Michael Jackson a Genius

I was not a big fan of MJ, but I became one. He was and is a legend in Pop, true a ‘king of pop’.

I watched Thriller, Billie Jeans and Beat it. Watched it over, watched it over again and again. I love them all. He writes dances and also sings. He is one such soul born only for music.

THRILLER



BILLIE JEANS



BEAT IT




Watch ‘They don’t care about us’ wow. He should have practiced every single step a thousand times for perfection like this.

THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT US:



The big question why this world started hating him?
He failed to be himself. I mean look at mid 70’s and mid 80’s videos, he is so real. He lives himself. He is very real and originality was there. He is very innovative and unique that time.

No fake plastic surgeries, No fake nose and no fake appearance. Why he became media centric MJ and why he couldn’t concentrate in music career? He tries to move away from reality and created his own world to live in. People liked only original MJ; they loved only his voice and dance not the color of skin. It is apparent Majority of his fans white Americans and African Americans doesn’t love his too artificial looks.

"Being you" and "Being yourself" is more important than pretending to be something else. If you have frustrations show it and get rid of it. Do not try to act be real. Do not try to hide, show up. Do not hesitate to correct others mistake, be open to accept your mistakes.

Be Honest, Be truthful - do not misguide others. Be it a professional or personal stuff, Integrity is crucial.

The Moment you try to act smart, the moment you try to fail others, the moment you try to enjoy others problems YOU ARE FAILING YOURSELF.

Like my mom says,” when you try to cheat others you are cheating yourself”.

Be happy – 3 important factors for happiness is ‘Be Honest’, ‘Have Integrity’ and ‘Be Courageous to accept your mistakes’.

Live in Peace.

Enjoy the GHOST too.

15 Titles!!

I am getting goose bumps. Nonstop Hah’s!! Feel like crying loud and still I wonder. He is one such example for consistency. Non-stop and back to No: 1 spot. Unbelievable.

This is possible only with a mental stamina.

It all started with 2003 Wimbledon, 2004 Australian Open, 2004 Wimbledon, 2004 US Open, 2005 Wimbledon, 2005 US Open (Vs my beloved Agassi), 2006 Australian Open, 2006 Wimbledon, 2006 US Open, 2007 Australian Open, 2007 Wimbledon, 2007 US Open, 2008 US open, 2009 French Open and now 2009 Wimbledon.

Muscles torn apart, Knees grind down, bone crushes and you grow tired. This kind of starching is possible only with an extraordinary power. Will Power! And what else?

He inched to No:1 Spot. When he lost it to Rafa he cried. A strong never feels ashamed of crying.

With that consistency, with that concentration he moved back to No: 1 Spot again. So quick, it’s a matter of 1 year.

It all reminds me one important thing – Where there is a will there is a way.

Speaking Healthy

I know this. But I make mistakes very often. SPEAK HEALTHY. Communication plays a very important role in life. I communicate with all emotions but forget the important lesson. Sometimes it is 100% okay to keep mouth shut.
Silence speaks much better than poor communication. I don’t blame anyone but my words are sharp and it definitely hurt others. After that I don’t even regret and my EGO will tell whatever I did is correct.
if there is a mistake on my side, most of the times wrong message is being sent. I must have courage to accept my mistakes! Not once, twice or thrice it had happened. I am calm and cool most of the times and will not speak a word. When someone tries to provoke me, I just go crazy to peak of my temper and make sure that other person will never comes to me.
What drives this emotion? I am very sure this is because we speak and not writing. You cannot correct it and no way you can undo and redo that.
My Mom always tells something “You own the word that you don’t speak, the words spoken owns you” very true.
“I don’t mean to hurt your heeling”, “That’s not I am trying to tell”. That makes no sense after I speak.
There are two dangerous aspects in taking advantage while speaking
1. Authority – I overlook things and I take full control of the situation. (it may be a failure though)
2. I think I am the best and self esteem and ego grows in to multiple folds.
3. Once it goes out of hands, the speak turns in to an ugly chatter to win
4. To win the argument, disagreement and vendetta grows
5. What not………….. List is very long.
It can also be a simple criticism of loved ones or a professional stuff.
I always be polite and nice with strangers, but take people for granted once I know them very well. I think I need to realize the importance of being with people and value other person as a human.
IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO HAVE DISAGREEMENT IN A FEW WORDS

WHO ARE YOU? ask yourself ..........

The very essence of self-realization will give the answer who am I?

