Lessons I learnt - From friends & foes

1. You are Welcome
Whenever I am on the chat on Gtalk and I say thanx (in its various forms like thnx, Thanks, etc.) a friend of mine would always make it a point to respond back immediately with a "welcome" and a smiley :). This I felt is such a nice gesture. You feel Good after this....that the person whom you are thanking actually values it !!!

2. Smile
This I read somewhere is the most contagious disease. You smile and people smile back. Feels good at the morning.

3. Hi Sudeep
Always address people by their names. They will feel special. This friend of mine, I am not taking names lest i might be infringing on IPRs, would always address me as "Hi Sudeep"....and I know wat it feels like....Try it out someime

4. Thanks
This is the most abused word...though the most kind also. And whether its accepting a compliment or is getting some work done, this comes handy.... I use it profoundly, but sensibly....

5. Lukkhe

This is something which we used during our Engg days....My bunch of friends there...we wud often address each other...I dunno wat it means exactly, but its litereal meaning is not what everybody would like..but to us it was and still is (How can I forget calls from two of my close friends...one of which cursed me for sending "that" news thru an SMS...thought its a separate story that even she did not give me "the" news......) ya...it is a sweet way to address.....How I miss those dayz !!

Thank You friends... Thank You all......(I had thought of writing names....but hten i might be doing injustice to those whose names I forget to write...so I am better-off this way !!!

Thoda Sa Rumani Ho Jayein

I just love the following lines....i guess they have been written by Gulzaar..they are form one of my most favourite movies - Thoda sa rumani ho jayein..

दो दिनोँ के बीच एक छोटी सी रात है
रात के इधर एक दिन, रात के उधर एक दिन
दिन दो हैँ, बस रात एक है.कर लो जो चाहो, बन लो जो चाहो
आज है तुम्हारा, और कल भी तुम्हारा है !!

दो घाटोँ के बीच, एक पतली सी धारा है
घाट नहीँ चलते, धारा चलती है
पतली सी धारा, जाकर समन्दर से मिलती है
समन्दर से मिलती है, और मिलकर खो जाती है
घाट, घाट ही रहते हैँ, वो समन्दर हो जाती है !!

समन्दर को बान्धे, ऐसा कोई घाट नहीँ
कदमोँ को थामे, ऐसी कोई बात नहीँ
कर लो जो चाहो, बन लो जो चाहो
तुम कर नहीँ सकते ऐसा कहीँ कुछ भी नहीँ
इसलिए, यह न कहना कभी क्या करेँ, कैसे करेँ !!!
