Its Not The Way U Think...

If you see me walking the road with someone else

Its not because I like his company
Its because you ' re not brave enough to walk beside me.

If you hear me talking about him all the time
Its not because he pleases me
Its because you ' re too deaf to hear my heartbeat

If you feel me falling with someone new
Its not because I love him
Because you ' re not there to catch me fall

If you feel lost, I too am nowhere
I too don ' t know where the road is going
Are we gonna cross each other ' s path

Or just completely turn around?
Will we just let go of what we had
Or go to the place where love is bound

Don ' t let me walk with him
Its you I want to walk with

Don ' t let me talk of him
It ' s you I want to talk with

Don ' t let me fall for him
It ' s you I want to fall in love with.



THE ANSWER

When you thought I wasn ' t brave enough to walk beside you
I was behind you every step of the way
Still filled with awe because of the beauty that stands before me

When you thought I was too deaf to hear your heartbeat
I didn ' t want to assume anything
And I was afraid to lose our friendship

When you thought I wasn ' t there to catch you
It was because you never gave me the chance
You never reached the bottom, you ' ve already grabbed a branch

If you feel like you are nowhere, I too am lost
I too don ' t know where the road is going
Are we just going to turn around,

Or are we gonna cross each other ' s path?
Will we just let go of what we had
Or go to the place where love is bound?

Don ' t let me walk alone
I want to walk by your side

Don ' t let me talk of something else
It ' s you I want to talk with

Don ' t let me fall for someone else
It ' s you I want to fall in love with.

 

Nicholas Sparks

I read a novel by Nicholas Sparks-Nights in Roadanthe.If you are romantic types who like lovely romantic stories with not happily ever after ending then u wil love his work.If u have a sensitive heart u may cry at occasions.His other works are A bend in the road,The rescue,A walk to remember,Message in a bottle and The Notebook.
This novel says love is possible at any age,any time,any whr n wen u least expct.What really struck me was the fact that love is actually sharing n u dont have to be physical present for love to exist.It is always said love me d way i m I wont change nt physically nor my thinking bt truly love changes u.U bcome a totally diff person wen u strt caring abt someone soooooooooo much. Actually u start seeing things from a different perspective.
I have seen d movie A walk to remembr,its very beautiful love story actors r no good bt story is gr8,would love to read d book also.N would love to have someone fulfil al my wishes even if d reason is coz i wil die soon.

Patty Smith and Don Henley - Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough

I don't wanna lose you, 
I don't wanna use you 
Just to have somebody by my side 

And I don't wanna hate you 
I don't wanna take you 
But I don't wanna be the one to cry 

That don't really matter to anyone, anymore 
But like a fool I keep losing my place 
And I keep seeing you walk through that door 
But there's a danger in loving somebody too much 

And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust 
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are 
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough 

Now I could never change you 
I don't wanna blame you 
Baby you don't have to take the fall 

Yes I may have hurt you 
But I did not desert you 
Maybe I just wanna have it all 

It makes a sound like thunder 
It makes me feel like rain 
And like a fool who will never see the truth 
I keep thinking something's gonna change 

And there's no way home 
When it's late at night and you're all alone 

Are there things that you wanted to say 
Do you feel me beside you in your bed 
There beside you where I used to lay 

And there's a danger in loving somebody too much 
And it's sad when you know it's your heart they can't touch. 

There's a reason why people don't stay who they are 
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough 
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough

Aqualung - Easier To Lie

To bear the weight and push into the sky
   it's easier to lie, easier to lie
and honestly, to look you in the eye
   it's easier to lie, easier to lie

To be the one, to be the only one
   someone has to give a lot,something has to give a lot
and who am i to give you what you need
   when i'm leaning, just learning,learning how to live and to bear the weight

To fill the space, the space you made for me
   try to be the one you want,try to be the way you want
and maybe i could be the one you need
   if you'd only show me,show me how to live and to bear the weight

