heartbeat away.

Love... Kal, Aaj, Kal...
kal nasoor hua tha aaj
ek zakhm ke chalte
aaqabat phir sanvar gayi
ek marham ke lagte
In another life on an evening of gray,
Said the angel, who I bowed to pray,
Emotions must die as a matter of fact,
Love to un-love is a journey sans a tact.
Now in the present from Almighty,
Another being is becoming a deity,
Trusting the touch, I believe the word,
Salvage to nirvana in a turnaround unheard.

Am rejoicing India's win; yet wonder why we, the Indians, aren't gracious in losses 'n humble in victory; why every lost match means unending choicest abuses hurled at our players 'n every win an authority to extend same abuses on the losing opponents...
"IF"... ~Rudyard Kipling~
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream–and not make dreams your master,
If you can think–and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings–nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And–which is more–you'll be a Man, my son!

10 things to learn from Japanese...
1. THE CALM
Not a single visual of chest-beating or wild grief. Sorrow itself has been elevated.
2. THE DIGNITY
Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a crude gesture.
3. THE ABILITY
The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didn't fall.
4. THE GRACE
People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody could get something.
5. THE ORDER
No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just understanding.
6. THE SACRIFICE
Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors. How will they ever be repaid?
7. THE TENDERNESS
Restaurants cut prices. An unguarded ATM is left alone. The strong cared for the weak.
8. THE TRAINING
The old and the children, everyone knew exactly what to do. And they did just that.
9. THE MEDIA
They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No silly reporters. Only calm reportage.
10. THE CONSCIENCE
When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly.

Fly high... Amen!!!
~ From the Book "Why walk when you can fly" ~
Once there was a king who received a gift of two magnificent falcons from Arabia. They were peregrine falcons, the most beautiful birds he had ever seen. He gave the precious birds to his head falconer to be trained.
Months passed 'n one day the head falconer informed the king that though one of the falcons was flying majestically, soaring high in the sky, the other bird had not moved from its branch since the day it had arrived.
The king summoned healers and sorcerers from all the land to tend to the falcon, but no one could make the bird fly. He presented the task to the member of his court, but the next day, the king saw through the palace window that the bird had still not moved from its perch.
Having tried everything else, the king thought to himself, "Maybe I need someone more familiar with the countryside to understand the nature of this problem."
So he cried out to his court, "Go and get a farmer."
In the morning, the king was thrilled to see the falcon soaring high above the palace gardens. He said to his court, "Bring me the doer of this miracle."
The court quickly located the farmer, who came and stood before the king. The king asked him, "How did you make the falcon fly?"
With his head bowed, the farmer said to the king, " It was very easy, your highness. I simply cut the branch where the bird was sitting."
We are all made to fly ~ to realize our incredible potential as human beings ~ But instead of doing that, we sit on our branches, clinging to the things that are familiar to us. The possibilities are endless, but for most of us, they remain undiscovered. We conform to the familiar, the comfortable, the mundane. So for the most part, our lives are mediocre instead of exciting, thrilling and fulfilling. So let us learn to destroy the branch of fear we cling to and free ourselves to the glory of flight.
Live as if you were to die tomorrow & learn as if you were to live forever ...

Sands of time...
samajh ke sehra, hawaon ne koshish mitaane ki jo nishaan/sangmarmar pe naqshi, woh ibaarat waqt ne tabaahi hai
the desert storms erase something temporary, but an insane moment can cause brutal fatality in destroying something eternal
tum kabr khodo thodi aur, zyada main bhi girrta hoon/jannat se dojakh tak waqt ne saath khoob nibhaya hai
alas! the sands of time have witnessed both my zenith as well my nadir

Hey, saw you online so wanted to ask you about your opinion on the debate going on in the chat room right now. Do you also feel what I said was wrong?
By the way, my name is Tina. Come to MSN if you want to be my friend.
Love Tina.

2nd MAY
Neel read the personal message over and over again. It was past midnight but he was still awake. This was the first time in weeks that it was not pain but excitement that had kept him up. He could not wait for Tina to come online. She would be his first online friend.
Okay, she was online now.
Tina: Hey dude.
Neel: Hey.
Tina: Thanks for supporting me in the chat room yesterday. I didn't mean to hurt or insult anyone but just had to say what I felt. It was not my fault that people got so defensive. Anyways…
Neel: You know, people get defensive when they know that they are in the wrong but don't want to admit it. By the way, how come you're up so late?
Tina: I'm studying. My A levels are going on.
Neel: You are in school?
Tina: Yup, 6th form.
Neel: I see. Got to go. Bye.
Tina: Bye.

