Well today was just cleaning my shelf & while discarding some  unwanted papers , i found a very old photograph of mine.That photo succeeded in bringing an instant smile on my face .I couldn't help but laugh at my sense of style back then -an orange round neck t-shirt totally not complementing my blue denim short skirt, a shoddy bobbed hair cut ,a pair of brown slippers , a dull white pearl chain & eye shades (which i think was a free gift for purchasing bournvita !) were my accessories & not to forget the sheepish look which i wore !! ...........
I suddenly decided to get all those old albums  & go in a rewind mode .[or rather just wanted to keep the fun going ;) ] And i should tell you that it was one of the best decisions I've taken in my life !
So there i was looking at the "1yr old me" deep in sleep , "3yr old me" safely seated between "my daddy strongest" and my "very cute mamma" ,a "5yr old me" and "11yr old bro" eyeing for a piece of one of our b'day cakes , a 'school going' me in neat uniform ,kerchief pinned on one side ,giving a toothy smile from a class photo ,my friends all surrounding me -all giving their smiles to me :)) and so on........................................
I guess it took me around 3hrs to put back those albums after giving each pic a satisfying look ..., but that 10,80,000 seconds i re-lived all those moments ...............
And as you know ,there is no stop to man's desires ,i went on to glance through my old scrap-books ,greeting cards ,letters received ,unposted letters ,report cards (which i think i shouldn't have bothered to see !) ,rough notes with all those mid-class chatters written & so on.......all leaving the same nostalgic feeling...........
Well this is no great piece of article or anything ,but the feeling behind writing this surely is ..........
And i have some free advice for you :why don't you re-live your moments today ?? have fun :) chow !

I wish I could write a solid piece of article on the current trending topic - LLMs! Instead I'm one letter short and here to talk more about LLs 😁 Gary Chapman, an American author and talk show host is credited and best known for his concept of the five love languages that humans use to express and receive love. They are:  Words of affirmation Quality time Gifts Acts of service Physical touch While it is established that people use all of these languages to some degree, a person will primarily speak one of these love languages. We all have different ways of expressing our love and have specific ways in how we want to be loved.  Perhaps this is one of the most profound concepts that can explain why relationships fall apart without placing blame on either of the parties involved. Sometimes, we fail to understand how to love the person we already love so that they also know it and then sometimes, there's a conflict/ trade-off involved where despite wanting to love someone the way

 It's Friday night and I had a horrible, long and tiring day at office.F inally, at 8.30pm after almost 12 straight hours of being at office and working for the day, when I got up, my slogging ass thanked me for releasing it off the pressure for a few minutes :D I expected the traffic to be better but who was I kidding? Bangalore Traffic! on a Friday night! Better?? *add a loud monstrous sarcastic evil laughter* MY FOOT!!! Riding back, thanks to the dark streets minus streetlights, as*****s who drive with high beam within city limits and potholes which are the size of a manhole, I had numerous moments where I thought today was the last day of my life on this wretched planet but guess the universe isn't done with me yet! Finally, after what seemed an hour of riding to cover a distance well within 10kms, I almost reached home if not for spotting a newly opened cafe. And suddenly, there was this beautiful thought inside my head to go on a date with myself!! I know right! That '

This week I finally watched "The Waiting". Although I am ashamed that I took almost three years to watch a movie that I was waiting to watch right from the time I read about its concept on paper, I am happy I finally did. The movie stars two of my all-time favorites - Naseeruddin Shah and Rajat Kapoor along with Kalki Koechlin who inspires me with the simplest fact that she is much more than a fair skinned pretty lady. In this movie, she has turned lyricist for the beautiful song named 'Waiting for you'. The movie is about how two characters meet in a hospital environment and bond while waiting for their loved ones to get better. You get to see how powerful hope is, when that is all you get to have by your side. Oh! that is not the only thing obviously, you do have the fake promises of a doctor, shallow reassurances of a friend and a hesitant insurer with you whenever you don't want them. But the one thing that kept lingering on my mind even after the movie, wa
