The Social Week!

What a week! Socializing galore! From outings with individual friends to social gathering with people from 7-8 countries, to send-offs, to treats and more partying, it's been one heady end-of-semester celebration! (And more to come! And my semester is technically not even done yet, haha!) The most number of people I've met within a week and the most fun I've had in a long time. Always great to be with friends!

Some bond over drinks, some over movies, some over games, some over philosophy, some over bitching (:P), there are so many facets to just how much you can connect with someone. It's amazing how so many of these outings weren't even planned; single pings, sudden whims, and off we went! Impromptu fun at its best! Some of them were times when I just woke up with nothing much to do (yeah that seems to be happening a lot lately, ignorance about work I say, bah it's summer!) or was down for seemingly no reason, and bam! Someone would call and drag me out.

I write this post just to say thanks to all the wonderful people I spent the past week with. It's truly a blessing to have so many friends and folk that care, when you're so far away from home. And some moving onto face greater adventures, I wish them the best! Thank you for being a part of my life, your presence makes it colorful. Cheers!

On the Learning Curve: Philosophy

Secret. The Law of Attraction. Subconscious Mind. Atonement.

Being showered with hordes of teachers since past 2 years. Ask and ye shalt receive. Life questions and philosophy, The New Thought, all being bombarded at me from different sources. Truly enriching. Call it too much free time or too much non sense, I never seem to get enough of what I read. I read more, hear more (podcasts), see more (webcasts). Each author/teacher leads to more teachers, and the journey continues.

Rhonda Byrne, Esther Hicks, Eckhart Tolle, Richard Bach, Neale Donald Walsch, Jack Canfield, Jane Roberts, Randy Pausch, Charles Haanel, Bob Proctor, Wallace Wattles, Napolean Hill..... I can go on. And wow, to see so many names I've read on one topic, it amazes even me as I write this.What's amazing is how much these teachings intersperse in what we read of hear in mainstream media. In works of the likes of Oprah Winfrey, John Lennon, Dan Brown, J.K.Rowling, Ayn Rand and too many more. Din't really know I could read so much on a segment of Non-fiction that isn't even a story. A study. Learning in this 'field' truly interests, intrigues and grips me. Life comes a full circle (at age 24) when I'm consumed in this pursuit. 

As I imbibe it all in my way of life and living, hope I contribute my bit to the spread and awareness of the same as I move along. That, and a world steeped in peace and prosperity, is a dream most cherished and nurtured. Amen!

Love is..when not

She has the most wonderful man in her life,
yet she doesn't.
She is the luckiest woman in the world,
still she's not:

"How do I erase love,
when there can't be hate?
How do I replace space,
where the memory remains?

How do I be your friend,
when I love you more?
How do I feel no more,
when I've felt so deep?

How do I laugh out loud,
when I weep inside?
How do I cry out loud,
when your shoulder's gone?

How do I let you go,
when I'm bound so fast?
How do I hold you nigh,
when you cast a void?

When do the tears run dry,
for the one I cry?
When do I weep no more,
for the days go by?

How do I let this go,
when it's already gone?
How do I swallow and smile,
when its real no more?

There is one true love,
the one that's always mine.
But friends we will be,
so love can always shine, so it can always shine.."

And so the love remains,
a ceaseless flow.
Love it is..always, when not.

Frequency Modulation

Ever fallen prey to wrong interpretations owing to bad network? I just had mine recently when I assumed my best friend's new kitty underwent ear surgery to remove a cyst, over a phone call in bad frequency range. And today when I called her up to ask how the kitty was doing and after being assured the kitty's fine, the friend says she's (my friend's) on pain killers. That's when I realized all the cat got was a rabies shot and the surgery was, in fact, done on my friend!

Funny thing, this frequency. And I don't mean just the mobile network, I mean the real frequencies that we as humans emit and receive. If Noetic Sciences (intro courtesy: Dan Brown's 'The Lost Symbol'), Quantum Physics and 'Brainwave Technology' are to be believed, we are all constantly emitting different frequencies, good and bad. We are, after all, just energy fields. Source energies. And by the 'Law of Attraction', attracting like frequencies like tv towers (info courtesy: Rhonda Byrne's The Secret). The philosophy of the end of the world in 2012 also boils down to a 'frequency shift' in scientific terms. Why 2012? Zodiac. Off topic.

So simply put, you happy, you feel happy, you emit happy vibes, and voila! Happiness returns doubly! Its a simple and most beautiful philosophy. My friends and I have used this theory and it works, and its the most amazing law ever! The Law of Attraction! Enough jargon here, you could look up the material and fields I've mentioned above.

As for the kitty-friend misinterpretation story, you might wanna put yourself in the right frequency in life, or the end result could be you in the wrong surgical table/circumstance in life. Feel Good. Stay Happy! :)