Tina: Hey Neel. Why did you leave so abruptly yesterday?
Neel: You want the truth?
Tina: Yes.
Neel: Umm…….I'm 28.
Tina: Oh!
Neel: Well?
Tina: Well what?
Neel: Does it matter that I am 11 years older than you?
Tina: Nah.
Neel: So – still friends?
Tina: Of course.
Neel: Okay, got to go now. The old hag is here to give me my sponge.
Tina: Hag? Sponge?
Neel: Will tell you tomorrow.
Tina: Bye. Catch you tomorrow.
Neel: Yup.
__________________________________________
4th MAY
Tina: So what do you do apart from chatting?
Neel: I was a pilot.
Tina: OMG! You're a pilot?
Neel: I said I WAS.
Tina: ?????
Neel: I met with an accident about three months back.
Tina: Oh, I'm sorry.
Neel: Don't be.
Tina: Now I get it – the old hag and the sponge….
Neel: Yup. Now you know why I'm always online – I have no life, no future.
Tina: Why this pessimism? Are you bedridden?
Neel: No, I will be able to walk eventually, but I cannot fly an aircraft again. Can't even play football ever again. You see, my knee was completely smashed in the accident.
Tina: At least you are not handicapped. There are so many things you can still do.
Neel: You don't understand. Flying was my life.
Tina: So? It's best to accept what life throws at you, with a smile.
Neel: What do YOU know about life? You are still in school. You haven't even seen life. You have no idea what it is like to be in so much pain that you pass out. Do you know what it is like to be in constant pain 24 hours a day, 7 days a week? And no amount of painkillers can dull that pain. Do you know what it is to lie in bed all day when previously you had spent every single waking moment on the move?
Neel angrily logs out.

Tina: Are you still mad at me?
Neel: No. My temper comes down even faster than it goes up.
Tina: Well, you were right. After all I'm just 17. I have yet to see the world. In my entire life of 17 years, 4 months and 26 days, I have never been depressed. All my problems are taken care of by my parents. I have a wonderful supportive family with no deaths or divorces. So who am I…?
Neel: Hey, stop this emotional nonsense. You know you're far more mature than your years.
Tina: Am I?
Neel: Aren't you?

Tina: Yippee, exams are finally over.
Neel: Cool! So now you're free to party all day.
Tina: No, now I have to work doubly hard to win the Jane Austen scholarship. I hope to become a scribe one day. Then I wouldn't have to live on my parents' money. It feels terrible. I'm 17.5, yet have not earned a penny in my life.
Neel: So you want to be a writer? Interesting.
Tina: Yes. I want to create a character that will outlive me.

7th MAY
Tina: It must have been something flying a plane! I've never even driven a car.
Neel: It was mind-blowing. Absolutely exhilarating. Flying through those clouds – touching the very gates of heaven. I felt as though I was God Himself, looking down on his creation.
Tina: Tell me something, but first promise me that you won't get upset this time.
Neel: I promise.
Tina: Got any passion other than flying?
Neel: Nope.
Tina: No, seriously?
Neel: Well, now and then I do enjoy playing computer games.
Tina: There you go. Why don't you do a computer course? Become an IT professional or something?
Neel: You mean go back to school at this age? You got to be kidding.
Tina: There is no age for learning. I would rather be dead than stop learni
Neel: Yes, my guru.
Tina: So will you at least think about it?
Neel: Yes guru.

8th MAY
Tina: So what have you decided?
Neel: That Twilight is way better than Madagascar 2.
Tina: Not that stupid. I am talking about the course.
Neel: I've decided not to. I left college seven years ago. It's impossible to go back.
Tina: Join an adult or home study programme.
Neel: Nope, it won't work.
__________________________________________
10th MAY
Neel: Where were you yesterday? Angry with me?
Tina: No. What you do with your life is none of my business. I'd gone to the cinema to see Assassination of Jesse James. You can't imagine how GOOD Brad Pitt looked! I had an idiotic grin plastered on my face throughout the movie. Oh my God, I'm still reeling under the effect. Don't I sound like a gone case?
Neel: Tell me, are you pretty?
Tina: Well, I guess, umm, that's what people say.
Neel: What do you look like? Is your hair short or long?
Tina: Does it matter?
Neel: Nope.
Tina: Have you seen Black?
Neel: Nope, I'm not a movie buff.
Tina: Go and see it. If the heroine of that movie, who is deaf, dumb and blind, can do her graduation, I don't see why you can't.
__________________________________________
11th MAY
Neel: I have some news.
Tina: You've decided to do the course.
Neel: Gosh, you can even read my mind now. Yup, I've decided to give it a shot and all because of you.
Tina: I'm flattered.
__________________________________________
12th MAY
Neel: Hey, where have you been all day? I wanted to tell you that my plaster's being cut tomorrow. We're gonna party all night.
Tina: Oh cool, have fun.
Neel: Won't you dance with me?
Tina: Silly, don't you know I can't dance?
Neel: Why not? I'll teach you. Seriously, if we meet one day, I'll take you to the most happening disco in town.
Tina: That can never happen, Neel. I am paralysed waist down.
Neel stared at the screen. It was past midnight. The only sound he could hear was the tap - DRIP DRIP DRIP….as the words slowly sunk in.

