Love at first sight...

Who ever believed in that ??? May b I did till very early years of my life .. courtesy :Bollywood movies ;)...

recently at a shopping spree bought stuff that I fell in love with at the first sight ...a friend says "if you notice those are the ones that get you most of the compliments"... I say , " cos they are perfect for us "..
having said that I realise- how come it doesnt happen that way with the men we like !?!?!

I wonder .....

It seems like a foot wear from Inc.5 and a kurti from W cant say " no I wont go home with you " but unfortunately the ppl we meet can say so .....

hmmmmmm ... but even if they did say I will come with you we cud never be that sure ...

I feel , its easier to make up ur mind abt a dress than abt a man ... cos its easier to discard a dress..!!!

Revolutionary Road...


For those of you who did not follow OSCARS , this film was nominated in the best film category and some more categories...
I watched the movie last night and was shocked to find that how much i could relate to it .....

RR is not only the name of the street were the characters live but also the road they try to take to fill up the "hopeless emptiness" of life ....

Yes the HOPELESS EMPTINESS........

Thats wat life becomes , when we get disillusioned by the conformism of the society ... we grow up being told to want a good job and marriage and family .. and in the process of doing so we loose out on living life ... thats when life becomes empty ...and it takes a mental patient in this film to realise that this emptiness is hopeless... ppl live hoping to arrive in life and start living it ,,, while life passes you by and you reach your old age and realise that you still havent arrived and you are about to die..

We get into the comfort zone of our life , as we grow up and grow in our careers our lifestyle changes and it becomes more and more expensive. Suddenly there is a point when you realise that this is not what you want from life ... u dont wanna spend your life working 10 hrs a day and not really enjoying what you do...
but by then its too late ... you are trapped ..you are caged ... you want out but you dont have the guts for it ... you are too secured in the emptiness of your life to want to venture out .... but the spirit within you dies .... life just becomes a chore .....

The Revolutionary Road is about having the guts to get out of this confrming life and doing what you want to do ... but to do it you have to take the risk of failing and starting from the scratch ...which most of us are scared to do ...

Why i could relate to this !!! well , at the moment i do feel caged sometimes but the door of the cage is still not locked ... I try not to feel too secured with the job I have and the money that I earn .... dont get into credit , keep a inexpensive lifestyle , doesnt matter how many promotions I get ..... and always imagine the worst case scenario and say to myself ... thats not too bad :O)

However this movie potrays the fear that I have ... of getting stuck in a life that I dont want .... after all , you always know your own self .. and as far as I know myself .... I have the wanderlust;) ....
