Sometimes you wait for things in life that never arrive... like a letter. The hope which started with a warm summer day, which now the razor sharp winter is freezing my tiny drops of hopes into icicles.
A friend today wrote to me that she hates Sundays because for her, a Sunday is death of the weekend. Very interesting view, I wonder if its a natural
death or a murder.
Another friend has a big yellow lamp in her living room,the bright warm light from the lamp glows from the corner of room like a sun,but tender invisible rays.
The lamp was the first thing that i noticed when i entered the room, there were three other people in room on a cosy sofa. All three were soaked in the yellow light.
Over wine we had many pleasant and deep conversations, at one point I realized I was slipping away into my own thoughts of the people that mattered to me the most,after she made her statement. She said
"When i moved to Prague, i was lonely. Yes its true the buildings,architecture, atmosphere everything is enjoyable, but for me a town or an island is
just an town or an island until I start to connect with the people, until i meet people whom I could connect with, until then the island or city is inhabited. I like
Prague now because of the people i know here, its inhabitants, people make me and life is people"
I made a recollection of the people i valued in random, the people whom i care, people with whom i like to spend time together, and i realized they are
far away from me. Life is people, i repeated after her. I took my stare away from the lamp and everyone seems to be waiting for a comment from me after my
deep thought, I looked at the lamp again, i wondered if the lamp is emitting positive energy. I felt good just with recalling the people i care, the people i embrace with love,i felt good, "life is people" i nodded in agreement.
I wondered if i could dip my hands into the warm glow of light and paint everyone yellow.

Rejuvenation of Nameless Things.
Its been days I have been thinking of this blog, waiting for a start, a subject to start writing again, and yes some nameless things have inspired me.
SNOW IS MELTING.
I walk out to the narrow cobblestone streets of Prague, the sky is
bright and the snow is melting.
The innocent white mask of Prague is melting away to reveal its vicious face.
I walk through the cold wet grounds among hundreds of tourists. my
friend used to tell me that
when you are in a group, you loose individuality but i never agreed to his view.
the most differences of a person is revealed when they are in a
group,with a keen eye you can
see everyone is different, each tourist in a group is different, with
their own ambitions, their own
problems,their own curious ways to explore the new city. However they
might all be running away
from something,but not the same.
I finally manage to get a seat in the restaurant near the buffet
section, i choose to order instead
of buffet. While i waited for my food, my thoughts wandered away to
the girl far,far away, who
failed to keep her promises to write me letters. I tried to imagine
her day, but with so less
details she told me , it was impossible. Chattering of 5 beautiful
women gang distracted my thoughts,
all of them dressed in business formals and they took the table next
to me. Their elegant behavior and style
suggested they worked as executives. All of the girls were above
average with their looks and watching
them though the course of my meal, i realized one thing, the only time
when a beautiful woman
gets deceived by her beauty is when they are choosing what to eat.
One of the girls in black suite got up and came over to choose her
meal, her happy pretty face she
had at the table was gone, she had the sharp look of hunter,her face
muscles were stiff, the mask she wore
earlier was lost unconsciously revealing her mean looks. All the 5
above average girl's faces had almost the
same level of change, from pretty beauty to cunning. I imagined my
letter friend in black suit walking over to
choose her meal, she see the color of the dish, may be read whats
written under the dishes, unconsciously
waving her fingers,tilting her head to look at the same dish in
different angles, and finally choosing something
which is the strangest to her, may be something like "Dead lovers"
There are many kinds of people you meet,I dont know all of them, but
surely there is one kind where you know from the start,
there is no mask to them, there might be a lot to know and learn
about them, but you get an assurance from the first meeting that
everything is going to be fine and may be
it is this thought which make me very comfortable with them and more
attracted to simple human beings!
After the meal, I walk out to the narrow cobblestone streets of
prague, to the hundreds of tourists. And the snow is melting!

