One memorable ride

I believe that life is valuable and each day is a blessing from GOD.On that evening I realized power of prayers and my faith on him(GOD) become strong.It was my first day in B'lore and i was about to leave from my workplace.I was totally new to this place, unawared of people, languages,roads, addresses etc.
It was around 10:00 pm and i have to leave from my office to go home. My home was around 25 km away from my office
I become worried to reach home safely and Unfortunately , I have to go by my own convenience.

I just pray to god and asked an Auto driver standing in front of a shop and he took 15 minutes to refuse me.
At that time, i felt value of every minute slipping from my hands.
Then suddenly, one Auto came in front of me (like a Hero Car generally comes to rescue heroine in bollywood movies) and the driver asked me " Madam, Kahan jaana hai aapko?" and these words in hindi made me feel really gud even if he called me aunty at that time.I told him my address and enquired about money etc. He nodded his head in "YES" and it gave me a feeling as if i won a jackpot.

Auto got started with a loud musical background effect (it was musical for me at that time).It was really a adventrous ride for me.I was little bit worried about time, but more busy about thinking tricks "how to defeat him, if something happen wrong to me".At that night,I passed lot of traffic lights(Why they made so much in bangalore), lot of speed breakers(even on Flyovers), etc. Weather was nice asusual and i felt glad when i saw some autos like mine having a girl.

I was enjoying the night view of bangalore city and then suddenly auto driver turned back to me and asked " Madam, left or right ?"and it was the worst question asked to me in my trip to home.
 I tried not to show my blank and puzzled face and i threw the same question over  to him with confidence and little bit arrogance "Aapko nhi pta kahan jaana hai, pehle kyun  nhi btaaya? " (angry expression). He become more puzzled than me and took left.I closed my eyes and start remembering all prayers i had learnt so far from my truly devoted grandpa,grandma,maa and other family members.

Then after some time, i saw a red building and it looked so beautiful to me that
I literally jumped from my seat and gave signal to auto driver towards right.
He also became cheerfull and happy(may be finally he will let me down to my place safely)
Finally my ride or night sight seeing ended up after 2.5 hours and i reached home.
I thanked to him and myself for not trying those stupid tricks over him.

On 11th Aug 2010, I got a mail regarding " Meter Jam on 12th August, Do come and participate" .
The mail came as a request to not use Autos on 12th august because of their opposing behaviour,
 But when i remember this incident,I feel thankful to that Auto driver who took effort at late night to help me out.
I don't want to let him down and make those girls (like me ) unsafe due to this " Meter Jam".
Thanks to him.

A Girl I met

Some people are very different in this world.They act very differently to their surroundings.They don't show their feelings, emotions and concerns to anybody or may be they are like that..who don't have any concern about others.
They will become a part of your life for some time, but they know the art to move on from your life.They  show their bold strong character from outside and its become difficult to figure out their soul from inside.

Few months back, I met a girl , who never show her emotions , concerns,feelings in front of anybody.She also has a small heart but you will never get to know what is there in it. She is princess of her own world,having her own rules,having her own people etc. She will not let u go inside of it easily.She will not care about you, your beliefs , your life until you are meant to her.She will sit beside you and you can't estimate the things going around her.

When i met this girl, I thought that after some time she will become like one of us but today i realized that
she is different, she was different and will stay different from others.
You have to spend more time with her to figure our her true image. She has become mystery for me now.
Yeah,she is teaching me a lot in an unusual way. Sometimes it hurts but i am learning day by day from her.
I was very sensitive before i met her but now i am finding new ways to explore myself, to control my emotions,to not let others disturb me, to stop this cruel world affecting me. Its true,I am becoming a stone hearted person.

For some cases, its good but for some its bad.
"Time resides unseen measures or situations for me.. so Lets see, what i get from this new change in me."
Wish me luck !!
