My husband receives a fwd from a cousin about 'Rajinikanth', Southern India's answer to Jackie Chan, Clint Eastwood, and many other stars put together and wants more than just the two of us to get a good laugh.. The man can defy gravity, rise from the ashes (literally) and smash a dozen heads in one blow!! You need to watch a movie of his to fully understand where I am coming from but the following list will certainly give you a good feel...enjoy..
RAJNIKANTH ...Superhero and supervillain of the Southern Screen !
1. When Rajinikanth does push-ups, he isn't lifting himself up. He is
pushing the earth down.
2. There is no such thing as evolution, it's just a list of creatures that
Rajinikanth allowed to live.
3 .Rajnikanth can divide by zero.
4. Rajinikanth can judge a book by its cover.
5. Rajinikanth can delete the Recycle Bin.

7. Rajinikanth once kicked a horse in the chin. Its descendants are today
called giraffes.
8. Rajinikanth can make onions cry.
9. Rajinikanth destroyed the periodic table, because he only recognizes
the element of surprise.
10. Rajinikanth once got into a knife-fight....The knife lost.

12. Rajinikanth doesn't breathe. Air hides in his lungs for protection.
13. Rajinikanth does not own a stove, oven, or microwave, because revenge
is a dish best served cold.
14. Rajinikanth has already been to Mars. That's why there are no signs of
life there.

24. When you say “no one is perfect”, Rajinikant takes this as a personal
insult.

I dream of Jeannie!
If only psychics, tarots, crystal balls, genies and their flying carpets could do things for me ! They'd have a special place in my home and heart :)
Being wishful is not new to me, it is supposedly part of the astrological sign package that I was born into. Only its at a peak today and I am beginning to think, this is the chosen route my mind prefers to take when it becomes too overwhelmed. I make myself believe that little escapism won't hurt and thus enjoy the little time my train of thoughts last, before reality hits me.
In this particular time, my thoughts and emotions change like the colors in a kaleidoscope, endlessly beautiful, surprising and each better than the previous. In my little kaleidoscope, I see myself travelling with my other half to far and distant places, Ulan Bator-Mongolia, the great wall-China, the churches at Lalibela-Ethiopia, Blue City Chefchaouen- Morroco, Pyramids at Giza-Egyp and many more. I meet great people, eat great food and take in the geographical, cultural and philosophical beauty of each place and savor each moment. If only I had that magic carpet or genie at my disposal...
Trust me, I tried my luck and used the services of an online psychic chick once. One with a mysterious name, and from her picture, dressed in a long sparkly robe, a blue turban adorning her long flowing hair, trinkets covering her head to toe and in her hands a beautiful crystal ball, the gateway to all my queries. But all I got for the $20 I gave her was a persistent answer that I had three kids when I had none and that I'd travel to an exotic country when I had just started working and no one ever promised me immediate leave..
Like I said before, I believe wishful thinking is my natural birth right, thanks to my star sign and the strong confirmation from Linda Goodman and I hope to continue to enjoy these little sojourns my mind takes..

Eat Pray Love with an open mind..
Never thought I'd blog and never thought I'd become that someone who has a need to share personal thoughts and opinions about minor, inconsequential, non-life changing daily events in a not-so-private way. However, there's always a first time for everything and this happens to be mine..
I am yet to find out what particular event or incident triggered my urge to write but for now I'd like to assume that watching Julia Roberts portray Liz Gilbert in Eat Pray Love was certainly a factor..
With my choices almost always guided by intuition, reading a book and then watching its movie adaptation, has been the norm for me and at most times I've favored the book over the movie. But when I came across the book Eat Pray Love on friends'coffee tables or in book stores nothing about the title or synopsis aroused my interest and watching a movie based on the book was therefore certainly not on my mind. Julia Roberts and a lazy Sunday noon however changed that I caught the movie with a woman friend this past weekend.
When I think of the movie with an open mind, uncorrupted by the book reviews or my own personal opinion formed from absorbing the contents of the book beforehand, the movie seemed long but easy to watch, arousing my appetite for food, travel and personal transformation. I found parts of it resonate with my own self-discovery journey and its struggles and could relate to her rantings, sudden tears and many more things. I was in a happy place until I tried to wish-list the book on Amazon today and decided to read the reviews before doing so.
What alarmed me was how the negative reviews (which far outnumbered the positive ones) influenced my perception of what I until then considered a simplistic tale of woman's journey of self discovery. I still believe and would like to hold on to that view but the negativity certainly got me thinking. Applying it to life in general I wondered how many times I'd entirely adopted or accepted someone else's thoughts and opinions and made decisions based on that. How many times I'd possibly let myself believe that was the right way to think and how my thinking had been wrong in the first place. And how that probably altered existing relationships, or set the wrong stage for a new one and how my mind refuses to have it any other way in some instances but does show remorse and regret when it comes to some other, giving me the hope that I am still learning and shall continue to do so...
With that said, I'd like to hold on to the view that each one's struggle and journey is different from another's and what floats my boat may sink another's just like what floated Liz's boat seemed to sink many others..
