1. Assume that you are loved.

2. Assume that those who love you find some kind of value in you and the things you do.

3. Assume, however, that you don't need to be valuable in order to be worthy of love.

4. Assume that there is no one out there keeping a tally of all of your failings, ready to throw it in your face when you're either feeling too good or too awful about yourself.

First of all ,I would like to thank to all those people who bothered to ask me, how am I?? where did I go?? That was such a kind gesture. Now talking about, what happened to me?? the best answer would be I wa lazy, and I covered it up with my busy life. WHICH INFACT IS A BIG LIE, I could have atleast posted one article atleast in a week. But I was so busy or may be I was bored of this blogging world.

But now as Iam back in this world and had made (??) my mind to stay for ever :) ,but behind this decision also I have my own selfishness. SInce one month, I have so many things going on in my mind ,which I was not able to sort . I was so irritated,frustratedand lost. I was not able to track what was happening with me, how to tackle with them and I cried,I complained ,I prayed, I fought with god but there was no use. Then with a better heart I tried to think ,and then i understood,there is nothing god can do for me untill and unless I help myself. So, I started browsing for relaxation techniques,meditation techniques etc, from which I took ideas also and tried doing it for 3 days or so and dropped that also, YES IAM A RESTLESS MIND. But then, in search of mind peace in google( our best friend) ,somewhere I read ,do what you love doing. I was trying to recall what I love to do, and then “thaddaaaaaa”, I love writing I realise. “OMG, I have a blog also and still I do nothing in it and looking for a hobby to be developed, Iam sucha fool” was the thought stuck me. Thus, here Iam writing my first post after along gap(I don’t even know, when I stopped). Feeling so good to write, excited to see all your response, and promising to stay hoocked.

Take care all.

Happy Go Lucky Gal.

” WE ALL ARE WITH YOU “  – My dear Brothers & Sisters in the street fighting for our beloved Prophet Muhammed S A W . May the Almighty help us succeed. Ameen.

“Yes, Iam a MUSLIM and I believe PROPHET MOHMAMMED ( S A W ) is the messenger of GOD. “

Even though, when the Muslim world was very much burning in the name of film “INNOCENCE OF ISLAM /MUSLIMS” by few Known & Unknown Americans, I was least affected by the news, my life as usual and as (boringly) normal as ever. Today as I was listening to the morning news which was roughly like “Indian PM has already to requested to the YouTube and Google to block the Video or any details regarding the film as it has resulted in riots in some places in India….”, I finally decided to see what exactly this people were pointing to, moreover I wanted to know if it was banned here in Qatar (Being a Muslim country I expected so). But to my surprise, it was not, I could see few clips dropping down. To my curiosity I just played the first video of 12 mnts duration. It was a real pain to watch that clip, which in every minute insulted Islam, Muslim and our beloved Prophet Muhammed SAW. How could someone ever do this..??? I never knew meaning of Freedom of Expression means insulting other person’s feelings and beliefs??

I am not an extremist or terrorist, I am a MUSLIM, a follower of Prophet Mohammed (S A W) and a believer of Islam.

I am a human being with respect for others and my own feelings. Prophet Muhammed, whom they portrayed as a gay, rapist, mass killer and whatsoever was a leader whom people beyond religion respected, He was called as Al Ameen (the trust worthy) , he was said to be the softest yet strongest, patient and one of the best of Mankind (if you Google it you can find more details). And that great personality was insulted?? It’s not about the religion, it’s about the belief and emotion of approx. 2.1 billion people in this world. Does any one care about us?? Will the responsible persons for this massive protest ever be prosecuted?? Can anyone bring back to life the brothers, sisters, father, mother, children our fellow human beings lost??

I know, not every one of you will understand what I felt seeing my Prophet being dishonored. Or none of the questions (which I had mentioned above and rest which has been cooked inside me) will be answered. In that note, let me tell the world, I love my Prophet more than anyone in this world and his honour is mine too, his insult is mine too. Lastly, I would like to wish all the very best for the team & crew members of this film for their life here and here after.

