Ub kya hoga?

Aaj urdu mai likhnay ko dil kuraha hai -tho urdu english mai hojaye! Waisay tho urdu , urdu letters mai bhi likhi jasukthi hai -lekin ub woh software kaun install kuray! Acha tho din kaisa raha is naye mauhaul mai...hmm acha ek meeting cancel ki ek kay bunday gayeb hogay-let the fun continue!! Kya bol rehi hoon -hmm yaha say waha aur waha say yaha ...kuch tho hai -kehi tho hai -shahyri? not quite!

My love for ...

How empty life would be if we didn't have a cup of tea. Frappacino's and coffees are truly ace but Tea is definitely in a league of its own.If brewed properly in the traditional way with a teapot on hand , some boiled milk and a stick of cinnamon a deadly combination has been made. A packet of choclate digestives and ignoring the calorie police- life may just be complete! All this crazy natter about tea and biscuits shows my age but hey since when has age been anything but a number!! Chai hai tho jahan hai !

Another bites the dust

Really should start taking my own advice more. How many times have I said I won't do that again and then have gone and done just that!! My words of wisdom if actually applied to myself may produce wonders -but no -I will go and act the pro -while my mind and heart go haywire!! I seriously need to write a book on how many times common sense just isn't very common!!

Again

Starting a new role again. Have to admit this job keeps me on my toes and thats what I love about it. It brings your insecurities to the surface and forces you to deal with them there and then! It's so easy to just brush them under the carpet and let them double and treble in size rather then facing them. This role doesnt let me do that ! Life has been kind -Allah tera shukr.

Revive!

Was that holiday grand or was that holiday grand? Gave me a whole new perspective! I was burning out here and now feel rejunvenated and ready to take new things on. Its great to be young and alive. I can do anything I want to -absolutely anything and everything!

Running away!

I have decided to run away -am jetting off to the middle east . Am going there for a whole week away from work. I won't know anyone there but some family and thus am hoping for complete and utter shutdown. Shut down of the mind and the soul. Almost like hibernation. Away from London where life is becoming faster with each day. While these past two months have been relatively slow paced, this last week has been crazy. I am helping to organise a fashion show for a well known charity, interviewing for a new role in my company and meeting and greeting! This meeting and greeting has taken on a completely new dimension. How can choice be so vast and yet so limited. One has potential, while another has eyes only for you , another has a sense of humour and yet another can't get enough of you. Some lie and hide the most obvious facts so where does this lead me!! On a screaming spree !!!!! Shut down ..1...2...3...

Twists

There I was driving along the career highway and bang-A manager hits me full force ! Hehe Its amazing how some managers focus on their team and others only focus on themselves. I mean how can you expect to deliver group productivity if all you do is lay down the law and remind your team of the rules. We all think our rules are right. We guide our careers and know best so how can a manger think that their objectives would be more important than ours?Human nature is fascinating and stress a silent killer. Its so easy to become complacent and forget the fun of the game. Why did I want that career that would involve be new every day. It would involve meeting new people and developing successful relationships at lightening speed. I wanted it and I have it. Allah ki mehbani say. If everything was meant to be hunky dory all along why would anyone work hard and want to be part of the game. I used to thrive on challenges and always look for new ones but have recently found myself slipping on t...

On the verge of something new

Travelling has become such a large part of my life lately. The good news is will not have to do as much for the next few months. My new role should introduce a new learning curve. I have this strong feeling something is going to happen. Something new and refreshing is just round the corner.This feelings strange.Wonder if it is in some way a prediction!!How fun would that be//..but what could it be..here's to waiting...;P

Breathe

Writing is an old passion. Why have I turned away from it so many times.Why do we stop doing the things we love doing. We get so caught up in our lives-jobs, travelling, meetings etc -its non-stop. I need a time out -Breathe and sieze the moment. If this is what life is all about shouldn't we all be dead now? Why go through the endless motions if the best things in life are going to pass us by -because we're to busy to live them. I want to feel each emotion to the fullest, love, pain, anger, confusion -everything-listen more and say less, fall in love with words again and read books that never interested me , swim in deep oceans to be surrounded by nature in its purest form, listen to the voices around me rather than ignore them as noise, hike up treacherous mountains, get soaked in the rain just when i've changed, travel to unseen places, spend more time with myself, give more than I take from my friends, care illimitably,walk alone for miles with my mp3 player, i want to ...
