"Bubble Bubble in the Air"

I saw a cartoon this morning on 'Baby First' which was pretty funny! It also got me thinking...

What they were showing is that out of the blue an object would appear and this little creature and a friend had to create a bubble to resemble the object - you know - small little bubbles like the one's we used to blow out when we were kids from those colorful soap bottles! It was really alot of fun to watch and I was laughing so much because it looked so very cute and silly!

Then I thought to myself - wouldn't it be awesome if we got what we thought of - the bubble shaped image would be transformed to the real thing! And you know what - I keep hearing that it's possible to get what you dream of as long as the dream is strong enough.....we as humans DO have that power...just that we don't make enough use of it. Hmmmmm...

The X – Factor….the Ex-Factor

So what is this big deal about the whole X component? How do you define it? Does the X factor last for always or does it run out at some point of time? Do you need something to keep it running or am I just being cynical?

The X factor is by no doubt different for everyone – there’s this one thing that makes everyone tick in its own unique way and that one thing is again – unique for every single one of us.

The X factor applies to people, friends, partners, jobs, food, and countries – just about anything generic.

Yesterday I was thinking to myself – does the X factor ever change into an ‘Ex-factor’? These are a few things that I think are responsible for the conversion speaking solely about couples:

• Finding out something about him after a significant period of time that you never thought could be associated with him
• When he starts spending more time with his friends than with you
• When he forgets things about you and the both of you
• When there are gaps of silence and you don’t know what to talk about anymore
• When he thinks about himself and what he feels like more than what you want and feel
• When he says – “that was in the beginning – this is now”
• When it's ok if he does it but it's a crime if you do it.
  
• When you start asking yourself this question more and more – “can I really spend the rest of my life with him???”
• Last but not the least – when you start envying your friends for what they have going with their partners as opposed to what you have.

That being said I have to emphasize that the same goes for the opposite sex – simply substitute the ‘he’ with a ‘she’ and you’ll get the picture. I never try to be biased when I write so for clarity’s sake….

It is something to think about – if everyone knew what was responsible for the ‘Ex’ factor they would avoid behaving in such a way but on the other hand if everyone knew how to get that ‘X’ factor they would do everything to have it and get what they want – the right job, the right partner, the right stocks! True to its word – life is unpredictable – you never know what’s coming at you next…the X or the Ex?

The only truth about life is nature.

You get what you see.

The best part is, nature is always a treat to the eye, it could be a snow covered field, a sunny beach with clear blue waters or even a rich green forest with the moon shining upon it which gives you that 'time stopped for a while' feeling.

That's the only thing I believe in - nature....

Aaj Main Khush Hoon :)

So I was actually dreading today - the whole idea of the plastic - ness and the fake - ness. It was the co. 6 yr party.

Fortunately, from plastic it turned out to an intellectual session with me n one of the senior analysts discussing biotech and the market in general and it's potential - I felt like a nerve that was sleeping was tickled and awoken - it felt better than the peach beer I was drinkin!

It's bad but I don't know why I sometimes need people to believe in me for me to actually believe in mysef - it's not that I don't believe in myself - it's just that I lose myself along the way somewhere at times amidst all the work.

I need to find me - I need all the possible help and more than ever I need my own personal input.
