Dear Friend...

I know I am not supposed to be doing this right now during office hours.
I have got some crap coding to do , but somehow I just can’t put my mind to it right now.
So decided to pen down whatever is in my mind.

You feel so disappointed when you can’t do something to help a person in need. You just don’t know what to do. The fact is, one of my close friend is going through a tough phase in life. I don’t know what to tell the person and comfort. I don’t know what comforting words to tell, because I myself don’t believe in whatever I am saying. For every comforting sentence I try to say, I am getting questioned back. All I can do is just listen to whatever this person has to tell, but this person is not even talking. Well there is nothing much to say. Whatever has happened, has happened. You can’t sit and talk about it when you know nothing is going to change.
What would you do when you have longed for something so much, you have prayed for it, taken so much pain and in the end you lose it. Why doesn’t God listen to such sincere prayers ? Not just the prayers of one single person, a lot of people’s prayers for the very same thing. I guess the sorrow caused to us by not answering our prayers will be less, when compared to the sorrows caused to a lot of other people by answering our prayers. That’s the only comforting thing I can find.
You feel so helpless in such situations. Especially when you owe so much to this person. A person who has helped me a lot, who has saved me from a sinking ship. Got me up on my own legs, changed the whole world for me. Helped me through the most rough phase of my life. The person who gave me a lot of courage to face the tough situation, showed me what is right and wrong. I know how this person feels since I have gone through something like this in my life, but not to this extend.
Dear friend, I know that anything I say right now will not make sense to you. I can understand what you are going through. I know I do not have comforting words for you right now. But if at all there is anything I can do to help you, please tell me. You can call or mail me any time you want to talk. My prayers will always be with you.

West Coast trip....

Hey... long break from the blog world. As I mentioned in the first post, I am a very lazy person. I was a bit lazy ( rather way too lazy ) to just write down stuff here though I was constantly blogging in my mind. Had lot of stuff to pen down, but never got myself to do it.

So ya, a quick recap where I have been hiding. Went on a week long trip to west coast. Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, San Deigo, Los Angeles are the places we tried to cover in 6 days time.

Grand Canyon is an such an awesome place... I just loved it. We just covered like 1/100th of that place. But it was amazing. I really would like to go their again. Go for trekking or take the helicopter ride over there. There is so much more to see. I want to go down to the bottom of the canyon, near the Colarado river.

Then went to Las Vegas, the happening place. A place with lot n lots of casinos and people. Its such a crowded place. I was seeing a casino for the first time, and I never knew what happened in there actually. Its a place which makes full utilization of a man's weakness to earn more money in the easiest possible way. A nice place in a different way. I dont think I am that keen on visting once again. A one-time visit place for people like me.

San Deigo was our next destination. Went to the Sea world there... The Dolphin and the Shamu show were the best there. Its a huge place, missed a lot of stuff there. But had fun, the time we spent there.

Next we went to DisneyLand. It was a dream come true for me. From the time I was a kid, I always wanted to visit Disney Land. I just loved being in this place.. Its such a hugggeeeeeeee place. Acres n acres of land spread across.. with lot of exciting stuff.. All the cartoon characters that we have seen and grown up, all of it you will find it here. A dream land in its true sense. I was with the mature people's group, so didnt get a lot of chance to see a lot of kid stuff. This place reminded of the good old days when watching cartoons was my favourite past time. I used to wait to get back from school and watch cartoons in our alloted time slot. Not a min more or a min we were allowed to watch cartoons, with the exception of weekends.

Then the Universal Studios.. I am not a keen watcher of English movies, so this place did not catch my atraction that much. They did show us the different tricks that they do and create the world's best and award winning movies. There were the different rides and shows over here. All together it was a nice place, but not upto Disney Land.

So ya the Grand Canyon and Disney Land, I would love to visit these places again.

All together, the trip was good... got to see a lot of places.. but hectic..since we tried to cover a lot of places in a short time.
