Genie in the bottle



Imagine if you were a genie in a bottle , and burried away deep into the darkest caves . And the only way to break the spell and come out was this was.... "Atleast 5 people whom you have had a very strong relationship and broke off with you completely , must come and rub your bottle in order to set you free "....it can be your your ex lover , or your ex best friend. The question is.... How many of them will come to release the genie from the bottle ?

I dont think even one person will come to free the genie from the bottle ...forget about 5 of them. So how long do you think the genie will be in the bottle ? 1 year ?...10 years ??..1000 years ???....infinity ???? forever and ever ??? The genie is trapped in the bottle ... ,trapped forever...none of the friends or relations whom he laughed and played with will come to free him....Many years ago , when these relations were strong , All of them played together , loved one another , some were best friends who shared everything ...these relations were real bonds which were broken off due to some unfortunate circumstances and cannot be repaired. Sad. After the relation , no one thinks of the other , or if they do they either try to forget the person. They hardly look at each other , there is a sudden transformation and they become complete strangers who dont even look or smile at each other.

The genie lies trapped in the bottle , till infinity with no one to rescue him.
So is it really worth brooding over a broken relationship ? They wont come to your rescue at all , so what is the point in worrying about it ?


We do not have to lead the life of a genie in a bottle...In life we have two options , we can choose to fall deep into the pulling pits of misery , or we can choose to get up and come back into the real world and re-live our lives better than ever... the choice is ours.

Black Spidey




Is it possible for us to be a good person alwayS and always go correctly as per the books ? Do we have it in us to be good always ? Hey most of us are good at heart , but sometimes being too good can lead to a downfall and end up having people treading over you. You become weak. Sometimes after being good for many years , and when you see all the bad people are doing well ,we tend to doubt , whether all our goodness was worth it ? After many years of being good , we may slowly slip for a moment towards our darker side for a while. Just like in the movie Spiderman 3 , where there is this 'good Spidey' and the 'bad Spidey'. Its not that spiderman was a bad person , but he too has his black sides despite being a superhero that saves people. But at the end of the Spidey story , the good overcomes the bad , and everyone is happy. I guess each one of us have black sides just as Spidey did. Yeah , we are all good people , its all about taming the black side. If we didnt have a black side ,perhaps we are not human. I guess its ok to be black Spidey for a short span , but we must make sure we return to our good selves at the end.

Best is yet to come...




Sergey Bubka debated to be one of the best atheletes in the world in the sport of Pole Vault.
Bubka was and is the world record holder unbeaten in his sport till today . Its almost been 30 years ,
and is still unbeaten. He made the first world record in 1983 , then the only record he broke was his , the only
competition he had was himself. Each time he broke his own record , 5.70 , 5.85 . 5.95 , 6.00 , 6.01


1983 World Championships in Athletics-Helsinki - 1st - 5.70
1987 World Championships in Athletics-Rome - 1st - 5.85
1991 World Championships in Athletics-Tokyo - 1st - 5.95
1993 World Championships in Athletics-Stuttgart - 1st - 6.00
1997 World Championships in Athletics-Athens - 1st - 6.01

Bubka had no challengers , so he kept pushing himself...and breaking his own record.
He is a living proof that gives people inspiration to push themselves to the next level.
I believe if each of us push ourselves like bubka..setting a benchmark for ourselves ,
and pushing it to the next level , followed by the next level and go on increasing the bar ,
I cant imagine where we will be.

I guess the best in each of us is yet to come , and we havent seen it as yet.
So lets keep trying for the next...because..."our best is yet to come...."

Jesus Inside




A beautiful quote in the bible which i read whenever im going through a rough phase in life....

...."I look up to the heavens......Where will my help come from ?
My help will come from the Lord that made the heaven and earth...."
Wow.... These beautiful words come when i used to sleep in my room helpless in sorrow....

Later when I sit and worry about my future ,my family ,my survival in tommorrow's world , my retirement ....these words are whispered in my ear....
"Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"


Beautiful...Isn't it ?
