Another 'enlightened' moment

Quoted from various people, thoughts of wisdom and little one or two liner nuggets keep appearing and reminding me of the blessings I have. Also that when I say goodbye to bad rubbish, there's a board that goes up in the junkyard which says 'No fishing'. Relieved in ways that I haven't fished. If you have to kick a habit, a thing or a person out because you are getting pulled down, say goodbye to that very thing or person. You don't deserve to live a life of misery or guilt or depression or anxiety or stress. You have a life ahead of you to live on your terms and in the way you want. Be good to yourself and to others. But no taking crap.

The hunt is on

For an ideal location in the heart of Goa for 2 families to vacation. Now in that blessed hunt, who knew the information available out there is in plenty. Heard of OYO Rooms. This afternoon was told of AirBnB. Then again internet searches have the oft used sites of MakeMyTrip and TripAdvisor giving with plenty of suggestions along with Yatra and Cleartrip and more of those sort. Then came HostelBookers and Homestays.in. Now wishing I was single again. Hostels are to be checked out with best friends. By the way, any suggestions of places actually visited?

Happy

There are angels in disguises. And then there are invisible angels. Most of the time angels we know are around us but we just don't see them. Thank you to the angel who found my ATM card and submitted to the local authority. Although not much cash is associated with that card, the fact that you found it but didn't keep it speaks volumes about you. God bless you whoever you are and where ever you may be.

Where'd all the good people go?

Saved the cute little girl from walking into oncoming traffic this afternoon. All her mom could do is just frown her daughter without switching off her cellphone. Getting out of my shocked state and trying to handle the anger building up inside.

Dream mixer coming to life

They just don't go away. Dreams last night were a total mix: - Dad making some cutting remark as usual - Trying to escape a sudden flood caused by rain. Was thankful that I was confident this time about swimming. Bad part was I think I screwed my phone and was left with no way to communicate - One more that I fail to recollect at this time. Most probably as disconnected from the previous two and makes sense in itself.

The temple visit

Been to Subrahmanya today. First time visit to a proper dedicated temple. Couldn't help but compare the devotion displayed at the temple and at churches I've been to. Many questions in my mind. Hope to find answers to the same some day.

Show me the way

My 7 yo was handed the 2 wheeler keys and asked to pick me up from office. Her instant response: ' I don't know the way to mom's office'. Well, she also doesn't know to ride a 2 wheeler either :-)

Dreams

21 feb, 2016. 3:35 AM. Dream. Too many people in the Udupi house. Acha still there. Dont know abt Ajit and Amrith. Dont see Joel and Leah in dream either. Relatives and their relatives and dont know who else are there in the house. Remember seeing some old people and foreigners - ladies in specific, in their late 40's or 50's. Dark brown/blonde hair. Plain face. Dont know why I am in Udupi. I start asking them to leave. Pushing them out. Screaming at them. No fear. They start increasing and  spreading all over the place. Too much noise chaos and in the name of checking, too much damage caused to security, and cables and home things. Too much property destroyed. I remember too late to call the police. Even then telephone line is not working. Every time i try calling I hear Mathew uncle voice. Vanitha the maid tells me its out of order when she had tried using it in the past. There are still some stragglers in the house. It's evening and a few old men with Acha. Dont know...

The 'king' has landed

I dislike him so much. I wasn't sure how I'd be able to be in the same place or room as him. Today he's home. He reached by morning flight. Picked him up and drove back. Not a single word said or uttered. I don't know how I will get along in the next few days. Angry. Annoyed. Frustrated. Hurt. Disappointed.

The journey, sometimes
