Valentine's Day!!

-
What does 14th Feb mean to you?..Is it any other day? or is it special?.....For me..it always has been special....not because I had a valentine I could share it with....but for quite the opposite reason that i didnt have a valentine...hehehe!!....But every year...from my engg....I've been receiving a mail from an anonymous person wishing me today... a secret admirer?..maybe..more!!...:)...

I always wondered why we needed only 'one' day in an year to express our love for someone.....someone once told me that if you profess your love on a regular basis..the value of the feeling will be lost..and so they wait for a special occasion or a specific time to express their love.....Its strange isnt it??

When you love someone, we do not need to wait for a day or an occasion...every day...every moment will be special when your loved one is with you...you do not need to give a material gift to show how much you love them...just a small gesture that you think about your loved one ...even in your busy work schedule...would make him/her happier than any material gift....a phone call..or a sweet note...or their fav song as your hello/caller tune....are just few of those very small things that you can do to make your 'valentine' feel loved!!.....the more you share the more you'll cherish...and the more it will grow!!...you do not have to wait for a special day or time.....its only the thought/gesture that matters.....coz when you love someone...you'll love them every day...every min.....and the V-Day is everyday....and not just on 14th Feb!!!

Do share your interesting stories!!

Loving material things vs being Materialistic!!

-
Recently I had this argument with one of my colleague, who said that I tended to sound materialistic.!!..I was shocked...coz..anyone who knew me well enough would definitely deny that I was materialistic.....then I asked my colleague of what my colleague's definition of a 'materialistic' person was. My colleague then said that, I once mentioned that I dream to own a porsche one day...visit venice......etc.....I was excited when I bought a new phone...when I got my new laptop....n I get super excited about small things such as a good dish...a good movie etc etc.......all these, as per my colleague, made me materialistic...!!!..... Thank god!!..I thought!!....coz, then I knew that I just loved material things and was not 'materialistic' as the term is used widely.... Being materialistic in my opinion, is when one gives more value to the material/immaterial things than human relationships... show me one person who doesnt love material or immaterial 'things'.......

What's in a name??

-
Whenever I meet anyone new, atleast 7 out of 10 would ask me, 'What does Praphulla mean actually?!!"......Its a different name, not found very often in South India ( I have no statistical information to prove this!.)....... Basically, my mom, when she was young, used to write lots of poems, and sing really well..( she does even now actually!!!)..... So, she named my elder sister as Pallavi ( related to Music) - beginning of the song....and my name as Praphulla (related to literature) - Blooming... However... I researched about my name on the Internet...and here is what I have found: Praphulla — enlivened, fully blossoming, pleasant, cheerful Praphullita — being jubilant True to my personality...Isnt it??...:) PS: This thought just struck me!!...You know...my sister sings really well...now when I think about it....I wonder....my mom had 2 passions.....one was music...another literature.... mom used to sing well, and my sis name is related to music, is that why my sister sings s...

It's all about trust honey!!!

-
I read this in a book today....."if there is no trust there is no relationship" I agree, but sometimes it makes me think..how is trust built...you start by saying I trust and then actually internalize it, or take time for building the trust that can never waver....someone once said..either we trust or we dont..is that possible?...to take such an extreme position? ....I thought I trusted someone 99% and someone at 20% level... I may not distrust too..but can there be anything in between?....strange....but then, is trust built? or does it just happen?....like few say love happens....for me love is not an instant feeling...it grows..so should trust be like that?...grow overtime?.....donno....too many conflicting thoughts, too less a time to analyze....so why think n waste time:).....
