To lose a precious one

Today I was going through IMH blog and was shocked to find about her daughter.
Tears were running in my eyes.
How could Indian doctors couldn't possibly save one young brilliant girl from dying.
Unbelievable!!!

Even though I don't know her, I just felt like I lost some friend.
I read her blog over and over.
I was staring at her cheerful face for a while.
I would've forgotten how to live if such a thing happened with me.

My deepest condolences for the family.. A mother.. A friend

Revolutionary road

This movie was aired on TV. I was excited to watch the Titanic duo Leonardo and Kate once again in this movie. This is a slow movie about a suburban family living a usual boring life with children. They suddenly realize they gotta do something to get rid of that boredom and plan to settle in Europe. Leonardo's acting is awesome, though I love his acting in all his movies.
Apart from the actors, the movie is sad. Showing a married couple with two kids, living in a beautiful house and still finding life to be boring and empty is something I couldn't digest. I heard of many friends saying that professional life becomes boring after some point of time. I guess its true now with the married life as well. Maybe everyone needs to be put effort to bring the joy and fun in their married life. Everything in life needs working on. Kate Winslet dying at the end made me sad.
I m tired of thinking in positive terms with life these days. I guess we should not expect anything in life. I mean there should not be any expectations from anyone, either positive or negative. Take everything that comes at that moment and decide the course of action. In this movie, the couple had lot of expectations from their life. They wanted a life with all the wishes fulfilled, happiness around and change.
Well I m still learning not to have any expectations from anyone and live peacefully. Its a little difficult to teach our heart these kind of matters :P

On the whole Revolutionary Road is a good movie and watch it with open mind!!!

The house of 1000 mirrors

Long ago in a small, far away village, there was place known as the

House of 1000 Mirrors. A small, happy little dog learned of this place

and decided to visit. When he arrived, he bounced happily up the

stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked through the doorway

with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his

great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little

dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great

smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and

friendly. As he left the House, he thought to himself, "This is a

wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often."

In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as

the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs

and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the

1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them

and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he

left, he thought to himself, "That is a horrible place, and I will never go

back there again."

All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do

you see in the faces of the people you meet?

PS: I got this wonderful story from a book. And I just loved it!!!