Saturday morning.
Rahul was at the wheel of his car and waiting. His wife had stepped off to buy something for Rahul's older brother.
Saturday morning.
November and its first chills were setting in.
While randomly looking out, Rahul's gaze settled on an old woman's face. She may have been in her late 60's, small, slender. Her grey hair in a bun, in a yellow saree, a small purse clutched in her hand, and a cloth bag on her shoulder.
Probably she was a Bengali, as the locality was home to many of them.
A lined, expressive face, with eyes which seemed to have seen a great deal.
Rahul was a traveler, and was used to observing people. She was patiently waiting for the traffic to pass.
In the time it takes for a heartbeat to pulse, or a nerve ending to beat, Rahul suddenly knew who it was.
His childhood friend Ranjan's mother!
Rushing out, he walked up to her and stammered, "Mrs. Banerjee... I mean Sharmila Aunty... It's me, Rahul..."
She turned. Those expressive eyes scanned his face. Then that radiant smile which lit up a whole room appeared. Her hand gently came up and stroked his face, "Beta Rahul... Is it really you? How many years has it been?"
"Ranjan?"... "Uncle?"..., Rahul asked...
"Ranjan? In America. New York. Didn't you know?"
Guiltily he realized he had lost touch.
And Uncle?
That was the only time, that radiance dimmed a little.
"He passed away. 6 years ago"
"Oh I am so sorry", was all that came out.
"It's ok Rahul, he was ready to go. But you please come home. Remember those chops you boys liked so much? I can make them for you again".
Suddenly, Rahul's phone rang. His wife calling him. Quietly, she said, "ok, beta, do come over", and with a quiet dignity, she walked away.
Driving away, Rahul realized he had not asked her number, or the address, or even Ranjan's whereabouts.
A snapshot of childhood had appeared, and vanished.
Almost like a dream.
A quick glance at the rear view mirror.
Gone.
Snapshots... Childhood... Memory...
________________________________________
As I was done reading the above short story by Rajiv Ramanujam, I felt even more empty than I do otherwise... It numbed me, unnerved me... The ever growing vacuum just became humongous... The hole became a crater...
Ironically the more technology we now have access to, the more detached we have become... That's how the life has become to be...
Life has taught me, 'n taught me well, at times in subtle 'n at other times in a brutal way to differentiate 'n respect between all the things that are meant to be 'n aren't meant to be... But losing the connect with reality isn't how I ever wanted it to be...
________________________________________
Epilogue...
Repeatedly calling one particular number from my hand phone over last one hour, I got a trifle bit miffed... constantly was getting busy tone... WTF, what has come over people, how can anyone remain inaccessible in this age 'n time... I mean, who has the audacity to continuously talk over one hour without realizing that there may be someone somewhere urgently trying to reach 'em... at least have the call waiting activated, for God's sake...
Shoot... It dawned upon me... I was trying to call my own hand phone number...
In a desperate attempt to reach I, me, myself, had failed to connect, not without reason perhaps... I was failing time 'n again, in every attempt, to reach myself... 'n it wasn't a technology glitch... my inner core had become inaccessible to the facade I portray to the outside world...
Is it a realization; is it a revelation... I don't know... perhaps more aptly, I won't know as I have always been brain challenged...
Surely more than anything, losing connect with myself is gonna be my nemesis, my bane, my Waterloo...
I have dug my own grave... 'n oblivious of it, I am walking towards it... nah... am running towards it...
Life won't give me a second chance...
Call waiting isn't activated...

