The King Is Back -Michael Schumacher

The King is Back --- Michael Schumacher is back, thats an awesome news if you are a F1 Fan. I was thrilled to know that Schumi will be back racing again and this time for Mercedez. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcBjx-viX3Y)

He left a big void when he retired and the gap couldnt be filled with any of the current drivers .

He owned the tracks , it was as though Schumi ruled them without any trouble , that invincibility and the aura he had is not seen in the current lot.

This season will be more competitive than the past few years and definitely the King will rule the roost .

Whenever i saw him drive , it was as though the machine responded to him in a way he wanted too ., he was always under control . It was like he didnt choose the machine, the machine chose him .

Iam sure , Schumi will bring back the magic which was missing in the last few years and will revive the interest and it will be even more interesting to see him drive in the new tracks and especially in the night races . Whatever the test may be , he is for sure to come out successful.

All the current drivers have acknowledged that he is the best and it would be an honour to race alongside with him , i bet it would be an honour and pleasure just to watch him drive.

Iam all eager and excited just to hear the crowd say Schumi! Schumi! .. and yeah he is just 2 victories away from 100 victories ..that will be special if he is able to achieve them in the first 2 races of the season itself .

As they say Age is just a number and what matters is our mind , Schumi , at 41 , is a prime illustration and by his return he indicates ..following one's passion will be for sure rewarding..

Well i would have been even more happier if he had signed with Ferrari but then Schumi Knows best.

All The Best to the King ..or should i say let luck favour the Other Drivers

AVATAR

Sometimes , somethings touches our heart and mind so deep , we have an impact for our entire lives , one such thing is the Movie " Avatar".

Man - The most destructive creature in this universe is at it again , this time trying to colonise an Alien Planet lush with life and colour especially Unobtainium which will fetch millions in $ , with brute force when his materialistic offer fails .

James Cameron has put in almost 11 years of smart and hard work to bring the beautiful Planet of " Pandora" to life.

The life forms in Pandora is diverse and unique in all the aspects and the Ecological and the Biological link has been narrated so elegantly and vividly .Especially it was amazing to see the Tree's interconnecting with each other and how the nature responds to the biological communication .

It is astounding to such life forms in real , trust me given a chance i will definitely go settle in Pandora. Thi shas to be watched in 3D, it is indeed astounding.

The indigenous people of Pandora have been beautiful portrayed especially their love for nature and how they teach to establish a link to each and every living organism on Pandora . They are so thankful to Mother Pandora for her abundance supply of resources to them and it is beautiful to see the way they Cherish and thank each and every creature in Pandora for its role and productivity in their ecological system .

The following of customs and rituals are so unique and has blended with the persona of Pandora .

The Na'vi are brave hunters and fighters who are true to their belief and customs and very serene and at the same time fierce when it comes to the battle.All the clans unite together when it faced adversity and they obey their leader with respect . They live as brothers and sisters .. " All for one and one for all " and they are not against each other like humans .

The Animals, Insects , Plants , Trees , Birds( if i may call them ) are amazing , they take our breath by their sheer size , colour and they are majestic . iam just astounded by the way they bond with the Na'vi''s and remain faithful .

The Wisdom Tree, The Home colony are really amazing work of creativity and they way they respond to situation are to be felt by heart and not to be seen by eyes .

The floating Mountains are treat to your eyes and especially those waterfalls are grandeur in nature.

I bow my head to the Na'vi 's not only for that fact they live in Harmony with Nature but they also ensure that they give back to nature as and when needed and even thank the souls of the animals for giving them food , when they are hunted down .

Well , we Humans are the same wherever we go , what matters to us is our own survival , we treat all the other elements with utter disdain and disregard .We are ready to destroy everything on our way if it obstructs our survival without a second thought that what was destroyed was very essential in one way or the other for our survival and we often tend to realise that we are going to fall pretty soon.

