Age no bar
Many a times I used to wonder why some girls go for guys much younger to them or some guys prefer ladies much elder to them (even though both the cases are same i.e girl is elder than a guy, there are two different views; A guy' and a girl')instead of the much followed convention (both the partners around the same age or the guy slightly elder than the girl). I was poked by this question soon after I heard the news of the much hyped abhishek-ash engagement. It's not the first time I was bugged by this question, but then I would convince myself saying they are mere exceptions. But later when I dug into the matter I came across some stunning facts which actually changed my perceptions towards 'Age no bar' marriages. Let me clear myself here, this is not a guide to teach any tricks about charming a girl regardless of the age or nothing like that. This is an attempt to analyze some of the unconventionalities in the age difference of a couple. Whatever I am writing below is purely my point of view aided by a bit of research. Many might not agree with me, many might think I am biased, many might despise the topic itself regardless of the content but I am just expressing some of the many points.
First things first, this is no 19th or 20th century, there is seldom a huge difference in age of the couple. Young couple here have the tendency to choose partners of almost their age and it's a trend already. Even then there are cases where there is a huge difference in the ages of the couple. There cannot be many girls who are below 25-25 and prefers younger guys. An individual's perception about his/her partner varies at different phases, for instance an individual at his/her teen is more likely to be attracted to an elder guy/girl but its unlikely that they get married at that age. A guy/girl at that junction of life feels that the opposite sex of their age looks like a poor imitation of elder guy/girl. Once the teenage is passed, its a different story altogether. Here again the perception about the partner takes a kick on the butt. This is the age when a fairer sex lays the stepping stone for the rather unconventional marriages. There are two major reasons why a girl might prefer a much elder partner, its either because the girl is carrier oriented or she feels she is secure with an elder guy who is well settled than a guy of her age who is still struggling to find an identity for him in the society. The next phase is for the ladies who are well settled and have made their mark in the society; yes I am talking about the celebrities. Being a celebrity no female creature marries before 30, being self stable they would never have to worry about the security or the future and that gives them the edge to go for guys much younger to them.
As far as the guys are concerned the prime reason that drives them in choosing a older partner is emotional support. They think the partner who has seen more winters can stand by them in thick and thins, can advise in any crisis situations, most of the qualities which a younger partner lacks. There are several other reasons which makes a guy prefer an elder partner, but they are not relevant here.
As far as my knowledge is stretched girls usually mature much earlier than boys mentally. A girl of 18 thinks in the lines of a boy of 20 but it all gets balanced once they both cross 25. The reason why I did not mention the other possibility of age difference (guy elder than girl by more than 10 years) is because it was not a rarity before.
Finally it all comes down to the age of an individual at the time when he/she decides to marry. There are several factors which forces an individual to follow the convention like Family, Society, the environment he/she was brought up, level of Education, etc but again the same factors can force the individual to break the convention and choose the best for him/her. The greatest revelation for me was age doesn't matter as long as the couple are happy and have mutual respect for each other.
Girl dating a Guy younger to her... BIG DEAL!!!

For the love of the game
A billion people to cheer, a billion to pray, a billion to scream, nowhere can one find such craze but in India. It's not just a game for us, its a religion. People here think cricket, eat cricket, breath cricket; it's an emotional part of most people's life. There is very little percentage of people not affected by cricket here; be it an one year old or an eighty years old. Maybe its a bit too much but lets face it. When the team loses, there are thousands of owes made about not watching cricket there after but none kept. Its a country where the players are treated like gods on their day and the same gods effigies are thrust into the fire or their houses stoned the next morning. Never in the past people here have succeeded in getting rid of the crickets grasp and it seems never in the future will be able to do it either. In simple terms "playing for India can make a player a national hero overnight or a villain faster than that" and by the time I was writing this there were no such heroes left and a thousands of owes made about not watching cricket anymore.

