Well , today i am very happy . The reason is that - it had been raining all night . In delhi we get very few showers in any given year . This year was also going in the same way . But since last 2-3 days the weather has shown signs of change . Even 2 days ago also , it had rained during the night . One thing to note here is that in delhi it rains in small areas at a time . It is very uncommon situation to see the whole delhi drenched in rain in the same time ( though sometimes it happens ) . So sometimes my husband would tell me that it had rained in the locality of his office , whereas i have experienced only a cloudy sky here throughout the whole day . I am really relaxed today , finally watching rain from my window .
Another point to remember is - as i am not in a job right now , i am enjoying the rain . But if i had to go anywhere then i think i wouldn't have welcomed rain with such a high spirit . In fact , then i wouldn't have given that much importance to rain so as to write a post on it ... Because i don't love to get wet at all (i am really serious ) .
This weekend i have seen 2 films of one of my favourite martial arts star - Jet li . The films are ROMEO MUST DIE and ROUGE ASSASSIN . I enjoyed both the films .
With this good mood i am finishing my post today . Do let me know your views about rain and getting wet .

NO SPECIFIC TOPIC OR ROUTINED LIFE
What actually does this heading mean ??? Is it one heading or two ???
I don't know myself .
Right now , I don't have anything to write about . Mainly because i am feeling a bit low since last 2-3 days . So i am slightly irregular in blog-posts these days .
The reason -- : Actually i have wrote here previously that i love a routined life . But for some reason or other since last few days i could not follow my routine , which helps you to do many things in a given time .
Because a routine assigns some specific time , so you become engrossed and try to complete the given work . Simultaneously you don't worry about other works because they are alredy in your day's list . Thus routine enhances productivity . At least according to my point of view .
But ok , routine-bound life can become boring . I agree to it . But to me (having a practical outlook ) to survive in this world you need to work . And to complete work on time you need to follow a plan . If you feel monotonous , give yourself a break . I often do it . Let not your intellect but your mind decide what to do and don't force it to do anything particular . It will choose something relaxing . And this will give you pleasure . This rest period can go on for a couple of days also , when you take life a bit easily . So this is my mantra for utilising TIME in a proper way .
Coming back to the original topic --: Becuase i can't follow the routine these days , i am feeling sad . This sentence is so childish !!!!! Why actually do we think that everything in our daily life will follow a pattern ? You know when i started writing this post i was not sure about the composition of my topic . Now i think it is quite clear to me .
The lesson --: I am realising that it is important to use the time . But if a reason (like power-cut , guests etc ) prevents you from following the schedule , then just accept it . Move on and do the next chore . Otherwise while you are sad and think about the previous work which was not done , the time for next work will also be lost .
Do let me know your views on this topic .

SUNSHINE
Today i am going to write about one of my most favourite topic - SUNSHINE . Well , how to start the topic ? I really don't remember when i first started to love SUNSHINE , but i think it was from my teenage days. By looking at sunshine i always felt warm and joyful . Why ? I don't know . From my childhood i have never been an early-riser . But after i used to get up from bed i made it a point to open the windows (to their widest angles) to let the rays of the sun come into my house as much as possible .
After my marriage , i gradually changed my habit and started rising early . I just loved to see the sunrise . Usually the sun used to emerge behind the flat in front of our house . (Come on , we all live in a city which are full of multistoried buildings ; the sun always does not have an option to rise in a beautiful valley ...) . But there was a problem ; as i was doing a job - i could not enjoy the quite and serene nature . I had to hurry - to get ready , to make breakfast and to start my day . But still i used to look at the sun often .Then throughout the whole day i kept looking at the nature(outside world ) from the windows of my class .I always feel good to see the DAY , if i can say so.
Now when i am at home , i have the whole time left to myself . I get up early , and go to the kitchen or balcony . I can watch the sunrise everyday while making tea for me and my husband . As the DAY starts , it makes my day . I really don't know why is it so , but it is a fact .
In fact i can bear summer a lot more than winter . Many people around me get fed -up with sun and summer , but i don't feel like that . I love sun and sunshine . And in the winter i really feel the absence of sunshine ( and its heat also ) . It always lifts my mood .Even when i come out of any ac office / showroom /storeroom to an open place in the daylight - i feel bissful in its true sense .
After reading this long story , I think all of you have got an idea why SUNSHINE ON MY SHOULDERS by JOHN DENVER is one of my favourite songs . Specially these lines --
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high
If i had a day that i could give you
I'd give to you a day just like today
If i had a wish that i could wish for you
I would make a wish for the sunshine all the while.
with warm wishes for you all

