Knowing the world!

It's 4 in the morning and I am "not-at-all" sleepy. It's actually quite normal since I'm comparatively free these days and I have time all to myself. As expected, it feels great to be at your leisure and while away time. It is just fantastic!
Btw, the purpose of this post was not to tell you all this. The purpose is to portray the real-emotional self of this so quoted "ambitious" blogger, who is trying to figure out what's with this world? Why does it seem so shallow at times? Where is the gap?
Sometimes I feel I should re-name this blog to "the poet/the writter-dikshabajaj.blogspot.com". Anyway, I guess I should leave apart all this and actually come to the point.

So, as you all see the title- "Knowing the world", what comes to your mind? Well, I don't know! How did you expect me to? There can be no telepathy here! Anyway, what comes to my(read with a drawl) mind is - a lot of stuff. I've been living in a hostel, out of my comfortable cocoon(my home sweet home) for a long time now(it's been an year) and have got a good amount of understanding(I'd like to believe) about the world around. So there are a lot of aspects I wish to share.

First one that comes to my mind is the fact that "Everyone is good at heart." Trust me and skip the paragraph or read on if you need the logic. So you are reading, fine! Let me go on then. Everyone is good - Even the person who calls you a bitch/even the person who wishes bad about you/even the one who's "termed as" terrorist. The person who bitched about you was just frustrated and wanted to let go off her anger and you were the target. "That is it!". She doesn't consider you a bitch, she doesn't hate you, she just hasn't spent time with you/discovered you are great at heart and hence you are the target of her anger. The person who wishes bad about you. She is just passing through a trough in the curve of her life and thus is being insecure. She's being jealous, let her be. DONOT revert back with a similar attitude. DONOT freak out. It doesn't mean she's bad. She is just being immature. She lacks understanding of life, you hold on to yours. The person "termed as" terrorist. You have no clue what circumstances he had. You have no clue what made him bad. This brings me to my second point: Stop judging!

"Stop judging" people when you don't know(understand) them. Stop judging people, when they act weird. Stop judging people, when they don't understand you. Stop judging people by little-little incidents. These incidents are not important, don't make them important. If are making them important then you lack the vision to make a judgement, So, stop blaming others for that.

"Everybody is a unique creation of God" and has(without a doubt) got some really unique talent. So, this brings out the next point. "Stop being jealous", rather find out yours. You fail at doing that? Alright don't freak out, it's human! But learn to conquer! Not others but your thoughts! That is more important.

"Learn to stay the way you are, stop being someone else" You're made unique, you have a choice stay unique/ be a commoner. What do you want? Now come on, nobody wants to be a commoner, I know. So learn!

"Love yourself" Why? The answer is really simple. If you can not love yourself, how can somebody else? Let the busy person in your life walk away(infact leave her) as you have so many who love you with all they have, so why not think of them rather than wasting time giving importance to the extras? Dance when you want! Live "your" own special self! Shout! Speak a lot! Those who don't like don't understand you and ones who understand(the closed ones) would never dislike. Speak wrong words, wrong English at times but don't care because you know where you were incorrect and let the other one have fun out of nothing. Be stupid! Be a kid! No matter what it takes, just be yourself.

Alright, enough of lessons for now. I told you right at the top, skip the paragraphs, just read the headings but you read the entire thing, right? I so knew! :P Never mind, with my articles it happens, It's really not your fault. :D I hope you got it, I'm about sign off, so take care, stay happy because you know what You are "THE BEST" (if you believe you are :P ) Adios! See you soon! :)

‎'The Law of the Garbage Truck.'
One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really friendly.

So I asked, ‘Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!’

This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call ‘The Law of the Garbage Truck.’

He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they’ll dump it on you. Don’t take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don’t take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.

The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day.
Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so…… ‘Love the people who treat you right. Forgive the ones who don’t.’

I'm straight.. are you?

Well, as Genelia D'souza- the new HT CITY columnist and the very well known "Pappu(who can't dance saala)'s heroine" brought forward her first article, her idea impressed me so much, that here I am stealing her topic and writing it down in my word space. So firstly, a pat on her back, great work lady!!! (after all impressing me is not that easy, so you deserve to be applauded). And now, a warm welcome to my thought space, here I am to share with you my thoughts on Miss D'souza's first article. Okay, you read the heading, what do you infer? Hold your thoughts, I'm NOT going to talk about any section 377. But I want to keep you all waiting for a little longer, before I actually get to the point. The bubbly, young actor Genelia comes up with her article in a really simple yet elegant language and I bet, any reader who came across her work must have enjoyed it and agreed to her thinking. And the art with which she portrayed her idea was just too good . A topic that is thought about almost by everyone each day.

Okay, I guess I need to come to the point, so that atleast my readers don't leave the post in between and do stay till the end to see what I have to say. So let me start by being absolutely straight..... forward! (Gotcha!) Yeah that is what she wrote about- Being straight forward!!! One topic that atleast I much ponder upon.
Straight forward- used or abused is the question. I've asked myself quite often. What do you think? I being a person who is absolutely straight forward, have been in a fix many a times, as to is it good or bad. If asked about my point of view, I would say there is nothing better than being straight forward. Be one and you'll know the difference. You don't have to have any guilt of not having told the other, the thing you always wanted to. You know you said the truth and atleast your mind is free of any kind of questions. You indeed feel, so relaxed. But then comes the question, did your straight-forwardness hurt the other person? This question often puts you in a fix. But then again, how often do we see people being downright rude to each other and justifying the insolence as straight-forwardness? On the other hand, there are such times, I find it extremely blunt, as in pretext of being rude, or a nice way of simply insulting the other person. The latter is pretty lame!!! Because there is nothing like a nice way of insulting someone, rather there is a rude yet wishful(in the right sense) way of insulting so as to improve someone.

Dictionary defines straight-forward as honest, frank, unambiguous. But how many of us know it's correct usage and I find most of the people abusing it rather than using it. I think, it's always better to be vocal about your feelings, because there lies the charm of being truthful and there's nothing more beautiful than a truthful person. But the only thing to be kept in mind is the situation. Holdback from being straight forward in an inappropriate situation. Discretion is critical. Decide if being forthright would help bring the best in someone or the result is making the recipient treasure your words for life. It may serve as a ray of hope in trying times but may even kick someone into dumps when they are already down and out. So take the proper decision and go for it because next lies the happiness and contentment of making someone realize a fact, of having told the truth!

Well that was about the beautiful article written by the young bollywood actor Miss D'souza that I had loved to the core. Stealing some lines and putting in some of my thoughts resulted the post. I hope you liked it. Did you? But now let us put it to test. Why don't you be straightforward in your feedback on this? Let's unearth some possibly more interesting facets and addtional honest "interpretations". Comments welcomed. Signing off. Hope to see you guys very soon. :)
