My Life in Cliche'd Quotes

"We always thought we'd look back on our tears and laugh, but we never thought we'd look back on our laughter and cry."

Living in the past is something I simply have never advocated or supported. Learn from the past and move on...Life is what lies ahead and not in the memories of the past!

Then why have I been drifting to memories of my past and seeking comfort in them. And what's more...I've loved and I still love every minute of it!

"A friend is someone who is there for you when she'd rather be anywhere else."

Thanks Suchi for the evenings of incessant chatter, silly banter...real smiles and heart to hearts...

"Advice is like snow; the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper it sinks into the mind."

Something to ponder on....lines I wish everyone reads and understands. LOL with me, advice has been given like a blizzard....whooooosshhhhh....and m still dusting off the last of the icicles!!

"You can understand and relate to most people better if you look at them -- no matter how old or impressive they may be -- as if they are children. For most of us never really grow up or mature all that much -- we simply grow taller. O, to be sure, we laugh less and play less and wear uncomfortable disguises like adults, but beneath the costume is the child we always are, whose needs are simple, whose daily life is still best described by fairy tales."

Vedant baby...u keep the child in me alive :)

*sigh*

And off I am to take on another day....Life Here I Come!!!

"The remarkable thing we have is a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude."


The song playing is "Main Jahan Rahoon"...

My Wish List!!!

I just put this up in my personal blog "Ishi's daily dose:-)"! I was excited making this wishlist so had to share it here too:P! It was like going window shopping :D Ofcourse this is keeping in mind the fact that I do have my birthday coming up!!!



The song playing is "Dreams" by Cranberries...one of my all time fav bands:-)

Dreams - Cranberri...
"Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems

I know I felt like this before
But now I’m feeling it even more
Because it came from you

Then I open up and see
The person fumbling here is me
A different way to be

I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
They’ll come true, impossible not to do
Impossible not to do

Now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don’t hurt me
For what I couldn’t find

Talk to me amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You’re everything to me

Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
’cause you’re a dream to me
Dream to me"

Don't expect me to be your friend

I remember hearing this song when I was growing up ...

Yet another facet of love.

Not all love stories have happy endings” – is a phrase I didn’t give much thought to as a child.

But that phrase is a living reality.

In fact I often wonder ... “Most love stories end up unhappy…just few stand the test of time, faith, commitment…

The song above is close to my heart because I know how difficult it is to sustain a relationship with someone we have loved in the past but who has since moved on. Not many can do it successfully. Sometimes the hurt and pain is too much. Sometimes the reasons don’t make any sense.

Life isn’t fair. Life isn’t ever ... But life still is what we make of it.

And Love happens ... not just once. It happens many times in one lifetime.

Don’t hang on.

Let go ...

Help my friend - Puja



Hello Everybody,

I need your help.

My niece, Prachi (11 mths) is suffering from Brain Disease - Leigh's Disease. It’s spread all over in her brain. Leigh's disease usually begins between the age of 3 months to 2 years and progress rapidly. My niece is not able to walk, sit, eat any solid food, she is always on liquid. Her body is very stiff. From the last three months she is undergoing physiotherapy exercises. She is very weak and always needs support. She has the tendency to put on weight very fast.

We have showed her to a Neuro Surgeon in Bangalore. Consulted with so many other doctors and this they have to say "She will not live for more than 6 mths or Max 1 yr”. We are doing everything here, but still there is no progress. Please help me!! There is no cure for this disease. We have showed her to many doctors, but everybody gives the same answer. But we have still not lost hope. Please can you give me the name and contact number of a good Neuro Surgeon, physiotherapist, whom you think can help us. She is in pain; my sis-in-law is heartbroken. My family is suffering and is in lot of pain and I have to be strong and do something.

“Relatives never help”

I have sent across mails to most of the Organization who are looking after such kind of diseases, but no body has answered, accept one who gives me the same answer “There is No cure”. I know I am asking for too much, but if you can take a couple of minutes from your schedule and can find out any info on this (the name and contact number). It will be really grateful.

Request: For all the women’s who are planning to have a baby, or who are already pregnant. Please get your Genetic test done in the 2nd month of the pregnancy. Doctors say that in US and others countries out 77,000 one child gets this disease. But in India out of 100 pregnant women, 10 children are affected. And there is no Cure. I am being a little rude here, but NO body will want there children to be born with a disease which is not curable, which leads to death or abnormal disorders.

Please help me!! If there is any info can you please drop an email at puja.jain12@gmail.com

Thank you so much for all ur help
Puja

Thank you Ishita :)