Loss of NameLess Things.
Loss of NameLess Things.
The sound of darkness crawls inside me, and the hard-hitting sensation takes life in me. The air was solid as rock. Darkness was all around me, it was my room in my house.it been a week now since the darkness had prevailed. More of choice than of fate. The light went out and I took no effort to buy one and change it. No that would be a wrong statement, I looked around the house and found nothing suitable. I checked few stores and it was not there. It was more of a choice than fate. I spend my nights in absolute darkness, just my mere choice. Contemplating on the philosophies of darkness and ideals of actions.
Randeep sat at his desk. He just finished writing the essence of life with darkness and his room.

He opened his eyes to darkness, he reached for his mobile to check the time. It said 3.50 am. He felt the unbearable pain behind his forehead, he sensed the difficulty to breath through both the nostrils, a tiny drop of fluid run down his nose. He stared at the ceiling. The medicine he took before going to sleep last night didnt help, he felt worse than yesterday.
Sanu woke up 25 minutes early , alarm was set to 4.15 am. The 5.28 am train would leave Prague to Budapest without him, he first trip outside the Czech republic will be postponed, people who will be waiting for him will be disappointed. Keeping back the mobile, he searched for the water bottle, he came to a half sitting position, raised his head and had some water. Lying back on the bed he thought about the cancellation of his trip, everyone around him had gone to many places,he was the only one who never went traveling and he was looking forward for this trip for almost an year, to get the visa which would make it possible to travel in EU with no spl visa.
Health, is more valuable than we think it is, it could change your life.

Hole in her Shoes
The red metro train cruised through the dark underground tunnels of Prague cutting across the layers of chill air. Inside stood Sanu in the last compartment of the train, leaning his back on the back door of the train. He put on the earphone and played an audio book in this mp3 player. His eyes turned to be an observer and his ears transformed into a child listening to bedtime stories.
"say something nice to me wanatabe" was the first words from the earphones and words will continue to pour out till he reached his work in vaslavske namesti.
As his eyes observed, a girl with big blue fashionable bag gets in from "Budeloviska" station, she went to an empty seat which she might have spotted before getting in the train. This seat faced the back door where Sanu's observing eyes stood. She left the blue bag hung on her left arm, it was weightless, and opened a magazine and started turning the pages to find something to read.
Tough being stylish she was dressed to keep herself warm. She wore a grey thick coat which seems to be made of woolen, under it she had a blue pullover which matched the color of the bag yet more bright. She seems to have a blue tiny dot ear rings, I am not sure if she had the tiny ear ring for real, but it seemed to him that she had a matching ear ring too. Her hair was straight and short and didn’t cover most of her face, normal eyes but with a wide lip.
His eyes were stuck and continued to stare at a small hole in her canvas shoe. She wore the girly canvas shoe which is very popular here in Czech Republic and it had round opening on the top part, above the big toe of her left shoe. Here was this girl so well dressed, a style with perfect attention to matching color and wore a shoe with hole in it. This curiosity led sanu’s eye to search for the other shoe and to his delight it had a same hole exactly in the same place like it’s a mirror reflection. I wondered by a girl like that should be wearing a torn shoe like that. which was when he notice her big toe reaching out though the torn hole, she was actually pushing her big toe up and down, her face didn’t have a slightest reflection of her act, it was not that she was enjoying it ,it was more like an natural act. She continued to play with her big toe till they both got out in the same museum station. No wonder her why her shoes had holes. She went out of the train and walked towards right and me left.

A stream of thoughts always seems to be attached to me where ever I go these days.
Not cheerful nor depressing but definitely not thoughts abt me sitting on the sea shore
sipping chilled beer. But of someone searching for his beliefs, what of what he know should he believe in or should he keep searching for something that might come.

Pel'meni party
Pel'meni is Russian specialty.
Its basically meat balls coated with flour, boiled. They say its best with Vodka :) It was awesome! The invitees were Russian speakers only, though I dont speak Russian I enjoyed the food!
At the party there was also that fish salad(the salad in which they put salted fish as such(without cooking), however the fish element was very less, so it was also tasting good for me.

