People who matter...

Life is too short to learn... is it?But we don't realize that we all are learners and infact we get to learn something in every moment of life its just that we don't realize it. Most of us subconsciously learn something from everything but then we come across people from whom we draw inspiration whom we idolize whom we care for more than others.They are the people who mean the world around us. But who are these people???
For me my parents and my sister are everything. Everything that revolves around me is always associated to them . My greatest source of inspiration are my parents.I learn how to live from them.My FATHER is my inspiration, my teacher and my guide. The person i respect the most is my father. I look up to him every time i want to learn something.He personifies hard work and selfless dedication. The way he goes about things so calmly even wen burdened by heights of responsibilities is something that amazes me. The determination to fulfill his duties so responsibly and to give his family much better than what he could is just inexplicable. He is the one about whom i think of when i feel i've been overloaded by responsibilities.I learn from him every moment.
My MOTHER, mama, is "world" for me. She is the one person with whom i can talk to at anytime irrespective of my state of mind.She always makes me feel comfortable when i talk to her, her advices are gold for me. Her suggestions are worth listening to without even a having a second thought.She teaches me how to live, she inspires me to do better, she motivates me when i m down and out.She is the one who subconsciously controls my actions and i feel her presence every moment irrespective of the fact that whether she is present beside me.This unseen presence always keeps me motivated. She is the one who scolds me when i go wrong, supports me wen i feel alone, cheers me when i m sad. In short she is everything for me. Sometimes even words fall short to describe some things.For whatever i m it is for her and my papa.
Now dis is for my SWEET SIS. She is my friend my mentor. She plays various roles for me. As a sister she's just lovable and her advices as an elder, is what i always pay heed to.As a friend she is amiable,sometimes we go on chirping and talking with all craziness in the world and she has never allowed me to think whether i miss a friend with whom i can share my emotions. I must say i m quite lucky to have her coz its she who goes through the dark glades first and den i follow her. I always have the security of having someone who's guiding me and i follow her as she shows me the way.She is the one with whom i fight but at the same time respect a lot.
How can i miss other few important persons here- My FRIENDS and more importantly fewer of these; my BEST FRIENDS(very few though).They inspire me in every field. Be it in sports or academics or moral ethics, everything. I owe to my few best friends for always being there beside me and helping me whenever i go wrong especially wen i m away from home. Atleast I can say they hold equal importance in my life if not more, as my parents do,hmmm... on a second thought a bit less; because no one can take the place of parents and sis.
These are the people whom i respect, whom i admire,on whom i can bank on in times of grief or enjoyment, in pain or pleasure; they are the ones who matter the MOST for me.

Friend-The sweetest word in the world

Friend, who is this anyways,a person whom u know can be called as a friend? Or some1 with whom u share your sad and joyous moments or the one who makes u feel in the top of the world even wen u are down and out. For me a friend is a blend of all these. I must say i have been lucky till date to have great friends at every point of my life. There has rarely been a point in my life till today that i felt that i m alone and the world being too lonely for me. When i was a child i used to play with some people, i considered them as my friends, later on i had an elite group of people whom i called as my best friends, even today they are my best friends. But not only them i have realized that my elder sister is "the best" friend of mine. So anyone can be a friend, it depends on u whom u can call as friend. But surely u can have large no. of friends but only a countable number of best friends with whom u can be absolutely free to talk to, you would miss them every moment. And i m lucky to have them too. May be a few but i value them the most in my life.
In school i had 5 friends with whom i would go on chatting for long hours, we would crack jokes, then do those childish mischiefs,lived our worst and best days together, oh those days! When i came to NITR i thought i would miss them a lot, infact i do but surprisingly not as much as i thought i would. The reason is i have found great friends here, who i won't say have replaced them, but surely they don't give me space to miss my old friends. I treasure these friends, may be God has always been quite gracious in giving me the company of elite people, whom i can say as my best friends. It has been just one year that i have met them but they are so friendly and amiable that we have become best of friends in a short period of time. And now i have realized that true friends are not the ones u know the longest but the ones who came and never left your side. One of these best friends of mine even made me realize that friend is the sweetest thing in the world, hence the title. And truly even i agree with it .
Friends are the ones whom u look up to when you are down, you yearn for when you feel like talking to, ones who would always keep u smiling even when u aren't, who would never forget u- be it good or bad times. Then is "sweet" the appropriate word? Some may argue but i can justify it. Sweet is a vast term that includes so many things; it means kind, generous, pleasing, dear or beloved and sometimes even excellent. Furthermore friends always add sweetness to your life and eliminate all the bitterness and sourness that exists in your life. So for me its justifiable to call the friends as the sweetest thing on earth.
Friends, this post is getting longer let me wind it up but before doing that i would dedicate this post to all my friends especially my best friends who will always remain special for me and pals you have made my life sweeter.

Dhoni-model as a captain.

Well it was last year that rahul dravid stepped down from captaincy citing no reason at all for his decision esp. aftr winning the npower test series(though india lost the 1dayers). No one was ready to take the mantle,not even the "great" Tendulkar. But 1 man stood up nd was ready to take over the responsibility-m.s.dhoni. Probably he was marked by some as a raw talent at that time. But the man proved what he is made of. A guy with exceptional talent no doubt. But the thing that amazed every1 was the maturity shown by the man. Take for instance the 20-20 WC he was a calm customer throughout the tournament,u never got to see the slam bang Dhoni that we were used to but certainly what we saw was a man on a mission who was ready to curb his natural style of playing and play as what the situation demands. That was the time when India was assured that here's a man on whose shoulders Indian cricket is safe enough to be guaranteed a smooth sail.He never showed his emotions on the field, was always a thinking man but never would you see him in a perturbed state on field. Be it the decision to hand over the ball to Joginder sharma in the last over in finals or giving yuvraj singh ample oppurtunities to bat up the order, he always knew what he was doing.Thats the hallmark of a confident person.The CB series win in australia is another instance when he showed why he is considered as a rare talent. He was never intimidated by the opposition but at the same time never showed that aggressive attitude on the field(a typical ganguly style).The praveen kumar gamble worked in the finals too and certainly you can't always say that ladyluck was on his side.He always puts in a lot of thought in his decisions ,it might sometimes appear silly to others, but thats the wisdom of this man and he has always been proved right. Even in the srilanka test series he was not afraid to tell the selectors that after all he is also a "human" being and to expect him to play every match was like asking too much from him. But nevertheless the happless indians(as it proved to be in the test series) struggled to read the Mendis mystery. The great technicians,the elegant maharajas, the master players all succumbed to his mastery. But quite inexplicably as many would say a player not having a sound technique,known to be a dasher read him quite well in the onedayers-yes MSD. He counterattacked the young spinner and preferred to play him as late as possible and most importantly led his team by example. This is what made all the difference and against all odds india won the oneday series. Kudos to this Champ player.Hopefully i m not exaggerating his achievements, because in india we seem to be so emotional sometimes that we expect a lot from some1 and if he fails to live upto that then leave him downtrodden. But this man deserves every bit of this credit. Hopefully india has found an able captain in him.
