Bas ek motivation chahiye...blogging k liye...

How do I start...well... I'm back to blogging after a loong loong time... Like any other craze, blogging was one of my craze(s). But again like any other craze..it all started with a BANG and in a few days ended up with no trace...

Life just moved on...hectic schedule, office meetings, home,cooking and time up!! There were so many things I wanted to write about, so many thoughts flowing..positive..negative.. But the day ended with the same old excuse, "I don't get time". The worst part, if you share this thought with some one, the person on the other end suddenly becomes an enlightened soul and comes with an advice "you know what..you need to manage your time".. So that was the end.

It was not until recently that I remembered my blog..all thanks to my li'l sister-in-law. Well now this young lady is an interesting character ( I'll touch upon her story in one of my blogs). She not only is a fun loving person, but a 'hidden' intellect as well. She has started blogging recently and like any blogger loves 'likes','views' and 'subscription'..so I was one of the intended audience... It doesn't stop here..she encouraged me to get back to blogging and promised a subscription in return. Quite a promising deal I say...

So after a discussion of almost a week or so..here I'm with blogger app installed on my mobile..rearing to get back to this virtually real world of words...

Yes..it's a deal...

Strategic marketing - Lessons from a Bhelpuri wala

Most of the time while getting back home I join a friend of mine who drops me at a metro station. In my second or third visit itself I noticed a bhelpuri wala. This man is not like other local market tapri wala. He was clean and seemed well organized.  He had 4 plastic covers, each containing onion , tomato, coriander and green chillies (all uncut). Highlight were the fresh lemons. He had papers folded like cones. A box with masala and a cover with loads of mixture. Like any office goer returning home, I too was slightly hungry for some munching. What better than bhel. I liked the way he customized my bhel by checking for the quantity of chilly and lemon. I liked it so much that I got one more for my sis. Thus began the love for bhel. One day it so happened that my husband was about to pick me up and I was waiting just next to the same bhel guy. I was an observer that day. In a span of 20 mins this guy served around 8 customers.  Interesting! I began talking to him(shhh......

Nick names - why are they important?

I just completed reading The Namesake by Jhuma Lahiri. A very nicely written book. Relations are portrayed beautifully. But what caught my attention was the concept behind nick names. In North India its common to have Nick names like monu,sonu, guddi, etc. In South India, you may have multiple names, but all the names will be meaningful ones. For e.g., Sita is the name given by elders, in school she will be Gayatri. But in Bengalis, it is a custom to have a bhalo naam and a daak naam. Bhalo naam is the formal name by which one would be known in school or college or office. Daak naam is the pet name ones family keeps. Selecting this pet name in itself is a task. And these names are weird, Bulty, Rumi, Budi and so on. But there lies a deeper meaning to this tradition. These names are meant to make one realize that life is not always serious, life is not just about struggle, life is not just about running for survival. Life at times is just for one self. Life is sweet cute and meanin...

I AM- Proud to be a woman

I have been in existence, Forever and ever. I have seen it all, I'm unstoppable like a river. I know what happiness is, And I know what is misery. I'm not the one to fall, I can unravel life's mystery. I'm the petite girl, You would want to hold. Watch it! Hurt me, You will see my side untold. I can make you smile, And I can cry with you. I'm like the sunshine, And I'm like the dew. I'm the Kali, Oh so fierce. I'm also the calm Sita, Whom you revere. I'm the one about whom, A lot is said and written. Praise me or Criticize me, I am Proud to be a WOMAN!!! Regards, Srilekh