And push into the sky
  it's easier to lie, easier to lie
and do what's right when everything is wrong
  it's easier to run it's easier to
never have to look you in the eye
  it's easier to lie, easier to lie

To bear the weight and push into the sky
   it's easier to lie

Gone wid d wind

I m countinuously reading novel since my project sem strtd n nw my col is over.I collected so many titles,bought few of those thanks to landmark odessy,few I got frm frnds n some just read ebooks.I m at d last one of my list 'Gone wid d wind-by Margaret Mitchell'(I knw soon i wil have many more on d list).After hp wich was so facinating coz it was fatasy land,dis is d nvl wich has really made me stick to it to d end-captivating.Its abt a girl who is very strong willed n faces american civil war n its consequences.How she faces other chracters n situations is just awesome.Other characters r al typical types one way i classified them as-firstly those who live life according to wat others wil think secondly those who have their own thinking bt never do somethng tat can arouse gossip n thirdly those who r least bothered n as a result dey r isolated n zealed n most talkd abt.I wont say heroine of d nvl being d third kind n selfish is bad she hardened herself with watever she went thru plus d fact she learned sometimes frm her own mistakes tat is nt wrong n she acts on her impulse tats very common in girls.She made so many wrong n mean decisions to make her n her folks life good tats allowed.Only thing why people dont actually like her is because she does not behave ladylike n be a fool so men can protect her.I knw its a fictional character no1 like her exist bt I think I knw ppl with will as strong as hers r alive......

'pata nai col ke paanch saal kahan chale gaye......phone pe'-tru so tru i totally agree wid that

'u can take a rathore out of ranjhor bt u cant take ranjhor out of rathore'-i loved nashruddin shah

'woh tumhara beta hai na....nai woh mere pati ka beta hai'-d bst dialogue of al....

tere mujhse hai pehle se nata koi
yun hi nai dil lubhata koi
jane tu ya jane na
mane tu ya mane na

my song for love of my life is
jab koi bat bigad jaye
jab koi muskil pad jaye
tum dena saath mera
oh humnawaz....

Abt the film light healthy romantic comedy.Go wid ur friends u wil enjoy it.
I stil dont knw who is pappu bt i really like d song'pappu cant dance' actually al songs r awesome.

Last movie i liked was 'Bomarillu' two strange things associated with it are-firstly its a telugu movi secondly its genelia's n sidhart's mvi.N before tha it was '7 G Rainbow colony' that was a tamil mvi.I had made a notion al sweet english movies i have seen long back n hindi movies r never gonna b that interesting again.Oh al tat sentimental crap tragic love story or tragic career story or childrn-parent drama or siblings drama old fashioned.Actually even d story of this movie is old two frnds never realize dey were in love n later they do but its potrayed in very youthful fashion.Theres no rona dhona not even for a sec,u keep laughin n no cheap comedy acutualli innovative comedy n d actors r so energtic,new to screen so not sharukh perfect shots but dey look really cute.Apne type ki movie hai toh sabko pasand ani hi hai.The other generation may comment 'not much spend on d movie' 'no seriousness' n al bt u cant say its nt worth watching.Y do chetan bhagat nvl have so much popularity its becoz it so near to our lives(some part of d nvl) similar is d case here.....u just dont know when its love!!!

Finally safe at home.....

