Thanks to the Jaipur workshop, I manage to come to Delhi Office for a day. Tomorrow I am leaving with other Delhi staff to Choki Dhani, Jaipur.

Its so good to meet old office collogues. I dont have much time to check other blogs of my frens but I thougth I can spare 5 mins to write something. I think it has become my daily routine to write on my electronic diary.

Delhi is quite cold then Mumbai. Delhi roads are looking much more wider and less pollution. I think my stay in Mumbai for 2 months make me used to travel on roads with lots of jerks, eating dust and see people all around me. If I compare between people then I would say Mumbai people are very simple and kind. Unlike Delhi teen girls who always dress up like a model even in colleges, in Mumbai I found even teenager girls are very simple in their approach and way of dressing. After my two/ three days of joining in Mumbai office, my collogues told me you dress up like Delhilite, always matching ear rings with clothes and daily lip stick. I was sarcastically smiling, if they could have seen my Delh office collougues what would they have thought.

I have to start my work, will catch al my blog frens later.

Cheers

“Men are also great!” by Neeraj as in reply to my post “Women are just great”

Tomorrow I am going to Delhi (my parent’s home), will be there till Feb 27 (Monday) and then on 28th (Tuesday) I am leaving to Jaipur and stay at Chowki Dhani Resort. We have official retreat cum review there. I will be back on March 06.I will take pictures there and post at my site. I have heard that its a beautiful place and all the rooms are made in the shape of huts. Everything they have made ethinic. I am desperate to go there.

As I have mentioned in my comment to JV, I thought I should share the dreams which I saw and got fulfilled.

When I have completed Graduation, I saw the dream that like big people (not in age but in profession) I also get a chance to stay in 5 star hotel by company. Yes, its funny to see such small dream. At the age of 21, I have got a chance to stay in 5 star, Hotel Grand Hyatt in Delhi (India) and that is also for six days. When I entered my room, I was jumping with joy. As if I was on the clouds and no one can put me down. In bathroom tub, I spent almost an hour. LOL. Its nothing for few people, but for me it was a dream come true. The next time when I stayed in hotel, it was like staying away from home. The thrill has gone.

After the thrill of staying in hotel, I saw the dream that I was in a flight. Its funny too. Luckly, we had some workshop in Lucknow (India), then I got a chance to travel in Jet Airways. My thrill to travel by plane soon faded away when I entered into the flight. One doesn’t feel any different inside the flight, but the feeling of going by flight sponsored by company was still there. I remember, when I got the tickets, I kept it so safe.

So I stayed in 5 star hotel, got the opportunity to travel by plane, what next. My trip to DC Washigton (America) last year for 9 days, in the age of 24. It was something like I could not have imagine that can happen in my life. I always wanted to visit some another country, I didn’t know it would be the capital of America. When I got the invitation letter on my table from DC, for a moment I was so stunned that I couldnt believe, does it really mean that I have got a opportunity to go there. My parents almost told everyone that I am going to DC, my mom has not left a single person she knew. I felt on the top of the world when I reached DC. Needless to say, I visited most of the malls, museums, White House, Washington Monument.

These were the dreams which I saw and got fulfilled. I know they are very small dreams, but they really matter a lot. I was the happiest person when I entered my hotel room, my first flight to Lucknow and when I reached DC. When I remember those, still I can feel the zeal of experiencing the dream.

I would like to tell to those who doesn’t know that in Delhi (India) model Jessica Lall was shot dead at an upmarket place on April 29, 1999. She was shot in front of many people. Almost after seven years, nine accused were let off by the court on the ground that key witnesses had not identified the accused. The main accused is a son of Haryana Minister.

It’s so unfortunate, if no witness turn up, does that mean the girl has not been murdered? Can we just let the accused go scott free? If court thinks that they have not commited the murder, then who did? That is also under their responsiblty to check who has killed her. Its such a pity that she has been shot dead in front of so many people but no one became a eye witness. If all eye witnesses could have taken a step, no high level person could have dare to hurt anyone. Since, all doesn’t think the same way, the one who takes the step gets all the trouble. Just because of this no one turn up. Why they don’t think that if they work in team, no one can even touch them ?
Her father got a stroke in November 2002. Her elder sister has said according to the newspaper “Dad doesn’t know what has been happening. It will not make any difference to him if we tell him about the case. He will forget in a few seconds. He has only sketchy memories of the past. He knows that he had a daughter but doesnt remember more then that. He has gone through a lot….I dont want to disturb him further. For almost 3 yrs, he kept going to the court but was stunned when accused was granted bail. He stopped going to the court after that. He said there was nothing he could expect now”

I really feel pity, we know everything still we cannot do anything. Had the accused been caught, they still may have got some relief. I couldn’t control myself to write about her.

We all have Dreams; yet some of our dreams are never realized.

I have a dream of my own home, all furnished, modular kitchen, matching tiles, luxurious bathroom with mirrors all around, nice dinning, beautiful drawing room, sexy bedroom and one Children’s roon (can be useful in future).

I am really desperate to make this dream come true. Its not very easy in a city like Mumbai (India), but one should never loose hopes. I have just started my life, its only three months since I got married. I have enough time to start working on this.

P.S: Living your dream is not about attaining the result. It is about who you become along the way. Like a caterpillar that evolves into a beautiful butterfly.
