A new life called Mumbai...!!

Okay now Mumbai is showing me it's different and very amusing colors  My day usually starts with a mind chart of all the things I have to do in a day apart from work. Me and my roommate, both living on our own for the very first time. Never knew how to take care of a "House". Anyways as they say this city teaches you everything, so it is doing so. Now, this incident took place at around 1 and a half month back. I was a infant to the whole public transport and women reservations of this city. Boarded a bus with as usual a very heavy bag. Struggling with the weight (both the bag's and mine ;-) ) As I went ahead, a lady saw me and told me to make a guy sitting on a ladies seat, vacate it. I was amused by the way these things work and nodded in disbelief. I told her that I was new in Mumbai and thus can't do it (in short I don't have the guts to do it!) She being a typical Mumbaikar, gave me a short speech on how I MUST do it to survive in Mumbai. Looking at the lady's suggestion and somewhat insistence I did ask the guy to vacate the seat. And the guy without any protest gave me the seat and made a face as if he has done something really horrible in life. The lady had to get off the bus so she went near the door and looked back with a smile welcomed me to Mumbai and told me to take care of myself in the new city. I felt like a winner with someone else's achievement, like I just won a million dollars on someone else's luck. I will never forget the incident and the lady... They taught me to live with full confidence. They taught me to survive.... They taught me Mumbai!!

The Real Me.... I Think!!

I have never written a blog about how I feel. I started writing only to vent out a few feelings and it built up into a story. But recently I started reading a book by Rhonda Byrne, Secret, The Power. I have always wondered how can positive thinking help us get whatever we want in life. Money, Health, Love! But since I have started reading it I feel some weird energy going through me which is constantly removing my negative thoughts and reminding me of what all I have read in the book. I am still a bit skeptical about how the book is going to turn up but one thing am sure of that it will make me understand that no matter what happens in my life I will have atleast one person who will love me the most. And that is Myself!! I know this may sound as self obsessed as hell but this the the first step for me to put down all the things I want to get rid from my behavior. For example if I feel that even I won't like a short tempered person so there it goes the first step is to reduce my temper and thus trying to be a better person in life. I still think there are a lot of things that I need to think about and change in me but atleast a small start is not that bad.... Anyone reading this?? Let me know what you think.....
