Lost and Magically Found!

   Really frustrating! What? The feeling I get when I can't find a thing which I've misplaced and can't find when needed. Like right now I can't find my pen-drive, and I really need it. All probable places searched. All unusual-place-so-will-definately-remember places also searched. So now I'm sure it is exactly where I kept it last(which I obviously don't remember now) and is still there, but it's suddenly turned invisible!

   Incidentlly, that reminds me of the book I'm reading right now. It is A Place Called Here by the best selling author of P.S, I Love You, Cecelia Ahern. The story is about a place where all the lost things go. And not only things, all the lost things, food and drinks, feelings, forgotten laughter,cries,chuckles,smells, even people! Yes, very interesting. Seems a bit magical too. For those who believe it of course. Those who do not, scoffs at such an idea, call it childish even. But don't we all have a child in us who wants to believe in magic? To childsihly believe that some fairy or ginnie will come, wave the magical wand or snap fingers twice, and everything will be perfect? Poof! And the problems are replaced by solutions all worked out with results.

   It is such small 'childish' wishes whcih, even if you don't wan to admit, gives us hope. Hope that everything will be fine soon. And it is actually this hope that clears our mind and helps to plan things forward. So, I do believe in magic. 'Cuz I do have this child in me who is always happy to read such stories. And I also believe that everybody has this child, that only needs a li'l 'magic' to come out. Not so difficult a task.

   I'm often told that I act childishly sometimes. Yeah, I do. And I like it too! Where's the fun if I behave like a responsible, mature adult all the time? Wow, that even sounds so boring, forget doing it! Seriousness round the clock kills the fun of life. A li'l bit of fun lighten ups life and mood. Oh, and it also helps avoid wrinkles and forehead lines! And the best way to have fun is to be a kid. If you've forgotten how then just watch any toddler for 10 minutes! Smile is as much magical as it is infectious:) Specially comming from children. You can't help but respond to them, right?

   So, go find your lost smiles and laughter to get some fun in your life. Or simply find a child, and your solution will be found- magically! Keep Smilling! :)

Talking Photographs/Pictures!

   It is said that a painting can express more than words. True. I say even a picture can say a lot- if looked at properly. The person/people in the pic are interesting to study. The face, I mean. The expression, the emotion- if looked carefully as I said. And the best part is the eyes.

  I have this habit of observing eyes, of people I know, or even random people. But it's kinda rude to randomly stare at people just because to observe their eyes. So I find that pictures are best way to do so. Of course, not as effective as seeing in real, but it works most of the time for me.

  I have another habit of first checking out the thumbnails of profile pictures of the people online when I sign in on Facebook. I check the name of the of the pic which intriuges me the most. Most of the times it matches perfectly with the person's personality. And pro pics generally give the general idea of the current state of that person. This again needs careful looking or more likely observing. And that demands patience. The most difficult thing to have, especially when needed. Even I, somebody with truck load of patience, sometimes find it difficult to summon my patience when I really, really need it. But I manage most of the other times.

   And so, with patience like mine, it is easier n interesting to observe whatever I want. Just like the pro pics. And when the pic doesn't match with the person, I go the proper pic and really observe. I always get some or the other idea about why he/she must have set that particular pic only. But mind it, there are very few pictures like that that I get really interested about. Because I'm talking about the genral face normal pro pics that most people keep. Oh, don't worry I'm not some crazy person that stalks profiles and stares at photographs all day! It's just a thing I like to do sometimes, specially I'm seeking some answers to some questions/problems. It helps...sometimes:)

  Because there are so many unsaid things, ignored or hidden emotions, misunderstood thoughts, hurt, happiness, fear, anger, mischief...etc that the eyes convey even when words don't. Specially in the randomly clicked pictures,totally taken off guard. That's the moment what is going on in the mind gets refelected in the eyes. The strongest or the most vulnerable moment. Eitther way it says a lot.

   So try it sometime, when you are in a state of hanging on to your patience, because I'm not giving any examples! It is something to be experienced, not just told. As for my pro pic, my eyes are not seen in it, which means that maybe I don't wanna reveal what's in my mind currently! But one can always try to guess;)

Excitement of First Day!

   Wow, okay! So, this is it. My first day of blogging! The regular bloggers might be bored with this but, I obviously feel very excited to have opened my very own blog. It's same excitement of any 'first days', you know? First day at school (although nobody remembers theirs!), tutions, hobby classes, college, work, first day of friendship, relationship,commitment. The list is endless, ofcourse, different types with same feeling. Nervousness,happiness,questions! How will it be? The most important of all. Start anything new and that's one question which always pops up. Expectance of praise, fear of criticism. All jumbled bundle of nerves and emotions! And it is very much part of doing anything new.

   So, here I am, with my jumbled bundle of nerves and emotion, ready to empty my mind (which is always thinking so always full!) to this wonderful outlet! This is going to be my escape from my thoughts, my mind which takes me far away if i give in to it, and which is not always a happy ride to somewhere and back. Thus, Escapades Farway! Hoping it to be...well everthing I've hoped it to be, with everybodys' and anybody's support that I have and wish to have.

   Please feel free to let me know your opinions on any of my coming up blogs...comment,advise,consolation,best wishes,suggestions,criticism...everything....just tap away! Thank You!