... it ain't the heart that beats me anymore; but that it beats...
Had read this during schooling... possibly a zillion years ago...
Haar ki Jeet...
By Sri Sudarshan, a writer well known for his short stories...
Here it goes...
__________________________________________
Baba Bharthi was a monk who used to live in a village temple serving the temple 'n the people in the village.
The only worldly possession he had, was his horse Heera, who was indeed a really fine mustang.
The horse was pretty famous in the neighboring areas 'n one fine day this beautiful animal was noticed by Khadag Singh, the infamous dacoit.
Absolutely smitten by the beauty of the horse, he desperately tries to buy him from Baba Bharthi. When Baba refuses to sell, he threatened Baba with dire consequences 'n leaves.
Few months later, Baba riding on his beloved Heera noticed a crippled guy on the road who seemed to have a lot of trouble walking. The crippled begged Baba for a ride into the village. Moved by the guy's plight Baba helped him onto the horse. As soon as he was firmly up on the horse, the crippled pushed Baba away. It turned out that the cripple was none other than Khadag Singh in disguise. He sternly told Baba that since he was in possession of the horse it belonged to him, also warning the Baba not to ever try searching for the horse.
Just as he was leaving, Baba told Khadag Singh that he may indeed have the horse but also requested him not to disclose this episode with anyone else lest people lose faith in the cripples 'n others in need 'n refused help citing this particular incident as an example.
Moved by this noble thought, Khadag Singh returned the horse back to Baba Bharthi.

same wishes as always for ya dudette... lambi umer ho, dukh word ka kabhi pata bhi na chale... ameen!
same curse for me... muqaddar ke sitam ko samajh ke muqaddas, yeh majnoon dhadkane... ek khandar pe pehra deti ab bhi muqarrar, jaise dastuur ho koi...

impeccable, was it a mere bubble
indestructible, just another rubble
... 'n 'en I walked a bit more...
Surreal marred with introspection
mind overpowering the sensation
quantum of infinity was moderation
... 'n 'en I walked a bit more...
Appallingly elixir was a poison stiff
soulmate turned stranger in a tiff
pointed me towards edge of the cliff
... 'n 'en I walked a bit more...
... I walk no more... never ever again...

Losing all that was mine... to someone who never was...
merrily I wandered in dark, until I saw a ray...
sure it appeared like the sunshine of an eternal day...
surreal or was I hallucinating, an atheist began to pray...
did I see God, or was this a game destiny wanted to play...
I took few familiar steps into an unknown domain...
was told there are joys to share along with the pain...
staking all, but aware, I wasn't meant to gain...
believing it a mirror, finding reflection in a pane...
parched desert hopelessly seeking it's share of rain...
sure wasn't meant to be yet I was up to the task...
incorrigible became vulnerable sans any mask...
ironically 'en it dawned was always in dusk...
insanely building a castle on a whiff of musk...
start till the end, what now seems a sour bargain...
losing all I had, yet not an iota I could reclaim...
loggerheads with Almighty, yes I take all the blame...
I wander, not so merrily, in dark, forever again...

