Event That has Passed


Wonderful lyrics and song from the legend Frank Sinatra 
Its so true in life . When the event happens , we have a set mind and all decision is taken in that state . 
And when you sit relaxed days and years after , the whole event is so clear in mind with multiple options on how that should have been handled .

I know there were a hundred ways to tell her I loved her
It's funny how they're all so clear today
And when her face was burning with sadness and yearning
I don't know why I turned my eyes away
But it's so easy looking at the game the morning after
Adding up the kisses and the laughter
Knowing how you'd play it if the chance to play it over ever came
But then, a Monday morning quarterback never lost a game
The room was so alive with all her feelings and longings
I saw the spark of danger in her eyes
Well, how would it have hurt me if I'd turned back and held her?
A moment passes, something lovely dies
But it's so easy looking at the game the morning after
Adding up the kisses and the laughter
Knowing how you'd play it if the chance to play it over ever came
But then, a Monday morning quarterback never lost a game
Yes, it's easier to win it when you know you'd never play it quite the same

But then, this Monday morning quarterback never lost a game

The Legend : Frank Sinatra : That's Life

 

Few things you listen , view and get late in life and then you think ....why so late
 
That's life , that's what all the people say
You're riding high in April, shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
I said, that's life , and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks, stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine old world it keeps spinning around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out, and I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life , I tell ya, I can't deny it
I thought of quitting, baby
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly

That's life , that's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out but my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shaking come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die

Time After Time


Time after time,
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be loving you,
So lucky to be
The one you long to see
In the evening when the day is through

I only know what I know,
The passing years will show
You've kept my love so young, so new;
And time after time,
You'll hear me say that I'm

So lucky to be loving you

Nail Polish


I just developed a new fashion
of painting my nails
And for this I have a all new designer
She is qualified and knows her skill well
She is non other than my daughter

3.5 years of age :)

गुब्बारे


बच्चों को लगते जो प्यारे
वो कहलाते हैं गुब्बारे 

गलियों, बाज़ारों, ठेलों में 
गुब्बारे बिकते मेलों में 
काले, लाल, बैंगनी, पीले
कुछ हैं हरे, बसन्ती, नीले

पापा थैली भर कर लाते 
जन्म-दिवस पर इन्हें सजाते
गलियों, बाजारों, ठेलों में 
गुब्बारे बिकते मेलों में 

फूँक मार कर इन्हें फुलाओ
हाथों में ले इन्हें झुलाओ 
सजे हुए हैं कुछ दुकान में 
कुछ उड़ते हैं आसमान में

मोहक छवि लगती है प्यारी 
गुब्बारों की महिमा न्यारी

Last Ball Attitude

I am not a hyper cricket enthusiast nor I am a diehard cricket fan . But given a chance , I do watch matches in bits and pieces .
But I love M S DHONI . 
Not because he is from Jharkhand , but for who he is .
His calm , but thoughtful approach on the field has been exceptional . I have not seen anyone like him . His unconventional and out of nowhere decisions at critical moments . His generosity and support for team members , all have been exceptional .
And above all his last ball attitude , his will and effort to win even at the last ball , remarkable .
He never accepted defeat till the last ball was bowled .
In my life time , I have never seen a player like him .
I strongly feel facts and figures are by-product of your actions and Dhoni will always be an exception .

There has been a lot to learn from him and its true that he can never retire,  aspiring we Indians .

My office bag generally has a diary , pen , my id card and my laptop . 
My daughter prepared the bag for me today which had her toys , wooden alphabets , her slipper and Jayanti's slipper .
