Princess Diaries Version 2.1

Long since I updated my blog!But I had been on a spellbound trip for 10 long days,so got disconnected from the technology part of life.Now back after the refreshing trip with newer thoughts to share.

Famous:Oops I am not talking about the famous five novel!Oh then what is it I am talking about?!?!




I was watching the India-Pak match recently(just dont worry, I will not load you with anything that is cricket,because neither I know the details of the game nor will bore you with the already media hyped topic) and had cheered all through the game just like most Indians did. The minute the match got over,the spectular celebrations made me sit back and watch with smile on my face. But there was something that my brains was doing, it was dreaming.!!!!!!!!Dreaming too big........How would it be if I had a father,son,husband,boyfriend or simply a close friend who was one among the winning team?Or I was there on the ground playing as part of the winning team?Why do we all want fame to hit us or the people we know?What was the special feeling about being popular? With my questions doing its wonderful work, I didnt take my eye out of my television set.Everything got over and at last I came back to fill down my diary.


Sat down thinking about the day....and after all with the spirits driving me high what else would I write, other than the match.Kept writing about it, but stopped suddenly when the questions hit my brains again.POPULARITY......FAME........MONEY........SUCCESS....My God why do most of us love these words! Still getting confused, but only when there is confusion my brains think -"think more and think beautiful". What makes us popular?Is it being Ash or SRK or the big B or our own superstar Rajinikanth-a defined life?Is it being Mother teresa,sania mirza,Ambani and co.,Jawaharlal Nehru........and so on-a well lived life?I doubted on my own thoughts. Why do we create hype for certain things and leave the rest unnoticed? A huge dedication of a good life's work would have been awarded with less than what a actor earns fora single film!Alas thats a pathetic truth!Anyhow, whatever be it, there is something that makes being famous a most liked tagline.

A world of our own,dreams unparalled by creativity, life full of innovative thougts and heart that just wants us to keep working for our passion-this might just be the right mixture of getting to the top.Where ever and how ever we are there is a small difference between that famous and not so famous. We might be successful in what we do, but not famous. The reason is simple that little passion and patience was missing. Any one who is famous is just not popular because his work was successful,theres something more.This little more than what others did is what fame gives. Be it at your work place or your college or just any where, there is only one who stands out of the crowd. It is not that he worked 24hrs and u did only 12 hours, it is just that he worked with sheer love of what he was doing. He might also have had rough patches all through his tenure, but that would have only made his heart more stronger than before. And going back to the thought on "well-lived life". It is a simple satisfaction that comes with every little popularity that we get. And it brings in lot of greatness into our life. This enthralling feeling of "WOW!I DID IT" is just enough to add that wonderful chapter to our life "well-lived life". But all this is just for the loveof what we do,if getting famous was our motto and not what we were doing?Then it would surely end in a chaos. Fame comes with our love to what we do, and not with wrong deed of publicity.

If someone is thinking as to why did Bill Gates alone made it to the top , while there might have been few more who were as capable as he. It is just that small difference, his "PASSION" spoke words of determination everytime he fell down the ladder. While the other few might have got disturbed with failures. So if you are seriously passionate about something, then be it getting famous or successful everything will hit your doors at right time. Only that along with your passion, dont stop dreaming big and work in a way that will help you realise it. So you don't have to worry about that at all. Just keep up your love for what you do "alive" always .

So, for what are we waiting to get famous and popular, it might be anything from Kalpana chawla's nasa drive to pretty Priety's bollywood foray or from Sania Mirza's cute tennis to Arundhathi Roy's writing. Anything you dream is, it is there to stay with you if you know that it is your passion and power to do and show it to the world. And with a very short life at our hands, why not start today and live the way we dreamed to. Because at the end of the day what makes us happy and great is what makes this simple unpredictable life.
