LOVE AS WE KNOW IT!!

LOVE AS WE KNOW IT
A relationship can either break or make you ..so from someone who grew up on a surfeit of mush to someone who balks at the idea of happily ever after ...I have come a long way. From nurturing visions of the perefct other to the realization that true happiness evades those who looks for it in others,  I have come a long way. From a hopeless romantic to a true blue cynic , I have come a  long way …but I am not the only one. The concept of unconditional love is redundant in our times of conditions, its so much  easier to walk away than walk through.  So my conclusion is that the only relation where unconditional love can be a reality and not an illusion is parental love.  Romantic love has undergone a paradigm shift in these days of instant gratification. It is just a phase which wears out. Today anyway does not believe in waiting around for destiny happen   Why should I waste my time on one human being when they are so many out there ? is the common refrain with youngsters .  Is there someone made for me in this world well I don't know , may be I should start looking around and have fun while at it is another frequently used logic . I started the wrong way ...invested too much in one person only to discover its a waste of time., time is precious, time is money is yet another. These days , everything a struggle, a never ending battle so people are searching for zero commitment and hundred percent fulfillment which of course is elusive.  

Someone  said me and there was no us left ...in a sea of faceless duos , we are just another ...all illusions of the perfect other are shattered ,,,there is no other.... only bother ...one comes  alone and goes alone. The sooner you understand this universal truth , the better it is for your emotional health. Don’t give anyone the power to control your emotions , to dictate your moods or command your life .

Life is a tale told by an idiot full of sound and fury ,signifying nothing…how right was Shakespeare .

WORK FROM HOME, IS IT HERE TO STAY/ WFH: A FAD OR THE NEW NORMAL?

-
It seems that someone has pressed the pause button in our lives.  Suddenly, the frenetic pace of the average urban office goer, synonymous with rush hour traffic jams and back-to-back meetings, has changed irrevocably. The office conferences have moved online, and hours of commuting have been replaced by endless hours of staring at the computer and incessant video conferencing calls. Say hello to the new workplace, your desk, in the comfort of your home. With the  lockdown , we are now at a crucial crossroad in the fight against  Covid -19; the virus has crippled economies and shut down countries and while we deal with the enormous  healthcare challenges, the economic challenge might just be the more far reaching one.  As  lockdown  restrictions are eased and people return to work, the question remains, is work-from-home ( WFH ) here to stay or is it just a fad, a forced choice that companies are making in times of social distancing due to the pandemic. Interestingly, back in

Istanbul; The magical city where the east meets the west .

meets the west. “The World is a book and those who do not travel read only a page” St. Augustine. Mark Twain said “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you did not do than the things you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sail. Explore!” … The word travel probably originates from French word “ t ravail”. The literal meaning of the  word “travel” is to go from one place to another, to undertake a journey.   And whether,  one travels out of choice or compulsion; for business or pleasure, whether one travels in business class or aboard a luxury cruise or  goes backpacking on a shoestring budget, there is this indescribable joy in exploring the unknown and unraveling the unseen.    Whatever is the reason for travel, one indisputable fact remains that travel is a great teacher. Travel teaches precious and priceless lessons of life. In fact, travel is the best education you can get.  Travel

LIFE : AS YOU LIKE IT

LIFE : AS YOU LIKE IT Why do we wait for something or someone all the time , why don’t we just turn around and start with where we are who we are as there will be never a perfect day to start living …. There are no absolutes, no black and white , a lot of blackish white and whitish black and greys, so we need to start where we are , with what we are, who we are and start living ….the way we want to live as they live the life you love and love the life you live.  The question remains why do we need someone’s sanction, someone’s approval to make us happy or find complete contentment. May be we are looking for reassurance that we are doing the right thing the right way …but  there is no right or wrong , there is your way and my way….the big question is how make my right work for you and vice versa….life is a sum of parts , there are no wholes, we just need to embrace every moment as it is in all its beauty or ugliness as the case , whether what is thrown at us by fate is   g
