As the end
of the year beckons, I have been doing my
review of the last twelve months and re-
Thinking back at my 2013
goals as well as musing over events of the year.
I winced and laughed to myself as I looked over
my goals for the year and recalled how I
prayed, cried and did everything I could to
manifest some of my desires – and on more
than one occasion cursing karma and the Uni-verse for not giving me what I wanted.
The things always said, “You can’t
always get what you want, but if you try
sometimes, you might find you get what you
need.”
Most of us are familiar with this concept but it
really struck me the other day during my 2013
review to the point where I found myself
thanking the Uni-verse for at times not
answering my prayers and giving me what I deserved.
Desire is important – in fact it the basis and
foundation of all achievement – it serves as the
fuel and motivation to push forward to live the
lives we want.
But the problem can lie in the essence of our
desire. Sometimes our egos get in the way and
our desires do not serve our souls, our life’s
purpose or our greater good.
At times we can become so fixated on achieving
our goals that we don’t pause to see whether
we should indeed even be pursuing them. The
truth is that what we want isn’t always right
for us, and our desire doesn’t always come
from the right place.
Whether it is a relationship, job, or a possession
– sometimes we focus so much on getting what
we want that we lose sight of what underlies
that desire – and what it is about that thing,
person or goal that we really want, and,
importantly – whether it truly serves our best
interests.
It is easy to be blindsided by desires and the
subsequent pursuit of goals. We see not
achieving our dreams or obtaining the object of
our desires as failure or a curse when it can
actually be a blessing because it wasn’t the
right time or right thing.
There have been so many occasions in my life
when I have spent time and energy pursuing
goals which were not ultimately in my best
interest.
Like many I am sure, I get fixated on obtaining
my desires, forgetting that in the time since
wanting something or committing to a goal
things have changed within my psyche, and
actually what I want doesn’t serve my greater
good, and, more often than not, isn’t what I
want after all. Or on occasion the timing isn’t
right and even if I got what I wanted I
wouldn’t actually be ready for it.
At last one of the lines I read on Facebook
"Maturity is knowing that new year doesn't gonna change anything in your life."
But I guess- "Maturity is also knowing things will not change until you are willing too".
Being optimistic and finger crossed - HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL.

ENDING OF 2013
Friday, December 20, 2013
FEAR OF MISSING OUT
When we stare at uncertainty, typically fear
comes up. We just don’t know what’s going to
happen. Good stuff maybe? Or bad stuff? A lot of
folks tend to think that only bad stuff is going to
happen in the unknown, (especially me) they stay in their
comfort zone.
One of the main ailments everybody is suffering
from is a disease known as F.O.M.O…( I have read it from a link.)
It’s
rampant, pervasive and a dream killer. F.O.M.O., if
it dominates your system, WILL prevent you from
living your best life at your highest potential.
SO – what is this disease, this dream killer called
F.O.M.O.?
You may have guessed it, or maybe not. But here it
is.
"Fear of
Missing
O ut"
F.O.M.O. says that wherever we are isn’t the right
place and that something, somewhere outside of
ourselves is bigger, better and shinier. Some place,
other than where you are right now, is where you
are “supposed” to be.
I shouldn’t be HERE, I SHOULD be THERE.
F.O.M.O. is another way of SHOULDING all over
ourselves.
Einstein once said that we have a choice, “Either
EVERYTHING is a miracle or NOTHING is a
miracle,”
I deduce that from the very
small point of view of being human, we don’t have
the intelligence
available to us to truly interpret events as “bad”
or “good.” We can either see EVERYTHING as a
miracle or NOTHING as a miracle.
Wherever you ARE is PERFECT. You have been
GUIDED there. And wherever you think you need
to be is an illusion. The present moment, where you
are, what you are doing is PERFECT and
MIRACULOUS.
Miracles, like Grace, can be wonderful – or they
can be a kick you in the teeth (in the moment).
But in the long run, from the MACRO point of view,
we will see why things had to be the way that they
are and were.
If you choose to see EVERYTHING as a miracle,
then where you are right now is perfect. There is
nowhere to run to; there is nothing else to do
except be in this moment and allow what is to be.
From that place of radical acceptance, MAJOR
change can happen. The first step in any
transformational experience is acceptance and
surrender to the present moment the way it is.
From that place we have the awareness, humility
and POWER to change what is.
You might have F.O.M.O. – but if this moment is a
miracle, there is nothing to chase or run away to,
if this is IT… then what would life be trying to
show you? What are you learning? Where is the
miracle in this moment? If you have been guided
to where you are RIGHT NOW, where is the
miracle?
Don't live in F.O.M.O..!!

