Small Steps.....

I have been thinking and thinking that most of the time we try to accomplish something big whether it is about ambitions, job,  career, success, or some legacy. What we usually forget or ignore is that small steps can be fruitful and sometimes the thrill of reaching the goal itself is a lot more enjoyable and valuable than the goal itself. For example , wipe off someones tears, or put a smile on someones face,  saving some animal in distress, enjoying a cool evening appreciating the nature around you, helping out your neighbour etc.

We have forgotten the joys that we can get in doing something which to us, seem meaningless or worthless. most of us have even forgot to smile - a genuine smile that truly shows the happiness and content in your heart , may be I am wrong we have even forgot how to be content. Well we do need to start taking those small steps and start taking pleasure in those small precious moments.

My Favourite Movies

ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND
.........
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray'r accepted, and each wish resign'd
........
The title is taken from the poem Eloisa to Abelard by Alexander Pope, the story of a tragic love affair, where forgetfulness became the heroine's only comfort. Words like Lacuna, Blue ruin, Night Picnic, Montauk will remind a person this great movie, those who like Jim Carry have never expected him to deliver such an intense performance, in the end you will end up appreciating the story, cast, acting, and the on screen chemistry between Kate Winslet (who I believe is the next Meryl Streep or the best actress of her generation and definitely deserves an Oscar for this role). Those who like movies about relationships and unconcious love, this movie is a real treat for them . I watched this movie 20 0r 30 times(no joke).

My Rating: 96/100

Remembering the Night Sky






These pictures are for those who have forgotten to appreciate how beautiful the night sky is. These few pictures are to motivate people to take some time out to appreciate and enjoy the night sky instead of watching a movie or playing a computer game. Fell the air on your face that will remind you to that you still are human instead of a 9 - 5 clockwork humanoid. My suggestion is go out tonight along with a walkman or an mp3 player, my recommendation for music is listen Pavane pour une Infante Défunte (William Orbit Remix) by Maurice Ravel , Field of view by William Orbit , with these tracks I bet you will enjoy the night even more or you can can use any other songs that you like. Have Fun!!!

ALL PRAISES ARE DUE TO "HIM"...........




ALL PRAISES TO "HIM" (ALLAH TAALA) FOR CREATING COSMOS AND FILL IT WITH BEAUTY , LIGHT AND COLORS.

GUIDING STARS

Stars brighter than ever

Be a skeptic or be a believer

Northern star is shinning bright

It's there for you to guide

Or when you’re lost in dark, what you see?

Nothing but burning candles in black blue sea

Therefore live your life without regret

The truth is out there that you’ll get

Then you find that the truth is nothing but

That you are made of star dust

In search of truth when you go too far

Then you will also become a guiding star

This may be your destiny and fate

That ray of light will take you to heaven’s gate

My Favourite Movies

BLADE RUNNER

One of those movies that is not easy to digest and requires multiple sittings. Vangelis did an amazing job in making the score. Ridley Scott gave us a very believable picture of LA in its futuristic and dystopian form. I like everything about this movie the story, cast, acting , sets, background music. It is a must see for all sci fi fans. Following are my favourite lines from the movie.

"...I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain... "

My Rating: 90/100

Meet Jack And Jill



THe first one is the picture of their mother.You can indimidate Jack(the white and black one) easily but Jill - there is nothing that can scare her. She is not even afraid of her mother and she is exactly like her maternal aunt. She reminds me of my other cat "Bullet" , that's what we used to call him, unfortunately he died in 2004 in a road accident.

Remembering "The X Files"

Whether it's about fighting the future or trusting no one , whether it's about looking for the truth that is out there or about wanting to believe. We all agree that we can't imagine 90s without the X Files which gave us two of the greatest characters of Mulder and Scully in the sci-fi /mystery genre, we still cherish the car chases, the fear of the unknown, the platonic chemistry between Mulder and Scully , the super soldiers, the alien hybrid and the monster of the week. And I am thankful to Chris Carter for creating such a superb TV show.