9 Controversial Banned Books
1. The Satanic Verses – Salman Rushdie
“The book that is worth killing people and burning flags for is not the book that I wrote.” Salman Rushdie, Time Magazine , shortly after the publication of The Satanic Verses in 1988.
Banned in most Muslim countries as also in India, the book was called a work of blasphemy by Iran’s Ayatollah Khomeina who issued a fatwa against Rushdie for “insulting Islam, the prophet Muhammed and the holy Koran.”
As Rushdie saw it, his book “isn’t actually about Islam but about migration, metamorphosis, divided selves, love, death, London and Bombay,” he told Time.
2. The Da Vinci Code – Dan Brown
Jesus wasn’t divine; he married Mary Magdalene, a woman of possible ill repute, and they had kids. The Vatican appealed to all Christiians to shun the book. The bestseller, which is now being made into a movie starring Tom Hanks, is a breathless thriller with madcap chases through the Louvre, code-crunching and sinister intrigue in Rome (particularly the Vatican).
3. Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia- Jean Sasson
A true expose of life in a conservative, Muslim society, Princess is the ghost-written story of the life of a royal princess of the ruling Saud dynasty of Saudi Arabia. The book created a furore in the Muslim world and was banned in the Gulf countries. Some deeply disturbing accounts narrated in the novel: teenage girls forced to marry doddering old men; young women killed by drowning, stoning or starved in a padded, windowless cell for sexual misconduct, or worse for having got pregnant after being raped.
4. Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
Although it was published in Paris, it was soon (1956) to be banned there for being obscene. John Gordon, editor of the popular Sunday Express, had called it “the filthiest book I have ever read” and “sheer unrestrained pornography.”
Lolita is the sad story of Humpbert Humpbert, a middle-aged European’s obsession with a 12-year-old American girl. The mother’s accidental death proves the catalyst for the unlikely pair of lovers to set off on a cross-country trip where Humpbert indulges his most secret fantasies. The book details the relationship, ever-changing, always taboo, between Humpbert and Lolita, a relationship that, by its very nature, seems doomed to ultimate failure.
5. The Bluest Eye – Toni Morrison
Eleven-year-old black girl Pecola Breedlove prays for blue eyes, “each night without fail” believing her ugly reality will be made beautiful through them. She years to be beautiful so that people will look at her. Instead she is spat upon, ridiculed, and ultimately raped and impregnated by her own father. This novel by the Pulitzer prize-winning author was pulled from a high school in Alaska in 1994 and cited for being too “controversial.” The novel was both challenged and banned in Pennsylvania in 1994, and faced challenges in both Florida and Massachusetts due to the book’s sexual content.
6. Madame Bovary – Gustave Flaubert
In 1856, after publishing Madame Bovary, Flaubert and the editors of the Revue de Paris were put on trial because Madame Bovary was considered to be morally offensive. Madame Bovary is the story of Emma Bovary, an unhappily married woman who seeks escape through forbidden relationships with other men. Ultimately, Madame Bovary’s indiscretions and her obsession with Romance lead to her downfall.
7. Lady Chatterley’s Lover – D H Lawrence
The publication of the book caused a scandal due to its explicit sex scenes, including previously banned four-letter words, and perhaps particularly because the male lover was working-class. The story concerns a young married woman whose upper-class husband has been paralysed and rendered impotent. Her sexual frustration leads her into an affair with the gamekeeper, Mellors, eventually culminating in their marriage. .
8. Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger
This novel depicting a teenager’s nervous breakdown has been repeatedly banned and challenged for reasons such as “profanity,” “sexual references,” and the charge that it “undermines morality.” As recently as 1983, “the book’s contents” were cited as justification to ban the book. The book chronicles Holden Caulfield’s journey from innocence to experience and is the quintessential coming-of-age novel—though it’s an unusual one, in which the hero tries to cling to the simplicity of childhood, achieving a kind of maturity almost in spite of himself.
9. Little Red Riding Hood
This could feature in Ripley’s Believe it or not! This classic fairy tale, a favourite with children through generations, was banned by two California school districts in 1989. THey found it very disturbing that a little girl should be carrying wine for her grandmother (in one version she is carrying wine and cake for her ailing granny.

Gandhigiri
I strongly believe there are two natures or rather I would put it as personalities for an individual, Good and Bad; both which are driven on the basis of the inner instinct which in turn is developed based on the environment we were brought up. We were born with blank minds. And then we learn, inject information constantly. We are what we learn. We sure know what is good and what is bad but do we really care to follow good? I seldom see people helping anybody who has met an accident, I seldom see people making way for an Ambulance or a Fire Engine, I seldom see people putting a waste in the dustbin. I might be exaggerating the above a bit more or maybe I am expecting a bit too much but even then it doesn't go off the track and it's a hard fact. I want to bring out the good in me, I want it to take control over the bad within. I will certainly notice the changes in me when it happens. I would never ride the Bike on the Footpath, I would never blow the Horn when struck in traffic, I would never enter a Queue in between, I would never sit while the old people are standing in the Bus, I would never travel without a Ticket, I would never break a Promise once given. I am not in the illusion of changing the world but yes I want to be the change I would like to see around me.

Atheist
Jesus hasn't had a chance of watching a soccer match until he went on to witness one. It was a match between Roman Catholics and Protestants. Jesus found a place which gave him a nice and full view of the stadium and made himself comfortable. Match started and the crowd went berserk, Roman Catholics scored the first goal after breaking into the opposition defense. Jesus removed his Hat and threw it in air to join with Roman Catholics in celebration. After a while Protestants scored a goal to level the score. Again Jesus removed his Hat and threw it in air to join with Protestants in celebration. Two of the Roman catholics sitting beside Jesus were taken by surprise, they asked him which team he is supporting to which Jesus answered "I am not supporting any team but simply enjoying the game". One of the two Roman Catholics stared at him for a while and said to the other "He is an Atheist".

Skill Kills
Many have this habit or rather skill of analyzing anything and everything. They read too much into words and builds a sequence of situations without having a clue of getting trapped in it. I wonder where does the so called skill is developed from. I have a friend who was quite like this, he used to read too much into matters and never used to get out of them untroubled. Why can't they accept matters practically rather than digging into it, why can't they see the world in a relaxed way rather than appraising it from top to bottom. Oh come on, There is so much to see and so much to hear and we have a life time to THINK and ANALYZE. I know "Idle brain is worth nothing", but thinking too much is injurious to health.

