“You love the idea of something but not the thing itself”

The lust for a New World… Hope for possibilities, Adventures & more

Historically till date we have been hooked on to the “Love for Power”, by conquering & building empires! The Fascination of Travel, experience new places, especially foreign lands, from learning new cultures to meeting new people & party galore. Commerce & development are of course amongst the others.

Correct me if I am wrong but didn’t everyone FOLLOW - the Italian Explorer Christopher Columbus to make the great continent of Americas?!

Legend has it that He took 4 voyages (didn’t have navigation apps or the technology to help the poor chap) & so happens to be tagged the 1^st dude to discover the Land however not true!

Anyways this isn’t a history lesson but as a matter of fact

“we are programmed to follow something even if it wasn’t partially true”

Largely because You & I believe in things quickly

Nowadays we call them “influencers” who make your eyes glued on to it…

I realized while posting wacky Bitmoji that my gang started following me… I freakin became the influencer in that small moment you see

On the other hand some can have an identity crisis with the Avatar & we all fall down - ROFL if you may Gen Y

So the unconventional story goes… “She & him” HOW?!

Somewhere in an exotic location

What happens on tour stays on the tour… No paparazzi as I always say

Starry night with live music in the background. The gang Playing the game… Never have I ever which ends with Truth or dare

Put the money where your mouth is… bets on when the stakes are high

Aging slowly… Loosing sleep for the bitter sweet getaways

Its more than meets the eye, over time…

When you are delusional to find yourself in the middle of a highway to choose which path is this leading, is this one a friend or an enemy

Confused like a lost puppy. So you stay in Denial, rather Interestingly

Its true that World loves underdogs, they want the weaker to win. You might have seen this in the infamous Cricket Finals when you guys Never Rooted for England while the irony is that they created the game while never won it!!! Haha I am right on that for sure! Think again

This one tells the brains to gather courage - If you are a loser then you have nothing to lose

But when she started acting out, it was all downhill from there

Dreary as it is

She takes a sigh & says… You are putting your hands where they don’t belong

Long enough to realize that… you tell me anything & I will believe you

Well from sparks to fire they put on a show. The moment when he conceded

The guy shrugs his shoulders whispering “The irony is you have me but you still want me” Quite Gallant don’t you readers think

I am terrible! For crying out loud, everything is a Hypothesis

While we tear ourselves away! These kids don’t take it lying down if you know what I mean

You can’t say Yes to everything while you can learn how to fashionably say NO

you can love something but maybe not like it at the same time, just what your brother will have to say about you haha…

Its like “the Second choice”, when the other feels weird & you ask “are you J?”

& it ends with - Tell me something that I can always remember & hold on to…

Never in your life… you felt so free!

It is this feeling which comes only with experience, when you let go

More than often it is an addiction, an obsession, just the fear of how life will be without “it”

The “it” can be anything from a bad habit to a crazy relationship!

There is a Time to Play, Time to Shine & Time to Detox

Adios Amigos!

Placebo

There is an Italian saying “Years, Lovers & Glasses of wine… These are the things that should not be counted”

I will + Ritual video meetings to it now.

A wing & a prayer, all you need in the times we live in. Living as your last, anything is possible… something magical, you never know

Continuing from my last post… Lockdown 2.0 “The New Normal” they call it

This is the 1^st & Last chapter. reality check - All farts no shit!

Ground zero & To my horror I realized that Diwali came early this time, @9 for 9 haha! for things like these, Short time memory loss will help live the lockdown as day 1.

A Plausible argument! I want to take this one describing the effect

Everyone likes a good Lockdown story

You think you’ve seen one you’ve seen em all

Take a hard left to disneyland

The sharpness for the outdoors, dressing up classy & cool, Missing my hands upon the wheel, just drive to nowhere… abusing everyone & anyone who change lanes while you are on the road. Packing a bag & the thrill to travel

So I was getting bored at home, missing the sheer pleasure of driving & couldn’t take it anymore! While it was safe still its Not for Everyone…

I got ready & I mean power dressing shit! rolled up my windows no contact or chat with anyone, I drove to the unknown

With the confidence I wore got me crossing the barriers. The cops were literally saluting me

Can you pull it off?!

I am sure the Next time when you drive you will hold the steering like a kid holds an ice cream cone

Breaking News!

The story about Mahabharata is based on confusion created by women & not the Epic War for the Throne! Didn’t you watch the re-runs carefully Duuuh

Oldies are so glued on the Mahabharata & Ramayan Binge watching… Making DD the most watched channel!

WTF time

Rub some luck on me, Por Favor! In the past few days this is the exact thought a friend had. Beg borrow steal but money can’t buy you a phone nowadays. Some bad space without a working device & quite alone!

She survived by making the best of it by list of books to god knows what

Discounted Life, Everything is Paused… relationships, to some stuck without a phone & counting their blessings

Beyond the usual, While we connect with others, you need to connect with yourself.

