So yesterday I wear these jeans which have been like tucked away for a year (not my fault… they just got lost in the oodles of clothing!) And wow does it feel good to realize they still fit me. But sadly in spite of that, the perpetual paranoia that I’m fat and getting fatter doesn’t go away.
Then, I come across a friend of my sister, and this is the second time in my life that I am meeting her:
Sister’s friend: Hey, you look like you have lost weight since the last time I saw you.
Me: (gaping and speechless with disbelief)
Sister’s friend: You look more fresh too.
Me: (recovering a little) umm I think I’ve gained weight since last time.
Sister’s friend: No you definitely look smarter.
Me: (fishing for a reply and finally realizing my manners) ohh….thank you.
And she leaves me wondering if I’m overly paranoid or was she just being nice to me.

Starring: Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston
A break-up with this movie is what I suggest! Its endless moments of bickering and pointless arguing that does not make sense. And errr was this by any chance supposed to be a comedy?? Personally I don’t see the comedy in two people endlessly arguing about God knows what. There is just too much negativity in this movie and it refuses to redeem itself … although you are hoping that may be now .. may be now…
****BIG Spoilers Ahead****
Considering that Jeniffer Aniston keeps telling the guy that he does not care enuff for her, never spends time in doing the things that she loves to do blah blah, it still comes as a surprise to him when she tells him in the end that that makes her feel unappreciated. Errrr…

Very simply put … life is worth living! Not because of any glorious moments or big achievements but more so for the small, often unnoticed, seemingly ignored moments. Its the little things that we tend to overlook that are the very spirit of what keeps us going.
Its the people around us, the shared moments, the laughs, the tears, the endless talks and so much more which adds to the essence of living.
All the memories … the only treasure that you do get to keep. So make good memories! Walk out in the rain, laugh with a child, hug your mom, do honest work and remember the praise you get for that, smile, laugh. That is what life is in its simplest and purest form! In its happiest moments!

Why??
On the outset, this may appear like an ambitious slogan to some, especially the cynical. But if you were in an optimistic frame of mind, it will be easy for you to realize that despite all its hardships and difficulties, life remains a wonderful gift. And it’s only fair to use this gift to the fullest by living it to the fullest.
How??
Living life to its fullest doesn’t mean that you don’t encounter hardships, or that life is perpetually pleasant and luxurious. It means diriving yourself to the edge, maximizing your potential and striving to give back much much more than you think you have received. It means having an open mind and attitude for all kinds of diverse experiences and individuals. It means having or striving to develop the kind of vision that can take you beyond your limited horizon.