WHAT AM I DOING ?
Yes that is a tough question for me . After coming back from my hometown i haven't yet started my regular/pending routined chores . Why ? I don't know . I am like that . Sometimes i just let myself go in whatever direction it (my mind ) wishes to take . Which means facing its consequences also !!! for instance , if i don't do the dusting regularly - we have to live in a slightly dirty home ; if i don't wash my clothes -then next time i have to wash double number of clothes....like that . I know everything , but still i am not feeling any urge to go and start my daily routine . Now a days i am doing only minimum amount of work which is needed to run a house smoothly.
Now why is it so ? (i.e. -what is the reason behind my this unique attitude?) There are 2 reasons , but one is related to the other .OK , No more of this playing with words . Actually since i wrote my last entry in this blog , i have been reading about MAHABHARAT and LORD KRISHNA . You may ask why have i suddenly started to read about these topics . The reason is , recently i was watching B.R. CHOPRA's MAHABHARAT on the television . Though i have watched the it before but i love this particular series . Gradually i stared an interest to know more about the stories , the characters - so i started to search the net to read more about it (the clashes , the lessons and so on ) .
The story regarding my interest in LORD KRISHNA is somewhat same but there is slight difference also . I REALLY loved the character of KRISHNA (who can forget NITISH BHARADWAJ ? ) when i watched the series , but recently i heard a number of talks about LORD KRISHNA . I was really surprised to find out so many special qualities in such a known character . It is becoming too overwhelming for me to express , but somehow i was awestruck by the symbolisms of LORD KRISHNA . From then on i am reading about HIM .
Now i guess you got an idea what am i doing all these days . May be i will start a blog on MAHABHARAT and LORD KRISHNA . I have not decided yet . Today i am becoming too much subjective while writing the blog . I hope you'll understand my present state of mind .
Now it is raining in delhi after a long time . I am going to watch the rain from my window. So it is bye for now .

I AM BACK
So after 2 weeks i am back from my journey . These days i am in a middle stage . Now let me explain that unique term used by me . Actually what i mean to say is that now though i am back from my native town , but my mood has not yet accustomed itself with delhi . I am unpacking my bags , going through each and every articles i 've brought , remembering the people and places - like that- i am still living more in a shadow of my visit than in delhi . It will take some more days to get tuned to my delhi life . It happens after every visit , i know it quite well . It is another version of the famous home sickness . Though i am a practical person , but sometimes i do tend to feel these emotions .Believe me - I took a break of 2-3 days , doing nothing (only minimum household works) after i came back , but i think i need 3-4 days more to start my daily routine bound life in delhi . (I just love routined life ) . I really need to catch up with my pending works . So i am trying to cheer up myself !!!
Enough of all this - what am i doing today ?
1. I am reading the latest books brought by me.
2. I am cooking after a along break (today i made mix veg-potato , carrot , peas ) .
3. I have watched 2 hrs of tv today .
And at last i should and must thank God for being with me throughout the whole visit , it is because of HIM that my visit was successful , that i met so many friends and relatives , i spent a great time . Though HE is always with us but we should always be grateful for HIS blessings .

Yes , i have reached my hometown.This time i came here after one and a half years . I am really a HAPPY SOUL right now .
I have my childhood memories here , i am remembering my growing up years , my school - college - university --- YES , this is the city i can identify with . I am meeting my family , friends and relatives . I really don't have much time left to blog . So these days i am a bit irregular in my blog post . This is a time to reconnect with my past - i am cherishing every moment of it. Also i am enjoying visiting various places and eating traditional bengali food.
Best wishes to you all from a happy soul ,