FAD... (via ~ Alok Manaktala on email)
The 76-year-old woman walked down the hallway of Clearview Addictions Clinic, searching for the right department. She passed signs for the "Heroin Addiction Department (HAD)," the "Smoking Addiction Department (SAD)" and the "Bingo Addiction Department (BAD)."
Then she spotted the department she was looking for: "Facebook Addiction Department (FAD)."
It was the busiest department in the clinic, with about three dozen people filling the waiting room, most of them staring blankly into their Blackberries and iPhones.
A middle-aged man with unkempt hair was pacing the room, muttering, "I need to milk my cows. I need to milk my cows."
A twenty-something man was prone on the floor, his face buried in his hands, while a curly-haired woman comforted him.
"Don't worry. It'll be all right."
"I just don't understand it. I thought my update was LOL-worthy, but none of my friends even clicked the 'like' button."
"How long has it been?"
"Almost five minutes. That's like five months in the real world."
The 76-year-old woman waited until her name was called, then followed the receptionist into the office of Alfred Zulu, Facebook Addiction Counselor.
"Please have a seat, Edna," he said with a warm smile. "And tell me how it all started."
"Well, it's all my grandson's fault. He sent me an invitation to join Facebook. I had never heard of Facebook before, but I thought it was something for me, because I usually have my face in a book."
"How soon were you hooked?"
"Faster than you can say 'create a profile.' I found myself on Facebook at least eight times each day -- and more times at night. Sometimes I'd wake up in the middle of the night to check it, just in case there was an update from one of my new friends in India. My husband didn't like that. He said that friendship is a precious thing and should never be outsourced."
"What do you like most about Facebook?"
"It makes me feel like I have a life. In the real world, I have only five or six friends, but on Facebook, I have 674. I'm even friends with Juan Carlos Montoya."
"Who's he?"
"I don't know, but he's got 4,000 friends, so he must be famous."
"Facebook has helped you make some connections, I see."
"Oh yes. I've even connected with some of the gals from high school -- I still call them 'gals.' I hadn't heard from some of them in ages, so it was exciting to look at their profiles and figure out who's retired, who's still working, and who's had some work done. I love browsing their photos and reading their updates. I know where they've been on vacation, which movies they've watched, and whether they hang their toilet paper over or under. I've also been playing a game with some of them."
"Let me guess. Farmville?"
"No, Mafia Wars. I'm a Hitman. No one messes with Edna."
"Wouldn't you rather meet some of your friends in person?"
"No, not really. It's so much easier on Facebook. We don't need to gussy ourselves up. We don't need to take baths or wear perfume or use mouthwash. That's the best thing about Facebook -- you can't smell anyone. Everyone is attractive, because everyone has picked a good profile pic. One of the gals is using a profile pic that was taken, I'm pretty certain, during the Eisenhower Administration."
"What pic are you using?"
"Well, I spent five hours searching for a profile pic, but couldn't find one I really liked. So I decided to visit the local beauty salon."
"To make yourself look prettier?"
"No, to take a pic of one of the young ladies there. That's what I'm using."
"Didn't your friends notice that you look different?"
"Some of them did, but I just told them I've been doing lots of yoga."
"When did you realize that your Facebooking might be a problem?"
"I realized it last Sunday night, when I was on Facebook and saw a message on my wall from my husband: 'I moved out of the house five days ago. Just thought you should know.'"
"What did you do?"
"What else? I unfriended him of course!"

In a first, pacemaker fitted in brain helps cure OCD - The Times of India
In a rare first for Asia, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) -- a medical condition that results in repetitive behaviour such as handwashing, counting, checking or cleaning -- has been treated with a pacemaker fitted in parts of the brain.
A team from VIMHANS in the capital has successfully implanted a pacemaker in the brain of an OCD patient, which has "significantly reduced her peculiarities in just two weeks time".
The team, including neurosurgeons Dr Alok Gupta and Dr Sanjeev Kumar and psychiatrist Dr Ashutosh Tripathi, used Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) to implant the pacemaker for sending electrical impulses to specific parts of the brain.
DBS, which has been used in select brain regions till now, has provided remarkable therapeutic benefits for disorders like such as Parkinson's and dystonia. However, it has been used for the first time to treat OCD.
" DBS involves precise stimulation of particular parts of the brain through the implantation of removable electrodes. Two electrodes have been wired to both sides of patient's brain (anterior limb of internal capsule) which communicate through the pacemaker, the battery of which has been put inside her chest. We can alter the function of any part of the brain by stimulating it. If stimulated with low frequency electrodes, the area starts to get excited. With high frequency, it blocks off the pathway and reduces symptoms. In her case, we used high frequency electrodes to block the pathway of the brain that was causing OCD," Dr Gupta explained.
The 48-year female patient had been suffering from OCD for the past 21 years.She had been living in constant fear of all kinds of touch, scared that any contact with her children or object would severely soil her hands.
Her condition had become so acute that she stopped eating or going to the toilet on her own. In fact, she would sit all day on the bed without touching anything, waiting for her children or husband to feed her or take her to the toilet.
To make matters worse, if she touched anything by mistake, she would wash it several times. Strangely, she would not turn off the tap even after using it.
"Two weeks since the implant, she has not just started eating on her own but is now completely independent," Dr Gupta added.
Though there are a number of medications and psychological therapies available to treat OCD, it is estimated that about 10% patients don't respond adequately to these first-line interventions.
"DBS is for those patients who don't respond to medication. Psychiatrists need to identify these patients before the brain pacemaker could be used. Besides, the price of this form of treatment is yet to be determined. DBS used for Parkinson's patients costs $8000 in India," Dr Gupta said.
DBS has several advantages over traditional brain surgery for OCD. It can be used to treat symptoms with little risk of permanent changes in the brain. The level of stimulation can be adjusted, and the stimulation can be used continuously or intermittently depending on the treatment plan.
Since the surgery is minimally invasive, it has a reduced potential for side effects.
