Happy Womens Day

To all the wonderful women who have touched my lives and make everyday of mine worth living.
To the one who brought me into the world.
To the one who fought with me when I went to school.
To the one with whom I shared my secrets.
To the one who will take my hand.


I just wanna say, "I love you all and my life would be incomplete w/o you."


Wishing you all a very Happy Womens Day.


With only Love,
Danish

Random Lines - er!!

Had a really gr8 day today. Went to Office early in the morning, came back early too. I'm was so excited to return back home early today. Came back home and after watching a few cartoons, was off to fetch my dinner and shop for the nightly dose of milk. It was cold outside which made me hum the following lines:


The night is cold, mornings Colder;
Am I now getting Older;
Do I need support from a Holder;
Or will I stand like a Boulder.


This is just a stanza when compared to my earlier works (All Poems); however I feel that this is ok to begin the New Year.

A Brand New Year - The Beginning

For most of them, the feel of the New Year kicks in on the New Year's Eve!!! I was no exception. Let me write on what happened after I left office on 31st till this moment when I planned to start blogging again (Kinda New Year resolution)

19:30 - Went home, took a shower, wore New Clothes, packed a couple of things and started my journey towards Madiwala.

20:30 - St. Antony's Friary. Sermon was in progress when I reached the Church. Enjoyed singing along with the choir and had the satisfactory feeling of starting the year with God!!!

21:00 - Met up with a few friends @ Church.

21:30 - Met Akki and collected the chocolates which she owed me for a long time. She came all the way from Coimbatore to Bangalore to keep her promise (All smiles)

22:00 - Dinner with Sis and BIL. 3 dishes of Pork.. (Yummy!!! A really nice way to start the year)

00:00 - Back @ my sister's place. Opened an account in FB. (5nally after a lot of my friends requested me to be available in FB)

03:30 - Blogging all this.

FB Mania:

     Guys, thanks a ton for forcing me to FB.. I had a really good first impression. BTW, I've send request to every single one of you who forced me.. :)

New Year Resolutions:

     More blogging/ reading/ playing

     Less tummy... I need to work on this.

B4 I sign off for the night, lemme wish everyone of you a very Happy and Prosperous New Year 2011 :)

The Feeling of Love

Tears flowing down my cheek
    My phone stopped to beep
The Joy that I had
    Once; made me mad
Rain that I enjoyed
    Once; made me glad
Now the same rain, tears me apart
    Making a cavity in my heart
Oh my God!! I'm feeling the pain
    Every time I see a rain
I think of her & there's no one to blame
    No one but me is to be blamed

To finish it off in such a fame.
To finish it off in such a way..
    That it haunted me back with a feeling of love

Why do we call it the feeling of love...
When there is nothing lovable about it..

Danish :)

Perfection

        I am just one step away from attaining perfection. "Being myself" is the only thing which stops me being perfect.

A Responsorial Psalm well sung

        I've go to church every* Sunday and I do sing the Responsorial Psalm. However, today was a special day wherein I sung in it's true meaning (with full emotion):-P.

Reason: I did my exams really really bad.

        Today's recital was from the book of Psalms, Chapter 22, Verses 1 to 11. For those people who would like to hear it from me, here it goes:

        My God, my God, Why have you forsaken me?

Danish :)

Moral: I have to study for my exams after all.

To do the right thing

        You have to do what you have to do and not what the heart desires. By doing what you have to do, you always do the right thing.

Love – chance or choice

      Hi there, Happy Valentine’s Day.. On this day, I would like to share my views on Love; whether it happens by chance or by choice (or both.)

      Most of us think and believe that love happens only by choice. People in Love will definitely agree to it coz they chose their partner. Kudos to ‘em. However, I would like to say that if it was not for chance, you may not have chosen them at all. Let me explain with an example:

      Who do we love the most? “Our Parents” would be the definite answer. We all love our parents. Now answer this, “If they were not your parents, would you still have loved them as you are doing it now?”

      The most likely answer to that question would be “Maybe” but not a definite “Yes.” It is by chance that we met them (in this case, being created by them) and we chose to love them.

      Life is short and we have limited chances to meet the one that we all wait for. Few of them find this love in the form of their beloved, a few in the form of friends, sister, brother, etc... Hope you have utilized this chance in finding the one you love (Could be more than one too.) Take this opportunity today and say “I love you” to the ones you love.

      Once again, wishing you all a very Happy Valentine’s day..

Love, Danish :)

Firefox 3.6 and Personas

    Whew!! Last night I successfully completed installing Firefox 3.6 in both my home & at work. Now, that I have the power of 3.6 @ my disposal let me try some new features. Hmmm!! I have never been a lover of Themes because I preferred performance over looks. What this, something called as Personas… Hmmm!! Interesting.. I could just see ‘em by a simple mouse roll-over. This could be it!! :D

    I installed the Personas Add-on (http://tinyurl.com/cu4y2b) by Mozilla.. This went on fine, no issues, and created the urge in me to explore more Personas. However, to my dismay I found that after using a specific Personas (Don’t want to mention the name), my FF 3.6 boot time got reduced. Earlier, it used to start in less than a sec but now after installing that crap-work, it took me nearly a min for me to get my FF 3.6 started. I then decided to remove personas. Hope this article will help ppl to do the same. Remove personas. To do that go to Tools –> Add-ons –> Themes and uninstall the crap which is creating trouble.

    The one cool feature which I found in FF 3.6 is the security feature. Click on the FavIion on the Address bar to get the basic info on the site. Clicking on more info takes you to a Page Info window where you can get detailed info. This is a good one.. Way to go FF team.

    Anxiously waiting for FF4.. Pls don make me wait long…………

Backup Plan – Part 3

    The second Question that I have asked  previously was “How many times in our life have we always done what we first wanted? (What we first wanted is always Plan ‘A’)” If this question does not make any sense to you read the following articles before continuing on this one.

• My Comeback: http://danishthomas.blogspot.com/2010/01/my-comeback.html
• Backup Plan – Part 1: http://danishthomas.blogspot.com/2010/01/backup-plan-part-1.html
• Backup Plan – Part 2: http://danishthomas.blogspot.com/2010/01/backup-plan-part-2.html

    Answering to my second question on backup plans, I have followed Plan ‘A’ a very few times and that is when:

1. I made someone happy.
2. I loved someone.
3. I gave something.
4. I saw happy tears.
5. I filled and felt goodness all around us.

    Again, when I couldn’t keep Plan ‘A’, I kept moving thru the secondary plans and at times fell over to Plan ‘END’, and that is when I:

1. Broke relations.
2. Hate someone.
3. Ruined my respect and trust.
4. Made people cry.
5. Made everyone’s life around miserable.

    Somewhere between these two plans lie all other plans like ‘B’, ‘C’, ‘D’ and so on which gives me the satisfaction that I can be just a normal being. (neither a Saint(Plan ‘A’) nor a Sinner (Plan ‘END’))

    This satisfaction that I received by using “Backup Plans” created a belief in me that skipping Plan ‘A’ can be at times good.

    This is the end of line for my thoughts that arose when I started to write this article. I had a few questions when I started and now I have the answers for them. Look forward to my Q & A section tomorrow and thanks for reading this.
