16 Saal Baad

The title of the blog seems like a B grade bollywood movie,  or a perfect example of my bad sense of humor. 16 years have passed since I last blogged, and I dont remember why I stopped. The stories of the 16 years are definitely Oscar nomination grade, bollywood can really make a few hit movies taking chapters out of these years. I just need to think about the actors who will play key roles.

I was reminded of my Blog by Div who pinged me and persuaded me to connect again.  While I will talk about that in a separate blog, I had lost the link to my blog and she graciously shared it with me. I made a promise to Div that I will try to restart the blog, If only I could remember how to as I don't remember the email id used to create it.

So as a Jugad, I created a new Id, and here is the link to all the posts that I had made in the past. Raj's Page (jrajsekhar.blogspot.com)

Silent Love...

The only thing I have in my control and can give is love and the only thing I want is love. I want to continue to love you and think of you every minute of my life until my last breath. You have become an integral part of me and will stay in my heart and mind forever.  I don't want to make any attempt to restrict my thoughts or divert my mind. I feel at peace loving you and giving myself to you. I am very thankful and grateful for your presence in my life wherever you are.  I also know you can never find anyone else who loves you like I do. Whether you choose to be at the receiving end or not is your choice. Too bad if you choose not to for whatever reason, you are definitely going to be missing out on this once in a lifetime opportunity for this life! I hope whatever you choose is worth the sacrifice of my love. Songs on the playlist and the blog will speak to me in your absence.  My hope to be with you will never die! Remember that however long it may take ...

Coaches Gyan - Want, Can, Do

Image
This morning, in yet another never-ending deep life talk, Sweety was trying to recruit me as her personal life coach. Spoiler alert: I wasn’t applying. We meandered through the usual playlist — dreams, goals, confusion, career, soul-searching — you know, the kind of existential crisis playlist that hits you twice daily:  One at 9 AM thinking about what work to do and One at 10:30 PM when Wi-Fi is strong and self-doubt is stronger. Somewhere in that intellectual dhobi ghat of thoughts, I had a brain ka bulb-on moment : "Understanding the difference between what you want to do, what you can do, and what you actually do… is the secret to shanti (inner peace)." Naturally, Sweety didn’t react. Lost in her world of ChatGPT searches like: “What should i write in my team members appraisals?” So I repeated it — in my best coach voice. This time, she paused. The gears started turning (finally). After a rare moment of stunned silence, she got it. I told her to write it down. She said, “...

Life of my Dreams!

Beaches are my most favorite. Watching sunrises, sunsets, listening to the gushing waves, walking barefoot on the soft sand, watching birds fly over gives me immense calmness and satisfaction. I could spend   days at end just being there! A small house with open floor plan, floor to ceiling windows, with plenty of air and sunlight, with some trees and plants outdoor and indoors overlooking the beach as my abode. An art room with inspiring views of sun, sand and water with all the art supplies that trigger creativity.   A small kitchen garden with herbs and veggies, a kitchen with basic amenities to whip up some soulful wholesome meals. A curated collection of books and soulful music that inspire positive thoughts and aid in the journey of finding peace and joy.     This is the life I dream of… Will I have a strong will to be all by myself living this dream?  Will I long for a companion who is willing to walk hand in hand on the sandy shores and share my dreams? ...