Time & Space
Every relationship needs to be polished after certain time or else there is always a threat of taking one another for granted which in a way is not healthy and marks the beginning of the end for the relationship. It can be friends, can be couples, can be brother and sister, can be anybody, as long as the expectations are healthy, the relationship is fine. By healthy I mean, not demanding and it can be any kind for that matter. Once the expectations are converted into demands, the other person starts to feel suffocated and that's boy is the perfect time for refining the relationship. It beats me whenever I see ppl struggling in hell lot of ways to keep their broken relationships when it only takes 2 ingredients TIME & SPACE. Provide the room/space for the person which he/she truly deserves and respect it and be thankful for the same, respect his/her opinions. Give some time for the old wounds to heal, it's not easy for everyone to regroup overnight and come back, it takes some time before he/she can be normal just like before but believe me he/she vll be a better person than before and they EXPECT the same from you which is by all means healthy. Remember it's never too late.

Yippeeeeeeeeee!!!!
There are certain matters which keeps priority all to themselves and overthrow the other matters out of the mind however critical they are. It's one of those days when i perfectly knew well what i wanted to blog. But before that I thought I would check this URL just like a routine event, there was a delay in loading, cursing the network traffic and the sysadmins, I waited for the page impatiently, just at the nick of time when i was about to close the window, it opened with the headline which was totally unexpected and nowhere in my mind at that instant. As if all my hormone glands started working in a hurry I was on my toes, ready to pump the air with my fist, i felt glad to have opened that site, it made my day. The headline read "Harry Potter Book 7 to be published on 21st July 2007".
PS: I know that the last line might make u to look for me with a pistol but sorry, it's my blog i have a right to write anything i feel like ;-)

MESS-enger
I am sure many ppl suffer from this guilt. Don't know why I feel very comfortable to speak over messenger rather on face. It's not somebody else, it's my own friends, my own cousins, I know speaking face to face always adds that vital value to the matter but even then I prefer sharing certain things over messenger. I know there is something wrong whenever I do that, a missing connection, a crack in the chain of trust. I curse myself for doing it, I am gr8 at shedding my opinions whenever it's over messenger, but when it comes to face to face I have always held myself back. May be I fear that it might all look artificial, or too formal, May be I am being very indecisive. Hope I will be up against this soon before its too late.
Miscon(per)ceptions
One of my friends often keeps teasing me, she says "my thoughts seldom revolve around matters other than girls and marriage". This is not true, I try something and i end up doing something else. This is what happens when you are not clear about matters you are talking or if you don't know how to convey your views properly. You will have to agree with me that one cannot spit out his mind on certain matters to everybody else. It takes some comfort level with someone to speak certain matters. By this doesn't mean that my thoughts always spin around girls and marriage. It's just that i feel comfortable speaking those matters with her and incidentally whenever i speak to her, may be i emphasize more on that topic which might have lead her to conclude with this perception. Even now i am not sure i have spoken everything which i intended to. It's very hard to create a new image for me in her eyes, but nevertheless i am least bothered, after all it's my life.

What the Heck!!!!
What's wrong with these news channels/Sites? Is Abhishek's wedding dress a cause of news? who cares if he wears anything at all. The sad part is whichever news site i browse, i could find this news. Shilpa Shetty caught cold, Sanjay Dutt got his nails trimmed, Salmaan Khan lost his Shirt's button (as if!!!). I mean i agree majority of the people are interested in celebrities personal life and stuff but a wedding dress? this is heights.

Of good music and a Cup of Coffee
It's a wonderful feeling to have a break after long time. Having said that there is hardly any critical work or any major releases, small things are the ones which give immense pleasure. Sleeping for a bit longer knowing that nobody to whip my ass at office, read the newspaper completely, have breakfast watching TV with no hurry, singing loudly while riding to office, finding latest songs uploaded in the websites, it's a different feeling altogether. With no critical work or deadline, sipping a cup of coffee with headphones on is like heaven at my footstep.
Losing a Parent
Its a nightmare to lose a parent at an early age; a dark phase of life which haunts forever but sadly its inevitable except for some lucky fellas whose parents see through it or in other words reach a ripe old age before they die. Very recently one of my friends lost her mom which came as a real head reeler for all of us (We are a group of friends who are very close to his family). Having finished her contract here, she journeyed to another world for another phase. Having completed our studies just out of college struggling to find a job, she was the one who used to fill confidence in us, we have lost a source of confidence. She was the one who used to inspire us with her simplicity and a down to earth personality, we have lost a source of inspiration. She was the one who used to treat us like her own children, we have lost a mother figure. When she was alive we could not tell her how much she means to us, Thank you aunty, thanx for being with us in our thick times. You have become a constant visitor among the random thoughts. Even though the crater created in our hearts cannot be mend, hope the sweet moments spent with u gives us strength in our walk of life.
First step is the Hardest
After craving to write for so many days here i am, trying to give some shape to my thoughts in words (trying to scrap some crap). I know that i have no right to scare people but god forbid AMEN ;-)
