I intend to write no serious posts.But, it has always fascinated me what happens behind the doors of the houses when I walk across any. Lives and stories interest me! I wonder when I see a couple smile..are they always like this?After a year of marriage , i chuckle to myself 'I turned out to be so lucky ?!!'Now, thats great news and a positive way to begin my post.
After a year of marriage I've learnt..Lemme see..Lemme try listing them!
Silent waters run deep.Strong and deep understanding of each other , makes a quiet ,happy relationship. Relationship i felt, is like a growing child.Needs attention,grooming , sacrifices, unconditional love and pampering! Give out all the love you can and it never fails to make you rich with the same! Rome was not built in a day.Same with relationships, they grow and strengthen with time.No point in rushing things up. I think i need to stop.Woah! Dont I sound as if i've been married ages or like a grand old lady.Well..nothing wrong in sharing what we learn through this wonderful journey called life. Atleast one thing for sure that I have learnt is the age old classical belief..Yes!I completely agree that men are from Mars and women from Venus.Yes we wives are different from the husbands.A lot different I must say.I like to talk.He likes to watch TV.I like to talk.He likes to surf the net.I like to hear the same things over and over again and he's realised that it makes me so happy to hear that Im all he loves and lives for.So he says that over and over again. I look beneath ,under , above and in between words and he see's just the words.I must give credit to my husband for bearing with the likes of me.I am a women and ya..I get cranky,i whine,im needy , I get shots of emotional imbalances, I have tears ready to come out anytime and anywhere, I cant help it,other beautiful women make me sick, I cant stop hearing that im the best for you and yes Im posessive no matter what; your friends, your computer, your work , your favourite game or anything...I need to know what you're doing and that Im in your thoughts!! On the other hand , the Martian has his flavour to life too!!But no matter where we come from Mars or Venus, its wonderful to be together and get your perfect match. The more and more I realise how different we are, the more and more i realize how common we are in the fact that we can do anything for each other!
Cheers to one year of marriage and loads of fun and a little wisdom(I enjoy saying that,Don't I?!)!! :-)
Mother of Mine..
Mothers are so special.I treasure my mother cos to me she's special. She doesnt have a career that she could trade money with, she is not somebody whose name appears on the societies most talked about, she doesnt boast of any special skill to sing or any art. She gave her life to two little angels that she prized more than anything in the world. She was there waiting for me with steamy hot lunches every afternoon at school.She was waiting me and my sister at the school gates with such a warm smile to greet us and ask us about our day. She pampered and put our needs ahead of hers. She wanted us to have all that she couldnt have and all that she had. She was happy to see the light in my eyes and love in my heart.I married and I flew away from her like birds with new wings flying out. Its your life she says and as always you'll do great. I dont know where she gets the confidence in me when I myself start doubting about me.Every step I ve been through this far, she was the first to beleive in me. Well, I guess she believed in me from the time I cried when she delivered me. I know mothers for everybody are like this .But, its just that Im reminded of my mother and Im happy I have her.
Caring, loving and selfless
Im always her little princess.
Daily she waits to start and end her day with my voice
Her thoughts are pinned to me no matter what she tries
Never has there been a day without her thoughts
Loaded us with happiness lots
I remember her early morning kisses on my forehead
Though she was loaded with problems to dread
Celebrated my every walk,talk,fight and my hundred little wins
Which she stood next to me, proud, decorated with her wide grin
'Thats my star' I could hear her say
No matter what we did, night and day
Got us together through times tough and bad
There was her smile and strength ,warding anything sad
When I have a life in me one day
"Thats my star" to my baby I will say
When she would be old
Her hand I would hold
"Mom, you're my star " I will say
Happy mothers day!
My First Week Of Work In Canada
The post is as on March 12th 2010.
The first's in anyones life is always so exciting and memorable.
Its exactly a week since I started working as a Quality Assurance Analyst in Canada and its been a memorable week so far.I was excited.I was nervous.But, i guess the excitement overpowered all the other feelings inside me.
I was determined to be there on time.Krish was a darling, all through my job hunt, my interviews and this one week of work,he shone again as a the best partner one could ever get.
Almost a year of being a homemaker and with Krish having a great project in his first year of married life, we rarely woke up anytime before 7:30.It probably would be the most relaxed year of our lives.So getting up at 6 was quite a challenge.Sprung out of bed and ya I did get the feeling.. this is how it was going to be every other day from now.I was working!My first day and Krish was excited too. We took turns to take a shower.I made lunch.Krish helped me pack.I was running around like a maniac with a straightening rod in my hand and a blow drier loud in the background. The powder room was littered with lipsticks and blushes.Cleaned them up.Prided myself on my appearance at the end.I looked professional.Whether i was going to maintain this always , i dont know, but my first day, yes!I looked neat, crisp ,with formals ,a pair of high heeled shoes and straightened long hair that settled well on my frame.I was ready. My handbag with a load of cosmetics , a neatly packed small lunch bag and an iphone plugged to my ears.I was ready to start my day. Krish dropped me half the way.He was so proud of me.Happy at last that his wife would not bother him that much any more. He was'nt sure of that anyway! I enjoyed my train ride.How i always wondered and envied the women so dressed up and hustling for work. Today I was one among them.Hurrying across the subway, i reached my office.Its fun that my first job here is in downtown. The crowd. The trains were full. All men and women dressed for the day ready to make money and make some decisions for people whom they dont even know!Its strange. If you really write down what people do to make a living (not their titles!they all seem so complicated)you'll be amazed at the list. Ok now, back to my first day. I reached all in time. There were calls from mom,dad, sister, parents in law...all wishes for a great start.I guess that's why you need family too because they can make your days mean more than they actually are.I entered the big 16 floor building.It is right near the sea.So you can see the snow peaked mountains and the sea from the entrance and a clear blue sky with loads of big buildings silhouetted against it.A great start i thought to myself.After a brief ride with the elevator , with strangers connected to each other that we 're set for a 8hr journey of work today.
Rang the bell and i was received.The Director, who hired me, gave a tour to all the people who worked there. Felt great and the environment was very friendly. The lady with whom I was supposed to work made life easy. I found myself settling into this new world easily and smoothly.So far everything was great.I even went out on a team lunch. The first thing you would notice working in the west is the relaxed atmosphere completely void of hierarchies and rules. The work culture was very informal and people just did their stuff anyway. It was great to watch and learn how it works here.
It was a great day, spiced with a team lunch and bit of work.At half past five in the evening, as I travelled down the building , i just said to myself..'not bad,i had a great day'.
The next week just rushed past.Learnt a lot. Struggled with juggling between work and home. Krish was awesome all throughout. Time just flew.Now i understand what weekends are really for :-). After a year at home , it did finally feel great to be out with the world making money and just keeping busy!!
