Mr. Right - Who Is He





The world is all around us as we can know everything about it with the help of technology which comes in many forms. What happens in this world varies from region to region but there are certain aspects that remain constant simply because this world consists of and led by HUMAN BEINGS. Humans are the most wonderful creation of  Mother Nature and have certain characteristics that define and unite various people all around the world. That is why movies, plays and books seem to explore human emotions so extensively as they yield so much sympathy from the audience that since time immemorial we have seen all sorts of fictional creations representing what our basic instincts always were. Some are imaginative and some are based on real incidents but all the same their objective is the same - to feed our emotional instincts.

Lately I have been reading romantic novels and watching romantic movies. No, I haven't developed an interest in romance over night. It's just that it has remained the most popular topic since really very long. And knowingly or unknowingly people have their own romantic fantasies that is fueled by fictional characters present all around us. In every movie that I watch which can be in any language or may span any culture there is a couple for certain which follow the universal law of attraction between the opposite sexes. The movie can not necessarily be romantic but can be based on any random topic or full of hardcore action but at least five to ten minutes are always dedicated to softer topics like love. Not only movies which are watched by almost all sorts of people but numerous books have been written describing this particular emotion which has got the privilege of driving people crazy. Since I am always surrounded by such stories and characters I felt the need to express what I feel about the fundamental law of attraction.

Its not as if I have got something special to express about love but it's just that I have formed many opinions about it after being constantly reminded of the exceptional power of this emotion. While being a child whenever I used to watch a couple dancing on the screen I wanted to dance around my home just in the same way imagining a boy of my age substituting the on screen hero. People may think that I was crazy to attempt to do such activities or this may seem to be the most hilarious thing but this is a very old secret that I am revealing publicly on my blog. This began my journey on the ride to my fantasy world which consisted of my own romantic scenarios with a boy being a product of my imagination and myself as the main protagonists. The boy was just the exact replica of my dream man or for that matter the so called Mr.Right. I am not an unusual or the first person in imagining my Mr. Right. Almost all girls do that but somehow there's something peculiar about the way I have imagined. I do not day dream - at least not about anything which is very close to my heart - except about my romantic fantasies. Neither did I ever day dream with my eyes open. But I did when I went into a romantic mood after reading a book or watching a movie and even for that matter after listening to my favorite romantic song. You see romance is surrounded all around me. I am certain to fall a victim to that. A pretty natural thing to happen. 

Now you may think that if I had such strong fantasies and went on to create an entire movie in my head with we two being the main protagonists enjoying each other's company like nothing else and sharing each other's moments of happiness and sorrow with an almost dangerous desperation then how come I had not found a real person fulfilling the criteria of Mr.Right. But the thing is reality is very much different from fantasy and I never even attempted to consider anyone of that sort because I always felt as if I am too stupid to even project such fantasies leave alone considering them to have any connection whatsoever with the reality. Normally people think of somebody belonging to this planet. I think of someone who cannot be from this planet as he's the one who has been directly sent by God as His angel. Way too hypothetical and exaggerated fantasy. 

Nobody who knew me (till now) had an idea that I can ever be romantic. It was simply because I never expressed it. But if I start explaining my fantasies it will take a full day to jot down everything with pen and paper. Now when I do it I am pretty honest in doing just that. But the fact is that ultimately everybody has to spend their life with their life partner irrespective of whether they have any fantasies or not. Some turn out to be ideal stories being one more copy of a happy ending romantic movie and other are horrible failures. But our world revolves around our partners only in any way and thus all those happy ending stories are after all doing a good job by inspiring us and inculcating in us a strong foundation of maintaining a cordial relationship with our life partners. Now it depends on both the people to turn their life into a heaven or a hell.

Happy New Year 2012





I wish everyone who reads this a very happy new year. This is the first time when I am wishing a happy new year through a blog which can be considered as new inclusion in the technological development of the current era which also includes the Internet which itself is being defined nowadays with respect to the most popular social networking site Facebook. In simple terms I just wish to mention that gone are the conventional ways of wishing prosperous new year through greeting cards or a mere phone call but all has been replaced by the most powerful Internet which has resulted into different ways of dynamic festive wishes that seem much more appreciative and easier than anyone can ever imagine. New year is not the only occasion for exchanging good wishes and Internet has got the best for each occasion. I have a wish to exchange greeting cards with my near and dear ones at every occasion but don't get to fulfill this wish most of the times as these traditional ways are becoming obsolete and it seems a foolish step to take to get hold of a beautiful looking greeting card and travel all the way to the post office to stand in queues and finally say what your heart means to say when that seems just a few milliseconds away in this digital age. But if this convention still existed I bet I would have spent most of my pocket money in buying the most beautiful looking greeting card in the most expensive looking Archies store. Just a mere two years back I didn't even know what was Google and Facebook was just a very odd looking term that I had ever come across unable to come to a logical meaning of what the combination of the two unrelated words 'Face' and 'Book' can possibly have. And believe it or not YouTube was introduced to me just six months ago !!!

I don't understand why people rely on new year resolutions and repeatedly make an issue out of it when I believe that each moment we are taking resolutions and at times following them strictly and other times breaking them as usual thinking that resolutions are meant to be broken after all. Each day starts with a resolution and ends with (mental if not physical) diary entry giving us all the more reasons to fret as well as boast about trivial things done during the day. But indeed a new year comes with fresh hopes and visions of what we can possibly make the best out of the coming year and later mark it as one of the most fulfilling years of our life. So here comes 2012 and not to mention about pondering over our country's progress this year most of us are too busy worried about our own life's progress. The new year brings up good business opportunities for the astrologers with people thronging at their feet hoping to hear nothing but a remarkable future in the upcoming year and needlessly spending thousands of bucks when nobody actually knows what does the future hold for them. Mere predictions do not change our ultimate destiny but just give us superficial hopes to stay happy for the time being. I really wonder that if this astrological business is so effective so as to cause the most reluctant people also to spend a month's salary in predicting their future then why don't other people around the world are found talking about it or is it just a 'desi' Indian way of attaining temporary mental peace with the help of very decent and religious looking dhoti clad 'pandits' scattered around all hindu temples in the country. No doubt sometimes their predictions are unmistakably true but I don't find any point in making a serious investment towards what they call as their job. 

New year may conjure many different images among different people but all of us are united in having the root wish of being happy in the time to come. I once learnt about a remarkable scientific fact while reading The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown that if the entire population in the world get united in thinking and meditating about the exact same thing those thought waves can even move objects or in other words they transform into a physical force. I am imagining a similar scenario during the new year eve when all of us all over the world think about happiness and the collective power of our thoughts lead to some surprising outcomes. Although this is a very hypothetical vision but it sure makes us feel united in at least one unimportant aspect. 

The year 2012 will be welcomed by us with full vigor and infectious enthusiasm by partying hard and I do pray to let one thing happen -  when I read this post exactly one year later I will have enough points to complement what I am writing here and thus finally believe what the astrologers keep on ranting about all positive things that can happen to us (and thus talk of them with more respect). Once again I wish a very happy and prosperous new year 2012 to all and hope that this year brings health, wealth and plenty of blessings from The Almighty to all deserving people.