Yup i m back from my tour.Great escape warna toh phas hi jana tha-d crowd d tourists d agent ppl d wheathr d baba ram rahim case
Chattisgarh express is super fast for name sake it stops at so many stations its a replica of GT.Anyways we reachd Amritsar got dressed n went to Golden temple.I have been thr before but its d temple n we keep our tradition.Its beautiful n magnificent.It was poornima so was littl crowded,the lake was also crowded with fishes.I had never seen a goldfish so big before actually i have seen them in aquariums only.It was hot n humid so we slept al evening until it was time to go to station.I had greatest parathas thr-tandori paratha,ohhh they were so tasty with al butter,mouth watering stuff.Then we took our midnight train to Jammu.As its only 4 hrs journey ppl travel without reservation but the strangest was dis guy,he was sitting on someone else's reserved seat not indented to move at al.He didnt move d whole journey slept thr itself n as he was drunk kashmiri d owner or d TT didnt argue wid him.We reached jammu took d bus to katra n guess wat it strtd raining hard.In tat rain findin a hotel was so difficult it took us loads to time to find a decent hotel.By decent i mean worth stayin otherwise thr were rooms stinking bad.Luckily rain stopped we al dressed up had dosas n strtd climbing for vasno devi.For my own wishes i decided to climb bare foot.Thr was security check post al way up,it is supposed to b terrorist attck zone.My parents decided to go half way on horse back n me n my bro took steps.He was fast n if i was not thr he would have finished climbing in abt 3 hrs bt i hold him back n we reached up in 5 hrs.My parents had reached littl early n my mom was al tensed as we hadnt been thr.we were on foot al way plus u cant get lost when u r two,both engineers capabl of living alone.Anyways it was time for evenin arti 6-8 pm so we hurried our durshan.Then while goin down my bro went ahead alone n i tagged along wid my parents slowly.Trust me by d end my legs were shakin very badly whatever u eat or drink nothing was giving energy plus my foot-soles were aching badly.My wish bettr comes tru coz that pain was painful.Autowalas at d bottom were such rude ppl they were nt ready to take ppl to the hotels-thr monopoly.Finally they took no less than 5 ppl with 10 per person rate for a 20 Rs ride.Plus d road was to climb up,d auto engine was nt abl to take load but they were pushing it-idiots.What could ppl do after walkin al d way up n then down abt 14*2 km you cant think of walkin more.Guess wat happened wid my bro,he fel in d path n got bruised plus wen he askd for d auto d driver said i wont take you alone n as thr was no one else he walked al d way to d hotel.Then we reached d hotel thr was no food,my father went down again to another restaurent to get dinner.Finally we al took hot
water bath applied loads of iodex n slept.
Next was Kashmir-my father went to travel agents,searched many n then decided with one who provided d van for whole trip to jammu station d driver d hotel n d houseboat.First mistake my father believed d brochures that agent showed n gave him half d sum for confirmation.We strtd around noon from katra n so we did second mistake n got al traffic in d way.You shld strt early morning for jammu srinagar highway to be jam free.Next as my fathers nature he tried to be
friendly wid driver,our third mistake so driver did as he wished to stop ne whr,eat ne whr just as he wanted we rchd srinagar n then to our hotel at 12 at night n d rooms were nighmares.My mom shouted n al bt we had no option it was late we had to crash in al day car journey n leg pain had made us very tired.The manager was like we wil get u d bst room tomm,i had no info abt u coming n al reasons.Next day we had to strt for gulmarg we couldnt be late or again wil face jam-lots of tourists.We strtd arnd 8 n were thr by 10.Al d way that driver had his face with awful expression cause we didnt do according to him.Gulmarg is a beautiful place nice scenes n wheathr.We walkd arnd for a while then took d gondola thingi its like a trolley,u have 2 choice to rch on d mountains- take horse or gondola.I prefer gondola i feel it more safe n quicker plus u need to be very good at bargain with horse walas.Thr are two points thru gondola,u get ticket frm bottom for first point n frm that first pt u get tckt for d nxt higher point, the othr point is d mountain top n al in snow.Thrs less oxygen at such high altitude n while u get tckt u need to fil a form sayin u r responsibl if something happens up thr.I wantd to go anyhow but only my mom agreed n finally wen we got in d