Read it with Rasheeda

  I miss the world. I miss the world I was born in. I miss the seas; I miss the airs; I miss the heat I was baked in. I miss the roads; I miss the rails; I miss the skies that I fly in. I miss the you; I miss the me; I miss the way I was human. I am now astray! I sit still and stay! I am being treated like a vermin. Let me go free. Let there be glee. For the earth's a tree.. That loves the growing spree.. And is as forgiving as a woman. ~By Your missing friend, Rasheeda Madani.

Assalamu Alaikum my dear reader friends, Here I am, after a long pause, back to infotain you with the buzzing nuances of life... Wish you had been with me on this roller coaster "space-travel" kinda ride that I'm going through right now... Haha.. I would say it's been one hell of a ride... yes, it was exhilarating, thrilling and thoughtful! The joggers' lane at our housing society Presently I'm in Chennai . I live in a society, where lifestyle is booming with speed, valour, friendship, and a serendipity of mixed emotions. I had to go through a very long process of preparation mentally and physically to pull myself into Chennai's sizzling chromosphere!  Well, as usual I take my long evening walks inside our housing society, where I presume I have a lot of space for myself to be "me". I quietly love the experience!! Of peekabooing through the canopies and listening to the endless arpeggios of the Cuckoo.. Additionally, what enhances my s...

Assalamu Alaikum.. Hello my dear friends, I'm sharing with you my take on the book "How to Stop Worrying and Start Living" by Dale Carnegie . It is a brief nostalgia of my adventure with this non-fiction treatise. The title itself speaks of its honesty within its pages. Shortly, the book behaves like a memorandum of its owner's confessions. It contains a multitude of anecdotes, methods and protocols for helping us comprehend and tackle our worries in the best way possible. At the end of every chapter, we are provided with a set of simple questions for self-analysis, which helps us evaluate our own perceptions in handling our daily daymares. It's still funny, when every time I turn its pages to see my handwritten notes on petty problems faced during my college days. It's interesting and reaffirming, that my confidence and happiness has grown with every level of life's challenges. The book has made me become a better human and will continue to be… For in...

Dear friends … let me share with you the experience of reading one of my most favorite books, which I keep handy, to open up anywhere anytime to get relaxation.. every person comes to a point where he staggers in the crossroads of life. He's left to decide whether to go right or left, and whether to go back or move ahead.. such crossroads leave man in an intense search for truth and identity.He goes to all kind of spiritual and religious books ever written, in search for an answer.. One such book that can transform a person from being null to a person of eminence is, Mahatria Ra’s “Unposted Letter” . The book is a mélange of spirituality and modernity. Mahatria Ra combines the simplicity of everyday living with the grandeur of Godliness. Every man who reads the book is promised by Ra right in the beginning as, “Open any page. An answer is seeking the seeker.” Ra helps one to trace the most and more out of every strand in human life. He raises concerns on ar...