The “Me time” which will bring you out of this Lockdown constructively. Some will lose hope & be negative. I urge you to reach out to those who need help to survive the mental scavengers… Its like a Snowball effect & how

While there are those who have “taking a shower” at the bottom of their list vs

BBB on repeat - beer bed boxers yum yum yum on the top

Most are missing the house help, Miss a swim to grabbing a cold one… to street food & a jog in the park.

Best time I had were the delights & great delicacies presented by the cooks@home, learning new dishes & cuisines from youtube, I am sure you are busy perfecting that flavor or the Africa shaped to the round shaped roti becoming better house makers…

Then you realize that you have to keep social distancing from your fridge!

Some develop new skills & discover things that you never knew you liked!

Coming out of this lockdown there will be New Avatars, we either will be cows, alcoholics or some super humans with new powers, becoming a painter, speaking French, or maybe some will be forced to leave a bad habit

There will be New looks from default Growing longer Hair to pony tails!!! Nasty

New Challenges to learning Yoga moves… Urgggh that hurts

BC / AC used to be referred Before Christ/After Christ. Going forward it will be referred to Before Corona / After Corona!

Mind is so open that the brain can fall out. Take a break from the Netflix on snooze

Go Loco!

Whats the Difference between law & justice?

I can ask you the same question but I already know the answer

I don’t think so I know so!

Story of your life or maybe yours… let me get you on the same page

Best way to make anyone realize something is by sharing Pre & Post pictures

As I write, Anyone who is anybody is on house arrest today

The good news is “till you get paid” (gulp) What you save is what you earn in the Lockdown coz you don’t have much to splurge on

I hope you have a friend which is more than a brother & less than a wife

Keep rolling because this Impediment will be for times to come

You have a recurring Question in your mind… What is the worst that can happen

Are you kiddin me

Its similar to when you figure out shit… Sooner or later you realize that the cause of the jam is not the accident but the reason that everyone likes to watch

Society is a crazy breed! You bet

Travelling fast, travelling light & … You have arrived

History footnote is unbelievable

In Principle its Physical distance Not Social distancing

is this working for you yet

So are you good or are you good?!

All the fresh air & free time will play tricks on you…

some thoughts that flashed in your mind – “No more Dating”

There is more than human relationships

You will never know what you are missing till you try something new

Rules of the 21 Flavors to be untouchable

You are Peeping Behind closed doors… Window Shopping on apps that still might deliver or not

We all are Binge watching, new born book worms. This is killing me

We fear market plunges to price fluctuations

There are No getaways or flights to catch

We still wish to believe that Pizza delivery is safe, huh!

IG House Party invites this weekend. Didn’t you get any… like really

We have come a long way from Partying at Clubs to Bootlegger’s salvation

From Gyms to Home workouts, these are fun. I signed up for it

Those WFH Video Concall Meets are looking good in your shorts

We miss our Mall hopping so we go to room corners to feel a little better

Cinema Gold Class was great but now we settle for Home Theatre with surround sound if you losers got any haha same experience if you got those “lazy boys”

Gone are the days of those Café meets which come down to personal brewing baristas

From online swiping to video dating Mmhmmm…

& for most None Verbal communication is active to take a break from the curfew Phew!

The world as you know it is the world you make around & see from a vantage point. Relive these moments on repeat

Recovery survival if you may. Supremely Fucked! That & some more

It hits You for sure “The Prison without Locks”

Not going anywhere, so cross the bridge now as you have reached

just between you & me there is Much Unfulfilled potential

Your Prerogative, Are these changes New or Imaginary

Tips for them big egos, those expensive Paperweight, Those WFH monkeys

Family Powwow, Let your partner win a round or two… Will help you live peacefully for the next many isolations together ever after

While many are Lonely without someone, Living on a Prayer

Keep a check on that mental health, I mean find the hope in all this madness

Are we Emancipated hmmm… Definitely must have an Appetite for clemency

Its all about who has the stay power! So make the best of it & detox. Focus on Health Family & Friends 

Live this life for some time, take a break because Nature is asking for it

Come back for more

I started writing every Last Sunday of the Month

Living out of a Suitcase

“The world is what you make of it”

Once upon a time… there was a Khanabadosh as we Punjabi’s call it, Gypsy if you may; dainty as it gets

She packs her bag with dreams, SHOES & the whole Shebang! So you know it’s a big one

She had an Always take the weather with you attitude. Someone cool & could literally scream out from her hair “Wherever I lay my head is home”

She wanted Everything at once! Adventure of a lifetime that changed everything

Tasting the finest things in life, from Bottomless cocktails to them Veganuary delights you find in fancy cafes. I mean Fuckin A

Alive & kickin real time

Like a bunny hopping around airbnbs hotel rooms & how

She doesn’t know which country she is sleeping tonight & which she wakes up in

Short lived Global Trotter, Country hopper which she so was

Bumping into those Hippies to 420 friendly to Bagpackers

Are you kidding me

The excitement, the craze, the thrill... not forgetting the jetlag

Hmmm grass looks greener on the other side

She had a Change of heart

The voice shouts out - How does a girl like you end up… a girl like you?

feels you don’t belong

Some have the Appetite for it while some don’t…

Check this out, What you call the crazy crowd in a local Bombay train uncomfortable some call it environment in a nightclub.

