My festival

"Ganesha chathurthi" is one of my favorite festivals right from my childhood. 

Not only because of the peculiar dishes my mom makes on that day also because of the funny and cute preparation and celebration that i make along with my dad.

Most of my off school time was spent at home rather than in care centers or internet cafe's like to-days kid's.I used to love to spend time going out with my parents and even my dad used to be free to spend unlike the present corporate dad's.



The day before Ganesha chathurthi was something exciting for me as we(me and my dad) used to start decorating the "palavelli".
I used to exhibit all my artistic skills in decorating it with color papers cut in different styles with my dad's help.
Everything was so funny right from preparing glue to pasting and decorating the room.

And on the day of festival, i used to wake up so early in a hurry to get ready fast and to put on my new dress.

While mom used to prepare all favorite(not Ganesha's my fav) dishes me and my dad used to start our pooja.praying with different holy leaves while my dad used to explain the meaning for each and every leaf.

Completing puja is followed by having a delicious lunch and watching the festival oriented movie in the television and chatting with my grand-pa as he explained me the story of Ganesha.

Evening we start our ride to visit the Ganesha idols all over my home-town.It was quite challenging for my number of visits to be max compared to my friends when we debate it next day in our school.

On a whole it was always lovely and much more sweeter after my sister's birth :)

Its not why i shared something that was special done only at my home, but it was always happy and memorable to celebrate anything with our family and that too the innocence of our childhood add's much beauty to it.

All this were My-thoughts the day before this Ganesha chathurthi that passed through me as these days i was away from this happiness.

Wishing to experience this again soon.

My Life@ Infosys Mysore

It’s nearly 290 days I’ve been away from home. And the most thrilling and toughest part for me was scheduled from 7 th March 2011(officially) but its 6 th  March in the evening ,  when  I’ve stepped into  “Mr. Narayan Murthy’s Centre of Excellence” . First parting from my Dad, as it was half-passed 5 by the time I’ve reached the campus my dad was not allowed to accompany me into the Centre. Waving him with little sorrow and heart filled up with enthusiasm and new energy staring at the buildings and the huge campus which I’ve never seen till then , I entered into the first building at  Gate-1  that welcome’s every fresher like me in introducing the bag scan and security check which  were  there every now and then to irritate us in our busy schedules. After completing the formalities and holding the prestigious I’d card felt my –self very much proud to be an Info scion . I was allotted one room in the huge campus and  ...

LONELY NESS

Image
Loneliness.......Its a feeling where we experience strong sense of emptiness and isolation!! The only space that could be occupied by anyone at any time for any reason. The only source for ones interaction with his conscience.Loneliness is not only to express our sorrow but its a pool of the deepest feelings of our heart that couldn't be felt by our mind. Loneliness is not felt when we are segregated from some one but its truly felt when we segregate from our thoughts.Its felt pathetic when we feel that we could no longer rule our life by ourselves. Only a lonely man offers his hand too quickly to whomever he encounters. The space of one's loneliness is so high that no one could be capable enough to fill it. Practically loneliness is not same as being alone.Its a state where one seeks emotional refreshment.Its not always true that loneliness is always for a lonely man but loneliness can make a man feel alone.  But this feeling of loneliness once occurred must be ove...

Desire Makes Life Beautiful

LIFE- Can be a bowl of joys or fistful of sorrows. - Can be a boon or a curse. It all lies in our hands how we coin our life. It all depends on our thoughts the way our life looks to our conscience. " The mind is its own place which in itself can make heaven of hell or hell of heaven" These golden words always follow me in every moment of my life.What's life? Was it merely a four letter word? yes, of-course a short four letter word that holds all our fortune, our thoughts, deeds and all our ambitions and aspirations. LIFE- can bring out fruitful results as well as fistful of sorrows. Heart-fully its how we mold it, and how we shape it. At our 16's Life is just a lump of clay which could be given the best outfit by our 20's.The outfit we choose paves the path either of flowering lands or land of thorns.Either of them could be the destiny, but the path you choose is the life you'd have ahead. LIFE gives us many things.It gives us lot's of fun, joy...
