Sunday Movie

Wicker Park, a remake of a French film L’Appartement was my late night or more of a late evening movie today. The movie deals with plain love and obsession. Like Love, Obsession too is generally a matter of opinion. At some point, everyone has had a romantic fixation of some sort; it’s just a matter of how far you take it, or rather, how far you let it take you. This movie did take me to blog about it..I think one should watch to understand the movie, as my review wont cut it!
In the movie: The jeweler tells Matthew, "In the end, it's not the eye that must decide." How do you think Matthew decides in the end who he should be with? Is he making a responsible decision?

Now see the movie to answer the question.

Soften: This word can help your make friends.
Smile: Smiling says I enjoy being with you. "It's a voluntary act. Anyone can do it."
Open Posture: Let your body say your want to be friends. Uncross your arms and legs. The more open your posture, the more welcoming.
Forward Lean: If your lean toward people, they get the message that you're interested in them and they'll like your for it.
Touch: Touch is one of the most powerful nonverbal ways of communicating. Try shaking hands with two hands. Or, pat your friend on the back.
Eye Contact: Another potent way to express interest, attention and respect.
Nod: People love it when you nod when they're talking. It doesn't mean you agree, just that you're attentive.

Befriend!

Love is that "perfect" thing, which, as it grows in our life, replaces our need for and concern with the gifts of the Spirit. You do not have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince or princess! Find someone you want to meet, and who wants to meet you. As you do not want waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love.
Am I a secret that you keep? Some day you just keep pretending..
Tell ME!
Am I a shadow on your wall, am I anything at all anything to you..
Tell ME!
'Cause you do not want to say:
"Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I loved, I did not say so."

So, what motivates us to live? Hunger, Fear, Selfishness/Desire or Love..
Many of us have long been convinced that the way to happiness(living the life) exists in making those around us happy. Is that the true answer to live THE life? What about our own inner happiness and inner peace, our own inner truth?! Imagine the effect on the world if everyone were making an effort to attain inner peace! To find the inner need for living.
To attain freedome!

Deception

Explore..
Question : Is it wrong to lie?
Some say being crafty is to lie. Does it mean it is ok to lie? Or is it that the Truth is lie (right is wrong)? I guess itz worng to lie about the truth in the wrong time in a wrong manner. Does it make sense? Is this the answer? Are there truthful alternatives?

Note: A lie is a statement, believed by the liar to be false, made to another person with the intention that the person be deceived by the statement.
This definition mirrors the one offered by Sissela Bok

Tired of Being Tired

Ah-ah-ah?..AH_CHOO!!!!

Throwing up and not eating
How will I ever get well
My head cold is so demeaning
And fever is burning like I'm in Hell!!

Irritating head colds and fevers
Coughing, sneezing, feeling fatigued
I wish I never caught such sickness and I hate it!
Will I ever be so relieved?

How are you? If your answer is tired, pooped, drained, exhausted, wiped out, worn down, spent, or beat, you've got company. Fatigue means that your resources are strained. "It's your body's way of telling you something is wrong," "You can and should do something about it."
Stop: Relax!

Yes!, We all have the ability to prophecy over our own lives, and one can do so by FAITH, so why would you go to someone else to find out what God is doing/wants you to do in your own life.? That is like saying , I don't believe that God will speak to me and I don't have a relationship with him/her, so I have to go ask someone else what he wants to say to me? That is like asking someone on the road.. Am I hungry? I am gonna leave at this and let you people analyze/conclude this; `cause I believe:

Fact!

Every year, SuperBowl exacts its grisly toll in death, crime, mental illness and excess carbs.



Approximately 6% of Americans call in sick to work the day after the SuperBowl.



One report estimates that 52.9 million American workers watch the Super Bowl every year. That equals two out of every five people who are employed. Each worker blathers on about the game for about 10 minutes every day at work during Super Bowl week. During the five business days leading up to the game and the Monday after, each worker costs his employer about $15.54—and businesses lose about $821.4 million each year because of water-cooler chatter surrounding the Super Bowl.



Pizza restaurants do more business on Super Bowl Sunday than on any other day of the year. Domino’s alone delivers about 1.2 million pies to Bowl jockeys. With a standard large pie boasting 2,048 calories, the Bowl is responsible for Americans ingesting nearly 2.5 billion calories through Domino’s alone.



It’s bad enough that you’re frisked and fondled when you enter the stadium, but every fan who entered the gates in Tampa before 2001’s Super Bowl XXXV was subjected to a biometric face scan.



Serious auto accidents jump 41 percent during the four hours after the last play of the game. From 1975 to 2001 there were, on average, 4,000 serious crashes, 1,900 injuries and 24 deaths per Super Bowl.



More Ads!!! At 1.3 million dollars per 30-second spot, each commercial is very special (or at least SHOULD BE). Research shows that Superbowl commercials are recalled at more than double the rate of commercials run during "normal" prime programming. And with 58 commercials scheduled, it's important to be special, creative, and original. Advertisers reportedly spend over a hundred million dollars just FILMING the commercials -- more than it cost to make "Jurassic Park." I am expecting great things.



During a rehearsal for the halftime show of Super Bowl XXXI in 1997, the bungee cord of 43-year-old performer Laura “Dinky” Patterson malfunctioned, causing her to plunge headfirst onto the 50-yard line of the Louisiana Superdome. She died instantly. NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue kept his priorities intact after the accident. “The overriding thing is, we are here to play a football game that will decide the championship of American football,” he decreed. “Death is a tragic thing, but you have to put some degree of perspective. Life is a combination of joy and tragedy.”



