That little Extra!!!

Life's going pretty well, and then one day, you think of screwing it! You try to get that little extra. A little more care and attention in a relationship, a little more money for a job, a little more fame... And this is where all problems begin. Why do we need that little extra! Why is there always a 'possibility for improvement'. Life's never perfect, yes. And yes, we should try to make it perfect, but we should know our boundaries. We should know where there is a possibility for that improvement. Some things, especially relationships, are always best the way they are. A little more you expect and chances are that you are at the verge of losing it.
What I have learned is that we should accept life the way it is. People come and go. I had read somewhere that people remain in your life as long as you really need them. They leave when their work is over. Remember, Nanny MacFee only comes when children need her and not when they want her. There a great difference between want and need. We spend our whole life wanting things that won't do any real good to us. They may give us pleasure for sometime, but eventually what matters is the relations we have or ever had in the past. Every single person on this earth have a reason to be. Some are their to do great work, lead others, discover something great, to produce a great movie, to write a bestseller, to compose something mesmerizing, but some others (the majority) is their to create the real difference in a few people's life they come across. A person who makes you smile everyday, a person who cares for you without any intentions, someone who will be there when you need help, someone who will accompany you whenever you want, who will advise you on crucial matters of your life, who will walk an extra mile with you, who will listen to you when you are down, who will share food with you, reserve a seat in the class room, watch a movie with you. These people have a reason to be in your life. They are making it worth living. These are the people you should care about. They are friends, family and lovers. They are not making great difference to 'the world', but yes, they are making a great deal of difference to 'your world'.
One advice, never ever expect anything extra from these 'special people'. They are this way because you need them this way. It will be a great mistake if you try to change a person according to your need. They are perfect the way they are. I learned it the hard way by losing some very good friends. I don't want this for the people who are reading this blog. So, cherish the people in your life the way they are.

I ASKED GOD...

I asked for strength and God gave me difficulties to make me strong
I asked for wisdom and God gave me problems to solve
I asked for courage and God gave me dangers to overcome
I asked for favors and God gave me opportunities
I received nothing I wanted I received everything I needed
My Prayer Has Been Answered.

Black

Black, is not only a color of darkness, failure.... it is a color of success, achievement.....it it the color of academic excellence (remember your Graduation!!??)
When a person is alone, he has a lot more time for himself. He can do what his heart wants. Black creates a sense of isolation. I, myself sometimes felt lost. But there are always people who would come for your rescue. Your family, your 'real' friends- they will always be there for you.. I am quoting real because friends are the best part of life but as they say "Quality and Scarcity go side by side". Real friend are the hardest thing to find in life. I am blessed to have 2 or 3 of those friends. Very different in nature but something ties them with me. One of them, Abhi is so difficult to understand that most of the time, I am confused. But still, I love him more than myself.. He is one of the most practical person, I have ever met in my life. He has reasons for everything. Ant the most interesting thing is that I am just opposite of him. My emotions and his funny taunts on them completes my life.
Another interesting character is Giri. We share almost every emotion. We think alike, do alike but still he has something that I don't have- He can listen to me and my rubbish like, forever.. He is my best adviser also..

One more person who is always there to share my fruits (LOL) and my life is Bharat. His funny and sarcastic comments are one of the very few things that can lit my face so easily... Most of the memories we share are of us eating fruits and other things together!! :P
So friends, this post is for you... I am really thankful to you people for coming in my life and moreover, changing it in such a beautiful manner. You have taught me so much, that I can't repay.
And for all the other readers, I am blessed son of God, and I hope you people also have such extraordinary fellows in your life.. And if you don't, then, here's a advice, search for them.....
Enjoy the black part of your life, may be it is the brightest part.... be positive, think positive...