line it was late enough thr r time limits.So frm first gondola point we took horses to d lowest snow point,it was fun horses r nt so dangerous.We enjoyed a lot in snow sledgin n playin,thr was even this fall made of meltin ice it was so cold n so pure it was fantastic.By d time we strtd gettin bac to our car it was 3 pm n cold breeze strtd.It was so cold that my teeth strtd chatterin n finally wen we rchd hotel al d exposed portion of my skin d neck d nose d cheecks became red.There was dis lady wen we al lined up in gondola she gave 20 bucks 2 d official thr to jump up to d strtin point al were like corruption!should take pic n send in ajtak n al toh her reply is 'corruption se kiska kya ghiss gaya' so do u really think corruption can really dec in India ever??
We rchd our hotel d new room is spacious bt nt wat in brochure n my parents were so impressed by d way that manager talkd tat dey let it be.Thr was lot of jam on sonmarg path cause of amarnath yatri n al security so it was canceled frm our list.Next day we enjoyed srinagar.Dal lake in shikara as even our house boat was eliminated indicatin u use lake water n so its al dirty so bttr stay in hotel n see d house boats frm outside.Anyways shikara is nice experience al ppl sellin things in shikaras,floating garden-its actually kept on place with wooden logs,we took photos in kashmiri outfits.The lake is arnd 40 cm deep n in winter season its abt 15cm ice its like ppl can walk on it.The thing u find in kashmir is thr are no beggars each n every one is sellin something n earnin i respect that.Thr r millions of std pco our sims have no network access thr
na.hahaha.Next we went to shankara charya again climbed some 300 stairs great for my leg,we saw chasme shahi-its a mughal thingi whr always pure ice cold water comes n no one knows frm whr luckily its nt studied otherwise it would have been destroyed like in Taj mahal we also saw two mughal gardens nishad n shalimar beautiful gardens very different flowers i have nt seen so colorful garden before it was awesome a photographers treat.
Next morning we had to leave for pehal gaon n stay thr for one nite.In d morning my parents askd for tea n it was nt delivered,as d geyser was nt workin we even askd for hot water but it was nt delivered but we had to leave early to avoid jam so we got ready n my father went to settle scores wid manager.He was such a bad guy he strtd arguyin n shoutin he wantd al d rest amt tat my fathr was nt ready for he was ready to give him his 3000 bucks for 3 days rent but nt al.In d end my fathr didnt give in n in a very bad mood we left srinagar.Pehal gaon d hotel was awful even awful is nt d word my classrom was bigger than that room for 4.But we had no choice we serachd for new hotel but expct one 3 star one whose rent was 3000 for a day no othr place was vacant,al filled wid amarnath yatra ppl it strts frm pehal gaon na.We had to settl thr.Thr were no fans in ne room that place is so cold n windy u need two blankets even without fan.Thr r two places to visit thr one toh chandan wadi was blocked cause that amarnath yatra strtin point other was dis beautiful gardent that was awesome,meltin ice has made dis river thr wich is definitely good for raftin bt raftin was nt on that time.We slept early that day.Finally nxt morning we left for jammu station.In d path we visited patni top thats a beautiful picnic spot.We were so eager to leave we didnt waste much time.Done wid road trip its really nauseating plus al round n round mountain roads r nt at al good.And ppl thr r so ready to fool tourists n they r so rude,it can spoil al ur vacation.We were glad we rchd station in time to get a train for jalandar,no one actually wanted to take bus journey.We reached jalandar arnd 10.30 pm n took dis beautiful hotel as we had our train nxt day.This was a three star hotel but strangely its rent was only 1300 for a day n it was so beautiful d ppl were so pleasing,finally a place were we slept icely.Next day as in news that baba ram rahim case trains were stopped,tracks blocked n al.Al day we roamed n rchd station at 5 our trn was scheduled at 6.30.Funny was the fact that this train was supposed to strt frm amritsar bt in d mornin it was stopped at jalandar only n in d evenin it was to strt frm here only lucky we.Then it was al chaos-wil it strt or wil it nt.It was standing on platform 1 since morning n no trn had left jalandar since then bt finally arnd 11 at nite d train
strtd n we relaxed nw wil rch home.Nxt day in newspaper we read that jammu srinagar route is closed cause of wheathr n also so thr were shots in pehalgaon n innocent ppl died.Lucky escape