As if Wall Street didn't have enough to worry about, this year's Super Bowl match-up suggests there's not a lot of hope for U.S. stocks to end their three-year slide.

"Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself."
I think about things to blog always at the most opportune moments like:

-right before I fall asleep

-in the grocery store

-meetings

You catch my drift, always at moments when it is impossible to blog. Resulting in blog less days, hopefully not weeks.

But somehow, I always remember to check my yahoo mail account daily. Which, do I dare say, actually lead me to blog today. I got a comment from an entry I posted ages ago and it tickled so. Thank you visitor.

I kind of feel like I had been visited by a space alien; special, in aw :)
Your comments makes a lot of difference .. don't hold back!

Ego - puts labels on things - prejudice. It is tougher to look beneath the labels, categories. It's on the inside that counts. More so of a psychological part of the mind that reacts to reality and has a sense of individuality - the self - organizing principle. Of course, to some this is all done to boost up self image (social mask), and to increase feeling of self importance, & self superiority but like I said earlier I feel truly humbled. That does not give me the right or the ability to change your inner thoughts of who I am. And thatz when I have/will say YES! So What? I do not live for the others but me! Because, one does things to be first (self motivation), to be the best (driving) everyone else is doing it (sheep) or not doing it (rebel). I try and draw the positive energy from what other say from me rather than trying to change it. If you think I am an egoist.. then I am and I am happy that way :) Reflections.



Thoughts for the day:
Personality is not inherently good or bad.

The forgotten part of ourselves is our spiritual core for the better tomorrow.

The personality side of our being isn't necessarily bad or wrong.

Ego plays brilliantly on our fundamental fear of losing control, and of the unknown making thus ego is a tool to be used. The ego is not meant to rule our lives!!!

When we accept ourselves as we are, we feel free, empowered and at peace.

YES! So What?

Today I went to the Ritz Camera Shop in Anne Arundel Mills Shopping Complex with my brother. We were talking or I was talking to the sales rep Dona, when she was telling me that they utilize Adobe Photo Shop to restore old and damaged photos.. upon hearing that I said is that right.. I know how to use Adobe myself :)

Later my brother:

You know, Dona ( sales rep from Ritz ) would have thought me to be an egoist person!

And I am like huh? YYYY ??? Anyway.. so ???

I don't deny I am an egoist. Who isn't? Those who are sure of themselves, who don't suffer complexes or neuroses, who can laugh at others and at themselves -- they are egoists.

Of course there are imposters, but you can spot the difference. It sounds contradictory but an egoist is humble. Take myself. When I think that despite all the countless combinations of life and circumstances, I am what I am (and I am not speaking behind a burning bush), I feel truly humbled -- I could have been worse, like many of my acquaintances!

I would rather like to break out in bellyfuls of laughter -- spontaneous, unrestrained and loud, laughing at myself, at difficult situations, and at difficult people. I am confident there is no situation or person I cannot handle. But, occasionally, there are situations and people I really cannot handle, so, instead of being bemused, I act amused :)

note: "people" is just an example.


Your views are more than welcome :)

One of my friend says Jegan is

"A person I would describe as confident, cocky, motivated, helpful, and stubborn at times.

He was a very good of friend mine. I met him couple of years ago and got a chance to know him then. It did take us a while to really get to know each other as our work schedule was very hectic and the only social conversation we had was either,” where does this coffee go?” or “ Is the rava dosa ready yet?”. After a year or so, we went our own ways but we still kept in touch. Its after we left that place, we got to know each other better. A very friendly guy although might not seem so friendly when you first approach him. He has a mind which is hard to comprehend even for himself. He loved doing outdoor activities like skiing and snow boarding. If u knew him like I did, he just seems like a normal guy, but he is extraordinary in a way that he is focused, he knows how to deal with life, he knows what he wants and most of all he was a social human being.

A friend I will miss and I shall treasure the great times that we spent together and the long arguments and conversations that we had will always be there."

How true is this.. what do you think about this ?? Let me know...

The Physical Processes of Decay


1 hour after death the muscles relax totally.

3 hours after death rigor mortis sets in. [Interesting if they died in an unusual position]

After 1 day the body has fully returned to room temperature. [I presume the skin cools much more rapidly but internal...]

After 1 day the skin shrinks/contracts. This makes it appear that the hair and nails have, or are still, growing.

Within 1 to 2 days, if flies are around, they will begin laying maggots in available areas of the body such as between the lips and eyelids.

After 2 days rigor mortis relaxes.

After 2 days the internal tissue begins the process of decay; starting to turn into gasses and liquids.

Within 1 week the flesh has become `liquid like' under the skin; and the skin can fall off if touched.

In 2 weeks the stomach distends due to accumulation of gasses and this can lead to the discharge of a dark, bloody liquid from the nose and mouth of the corpse.

After 3 to 4 weeks the body is extremely decayed:- hair and nails can be easily pulled out; the trunk has swollen to twice its size; while the face has gone a purple green and the tongue protrudes.

[One bloke mentioned that after 5-6 weeks the body has become what they in the trade call a `soup'...]

Finally; if a body is buried in the ground then after a time of 10 years all tissue has turned to liquid and gas and been absorbed by the surrounding ground leaving only the bones.



Anyway; I hope the information was useful and not too disturbing. Any errors are undoubtedly my own as I only started taking notes half way through the show.