Am a wonder in god’s creation. I am a combination of 5 elements, earth, sun, space, water and fire. The survival of universe depends on thousands and million and trillions of creations just like me. When universe is an atom and god is nucleus, I am one such tiny electron in this huge unimaginable universe. God, just let me move along with such uncountable electrons.

The path that I chose to live will have impact on this universe. When I Spread happiness, everything looks happy. When I am arrogant, I fall on the negative side. The energy positive or negative evolves from one’s own thoughts; words and actions will bring me automatically to a main stream positive or negative energy existing in the universe. Being good or bad is karma.

Whatever the big picture is, I am thankful to God each and every moment. I am thankful for creating this world so perfectly and beautiful. I am thankful for making me think. I am thankful for making me to spread happiness. I am thankful for putting me on a positive stream. I am thankful for everything that he gave me.

Precisely, am part of Him and He is in me. Having said that, I will try to be happy, spread happiness, help others, and help poor and needy, work towards a defined goal.

DO YOUR DUTY WITH BEST POSSIBLE POTENTIAL; DO NOT WORRY ABOUT END RESULTS.
– Bhagavd Gita.

World Record

It looks like Rafa’s early departure from clay court is destiny. It’s a Destiny for Federer.

Federer joins Fred Perry, Don Budge, Roy Emerson, Rod Laver and Andre Agassi as the only men to have won all four Grand Slam titles and was presented the Coupe des Mousquetaires by Agassi. My fav was Agassi earlier.

Now, I share my feelings between Rafa and Federer. If they both were on center court, my vote for Rafa. If not Roger becomes my default.
He wrapped up a 6-1 7-6 (7-1) 6-4 victory in one hour and 55 minutes.

With Five Wimbledon titles, Five US Opens, Three Australian Opens and one French Open – he is 14 equals Sampras.

Best Wishes to you

JFK, NY to SFO, CA to JFK, NY

Friday (05/22/2009) Morning – I was excited to see my sister after a while. She booked my tickets in American Airlines. I decided to take train to reach JFK airport. Sharp at 06:30 in the morning, I bought return tickets to New York and took MTA North.

I reached Grand Central around 07:10 am EST. Metro Card is easiest way to commute in Subway. One day Pass, unlimited ride for 71/2 dollars. I took uptown to Bronx on subway 6 and next stop is Lexington Ave 53rd street station. From there one should take transfer to Subway E to wards Jamaica station (approximately 26 Minutes ride).

From Jamaica, we have Air train (Monorail system) to connect all 8 terminals in JFK Airport. After security I checked it’s already 10:15 am and my flight was scheduled at 10:50 am. I rushed to gate 37 and grabbed some fruits and vegetable salad for Brunch. The Flight is Being 727, big aircraft. This one is suitable for International travels. As it was a long weekend, it was full. I enjoyed hot cup of Coffee and browsing through magazines. It was wonderful scenery.

The Birds eye view over Denver Colorado was beautiful. In SFO (Sanfrancisco Airport) while arriving, it looked as if we are landing on a sea. Its too close to pacific ocean. Around 2:15 pm PST I have reached and my sister came for pickup.

Friday evening Me, Harini and Mani went to see Raji, after a long time. She is blessed with two sweet little kids. Sat (05/23/2009) we went to Matha amirthanandamayi ashram near San Ramon. There is a lot of volunteering work going on there and arrangements for visit of Mathaji. It’s a 170+ acre hill farm donated by an American. It’s a wonderful place, while going back; I saw lot of cattle graze in wealthy California. California is one such wealthy state where you can see hi tech Silicon Valley next to cloudy mountain hills and cattle’s. Also saw Star Trek movie. It’s not a good movie, not bad either.









CA is totally different from any downtown Stamford or New York for that matter. Even Sanfrancisco is totally green and hilly. The next day morning, we drive to SFO. Esp. the crooked street impressed me a lot. It was a pleasure seeing Golden Gate Bridge. It’s an architectural marvel. There was not forged steel used, it’s a cast iron pipe that tightly holds thousands of thick Iron rods, that makes this Suspension bridge cables. Truly American engineers worked hard to make this possible. The bridge is said to be one of the most beautiful examples of bridge engineering, both as a structural design challenge and for its aesthetic appeal.







Monday is a rest day and I traveled back to JFK. In the morning, I woke up on flight DL724 with a bright sunrise above beautiful clouds.

Life is a journey and experiences bring beautiful memories. Those keep us alive and keep moving.
