10 THINGS TO DO BEFORE YOU RUN OUT OF TEEN AGE YEARS

1)- Get drunk & go wild!! (don’t we all wanna do that?)
2)- leave your inhibitions- do that thing that scares you the most, it might turn out to be your favourite thing
3)- like someone? Go talk to him/her....you might end up together forever or might find someone else but you won’t regret not asking that person out & then forever wondering.... did s/he like me, like me not?
4)-go on a trip alone before turning 20-discover yourself before you are bounded with responsibliies- enjoy your freedom
5)-make a “bucket list”- if you’ve seen the movie “The Bucket List” you’ll know what I’m talking about... if not then please do so it’s a must watch!!
6)-make up with all whom you’ve fought with, asap!! Don’t hold any grudge, you will curse yourself for it (speaking from personal experience)
7)-do something worth remembering in the future, when you’re old, sitting with your friends at your home, thinking about old times & think how crazy you were to do that... trust me it’s gonna be worth it.... but it should be something wild & crazy!!!
8)-do as much as possible in your teen years, this is the age where you are allowed to make mistakes!! PS-experiment
9)-Always read & follow my blog
10)- If you think any of this is rubbish, feel free to post a comment, & if you have your own list do share it here with other readers!!

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL

Ever given a thought to this? 3 simple words with a very deep & true meaning. We take life & everything around us for granted that we hardly realize life’s worth.
When we’re busy running around competing with others & time to do this, reach there, achieve this, beat him, we get lost & forget to enjoy the special gift that is life (after all only a privileged few get this opportunity of life & a select few the gift of human life)
You being able to read this or I being able to write this for you to read is in itself 1 of the things you’ve been gifted with..... & only a blind/ physically disabled person can tell you how lucky you are to be able to do it. They know life’s worth & they show respect to it unlike you & I , cos they know how it feels when you lack something!!!
We go ‘awwww’ when we see a beautiful painting of a sunset or the lake & the countryside or that beach on a canvas, have you ever stood still in your balcony to see the sun set? How beautiful it looks & that 1 minute gives such calm & peace.
 Or ever looked out the train/bus/car window & seen the nature/people outside?
We go to planetariums to view the stars, but only if we would go to the terrace at night, lie down & gaze at open beautiful sky above!!!
Why do we always look for happiness in big things in life? Why not in the small li’l moments that make up our life?
“life is what happens to you, while you’re busy making other plans”.....indeed.
Then why don’t we cherish those little little moments in life?
As they say good things come in small packages.... life’s beauty is in those small & special moments which make us go “ahh!!”... those real moments in life where we share that 1 piece of cake among 5 friends or offering your seat to that old aunty in the bus(gives you inner joy). We crib about going to college atleast we don’t have to sell anything at the signal
Nobody said life would be flawless, but they promised life wiould be worth it
live life to the fullest, as they say it is not the years in your life but the life in your years that matter.

GOODBYES

All my bags are packed I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin' it's early morn
The taxi's waitin' he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go................................
At some point in life, we’ve all had to bid goodbyes to those special ones, who we never want to lose, yet destiny is such, we always lose those near & dear ones, in my case I’ve always been unlucky & so maybe I’m the best in bidding goodbyes, I’ve become strong, but yet no matter how many ever times you bid goodbye, you always feel vulnerable the next time when you bid goodbye to that special someone.
Today in our times, it is easier for us to keep in touch with those who we lost years ago, because of mails, skype, facebook & what not?
But it wasn’t the case in previous times, when lovers had to bid goodbyes cause they fought wars, or parents whose children went abroad & never came back........ well my 1st goodbye was when i was 8 & my bestie left me though I reconnected with her thanks to facebook...... but i still miss her.... since then I’ve bid goodbyes to many closed ones............. the one thing that I’ve learnt from this is it’s not easy bidding goodbye to anyone & sometimes nothing is in your hands you have to move on in life & well consider yourself lucky if you havn’t bid goodbyes to your closed ones.
