Just another beautiful day

Alright guys, here’s my new blog post after a really long gap. You guys might be surprised where I have been for the past few months. The fact is that I was no more interested in blogging except that this supposedly great virtue of mine cud help me see where I’m and what I’m doing. Because there’s no sense in aiming at where you want to go or where you want to be,without knowing where you are now. Its definitely something to ponder. Isn’t it?? Anyway,the reason for this new post is that I was afraid a lot. Afraid of any little bit chance of forgetting what happened yesterday bcoz its something I cudn’t just let go off my mind. I want to grasp it firmly sothat it cud be a guideline for life. Jan 22nd and 24th,2011 are two beautiful days in my life. And there are lot many reasons for that. First of all,I happened to meet a great person who is from around my native place,Madurai, Tamil Nadu. Dr Manimozhi sir(as his name was) looked something different. He’s just the way I always wanted to be. His love for his own profession and for his own mother institution are greatly interesting to me. To say about him,he is a old student of Kurnool Medical College(Must be one of the senior-most doctors) and he says that he was staying at Guntakal(where my parents were staying for more than 6 yrs) until 1985 or so. He’s now a consultant Leprologist/Epidemiologist who I guess is now residing in Bengalooru. He used to work for WHO(World Health Organisation) but later he quit that job as he says WHO is purely a political body which he never liked at all. Later,he joined ILEP(International Federation of Anti-Leprosy Association) and is still working for it.

To my surprise,Dr Manimozhi says,he used to be a loser during his college days and was a chronic referred student. Failed in exams so many number of times that he himself won’t believe what he’s now. But then he dares to say that the more number of times you fail,the greater person you’ll be in your life. May be he’s right bcoz Success is never final,and failure is never fatal,its the courage in moving from one failure to another failure that counts. But then,if you look at it broadly,it doesn’t seem to apply well in all the situations and to all the people. May be such people are one in a million. But one thing I can say for sure is that failure can make us strong. Well, if you already had suffered some amount of pain in your life,you are gonna withstand the same amount of pain or a weaker one the next time(atleast one can get used to it). Anyway,Dr Manimozhi is strongly determined about how he wants to be and what he wants to be. His way of teaching is just awesome. Anyone can be a good doctor but only few can become good teachers. Dr Manimozhi is one such kind of teacher. His power in giving a lecture is extraordinary. It just penetrates the skull and enters your brain and may never leave from there. He says if you want to see a change in someone,don’t just advise them,but make them realise what is right and they’ll automatically change by themselves.

The most pathetic of all is that he showed a lot of partiality towards me during these two days. Was cutting jokes on me,asking many questions to me,and was focussing on me a lot number of times. May be its bcoz of the regional feel since we both share a common native place. But personally,I feel like I’m given a huge responsibility of protecting myself from breaking the trust he has on me. And that wud just give me another golden opportunity to prove that my life is still worth something….

Happily back again

Hey folks hope everything is going well with all of u..Sorry guys for keeping this webspace dormant for a long time. And now I’m back with full of energy and enthusiasm. The reason being I’m a little confident about my career now. Hundreds and thousands of talks I wished I had shared with u people but yet I couldn’t..That was,infact,unfortunate for me as well..Anyhow, I’m back. And that itself would surely be a glad thing. Isn’t it? Anyway,the point now is how to resume our talk on this happy moment. Absolutely no idea. Mmmmm wait…May be I should start with one cool stuff which I came across today morning while surfing through this endless Internet. I think u people might already be aware of this. Shah Rukh Khan’s Wax statue at Madame Tussads..Wowwwww very cool to hear..He undoubtedly deserves it. May be even long back. So he looks awesome and look at this picture where he’s imitating his own replica..Funny. Isn’t it? Bollywood Badshah is ultimately standing in Madame Tussads though a little late.