Authentic you or a hidden showmen
It’s pretty much impossible for people to know who
you are if you don’t express yourself. And not just
your small self, I’m talking about your Authentic
Self.
That part of you that knows your truth, that
wants life to be fulfilling, that part of you that
might just be dying to express itself.
But if you do not express that part of yourself,
then others won’t be able to see it. And you won’t
be able to see how powerful that part of you truly
is.
Many of us keep our Authentic Selves hidden (including myself)
because we are afraid that we are going to stir
the pot too much. Or that we are going to be made
wrong. Or that we are going to be judged, ridiculed
or made fun of.
Perhaps we bought into a story that one of our
parents, friends, teachers or family members told
us. Something like, “You’ll never be good at this or
that.” And so we shut down, and in that moment
we think that they are putting us in our place, but
really we are putting ourselves there by agreeing
with them.
When we show our Authentic Selves, it WILL shake
things up. Some people will applaud us. Others will
shun us. The truth about life is that we either grow
together or we grow apart.
And since we are
constantly growing spiritually if we are on the
Path, that means that some people are in our lives
for a season, or a reason or a lifetime. Celebrate
those that you can journey with; they will be there
for your whole life. And don’t be afraid to let go
of those folks who aren’t growing with you,
sometimes it’s best to Love certain people from
afar. And that’s okay too.
The thing that we want to keep our minds set on is
expressing our Authentic and Loving Selves.
This takes work. This WILL rock the boat, and this is
probably the most important decision we could ever
make in our lives. Because everything else revolves
around how we see ourselves and then, as a result,
how others see us.
If you aren’t seeing your ideal life manifesting
around you, ask yourself, “What do I REALLY
believe about me and what’s possible in my life?”
“Am I expressing my Truth?” “Am I showing others
who I REALLY am, or am I living a lie to get
approval or Love?”
Stay true .stay blessed

What to do
This sentance or i say 3 little word compared to most romantic words "I Love you" has become an metaphoric punch line for common men or youth .
Everybody seems the victim of "what to do".
People just say what to do when they find the situation not in control of them.
The most obvious situations are complicated and it uses this "what
to do".
People going for job interviews and not getting them,students after the results (especially gtu) just to get my inner feelings out:( , people choosing the wrong leader etc, all says the same.
But sometime you really don't find "what to do".
;That time it isn't used as excuse.you want to do something very desperatly but still the circumstances are not with you as they are never i guess ..and there it comes "what to do".people having so many things to do ,still they go for it ;and people after finishing everything says the same "what to do".
It is used in d most compulsion situations.
In short,This generation is led by this 3 simple words for their past,present,future. !!
"Situation makes the world go round .so before getting trapped in "what to do",make the most of it".
-Milan modi
After reading this whole and now thinking what to do.
I just want to say "thanks for reading".

A JOURNEY TO REMEMBER
I just took my bag & sat on my regular window seat.
I took my earphone and plug it on as most of us do during journey.
Had put some random song to pass the time & then i starting seeing out of the window.
It just take a second to change everything...is it so??
I started thinking.. what i am doing??
Its started with "deadly" past ,"worried" future upto my "nowhere" present.!!
It seemed like the speed of train was competing my speed of thoughts !
The more intensly i thought ,more the speed of train.i pause thinking ,the train reaches to some random station and stops.
Sometimes you know ..you can't do anything with just thinking,but still u do that, because you don't have any option.!!
The engines blow the horn & it seems the battle starts again.
This time more intense.
i thought to myself ,it gonna blow my head.
"Milan stop thinking ,whatever it may be"! i told to myself.

AWKWARD MEETING
I am not gonna say you about the meetings you have with company officials or the boring parents teacher meetings.
Ya they are awkward for everybody ,but hey.. life has more awkward meetings than that ..!!!
In those meetings ,no matter how hard you try , it take guts to speak.
Opening the curtains , i am quoting about the meetings ,in which you meet a person.. you loved once ..or you had them always when you needed them...
but alas you don't have them now.no contact at all..
You suddenly meet them somewere like airports or in a threatre..you never expected .
You look into their eyes & got everything to ask .the unanswered questions,But it become so awkward for you to speak a simple "HI" to them.
Your whole world stops there for a second seeing them.Even you ask yourself is it real ? or you are dreaming..but yeah, its real ,the world is a small place ,you will find them in your way & have these "AWKWARD MEETING"..!!
HOW much hard you try to speak ,you will always end up asking " hi, how are you? ".
and if more you will end up taking their number ..the number you know, you will never dial.
Everybody have their meeting, its kind of funny situation, you just get blank, you see your crush ,your love or bestie that you were used to talk daily and now even can't greet them.
You will always say you are okay.. but hey the hard fact is you still want them back, but now you have managed to live without them.
Life gives time to prepare for ordinary meetings, but the awkward meetings will be always unexpected..you will never know when you will have one, or i say you already had ..!!
I had Few, and i expect to get one soon..
No one knows,

