mantra (of the year)!

yeah... i know its not a time like new years or anything to be putting up resolutions and jazz... but then that's what this is about... i did not want to keep the 'of the year' part either, but then just for the sound of it... see don't we complication for absolutely no reason???
well this is it....

'keep it simple!'

variety?

In the past month and a half, I have seen a number of movies... in different languages.
french, italian, spanish... (with subtitles), and somehow realise that every region has a different way of narration. Its stunning how beautiful the and strong their direction is. Its just another class. Makes me look back at our good old bollywood and feel, wow, we have a completely different style!
I'm happy that I'm not oscillating between the hollywood and bollywood... I'd not have understood the lot of parts I easily overlooked or did not even know existed.
Guess art cannot be ignored.
Diversity adds value.

to be or not to bee

Was watching this movie, but did not seem interesting enough to hold my attention... but in the little that i saw, one dialogue....

Would you want to be a butterfly or a bee??!
Do you want to look pretty and flutter about, attracting everyone's attention or do you want to go about making some honey.

well... can be read in more ways than one for sure! :)

Phoren

After
Pan in Ilford,
Onion Pakodas from Morrisons,
Diwali in Dublin
and
Balaji in Birmingham...
who says, I'm in phoren land.
:P

winter...

is here...
when you realise that cheeks are a part of your body...
when tired feet can make your energy dissipate at an exponentially higher rate...
when breathing looks like smoking...
when you don't care if the layered clothing is making you look fatter...
when juice is not half as much fun as tea...
when its time to pay attention to your fingers... (holds true even for the guys)
