Mr. D.K.Bose and the briefcase!

Life of Mr. Bose was quite simple, he was working 9 to 6 to take care of all the three generations of his family, i.e. his parents, his wife and their children. He would go to office in the morning with his black briefcase decorated with nice stickers flashing his name "Mr D K Bose" (he could not put his full name because there were so many E's in it). His work was sufficiently challenging to keep him engaged for 8 hours. He would empty his tiffin box in lunch time and have a serious discussion on Bollywood, Politics, Cricket, etc. And mind it, he was quite witty in those discussions too, he would crack a nice joke on exponentially decreasing size of dresses in Bollywood or how naive the young generation is. He remembers the day when he sang a nice old song of Mukesh and everybody appreciated it and congratulated him on completing 10 years on the job.

And how time's changed, those were the days when people liked him, talked to him with respect, consulted him for suggestions. And now, not a single person look at him without a malicious glee in his eyes. People around him just cannot control their mirth, some even pull a taunt on his half-moon. He always feel the murmur of people around him whispering that song, the song that changed his life or shall we say ruined it. He does not dare to participate in any cultural events, he didn't even attend the parent's day function in his son's school. Each day of his life starts with a curse for the song. Once, he thought of suing the producers of the movie but gave up when he heard his lawyer chuckle on his name.

Anyways life goes on and now he has adapted the new nickname that his colleagues has given him - "Forest" (he finds it milder that "Run D.K.Bose Run"). Sometimes he makes fun of himself and try to jell in the young mass! He still feeds his three generations, the only thing that has changed in his life is the briefcase, now it does not carry his old badge of glistening letters : "Mr D K Bose".

Its been a year since I wrote my last post on this blog(I have been writing on Rubydubee fairly regularly). Recently I have been introduced to IndiBlogger, Its a very active and huge forum and community of bloggers. Since then I have been reading lots of blog posts by various bloggers on various topics. And somehow I remembered this blog that I have started with so much enthusiasm in my college days(and written some posts that i read and laugh now!).

Poetry from the sky!

ढगाळलेले आकाश
अंधारात राहण्याची सवय होती मला,
प्रकाश पडला तर डोळे पांढरे व्हायचे.
पण तो दिवस काही वेगळाच होता,
ढगाळलेल्या आकाशात एक चंद्रमा दिसला.


काही दिवस वाटलं कि हा पौर्णिमेचा चंद्र,
येईल राहील आणि आभास सोडून जाईल.
पण त्या चंद्राचा रंग काही वेगळाच होता,
दगडावरील रेषेसारखा पक्का मनात ठसला.

ते ढग आता पुन्हा परत आले आहेत,
गेल्या वर्षभराच्या पावसाने सर्व दगड झीझले आहेत.
तरी त्या चंद्राची आठवण मनातून जात नाही,
आणि ढगाळलेल्या आकाशात त्याची प्रतिमाही दिसत नाही.

Love is all around

This is one of my most favourite songs. First time I heard it in some movie called Love Actually. Have a look...

I feel it in my fingers
I feel it in my toes
The love that's all around me
And so the feeling grows
It's written on the wind
It's everywhere I go
So if you really love me
Come on and let it show
You know I love you, I always will
My mind's made up by the way that I feel
There's no beginning, there'll be no end
'Cause on my love you can depend
I see your face before me
As I lay on my bed
I cannot get to thinking
Of all the things you said
You gave your promise to me and I gave mine to you
I need someone beside me in everything I do
You know I love you, I always will
My mind's made up by the way that I feel
There's no beginning, there'll be no end
'Cause on my love you can depend
I got to keep it moving
It's written in the wind
Oh everywhere I go
So if you really love me
Come on and let it show
Come on and let it,
Come on and let it,
Come on and let it,
Come on and let it show

The 25th Hour

Software industries are growing day by day. Now if we think a bit more on this, what does it mean by "Growing". Well they just add something new to their existing awesome software.

So i went mad some day and i thought about the "world". Why does the world does not grow? uh? that was wierd... but lets just imagine that if god would want to add something new to his existing software(?), what would he do?

You got it(that doesn't mean you are kinda brainy or something).He will surely think about having an extra hour.

So let's say GOD want to have a new 25th hour developed with latest technologies(or something), what are the features he should give?(show your System engineering talents in comments ;))

Now as I am the one writing this, I'll have the honour to ask for following features -

• First and the most important thing is "add this hour to the night and not to the day" cuz i don't want to spend another hour in company.
• May be if you can "Mute" everything(not people) for this time, it will be really cool cuz i seriously want some peace of mind.
• Let people talk only truth for this hour, it will be interesting to hear some confessions. (Atleast all the fake people will be identified).
• I don't want all those boring people around me who make me cry, atleast for this special hour.
• Let "innovation and creativity" flow through the air, and make this whole world like "Silicon Valley".

Thanks
