Have a look at my "Angels of Joy!!"

Today I created and dedicated a new blog to the angels that I admire and love..
They have been with me through the ups and downs and always created a joy when the chips were down.
They have so much positive energy around them!! For instance, while talking on phone this morning, I happened to see one "angel" moving around gracefully near me! And that cheered me up!! A simple glimpse is enough to light up the mood!! So have a look of my all new space dedicated to them here..Just love them!!


With love..

Brand called MTR-- Mavalli Tiffin Room!!

Today while reading an article on the 50 best restaurants in Indian Metros, it was such a pleasure to see the name of [MTR, Lal Bagh road] of Bangalore also being listed!! It brought so much nostalgia to the fore that I decided to put it in this public blog! MTR has always been a hallmark of quality, and the brand name that it gained largely through word of mouth is simply amazing to say the least! It is and will always remain my favourite brand in instant mix!
And the most interesting part is that I was not aware of its full name till I read the article in a magazine called "More"..!!!..It's Full name is "Mavalli Tiffin Room" which started off a s a small tiffin centre and now is a household name all over!!
Talking about brands, sometimes people go purely by brand name, which is not right. It has to come with that special mark, trust and class, just like MTR, Sony etc...[varies from person to person though!]




As always, With love..

Thoughts of the day..

Sometimes the distractions in our daily lives take us away from our real aspirations and source of joy. They create an illusion of joy and happiness, when in reality they are actually impediments to them.
Going through the amazing blog posts of Big B -- Amitabh Bachhan[bigb.bigadda.com], one feels that life of a celebrity is never so easy! It also teaches us something related to maintaining our focus on the main source of joy--our family, our aspirations, our dreams, etc.. to come up trumps over a period of time and maintain the same. Kudos to Amitabh ji for sharing his valuable experiences and thoughts with all of us without any intermediary between in their purest form, and on such a regular basis, that if you were to be unaware of his identity, you may think that he is a blogger by profession!! There is a lot to be learnt, and even more to be implemented if we were to get atleast 10% of success that he has achieved with single-minded dedication to his source of joy [acting]. Similarly each and everyone of us has some or the other source of joy, and something with which we measure our happiness and success. Its important that we find that and focus primarily on that. It may not be necessarily related to money or profession. It could be personal, or a pure internal joy that we all have in plenty. And for God's sake, I am not talking of any spirituality here! Its all about keeping things simple! As simple as telling yourself every morning "I want to be happy" [without any shade of selfishness]. Mind you, it works if done regularly..
Thats it for today..catch you all later!!


With love..