Chineese chopsticks
It interesting to lean how to catch Chinese chopsticks in a club, no not a Chinese girl.Its interesting when you stand next to 2 Czech girls, your friend talking to them, once in a while i say a word when they ask or speak in English, rest of the time i am trying chopstick trick with two straws on the lemon piece in my cub Libra(vodka cola and lime). And guess what, I learned the trick perfectly in 3 hours standing next to 2 beautiful Czech girls at 3 am. Hurray!

No music while walking!
Listening to music while walking is now prohibited.
Since last Sunday (February 1st) Slovakian streets have new laws to reinforce road safety; lower speed limits and higher fines are two of the new measures, and now Listening to music while walking is now prohibited.
Can you belive it????
I used to have this thought "It happens only in India" always, but this is weired , i guess i should change the quote to "shit happens everywhere"
Cheers!

Morning was muffled, the horizons had no light. Warm air filled The house from the heat from the central heating system, but outside snow was shattered all around. He had to wake up earlier than usual, it was 6.15 am when his alarm went off from his mobile. He took a long
bath in hot water, which he loved to do everyday since the winter started.
Sanu arrived 15 minutes early for the appointment at the Foreign Police, the rough sketched map found handier than expected. The girl from the agency who was supposed to meet him and assist through the process was still not there. He continue listening to songs from Dill6
with the default earphone of his iaudio player in the cold.
"delloit" asked a girl with red shaded hair
"Monster" I replied.
"oh, ano. Please " she had mellow eyes, it was evident that she didn’t know any English even though she had not spoken much. The one and half hour wait followed
they spoke about different subjects, she spoke in Czech and he spoke less in English and more in
actions.
He recollected she saying "Czech people are nebezpečný(dangerous), they could kill"
she wanted to go away from Prague and live in London!. at least that’s what he understood,
Did you hear that, London! Leaving Prague!
She wants to start her life outside Prague and settle somewhere else. Its true with all nationalities I guess, earlier my thought that only in India ,people feel of going outand working or settle because of its present condition. Many people I met wants the same,
One person from the Ukraine dont wants to settle in Ukraine but in Prague, One person from
Mexico wants to settle in France, another one from Prague went to work in Ukraine...and many more
And as a conclusion, there is not conclusion, only that
Humans are complex!

Snow Army
When I woke up today in the morning, it was snowing.
Yesterday was different from typical friday nights, I didnt drink and I didnt go out.Obviously you get up early enough on saturday, when i say early ..early like. 8 o clk. There are patterns for snow fall, its logical to have patterns for snow because i knw that rains has it. But today i noticed a magical pattern of snow, instead of flying down, the snow flakes were moving more of a horizontal path than vertical one. It was like one is going in search of something, however when there was many snow flakes, it gave the impression of an army attacking and conquering my land.
it was beautiful.

Part 2: Always Sunset on third street
Impressed with the movie i found out there was a 2nd part released in 2007. I found it.
The second part opens good and gives you the same feeling as the first. It even makes
you nostalgic about the first movie. The director dont introduces his characters again,
he just goes forward with them and add new characters. Though I knew how the story
would go from the beginning , every minute of the movies was worth the watch.
8.0 out of 10 !!

Two Importatnt things in Life!
I was searching my email for an old mail and i stumbled upon this one. I am posting a extract from the email I sent to a friend.
Here----
first of all that was a very long mail.....
whatever we do in this life ....i believe the
final call should be ours......
we have to decide what wee need....
we should set our priorties.....
then there is no harm in it...but where we usuallly
fails is there when our priorties changes we feel that
what we did was fooolish..so the most important thing
should be careful in choosing our priorties....
second one is that we should make sure others are not
affected badly by our decisions.we should not force
someone to do soemthing they dont like......and sure
we should not bring in ego while making a decison.
there two things i belive is important.
then you had your priortyies you you did that
way.......and i am sure that there is not going any
change whether you work for a small comapny or big
one.....and atleast a few wont feel that way.
keeping words is the best thing a man can do and
verry difficult...... be proud that you kept your
words ...... but the important thing is that ..think
twice before you give a word.......
its foolish to stick to a word which was given without
thingking causing us damage ..so need to think before
giveing a words.
what ever your decisons you took was up to u..
