Celeb teachings!

 When I was first told that you can learn from all and sundry, I was quite sceptical, specially the sundry part; but now after joining the banking industry I have learnt that sundry is a very important account, specially when it comes to banking and more importantly the life.

So I took upon a list of things that one can learn from people:

1. SRK: One can learn, how not to talk about subjects which you are not really well versed with; don’t believe me, look at him, he is in far lesser controversies than before.

2. Nirmal Baba: People will listen to any crap advice, and will follow them, if you charge them 10% of their salary.

3. Paris Hilton: If you have the looks, no matter what you do, you will be missed, so do spend some extra time in gym & some money on the looks, + look good on whatever you are doing, you might be facing camera, who knows!

4. Abishekh Manu Singhvi: Pay & treat your driver(key men) well, they wont have any reason to put your dirty laundry to dry in public.

5. Barak Obama: Get what you could till you can, you may not get a second term. That Nobel prize is quite a thing you know.

6. Shahid Kapoor: Break up can be a blessing in disguise. Don’t hide in your room, meet new people.

7. Saif Ali Khan: Hook up may not always be a blessing.

8. Bejan Daruwala: Well, I was told 7 is lucky for me, so I am stopping here. Hope you gain something too!

9. Shashi Tharoor: Don't comment on something, using phrases which do not match up with local sensibilities, you might have to give up your elite position and join the cattle club. 

10. N D Tiwari: You are as young as you make your body feel. 

Just wind; river and moon!

In a small town;

in the country side;

after dark;

after sleep has taken its toll;

In the silence of the night;

by the dark window;

sits a young widow;

with a twinkle in her eye;

calling out to the stars;

with her soothing smile;

looking up to the sky;

as her hair;

take to the air;

a serene beauty;

she does not object;

she does not

run a finger through them;

she closes her eyes;

lets the gentle wind;

feels the breeze;

livening up her smile.

I seat in shadow;

of a tree;

bewitched;

fixed in my gaze;

she served me all morning;

and never did I

see the person;

behind those rough hands;

rough by her karma;

the mundane house work;

fourteen hours behind curtains;

the unbreakable prison;

the invisible chains;

the prison of clothes;

the chains of traditions;

slave by day;

night is hers;

freedom she seeks;

freedom to feel;

just nature;

no lust;

no love;

just wind, river and moon!

that’s all;

what made her smile;

her smile!

Dancing in moon light;

singing all alone

to herself;

till the crack of dawn;

she smiled away;

and then

the prison;

the chains;

recaptured her;

resting her spirit;

she went on working;

working all the day;

serving;

not uttering a word;

that sweet voice;

was lost by day;

I

nor the hero;

neither the villain;

but a mere spectator;

each night;

each day;

and the days to come

and nights to come……..

Just wind; river and moon!
