Black n White Please!

  What is it about the old black and white movies that seem so appealing off late?? Be it English, Hindi or Malayalam for that matter, I am tempted to simply curl up with some goodies and turn everything else around me off! Not that I don’t watch or enjoy the latest movies arriving in town, but there is some sort of unnerving simplicity or complacency that calls out when, to name a few, either Dev Anand , Nasir, Waheeda Rehman or Sharada run around trees or cry over a heart break! 

When the Going Gets Tough..

Know that song?? Heard it when I was a kid from the Boyzone album...hardly understood it in the naive ages, but had it memorized to keep up with the 'happening' crowd back then....

I think the words are apt for every walk of life... When the going gets tough, the tough get going...  Ever had to deal with situations calling you to stretch to your max that had you almost snap into two like a rubber band? Or even deal with people for that matter who are absolutely closed nutshells? Friends, parents, kids, relatives, people you care about...Yeah, it can be real tough. Especially when one starts to work at the situation for betterment of the same, it suddenly seems to clam up tight and seem to be a tough nut to crack! The door is all of a sudden bolted tight from the inside as if it has a mind of it's own and is determined not to let you in! And then...and then, what course of action would you take chérie ?

Forgiving and Forgetting


Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.

"Uh-oh I think I know what she's going to be writing about..the title says it all.." Is that what is going on in your head? Well, I'm no one to beat around the bush so yes, in a way my post title does say it all... How many of you have actually experienced both? Are you stuck in anyone of them? i.e, trying to forgive or trying to forget? Well, just read along then.. You might enjoy the post after all...

Forgiving those who wronged us is hard... is really hard sometimes... but ever realized how hard you are making it for yourself?