A complex truth made as simple as it can be :

Most of what I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be, I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate mountain, but there in the sandbox at nursery school. These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don’t hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don’t take things that aren’t yours. Say you’re sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Flush. Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you. Live a balanced life. Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some. Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the plastic cup. The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that. Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup—they all die. So do we. And then remember the book about Dick and Jane and the first word you learned, the biggest word of all: LOOK. Everything you need to know is in there somewhere. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation. Ecology and politics and sane living. Think of what a better world it would be if we all—the whole world—had cookies and milk about 3 o’clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nations to always put things back where we found them and clean up our own messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world, it is better to hold hands and stick together.

As I read from a random guys random post, but it made me laugh :

A truck driver frequently traveled through a small town where there was a courthouse at the side of the road. Of course, there were always lawyers walking along the road. The truck driver made it a practice to hit any pedestrian lawyers with his truck as he sped by. One day, he spotted a priest walking along the road and stopped to give him a ride. A little further along, as he approached the town, he spotted a lawyer walking along the side of the road. Automatically, he veered his truck towards the lawyer, but…then he remembered his passenger. He swerved back to the center, but he heard a “whump” and in the rear view mirror he spotted the lawyer rolling across the field. He turned to the priest and said, “Father, I’m sure that I missed that lawyer!” And the priest replied, “That’s OK, my son, I got him with the door.

A guest in a posh hotel comes down to breakfast and called over the head waiter and read from the menu “I’d like one under cooked egg so that it’s running, and one over cooked egg that it’s tough and hard to eat. I’d also like grilled bacon which is a bit on the cold side, burnt toast, butter straight from the freezer so that it’s impossible to spread, and a pot of very weak, lukewarm coffee.” that’s a complicated order sir, said the bewildered waiter. “It might be quite difficult.” The guest replied sarcastically, “It can’t be that difficult because that’s exactly what you brought me yesterday!” .

njoy and have a good day :) :):)

Yesterday evening we went for an unusual shopping,this was the first experience for both of us. Okay, now before you wonder, whether we never use to shop or whats so unusual about it?? let me tell you, Mr. FM is off to school in the coming week and we are busy buying his school uniforms, bags ,tiffins, water bottles etc. Was totally confused figuring out what and all he will need. Its a different feeling of the thought of he going school. I feel so happy that he has grown, but then, its hard to realise even I had grown..:( . Yeah.. Imagine, now , Iam a mom of a schooler and from now, all my phone calls, chats and even blog post will be about schooling of your kid..!!!How strangely and fast our life changes and how our priorities changes is magical.

2 years back, when I started working and Mr. FM was very small, I didnt want him to sent in a daycare , I decided to hire a full time maid (its a big deal both financially and socially to hire a full time maid for a young expatriate family in Qatar) , so I decided to try my luck with few with out sponsoring them, In a short span of 8 months, I tried my luck with almost 4 maids and gave up..!! My whole day was a big mess up and I found it really hard to manage my job and home and “MAIDS” especially. I still remember, one of my close friend, then said me ” you know , dont get me wrong, you behave seriously like a psycho now, you have nothing else to speak to anyone other than maids. before your face lights up when we name a place we visited or a food we tried, but now I see that only when someone say that they all so have a miserable maid.: ” that was seriously sarcastic, but it made me think, is it true?? if not why should she lie?? then I analysed myself, and yes,I found out its true like hell..!!! thats the moment I realised I have to get out of the situation (there were tims when I worry about my kid and hubby so much ending up scolding irritating them the most) , and I resigned..!!! Yes.. left a good promising job of mine and decided to take a break, relax and then search for a new job. And I did that, I cooled my mind and body,visited our family in Kerala,India, and came back ,thank god, I got another job and till date everything is going on well. But after taking up the new job, first thing I did was to sponsor a full time maid for us (spending a whooping sum :( , still woth it), so now my life is better, (All praises to the Almighty God).

And, thus Mr. FM has struggled and over come so much ever since his birth (he was a pre matured baby,born in 8 month first and weighing only 1.9 kg) , now he is stepping into the a new world of knowledge,fun and friends, I wish my son, all the very best to his future ahead with a small piece of advice, ” You have only one life,so live it to the fullest. Everyday will have darkness, face it,when it lights up, rejoice it” (I hope one day he will  read and understand what it really means, he will love us (Me & my Hubby) for being not so sweet sometimes :) )

With Love,

Happy Go Lucky Gal
