Change!!

Change: One inevitable reality of Life and of everything surrounding Life. Still we refuse to accept it with ease. Its just too difficult to comply with the reality even if i write a thesis about how real Change is! I know and i have written how change is one thing that never changes, but why is it sometimes so difficult to accept it? I know nothing is forever, everything good or bad has to change! It is just too difficult to...

Total Surrender

In Brida i read a very interesting quote..."What is outside is harder to change than what is inside". When i read this quote while reading the book, i felt how true it is. How much we struggle if we have to change our appearances or the personalities which we are to the outside world! And today i read in my daily morning devotional something that says: "A Christian life is one which is totally surrendered to HIM". Now this feels...

I Love NY!!

Foot Binding!

Am reading a rather unusual book these days. Its called Snow Flower and the Secret Fan. I have just started reading it and as much as i have read, it depicts a custom common in China called Foot Binding. While reading itself i feel it sounds so brutal, that i cant imagine what pain is involved in each stage of the custom. Young girls at the age of six are forced to go thru a mandatory custom called foot binding which is a mandatory...

Cherry Blossom!

Heard of the Cherry Blossom Festival in US of A??For people staying in Washington or even any other state of the eastern part of US, its not a new thing. But for someone like me who is experiencing the first Spring in US, it definitely is a new thing and sounded quite attractive. Since i did not know what a Cherry Blossom festival was so i googled about it and got some information about it. Unfortunately by the time i came to...

Man the Island!

Thinking of my life here in US i sometimes find myself wondering that i have become a completely new person now. I am not the same old Pretty who left India an year ago to add weightage to her resume by gaining work experience outside India. I still remember i used to be alone in India also, i used to go places alone even then but i was not so much of an independent individual as i am now i think. I always needed someone with...

ITs Politics..

Does this happen to all?May be it does and may be they know good ways of escaping out of IT. No matter how much ever dedicated you are to your work...getting trapped in some dirty politics from your client or parent company is inevitable. No matter how many levels you get promoted to...you still are so vulnerable to these dirty cobwebs...there is little you can do. As and when you gain experience in working with a client or technology,...

Good Friday.

Good Friday, The day of Jesus' crucifixion. This is a special day for me for i reliase with all my heart that Jesus shed his pure blood on the cross for my sins on this day. On this Good friday i have only one prayer, that this world becomes a better place. Most of the problems i feel arise in today's world because people have become so selfish, they have such evil and selfish thoughts that they cannot think beyond themselves....

The Passion Play

Maundy Thursday, the day before the crucifixion day! If i were in India i would have gone for a Maundy Thursday church service, but here having a service for Good Friday itself is a big thing. Coudnt have asked for Maundy Thursday! Anyways, i was happy that my pastor had arranged to take us for a Passion Play at a nearby city.The play called "Life of Jesus" is performed every year for 3 days during the Holy Week. For me, having...

Truth!

What actually is Truth?Is that something that someone tells you to believe on and you do?Or is that something that you read and know that it is true?Or is that something that you see and believe?Or is that something that you belive in through your inner self?The dictionary defines Truth in many ways: --> Conformity with fact or reality.--> Actuality or actual existence--> An obvious or accepted fact--> Agreement with...
