સુખની આખી અનુક્રમણિકા
અંદર દુ:ખના પ્રકરણ
તમે જિંદગી વાંચી છે ?
વાંચો તો પડશે સમજણ
કવિ મુકેશ જોશી ની આ રચના આજે ટહૂકો પર સાં્ભળી.
ખૂબ જ સરસ ગીત પરન્તુ હુ ગીત ન વિચારો સાથે સં્પૂર્ણ સહમત નથી
જીન્દગી ે વાન્ચવાનુ નહી પણ જીવવાનુ નામ છે. જીન્દગી ના વીતી ગયેલા પાના ફરી વાન્ચવાને બદ્લે ાત્યાર ની ક્ષણ ને માણો ેમ મારુ માનવુ છે. હા, પસાર થયી ગયેલા સમય મા થી બોધ જરૂર લો, પન ે સમય ને બાન્ધી ન રાખો. જૂની વાતો ને ચગળવાને બદ્લે ાગલ વધો. તમે સમય ને પકડવાનો પ્ર્યત્ન કરશો તો સમય તમને બાન્ધી રાખશે, ેના કરતા ેને વહી જવા દો ને ે તમને પન મુક્ત કરી દેશે.મુઠી મા પકડેલી પળ માત્ર તક્લીફ સિવાય કાઇ નહી આપે.
આ ગીત મા મને બીજો પણ એક અર્થ દેખાયો. ઉપર થી સુખ ની અનુક્રમણિકા હોય અને અન્દર થી દુખ ના પ્રકરણ હોય. ઉપર પહેલી નજરે સુખી લાગતો માણસ અન્દર થી તકલીફ મા હોય એમ બની જ શકે. એટલે પોતાની વ્યથા ની કોઇ ની સાથે સરખામણી ન કરો. સુખ અને દુખ બન્ને જીન્દગીના અવિભાજ્ય અવયવો છે એટલે એમને સ્વીકારી, એમની સાથે જ જીવો. દરેક ને પોતાના હિસ્સા નુ સુખ અને દુખ મળતુ હોય છે એતલે બીજા સુખી અને પોતે દુખી એમ માની ને અન્યાય ના કરો
In short, life is too short and beautiful, don't ruin it!

Finally...I did it
Just a small matter but big achievement for me
For past couple of months I was thinking to brush-up my programming skills and instead of just reading books, I thought to download and practice ASP.Net. I know ASP.Net but never had any formal education as far as this technology is concerned. Hence wanted to start from scratch like architecture, installation, configuration etc.
I tried few times but somehow got stuck with some kind of error. Yesterday I read all the steps carefully and could troubleshoot all the problems with IIS. Obviously, I took help from Internet and just followed the guideline but still it is a big thing for me. Finally my efforts and tenecity paid off
I consider this as a positive omen. I did not do programming in nearly 3 years. I lost hope of again going back to programming. Now I am in touch with few companies for job and sponsership purpose where sound programming knowledge is must, especially ASP.Net. So may be something better is awaiting for me.
Not only feeling of accomplishment, but also some way to keep myself occupied. At this phase, I see so much of uncertainity in life. Nothing I can predict or foresee. I am having lot of inner chattering these days which mostly results into frustration. My expectations go high and feeling of dissatisfaction starts settling in. Deep sorrow sournds me which I have to make sure not to reveal to anybody. I can see that tension is taking toll on my health as well.
Atleast now I will be busy after going home in some way.... :)

It's festival time!
Tomorrow is Janmashtami. Krishna has been always my favorite God. Best resembling to human being :) "Great blend of bhakti, chaturya, shaurya and prem! kadach nav ras mana badha j ras Krishna ma jova malshe."
Till the time I was in India, Janmashtami was nothing more than a holiday in school, visit to temple and 'farali' food! After coming to US, any festival means making my bond to India stronger, cherishing those childhood days, giving tribute to mom by following all her rituals and also preparing to pass along the same to the next generation!
Every year around each festival, I do some research to find more about it and today was no exception. I am all set for tomorrow's early morning pooja. Krishna pooja followed by bhog and prasad, recitation of Krishna's 108 names and listening to bhajans. This time I am going to make special sweets home and already found link to one among the best collections for bhajans. 'll go to mandir and try to attend krishna-janm ceremony.
What I hate is to plan get-togethers, eat delicious snacks and play card just in the name of Janmashtami. For any religion, any God your feelings should be pure and sacred. If you cannot follo that's fine but at least don't try to hide something in the name of God.
I think, day-by-day I am improving myself; I am getting more honest and feeling closer to Almighty. That's why, in spite of stress and tension we are currently going through, I am simply excited about tomorrow and even more thrilled to tell about all of this to mom.
Don't we look great together? :)
