A place to LOVE and to be Loved....

Many times I listen to certain songs and I literally visualize some places or incidents or certain people. This really made me think that how much we relate music to our life.

Recently one evening I was driving back home and 'Edge of Desire' by John Mayers was playing on my ipod. Weather was slightly chilly, it wasn't too dark yet, average traffic was there on roads... and all of a sudden while listening to this song I almost felt like I was in UK. It took me back a year ago when I was in UK. This time of year then I was working at Microsoft and daily travelling to Swindon - Reading - Swindon. Autumn had just begun by then and I had just begun to experience UK winters. 

I used to listen to this song everyday while travelling. I love the music, I love the beats, I love the way its sung... like I can feel the desire (desire of wanting to be in UK) when I listen to this song. 

It's not just a song which reminds me of that place. There are small small things happening everyday which takes me back to that time. I become upset for a moment and then smile like it's kinda dream I am experiencing.... :-)

My friend told me once, never be upset / sad about things you love or really really want... by doing so you are sending negative vibrations to universe. Stay happy, wish, pray, have faith and believe in your dream and yourself that you love it, you want it... you gonna get it... :-)

I know visiting UK is not my top most priority at this point of time. But the feeling I have for this place is like being in love with someone for first time. It is like when you are in love with someone and you think about that person you feel butterflies in your stomach....the feeling is incredible...it brings smile on your face and happiness in your heart...

Read somewhere... 

 “You never really leave a place or person you love, part of them you take with you ,leaving a part of yourself behind.” 

and that's what happen to me when I came back to India... I brought the feelings with me of that place and left myself over there... 

My Shopping fetish....

We come across so many incidents in our day to day life... and we forget it... but someday if you are sitting and just a thought of such incident comes to your mind it makes you smile....and it makes you go in flashback  and live that moment....but it also sometimes makes you nostalgic.... as it is just a memory now...

Today someone praised my handbag and it just took me a year back...and all I could do was just smile... that funny incident of purchasing this handbag made me smile again....

A year ago... me and my bestie went for shopping to town center (as usual.. ;-)). We went to Accessorize and saw one bag... found it really attractive and wanted to buy but we decided not to buy as we felt the price was lil' high and we really didn't need a bag at that point of time... so we both looked at each other and decided not to purchase that bag and left the shop quietly...

Though we were out of that shop but that bag wasn't out of our mind... we were still discussing about that bag and convincing each other that it wasn't worth buying .. too expensive you know.. lol.... :-) after few steps we saw fashion fiesta coming towards us with the similar kinda bag in her hand... :-) Me and my bestie looked at each other and immediately turned back and went to accessorize again without even uttering a word to each other.. the acknowledgement our eyes did to each other was more than sufficient... :-)

Bestie picked up the same bag that fashionista was having and went n stood in queue for billing. I picked up the same one with different color. But was confused if I should buy it or not. I grabbed a bag and went near a billing queue and asked my friend (Just to convince myself as I knew I don't need a bag.)

Me, "I have so many bags I don't need this right?!!!"

She said, "Yes Suza, You don't need this bag you got quite a few."

(But I wasn't convinced yet as my heart was screaming .. "Don't think just buy" but My brain was saying... "Wait, think you really don't need this...")

But how many times mind take over heart... :-) "Hardly..." :-)

I asked my bestie again, "You know what, One bag has become old and another one is just okeyish... And this one isn't that expensive. All the bags I already have are almost of this price..."

And like any best friend does, "She got convinced with my point.. as we both wanted to buy that bag..."

And finally heart took over m ind ... lol... :-)... we both were immensely happy to buy those bags and laughing on our craziness that how we convinced ourselves to buy them... :-) and this small incident still makes me happy.... and reminds of my crazy times...

 we girls are crazy... once we want something we will find a reason the grab it... ;-)

Happiness is...

Recently came across a page on Facebook.... and I instantly smiled just by reading the name of the page... Name read like "The Happy Page"... :-) and when I saw the content of the page it actually made me happy...  it felt just good.... :-)

When I saw the images of this page it really made me think that we are happy in small small things but we just forget to realize it...like when I read this post.... "Happiness is new shoes.. " and I smiled... because I could so connect it to this image.. Cause every time I bought a pair of shoes... I am immensely happy... at least for next few days... I literally kiss my new shoes.... it just makes me soo much happy... :-)

But the point here is not to love my new shoes... point is... how small small day to day incidents of our life makes us happy...!!!! 

Though its 

...watching your favorite TV show

...sharing secret with your best friends

...someone saying you have lost weight

...or just a simple thought of someone

There are N number of reasons to make us smile or feel happy... its just we need to realize it... and how do we realize it...??!!!! As per my thoughts, just by living each moment of life... rather than stressing ourselves... We need to enjoy each moment we come across... and we will feel how much life is easy and all the stress and tension can be taken away with just a small feeling of being happy... :-)

It's not a rocket science but training yourself to see and feel happiness will lead you to a better life...and If not a better life then it will surely give you strength to face the tough times of our life...

I have realized over the period of time in life that... Time never remains same for long.. it changes... but not as per our convenience but as per its convenience... so just chillax, sit back and see the life happening... you stressing yourself is not going to resolve your problem... I am not saying not to do anything to resolve issues in your life... but taking stress or tension is also not going to help rather it will add on to your problems... so smile and face the challenge of life... Because every day is new... so welcome it with a smile, cause loads and loads of happiness is waiting for YOU. :-)
