Its 28th July 2008, I am sitting in my Airoli office, and really bored! The weather outside is wonderful and romantic!! Its being raining in Mumbai for last 2 days now, and 2day its worst, & so, other branches left by 4:30pm! People are all waiting here for the time to turn to 6:45pm, so that every1 gets to go home! Rain has become a part n parcel of Mumbaites. But over the years what has being more palpable is the water logging!!!
If I recall, during the time when I used 2 go 2 school, every monsoon we used to just have 1 day when school would shut down during after like 3-4 lectures and all of us used to get all blissful & walk back home in rain and waist deep water logged!! But now a days, its like become 1 se in every month of all 4 months of monsoon! It’s sad to see, even when we say the country is moving ahead towards becoming an super power, something as necessary as drainage system is going from bad to worst! I still think of a good rainy day as a beautiful, quixotic day, but the fact is, there r millions on the streets of the city who will very easily loose their homes, worst are those who don’t have a house and die of cold and the water - born diseases! It’s really shame thinking about the current state of affairs of this country where 24 blasts happen within span of 48 hrs, and the citie’s financial capital has no choice but to shut down, due to rains.

My Silence
My Silence speaks
Though it doesn’t have words
My Silence is a conversation
Though it doesn’t sound
My Silence is profound
Though it mean superficial to others
My Silence is an expression
Though it cannot be heard
My Silence is my inner light.
Light that bridges the bay between my life's success
and my life's failures
My Silence is a presence
Presence of great nothingness
My Silence is a mystery
that will forever go unsolved
With my silence I hid the truth, expressing fear
Fear of hurting those who might not accept what I feel…
With my silence I hid my feelings, registering no care
Care for those who real mean to me….
With my silence I hid my thoughts, refusing to share
Share with those who can never understand me…
I hope of finding someone someday
who can understand the right meaning of my mind’s say
Though it doesn’t have words
My Silence is a conversation
Though it doesn’t sound
My Silence is profound
Though it mean superficial to others
My Silence is an expression
Though it cannot be heard
My Silence is my inner light.
Light that bridges the bay between my life's success
and my life's failures
My Silence is a presence
Presence of great nothingness
My Silence is a mystery
that will forever go unsolved
With my silence I hid the truth, expressing fear
Fear of hurting those who might not accept what I feel…
With my silence I hid my feelings, registering no care
Care for those who real mean to me….
With my silence I hid my thoughts, refusing to share
Share with those who can never understand me…
I hope of finding someone someday
who can understand the right meaning of my mind’s say

Last weekend was my 22nd Birthday, n since then I hvnt got time to blog this memeorable birthay!! So here it goes....
Put in my sister's words, she had planned a 48 hrs, birthday for me, from saturday morning to sunday evening! Saturday morning marked the sart of the "48hrs" birthday party! bro planned a 1 day trip to Lonavala(hilstn quite near 2 Mumbai)... June end marks the beginning of Monsoon in Mumbai, so the way up2 lonavala, was a bliss by itself! Luss green mountains on both sides of the road & beautiful & breath taking water falls! It kept raining on n off....& it was a total refreshment from the noice & crowd back in the city! The whole day was a special "close enchanment" with nature, including bath on a fresh waterfall to looking at the whole Sayadri Ranges from a clif point called "lion's point" it was really in a true sense mesmerizing!!...All in all 28th June 2008, could be comfortablly marked as I of my good days, in this year yet....
Eve of my birthday, wasnt so gr8, cause I was sleepy & slept before 12!! I know I know, you must be thinking I am the most boring person available on planet earth!!! Well morning marked the beginning of the gifts & love showering!! Mom n dad gave their presents, so did my sis!! She also took the pain of ordering my fav chocolate cake from birdies & I cut the 1st cake for my birthday.... :) Later Bro again planned out a surpise outside.... After being with them for like till 6, I went 2 meet my pal Nikhil...He asked me for a quite diner with him, which was need of the hr considering I was getting quite tired by now!!
But then again was another very wonderful surprise party, which he had taken all da pains 2 organise, calling my friends he hadnt ever meet before & office frnds from other corner of the city took all the pain 2 come to my brithday party!! I was really touched by this jesture as it was personal & made me feel really nice.... Now this party marked the 2nd birthday cake!! The party was bacially a chill @ an hang out place with hooka n stuff... This got over @ about 10, and with a sure hope that dis is all stored for my birthday this year, I came back home..
