"Falling in Love" - Seroiusly...do we fall??

I always wondered whenever I heard this phrase "Falling in love"......Why does somebody have to FALL in love?? I have always understood or attributed the word "fall" to something that is negative...Love is positive..
This curiosity/inquisitive thoughts led me to the first resort of all questions -"The great Google"...and came across the Wikipedia page which said -"The use of the term "fall" implies that the process is in some way inevitable, uncontrollable, risky, irreversible, and that it puts the lover in a state of vulnerability, in the same way the word "fall" is used in the phrase "to fall ill" or "to fall into a trap"."
Well...this is something that can stir a debate...Some might dismiss this as rubbish...while some others might argue the other way saying it is love for the other person that brings you to a position wherein you become vulnerable to external forces...
 

New Boy in the City

July 20th, 2012:
I came to this so called "Garden City" this day. I had visited this city many times, in fact, had stayed in the outskirts of this city for 3 long yrs..but things were different then....Now, was a totally different scene.
Like many other management graduates, I came to this city hoping to make it big in the corporate world. What else could a management graduate want!! Joining the Management Consulting team of one of the "Big Four"...
This fresh mind came in here with the hope of starting a new life. I had always heard that Mumbai is a city that teaches you a lot, makes you experience everything, it not only gives a lot but also takes from you a lot. Although, i was born and brought up there, i had never got that feeling there. However, this seemed to be applicable to me here in Bangalore.

January 15th, 2013:
I would be completing almost 6 months of my stay here. As I press the pause button, there are innumerable questions that flash right in front of my face.....Ashish!!!! What have you done all these days? What have you learnt? Have you grown (apart from physically growing horizontally)?? In how many faces have you brought a smile? In how many faces have you brought tears?

I always prayed to the Almighty to bestow me with challenges so that I become stronger and mature..God was delaying but never denied I guess..:)....
The best thing happened to me here and the irony of life is that I have now chosen to give it up myself. The immediate reaction that comes is "Are you sure you wannna lose the best?"
Well, it does hurt a lot to lose the best....but then...................................................................

I know my thoughts are very random, going around in 100 diff directions. The more i think of trying to calm it, the more disturbed i am...As usual, the "Unclear Ashish" seems to be even more unclear.

Long time...no see....

Whoa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What yaar??? Long time no seee.....Thats what my blog page said to me when i came back to see my own web blog page.....God!! it has been a long time.....

As i had written in my earlier posts that we, humans tend to get so involved in our mundane activities that we dont seem to pause, relax, reflect and feel the joy of this beautiful gift called "Life". Well, i had, nay i have fallen in this trap of "mundane activites" but neverthless thanks to my BEST FRIEND... i am trying to amke an effort to stop, take a deep breath and mull over what has happened so far......

Also, writing this blog had helped me look around, observe and enjoy the finer aspects of life....seem to have missed all of that all these days......

Well...as they say..better late than never..Thank You Friend...Am ever indebted to U....
I guess thats what a true friend does....GOD...I love U for having sent me ur angel......
