The Crazy Stupid Love of DDLJ

Love is just like Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaenge..

Though we know about half a dozen flaws, and a dozen practically impossible scenarios,

still we continue going back to and enjoying it time and again…

Love is getting fooled again and again,

knowing the flaws and glitches,

knowing that it may or may not last..

But still being there,

trying to enjoy the magic of pheromonal magnetism,

as long as it is there.

Bah.. the stupid crazy destructive love..

(Dedicated to a destroyed friend - one way or the other :p
May you find your solace)

But thanks to the divine illustrations by Suddhasattwa Basu, I felt as if I was sitting in Lodi Gardens while reading this one, surrounded by fragrance and chitterings. 🌸 So read this one to get to k...

From Pique to Peace

Hey lovely people How are you all doing? Any news? No news? Well that does mean good news, because no news is good news *wink wink* But these days, we have even stopped talking about bad news. Sometimes out of insecurity, other times out of the fear of being laughed at. In my case too, I would hide any bad happening in my life whenever I can, just for the (innocent) pleasure of snatching that victorious smirk, that flutters for a second, on the ill facades of "well wishers" when they get to know about your bad times. Haha! Who needs paying for spiritual motivational classes (synonym - phony religious ashrams) after this. I already let out their trade secret - be the smug jerk, who though may be having a terrible break up or suffering a boring marriage, who might be in debt upto his eyes, or might be flunking all the college subjects, but would still rub the face of the world in dirt by telling them about his contentment and newfound bliss, new diet or regime a...
