Intelligence and Contentment

Was chatting with Deepali when it came up that Intelligence and contentment go together..
I feel Contentment comes with Intelligence..
You dont have to have certificates to prove your intelligence...it can come in any form..But it normally precedes contentment

Jodhaa Akbar

Finally saw the movie..man was it long!! But cant say I did not like it. It was a grand movie indeed. The number of people in the war scene was huge..could have been roughly the same as what the Mughals had!!
But the best part for me did not come from the movie but from the little girl sitting next to me. She asked her mom.." why do they sleep in their cotume dresses"
I did find it amusing and thought for sure these must be uncomfotable..no matter how soft the silk is but it still must be not the most comfortable night wear!!
When we the common lot wear our night clothes am sure the royalty could have surely been able to afford it..Something worth looking into !!

Finally saw the movie..man was it long!!BUt it was indeed a grand film. The scale of things was huge.
But the best part of the movie for me was not from the movie but from the kid sitting on the next seat. She asked her mom..."Why do they sleep in these costume dresses?" I did find it amusing..but then also thought these are the small details we miss out on...even in such grand films.
Even us the common lot normally would not sleep in the same clothes that we had worn though the day..then these royalties..would they have done it?? Even if they discard their clothes after one wear but it must be not very comfortable in sleeping those day clothes..hmmm something worth pondering about..

Driving!!

I have finally started to drive, wont say am still comfortable but am doing it. But my first instinct is to run away. AM not sure why do I feel that way but driving freaks me out. Everytime I am on the road, I see so many people driving around, infact some would be even eating, many would be talking on the phone, some even putting make up ( seriously have seen women do it..esp while getting onto the freeway!!!!) and I get amazed at myself..It must be super simple but then why do i dread it.
Everytime i know i would have to drive, my heart starts palpitating,wierd thoughts start coming to my mind..but once I am on the drivers seat it becomes a little better.
Though I must say Anshuman has been extremely extremely patient.
I hope someday I would be as comfortable driving as the other people on the road..although I would not want to do makeup!!!

After a long Time

Got down to blogging after a long long time..so much has happened.In October last year I finally hiked up the Mission Peak!! Not a huge hike just 6.5 miles but it was a good feeling. It actually felt nice. There was a time I felt so tired and thought would I be able to do but I knew if I did not do it now would have to do it all over again.
It was a different kind of experience. Must say enjoyed it.