Alright,here I’m,spending much of my time for some kind of useful stuff esp for my voluntary,purposeful work in the hospital and preparation for USMLE Step-1 Exam(Its something like a PG Entrance for doing PG in US) on the other side. I think I should be very optimistic now, for me to give the exam confidently and get a good score. At the same time,I consider being socially active as equally important. Because it can free our mind of tensions, stress and worries if any. Afterall, people say that sadness halves when shared with others and that the happiness doubles. So let me visit ur blogs(if any)as well, comment on ur posts,share some hot topics day-to-day,share our happiness and sadness with each other and ultimately lets make our journey appear really beautiful when we look back after some time. So what say?? Are u ready???

Memories I would cherish throughout my life

I still remember the day when I was beat badly by my father for having lied and went(along with a friend)to a party of one of my school teachers. I was around 9 years then. Probably,its my first physical torture. I made my parents very anxious as they couldn’t find me having enquired about me in almost every place in the town. I cursed them like anything for what they did to me then,but now having grown up,I can understand the love and affection they had and still have for me.
One of the most Inspirational people to me ever since my childhood is my uncle(mama) who stands as a best example of an Ideal brother,Ideal son,Ideal father,and morethan all,an Ideal human-being. His attitude and qualities are what I cherish to have forever in my life. I wonder how he learnt his business profession at a younger age of 13 years,how he had chosen to share the responsibilities of a huge family comprising three brothers,three sisters,father and mother. Hard-work,dedication,love and affection,selfless nature are some of the great virtues he is gifted with. I remember the days when he used to gift some really interesting toys to me and other children of my age in my huge family as if we are all his own children. Even today he cares a lot for me and for everyone among his siblings and their children. The traditional values that I learnt from him are still haunting me. Rather,I’m given a silent message that I need to pass these great virtues to my next generation by myself being passionate to them.

Give me some sunshine

Everyone will  have their own idea of what gives them a feeling of sunshine…To some its Job,while its Money to someother,good Life-partner to some, or a career achievement,popularity,good friends,good colleagues,good future…the causes are diverse…As for me, its really complicated to say.Its a blend of my professional and extracurricular aspects,which I alternate according to the situation and time.As for now, I’ve a long-term goal and a short-term one…Even the long-term goal is not absolutely long-term, but only relatively so because it isn’t that far to be pursued and obviously its of giving my Step-1 Exam.The short-term one,which appeared all of a sudden ahead of me just 2 days back is that of proving myself a good singer.But time is very very short for that. Nevertheless, I’m going to give it my best try. I think I can do it. Even if  I can’t do it now,I believe I can do it someother day. This is not just an abrupt decision that I’ve taken. Rather,I’ve been waiting since long back for such an opportunity. I think this the best time for me to struggle hard to achieve what,I believe,will give me the feeling of sunshine.Hope I won’t get disappointed too much by the result of my effort.

P.S. Very cute and talented girl singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in various accents…Must watch this…

Missing many movies at this moment

Hmmmmmmm no time to relax at all.Have around fifteen yet-to-watch,hopefully nice movies,readily available to me,and another twenty movies I’m keen to make available(by downloading or buying some DVDs)for leisure time watch.Afterall,I’m a Movie-bug right?Atleast that activity can make me believe that I’m still alive.But unfortunately,now-a-days,I’m facing an awkward situation.Having a weird experience which I never had before.Well,I think its really hard to describe my current hectic situation.Just because I’m socially active,don’t take it for granted that I’m really blissful.What I think you need to know is that recently I learnt to manage pretending to be happy and joyful even while surmounting a difficult situation.Whenever I decide and start to watch any one of those movies I have,I find myself to be anxious within 15 to 20 min.Get a feeling that I’m doing something which I’m not supposed to do at that particular moment. Is this what we call a ‘Hell’? No no why think negatively? May be I should take it as a reliable sign of the oncoming fortune as there’s a saying “No Pain..No Gain.” But yeah I got what exactly is running in your minds.Just because there’s pain,it doesn’t necessarily guarantee a gain.Does it???
On the brighter side,I got some really good friends recently,who are turning my days better and better and indirectly making my efforts feasible.Especially,the two Musicians from KM Music Conseravatory(A.R.Rahman’s Music school)and Mr Phani Kalyan,a Music Director who recently debuted in his recent Telugu movie.I think they matter to me a lot as I’m passionate about that particular field of activity.Would really be pleased to know how they are going through the various phases of their career.