She doesn’t wanna be a cowboy!

Duuu…

She lands up in a God forsaken town, She is in No mans land

Difficult as it is

Life happens De facto

What you kids call it nowadays… Vacay is it, she calls a walk in the park

So which was once exciting is now boring when you miss home

Don’t know what hit her

The distance inside grew faster than the space apart

In the middle of nowhere

The voice inside tells her again “I just hope you know when the time has come to Wrap this shit up”

Easier for the mind harder for the heart, Overwhelmed!

Shit gets complicated

Where there was a whole lot now there is a hole

She said “its not even funny how I Long for the touch of home”

Miss the road that goes to love “I can live without you but I don’t want to...

She reasons with herself when the street goes silent, Finding the lost purpose

Still learning to love herself while her heart is with someone else

Someone said “Allow your Passion to become your purpose & it will one day become your Profession”

Gracias Muchacho

Knock Out

I started writing every Last Sunday of the Month

Knock Out

“The Darkness shows the Light”

The screaming words make you visualise how you will always find the truth

Perhaps its the denial

You have to fall to know the glory to rise.

Legend has it that a person who is Born to be wild is usually a Teen brainer till they die... in the same breath I say you have to do something with that knowledge

I will have it no other way, the past might be full of struggle which teaches you much, makes you the person you are today!

If you wish to Mature like a single malt it teaches you to keep low memory of things that don’t matter or just look back to laugh about it while you grow rich in skill. Sapiosexual to Morons we have em all…

So I live to be a storyteller for trying... maybe make a difference in how you feel the very moment you read this. It might be for hope or to smile or those who just get a nice kick out of it.

Happiness & Love is felt momentarily! It is a journey not a destination

I always say that Hope is God. I will cover more on this in the coming times

Life is all about how you take the blows & how we suck it all in... when you absorb all those experiences, the energy it generates is immense. But how you release it is a responsibility you need to live with everyday

Can you tell what makes you smile one day while another day you wake up in misery. Its the simple Light that you see which makes everything bright!

Anyways let me just say that a smile can do it all, try it with people. The world mirrors & act their best. You will be surprised how things turn out.

The Smile knock out can do the trick at work or any aspect of life you place it, be it a meeting or a social gathering or any stage to a simple date.

Smashing thing is I see many kids nowadays who come across simply Formidable & super Ingenious

I get knocked out by A 9 year old who has her Youtube channel

A 10 year old kid knocks me out by saying she is an author @ blogger

I mean they are All kinds of stubborn

They will own this shit!

Call me silly but I enjoy writing after a good Hangover! Haha

Talk to me

Broken Dreams

“He was a Nightmare dressed in a day dream”

Its the time when a Crush lands up in a Crash

The feeling when you realise that... You Got Dumped!

Alias Simi told her story while she lights up a smoke, she had a sudden pale which came out of nowhere! It still makes her nervous, her hands shook while she speaks on

Simi goes back in time when she was crazy about Jack, it was then that she was “In & out of love” every time they had a difference Jack would walk away… Simi had a weakness for this guy & it was always like putting out fire

The time they spent together was a Repeat ache & as she thinks about it… return of the pain. Simi realized that Jack was not easy to keep & had other plans which didn’t include her. Eventually she had learnt in time that Jack was not to keep but to let go!

She re-lives the moments & takes her last drag to end the story but they still haunt her years after the breakup.

Why can’t people stick to the simple concept - If you can’t change em then change em

Is it Too hot for you?

Cheap Bottles of Wine

“As long as there are those that remember what was, there will be those that are unable to accept what can be”

There are good enough reasons to get knocked down... While we move through the journey of life we have enough on our mind & mostly when we wake up the feeling that kicks in is the way we take our day forward. It is better you get knocked out by the blows of something beautiful than the misery of life itself. The entire point of life is that everything & everyone around you has there shit & you deal with the best of it & look at the best in them!

This is how I can remember it & goes something like this:

Mike was the hunk that girls used to call chocolate, he just needed a girl’s name & post the intro it was a breeze to fall for the stud! What happens to this fool is not funny. He had seen much in life & had given up on women...  So the baggage of history never leaves you & turns you into a jerk that he completely was! Eventually he would find a way to run away from any relationship that was taking shape or turning into something meaningful. However one day he felt otherwise

Mike met Natasha & says Pinch me for I have seen an Angel!

He keeps questioning himself what the fuck is Love...

What happens After the thrill is gone?!

I will see you before you see me
