A quick refill...

Just realized this page has not been updated for quite some time now. It was brought to my attention by a colleague at work suggesting that there were issues with my blog opening up. I guess this was to do with the recent migration of blogger to region specific domain redirection (ok, geek alert!).

2012 has surely been a better year compared to the turmoils of 2011. I have decided to make peace and carry on. Family and Friends seem to be the keyword this year. Days, weeks and months pass in the wink of an eye, looks like I'm keeping my self busy :) Seems just yesterday that we had welcomed 2012, but half of the year is already gone by!

Its my favorite time of the year again; the monsoons ! People keep cursing the rains and the hardships of traveling in them. Guess the rain gods are not very pleased with the constant complaining and have decided to come down at their own will this year. I have tried to make the most of it on all monsoon showers that have happened till now, thanks to the proximity of office I do not have to suffer much when it comes to traveling in the rains.

A long break from blogging and this is what happens. The blog post turns into multitudes of thoughtless paragraphs. Need to channelize my thoughts and start to pen them down more often here :)
Until the next urge to blog, this is it!

How do you send an email to heaven ...

"xyz Wishes loved ones in heaven could be contacted by mobile phone, email and skype. "  - This is one of the post I read on wall of my friend on Facebook.  I shrugged it off in the usual non-sensical comic style that I apply to every situation or moment I think would not be possible to handle normally. Only that a moment later I got an email from Birthday Alarm reminding me that "Send a Greeting Card to Subhash Chandra Saxena for their Birthday on Sunday July 3rd". They even promised me that "if I chose their specially designed B'day cards they would deliver it to Subhash Chandra Saxena". Only that they do not know that it is an delivery that no logistics in the world can ever deliver ! The thought re-occured to me and has been in the corner of my mind since then. How I wish I could send a greeting to my dad one last time, or probably order the "Worlds Greatest Dad" t-shirt  online and surprise him. Today as my mom pointed out earlier ...

A change from home ....

Life sure is a roller coaster ride. Filled with all ups and downs. Everything good is balanced by something bad and vice-versa. Lets just say that the year 2008 has been one such roller coaster ride for me. Lets cut to the chase and not go into the details now. For the past few weeks it was a real dull atmosphere at home. Each one of us had got really bored of the monotonous and repetitive schedule we were following. It was only last Friday night that an idea of family outing stuck chords in my mind. Saturday morning was sure gonna be a much awaited change at home. The day began a little early for me on Saturday morning. Got up at 9 instead of 10 :) . Asked my parents to get ready and prepare themselves for a day of fun and excitement. I was just wondering how all throughout the year we make plans and enjoy till the Everest of our lives ! But there are seldom any plans made with family. So Saturday morning, unlike the other days the monsoon clouds were too afraid to ruin my plans today...

Something Magical....

Just two days back I had my recent escapade on 26th of March 2010. I had taken two days off from work and wanted to spend quality time with mom and dad. We had been yearning to visit the Shirdi shrine for quite sometime now. It has become a yearly ritual where we drive down to Shirdi, seek blessings and pray for peace and happiness. We started our journey early in the morning around 6:45 AM. It was going to be a long journey, almost 250 kms each side. Since it was off-peak hours we managed to leave behing Mumbai and Thane in close to an hour and a half. Some things that had changed from the last time we drove down the Nasikh- Shirdi route were better roads, less traffic and a lot of modernization in the villages en-route. We managed to reach Nasikh in around 5-6 hrs with 2-3 stoppages in between. The ride from Nasikh to Shirdi was close to 2 hours. We reached Shirdi around 1 PM in the afternoon and a huge crowd and rising mercury welcomed us to the holy town. After check-in to a ho...
