Indian crabs..

Heard this story somewhere..

In the world food market there were lot of boxes of crabs for sale. All the boxes were closed at the top which were containing crabs from different countries.
There was one box which was open, a customer asked the shopkeeper "why this box is open and dont you fear crabs will run away?"
Shopkeeper told " they are all Indian crabs, dont worry they can never do so, whenever one tries to jump out others will pull him down!".

In day to day life how many of us among ourselves do this? This is in our blood to pull if anyone tries to prosper. When will we end this type of behavior and work for the good of all?
The present example I found was state assembly election in Karnataka.

Welcome back!

Was lost long time without visiting this page. I dont have what is the reason behind this. I followed many blogs in between and read good posts. Never knew so many people are penning on the web as blog.
Always wish to be regular here and keep adding interesting stuffs, but always end up in just thinking :).

Cricket, unwanted talks has occupied the time lately. Now is the time where I have plenty time in my office too. Still when it comes to some important work/meeting some friends/starting something new I end up saying no time for all those.You must be thinking am lucky to have plenty time in office, I would like to say there is nothing torture than sitting idle in office or everyday when I get up have to think how am gonna spend time in office :(. Lately going through all the blogs around, read every bit of which I am finding interesting. I want to end this period soon.

There is again instability in life. You know one thing life never give you perfect period, or say oh man am having everything and happy here after! Every day or week come up with unheard different situations and challenges. Thats life for you. There is confusion! in my job. I myself not sure what the confusion is or my options are or should I really be worried about it. A challenge again.

Hope there is end to this period and come up with something new challenge and hope.

Days are passing faster

Lately office hours are extending due to lot of production stop issues.Sometime I wonder how this big critical projects are managed? You get so much production stop issues which are basic functionalities!! Wonder how they have not arrived at the beginning? Why am I thinking office matter at home that too on a weekend :(

Nowadays wondering how it rains exactly on weekend? These are the 2 days get to stretch a bit, practice tennis which i started newly, i know its not gonna last long as it is not quite common to play around. Thinking of going cycling but bloody rain.
I had the reason to skip some productive work on weekend but now no choice. Thought let me write a bit even though its not gonna useful to anyone.
Somehow this weekend no mood to eat anything good, else was in a good mood to cook anything which i know :P. Let me see how can I pass my weekend.

The day disaster struck

Once in my childhood I had heard that it was earthquake early morning and the utensils n all were making sound. That was wall I had experienced about earthquake. I was fast asleep that time…
This day was completely different. It was bright afternoon and I was happily chatting on gtalk in the middle of my work. People around in office were busy in their own works. In office you hardly hear anyone chatting with loud voice during noon.

There was small shake in my 5th floor office building. Till then I was adjusted to small shakes as it happened 2 days back as well sometime earlier. I was looking forward to something like that and it to end in few seconds. I kinda got scared when it did not stop instead started shaking increasingly, with sounds of window glasses cluttering, along with some colleagues hoo hoo sounds.
I was awestruck and got up from my seat as none was beside me. I switched off monitor and could not stand to the shake it was giving. I was holding the cubicle firmly and looking out and other colleagues.
Most of the native ppl were not panic by that time, lady beside me was saying don’t worry it will end soon. Nothing gonna happen, before she could finish those words everybody were really pissed off to the sake and noises around. Things near the walls started falling off; building was swinging madly, same with the nearby high rises. I was staring at the roof like when it ll fall. Seriously I was thinking all the people I know back home and imagining it as my last day. I never saw death to so near. This blood shaking was still continuing and every corner of the building was making crack sounds, door outside my floor was closed towards lift automatically. None allowed using the lifts, there were many announcements were going on but none were paying attention.

Things were getting worse with bigger shakes and never ending swing of the building. It extended almost 5-8 minutes of building shaking. Finally it slowed down. Not stopped!!.

I looked out as other buildings were swinging like coconut trees in the wind. It’s crazy. Nobody believes if building swing like that n they won’t fall down. It was shaking again and again in intervals. People were confused like whats happening. People were advised to stay inside building rather than going out on road, I came to know buildings are safer in that condition. Some of my colleagues had gone out to see how the building front my office were doing as they were newly built with 40 floors each. I found lots of people walking on the roads as if nothing big happened!! I learnt that even though they were frightened they were not showing it. Goodness..

When I came back to my desk, internet was not working, phone networks were down.
Luckily 3G on my phone was working and I could chat with my cousin and told him that I am safe and we just stuck with biggest earthquake of Japan. It is 4th biggest in the history of world. 8.9 M on rector scale!.. I guess I heard of 6 to 6.5 till then.

The rest of the facts of that day everybody in the world knows now….

Beginning...

Long time was thinking even I should write something, save it somewhere, probably read it sometime later and think about those days.
Many time this thought of writing stopped due to thoughts like, I may not be able to write well or what people may comment or I don't have a creative writing skill. The main hurdle was my poor English (I should admit as no longer I can fake it). Time constraint was one of the issue which used to come in my mind but it was not really a hurdle as, where there is a will there is a way.
Whenever I used to read other's blog used to think like, people put forth their silliest thoughts and still it looks good to read down the line or a remembrance. Sometime used to think what a waste of time, why should I write it and keep, why cant I remember them in my mind and enjoy sharing with concerned people. You cant really keep that moment's thought what you get, for long time, or what you feel something at that moment may die out where as the happened incident may remain. You get lot of expressions when you are alone and excited!!. You don't have anyone to express yourself.
Finally started to write something, not sure how far how good this will lead to. I want to enjoy myself and satisfied with the way it goes. There is nothing more than self satisfaction and content in this world.
Wishing myself am looking forward to compose some good contents. I am not sure what am gonna write like what subject or topic, I guess it will be a random.
