Muft Baithhe Bithhaaye...

I have been was trying to understand for the past few days as to why people around want to spoil my moments of joy by expressing their disatisfaction of how things were handled.

Mujhpe Toofaan Uthaaye Logon Ne
Muft Baithhe Bithhaaye Logon Ne
Kar Diya Apne Aane Jaane Ke
Tazkiren Jaayein Jaayein Logon Ne
Mujhpe Toofaan Uthaaye Logon Ne


And then my search on www leads me to this Yahoo Q&A -

Resolved Question
Wedding to please others....impossible to make everyone happy?

I am engaged to a great guy, and I can't wait to marry him. However, planning a wedding has turned into a contest in how many people I can offend. I just want to get married... is there a way to do that beautifully without the need for others to be offended by things that are/not being done?

Bottom line - it's your wedding. If you're footing the bill, then no one can dictate how things are done. Sit down with your fiance, and you two decide what you want. Then, TOGETHER, as a team, tell your family and friends what your decisions are. If they try to make suggestions, gently tell them you appreciate their input but you two have made up your minds and hope that they will support your decision. You two need to be able to look back at your wedding day and be elated as to how it went - not ticked 'cause you didn't do what you two really wanted.

Congrats and good luck!


So here's me wishing myself good luck to remain sane enough to make the most appropriate choices in a hope that..

If wishes were....

As you are standing close, holding fingers…. suddenly the photographer says, "Ok, please move away from each other.."
As you are in the lift, catching up with each other.. the doors slide opens and another person enters in
As you are looking into each others eyes… the mobile phone vibrates…
As you are getting totally lost in each other while talking.. the cab honks the horn and announces its arrival..

Aaargh……the photographer, the unwanted lift companion, the friend trying to reach out, the daily cab.. were all spoilers..

Hmm.. Now what if everything went just the way we wanted…
If every desire fulfilled..
Every need satisfied…
Then what would we live for..

Maybe we could still find means and ways to “evolve” in this world..
Or maybe we can be laid back and enjoy our good fortune..
Or maybe we could rub a little of our joy into some one who doesn’t get everything the way we do…

Still there seem to choices… or … or is everything already planned… and only that we are made to believe that we are making the choices.. but again why would someone wanna fool us.. what would they gain!!!

Could it be that the way life teases us.. is what drives us and excites us to keeps on going.. These spoilers are there around and so are the signs, to make us appreciate what “would have been” just happiness… to be now experienced as utmost bliss…

So should i be thankful for “the photographer, the unwanted lift companion, the friend trying to reach out, the daily cab”…

Well… i think i should be.. Otherwise i would have been just happy "riding" a horse….

The catch!!!

Everything seems to fit it purrfectly well.. But that was something I couldn’t believe.. there has to be something wrong. There has to be a catch.. I have been trying to find out that for a few days.. and then atlast I gave up and said.. Alright, things are ok, so I should stop worrying myself for nothing……. After that its has been going really crazy…. its euphoria, too many people to talk to when I was enjoying my solitiude, moments of distraction, flare ups, to do lists, putting up with people’s mood swings, preparations , shopping, advices to listen to, formalities to perform, and so much more.. At some moments ,I feel like wanna just put down and my foot down and say, I don’t wanna do anything…. That’s it….

And then I listen to a voice… and somehow… everything seems worth it… And there , my friend reminds me, is what I was looking for.. there is the “catch”….
