Life

One of my best friend got an accident today and I remembered of my accidents too. I am still thinking how devastated she will be right now. I wish I be near her to comfort her. She just started her life and then... But this is life. I am glad she is fine except some bruises. I have all my wishes for her. Remember sometimes life has some ups and downs. We can't have everything perfect. Whenever we feel life is smooth now, some kind of incident or event occurs which makes me think there is something more powerful exist on which you have no control. Don't think bad of you that you did an accident. Nobody tries to do accidents, it just happens. I know how it shatters you. with my first car accident, I had the feeling I think I am dead and please God let me live for my kids. I was happy when my friend visited me because I felt somebody worries for me. Second accident Sandra was with me and it provided me some moral support. I wish I be there for her. I love you and my hugs for you and when you get a new car, let me know. I know you will let me know :).

Sabina and kids

Sabina: Time for the food kiddos?
Saijleen: What's in the food?
Sabina: Spinach and rice
Saijleen and Jas: ugh
Sabina: You have to eat what is cooked. It is not necessary the nutritious has to be yummy.
Jas (saying innocently): Saijleen, it is good to swallow sometimes. Saves arguments with mummy.

Sabina and Saijleen

Satpreet (my husband) and me were arguing in the car one day and Anjum was here at that time sitting with the kids.
Sabina: Satpreet that is enough, one single word and I am gonna jump from the car.
Saijleen: Jump and go where, and burst in to lughter?
Sabina: It made me really think, was i gonna jump

Satpreet, Anjum, Saijleen and Jas all are laughing and Sabina arrrrrrrrrr.

Interaction

I was just talking to my son and he made me laugh, I just thought if I can record my kids dialogue, when they will grow up they will laugh at how funny kids are.

Sabina: Jas, what will you be when you grow up?
jas: I think I will be a doctor.
Sabina: Good, you have to study a lot.
Jas: Then I will be an astronaut.
Sabina: You have to do lot of hard work.
Jas: I think I will be a police Officer then.
Sabina: Really, that's good too, finish your college first.
Jas: wait mommy, I think I will be a bully, once I grow up, I think it won't be that hard.

Realization

I did not write that note, one of my friend sent me an email a few days back when I was too down and she was trying to cheer me up!!! I like her note and thought of publishing in my blog so that it should stay here forever!!!

"People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person.

When someone is in your life for a REASON. . . It is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are! They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part, or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered. And now it is time to move on.

Then people come into your life for a SEASON. Because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace, or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.


LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons: things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant."

I really like my friend's email for me but I just want my friends to stay in my life for the life time. I do not believe friendship can be seasonal or for a reason. Anyway I am not an expert in human relations but sometimes....

Creativity

One of my friend just made me think of very important subject "Creativity". I was just thinking the word famous came first or the Creativity. Most of the time those who are creative they become famous or those who become famous are described as more creative. I was thinking of J.K. Rowling, I completely agree that she is creative, but if her book did not get to be published, she would not be famous and her talent and creativity must not have known. Most of the artists or the people having creative arts usually get fame after their death. I think resources and luck plays very important part for your creativity. Every person is born with special talent but if supplied with resources it becomes reality. If you know you are very creative but that does not become public, you do not get recognition.
Walt Disney was once accused of the lack of imagination and creativity, but it was his hard work and his good luck (he got loan for the land), his dream came true and others people true that place is heaven. But what if he did not get land, no one has ever known he is creative.

Apple and Disney Pixar have shown creativity in their products but their strong marketing and advertising have played part in that. What if Apple would not have been able to create niche among teenagers and students, I do not think they would have worked very well. Then who would have known Steve Jobs. So according to me "creativity is a mixture of your inner ideas combined with your luck and resources and the efforts you can put to bring your inner ideas out".

Where did money go?

The market is down. People are getting laid off. Mass scale lay offs are going on. Everybody is looking at Mr. Obama as if he is an angel sent by God to fix drooping economy. But I wonder where did all the money go? People lose millions in Stock Market. House prices have gone down, of course it is the right time to buy a house if you want tax benefits. what happened first? companies started losing money, declaring billion of dollars loss on their annual income statements or the illegal accounting practices which are the by product of the greed of high officials in the company. I am not saying all the companies are having illegal accounting practices. The major examples are Enron, World Com, Tyco etc. I think from here the downfall started and people lose their hard earned money. In my point of view that money if would have been used in constructive way, we could have more cash flows outside. If the children's of CEO's and other high officilas use Public company's resources for their self purposes, it cost public. Now companies are doing cost cutting. In one company which i know even for a pen an employee have to sign an application. That was not the case. But where is money going, I am still thinking. Circuit City is closed. They could not provide value to the public and could not face the competition with the Best buy. A few years ago K-Mart was closed in Dallas beacuse people did not find any values in their products. I do not know when this era of recession go but I just know a lot of students who are under debt and do not have a hope for job. But I am still confused atleast the currency printed by the Federal Reserve bank should be at some where whether in the legal or illegal form.