ONE LIFE -- Different way of living
There are different kind of people you would see, if you have enough luck i guess...!~!!
- I have seen people who don't care what happen in there life, whether sad or happy, they just go on warrying about nothing.
- Another type of people who just are afraid of their life , get influenced by anything if they are convinced, not knowing in which they are happy on..... wish i could be them
- I have seen peoples who just try to improve themselve continuosly whether they are successful or not.they have the solution of every problem whether of themselve or the other...!!!
....AHH.!!! who just live for the sake of living , either i don't know, but i must say they have lost something or you can say the source of living.But get up, you might find something, look to other people i have described ....you might find something...!!!
AHH, i have completed it i think...
"everthing that starts has an end ."
kudos to me (haha).
Just think in which living you belong too.
P.S-- You are free to say where i belong .I WOULD BE THANKFULL......
just a final thing..read if u understand..
Jindgi na ghana roop joya chhe,
K aane shu dukh chhe?
Aato sada hase chhe?
Aa smit ma ketlu dukh vase chhe?
Tame ae vaat thi dukhi chho?
Etla to sukhi chho!
Ke koine tamara vishe sujyu nathi..
Aam roj roj shana maro chho??
Je kyarey roi nathi..
Jindgi ni darek palo ne dil thi mano..

Love & Caste
..Thanks to the blog!!
Love, its just an awesome feeling you get when you are with your partner.
.but wait.. Are you of same caste,religion,as she is???
No,i am sorry then you have the least chances of making to it then, kudos to this mindset of people:'(
Parents just think that there son/daughter marry with someone of there religion and they will be happy..But hey who said that .
If u love someone of another caste, does it make difference??
But alas, its not there fault too ...even the animals of same tribe would be afraid if someone else try to come close ( no offence)
I don't disagree with them but if that person can do anything for it then why not..
Coming to the point , next time when you fall in love , go with a caste tag there ,because your love is not enough. I am not saying its impossible,its upto you and your partner .you have the hope and believe to be with each other ..you can do it.but if one of it tries to give up make he/she believe not too.
In india, chetan bhagat has rightly wrote its not about loving each other.its about loving there family ..ahh i know you all have read it on his novel.
why love is not enough to hold on.? Its hard but not impossible ..think on it.
Have patience and faith i know this will not make any diffrence to those who already disagreed reading it on first. but hey i said give it a try.
P.S-No string attached

CONFUSING ONE
Life. . .
Thing that actually matters , when it
doesn’t matter you.
It’s always surprising , when you say
it bothers you.
People all around say it’s
interesting , when it bores you.
Sochta hoon kambakht mujse kyu
naraaz he!!
That’s why I’m confused with
life . . .
Never ever been predictable but
wisely plays with you.
Give your complete dedication ,
because it always tests you.
When you are enjoying , It scares
you.
And if you are scared , It enjoys
you.
Kabhi to kamini jeete jee maar
dalti he!!
Damn!! I’m confused with life . . .
Sometimes the thing you desire , It
never gives you.
People you adore , they usually hate
you.
If it’s flying you high , takes
something important to you.
It has some rules which it wants to
be followed by you.
Zaalim khud hamare maze leti
he..
Why I'm confused with life . . .!!
You think you can drive it , but
actually it drives you.
Sometimes it’s messed & sometimes
favouring you.
You can’t simply fade up because
it’s following you.
Two faced bitch , it is always
ditching you.
Saali kehti kuch aur he karti kuch
aur he!!
Extremely confused with life . . .
Is it just me or this crazy LIFE. .
Confusing you??

L.O.S.E
Everyone of us suffers from the condition
of Lack of Self Esteem,
Most pretend or we judge each other until
we are fit to scream
When we lie to each other and say 'I am
fine',
We know that it ain't true, it's a lying
crime.
Yet we have all been told endlessly that the
problem is us,
Be it from a school teacher, a parent, of us
they cuss
They tell us we are not what they want us
to be,
A doctor, a lawyer, a politician or some
other wannabe.
We are programmed from birth to be what
we are not,
They want us packaged and labelled and
boxed.
They want mini-me replicas of their
mechanical selves,
They want us working for them, and filling
their shelves.
We have been conditioned to play someone
else's game,
But the game we are playing is hopeless,
sad and lame.
It is not what we came to Earth to
experience at all,
We came down here to see our potential,
and to have a ball.
We are told from birth that we need
certificates to succeed,
To go to school and learn to add, type,
punctuate and read.
Yet they never tell us how to use the
imagination we hold,
Do you wonder why this is, why we are
servile,not bold?
So conditioning us with their manipulative
game,
Leaves us like puppets playing the old
stinking game.
Until we wake up and see the power of our
Imagination,
remembering we are pure energy, not
meant for incarceration.
Telling us that we should be like this and
that,
Leaves us feeling sad, unhappy and flat.
When we are not recognised for the
miracles we we dare to dream,
We are left deflated, rejected and with no
self esteem.
We all suffer from the condition of lack of
self esteem for sure.
Look around at all your friends and family;
most are insecure.
When we do not acknowledge the golden
insights of our soul,
we hand over our power to those that will
use us and control.
Some eat too much, some drink, some
gamble and some fight,
Whatever you are doing, you know it, it's a
pandemic blight.
Each one of us will find some way to cope
with this affray,
Some tactic to block out the pain of life,
and send it away.
Can we all please agree that we all suffer
from L.O.S.E?
Let's replace our fears with imagination,
not booze.
