it's funny
I am being a "good" mother these days - atleast I hear my folks saying that about me and I also feel I'm doing the right thing for Ashna most of the time - u know what I mean getting the satisfaction that a mom gets while bringing up her child. But I think that's my primary responsibility since the time she's born till the time she's on her own - so it's not an option might as well give it the best I can.
I'm also being a "good" wife - atleast that's what the husband tells me - hardly cribbing and being very reasonable - but c'mon he's just doing everything he possibly can so there's no point in me continuously asking for more.
And surprisingly enuf - I'm also being an almost "good" daughter-in-law, we hardly have any issues even though we live together and I continuosly hear praises about me sometimes direct and sometimes indirectly - but again i've got the most reasonable folks - what are small compromises compared to the wonderful support I get from them
What I wonder though is how did this happen - things surely weren't so good in all of the above. I had issues almost everywhere - what's this called then - have I grown old..:-( or is it what people say developed a mature outlook, or am i just being more reasonable with people around me. But whatever it is lord please continue to grant me the "sadbuddhi" that's helping me feel this way.

How did I forget how much I loved this ghazal. I heard it today after ages and it's yet one of the sweetest and my favourites. It's just magically beautiful!
I wonder if most people associate certain songs with people the way I do... everything moves on - but song for me are inert - and with a person.
Although I like every word of this one .. some of the better lines from it..
..bin piye bin pilaaye Khumaar aa gayaa
..vaqt kii raushanii me.n nahaa_ii hu_ii
zindagii pe ajab saa nikhaar aa gayaa
there are days when I think there's only one cute little face in this whole wide world! how crazy can one be and how selfish can a mother get sometimes :-)!

this made me smile today :-)
Money will buy a fine dog, but only kindness will make him wag his tail.
If you don't have a sense of humor, you probably don't have any sense at all.
Seat belts are not as confining as wheelchairs.
A good time to keep your mouth shut is when you're in deep water.
How come it takes so little time for a child who is afraid of the dark to become a teenager who wants to stay out all night?
Business conventions are important because they demonstrate how many people a company can operate without.
Why is it that at class reunions you feel younger than everyone else looks?
Scratch a dog and you'll find a permanent job.
No one has more driving ambition than the boy who wants to buy a car.
There are no new sins....the old ones just get more publicity.
There are worse things than getting a call for a wrong number at 4AM. It could be a right number. Think about this...,
No one ever says "It's only a game" when his team is winning.
I've reached the age where the happy hour is a nap.
Be careful reading the fine print. There's no way you're going to like it.
The trouble with bucket seats is that not everybody has the same size bucket.
Do you realize that in about 40 years, we'll have thousands of old ladies running around with tattoos?
Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comfortable to cry in a Corvette than in a Escort.
After a certain age, if you don't wake up aching in every joint, you are probably dead.

So we saw no entry yesterday night after mostly good reviews from friends except one guy who said he did not like it.. and I was more or less sure I will like it when I heard it's the funny kinds!
But I think the overall the movie was pathetic and instead of giving me a few hours of laughing, (which is all we look for in a movie these days specially when we watch it this late in the night) it's made me wonder where the world is heading these days.
Some jokes were good, the silly stuff and pj's was also cool - but they could have certainly kept it to a certain level of decency when it comes to clothes which are just getting shorter by the day and outrageously indecent. I also wonder what the kids that the multiplex was full of are learning from this shit. As it is most have their fashion sense influenced from bollywood.
I am actually a not-so conservative person - i'm quite open to a lot many things - but here we are marching towards doom! As a parent it is definitely scary about what's in store for our next generation!