Much is to be learnt from " Avatar " , ironically the Movie has been released when there is Great Climate Summit being held in Copenhagen , Denmark , haggling over whether the Developed or the developing nations has to sacrifice its growth to preserve our Mother Earth .

We have to learn to live in Harmony with Nature , Sustain the ecological and Biological balance , the rise in temperature (Global warming ) is the greatest concern , if this continuous millions of life will be lost , nations will be underwater , the whole of earth will undergo a drastic change .we must act fast .

We need not follow the Pandorian way , but at least learn and implement the essential balance .We must realise that we can also connect and give back to Mother Nature.

The Pandorians were greatly appreciated by my friends and i can see the loathes in their eyes for Humans while watching the movie , then i realised , we have a new hope , today's generation will fight to save our Mother Nature and they will surely succeed.

hope atleast by an accident the World leaders watch this Movie and learn the much desired ethics and how to treat Mother Nature and our Gifts to Human Kind as time is Running out Fast .

James cameron really deserves all the accoladed and praises and the whole crew ..Hats off to them.3D effect was amazing , we feel as though we are physically present in Pandora.The actors and actress have acted brilliantly to bring the entire story in to Life , they were incredible .

I wont be surprised if Avatar Sweeps the Oscars .

Rambo N Rocky Series

Well, There are few influential movies in history , two such movies or rather franchises are Rocky and Rambo .I felt that we were influenced so much that we feel that we are fighting the battles in the screen . In particular Rocky , where we feel that we are the underdog and we fight in the ring.

Why do we relate to the above mentioned movies ?? . The answer is simple , because on or the other incidents in the movie have happened to us , or we have seen happening to other people around us . We tend to admire somebody who fights against all odds , sometimes even if an underdog looses we still appreciate them for their effort from the bottom of our hearts.

We back the underdog so much , because deep inside we know that we are underdogs in some way or the other .

Rocky is about a Boxer who had nothing but went on to conquer the world and Rambo is about a soldier who tries to understand who he is and helps the helpless to battle against the mighty .Both movies are about a man who fights and wins all on his own and how fate also plays its own game in each man's life.At the end , the message is simple " Have the will , fight for the right and justice , you will win ".

When you fight , always ensure fight for the right and fight in the right way too ,this way people will back you too . I personally believe these movies can always pep you up , especially the Eye of the Tiger " will definitely do , if not for the music or at least for the Lyrics.

They are a must watch !!!

Cheers

Sachin Tendulkar-The Hundred Machine

When stones are thrown at you , make sure you convert them in to milestones"-Sachin Tendulkar .

The Man , The Hundred Machine Just became the First Person In Odi History to Score a Double Ton!!!!!!!!

200* Vs SA at Gwalior!!! and the first man to complete 100 100's.

Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar , The name itself symbolises Talent , hardwork Dedication and most importantly Commitment.
" If Cricket is a Religion , then Sachin is a God" -this statement summarises everything the Sachin " The Little Master" has achieved in Cricket.

He is still the hope of a million people , he has inspired and made many people to aspire for greatness is life .

No one has carried such responsibility with such calm demeanour , elan and mange to accomplish what he has accomplished in the last 20 years .Innumerable records , award , praises and accolades but none has gone to his head and he is still the same 16 year old who went on to become one of the greatest ever.

Injuries and his life under constant public glare must have taken its toll on the "Master Blaster" , but he overcome everything and he retains the same zeal which he had as a 16 year old school boy and enjoys his cricket to the core.

Even when critics hurled scathing remarks at him he accepts them with calm and doesn't react.When opponents tries to pin him down with sledging ,he is more resolved and his concentration is so resolute the he makes His " Bat " and sometimes his " Ball" do the talking .

There are few who can satisfy and earn respect of all around the world and Sachin is one among them , wherever he goes and whatever he does people at once recognise him for not only his greatness but for his humbleness and simplicity too .

He is fine role model to everyone around the world , On and Off the Field.He is dignity personified.

His contemporaries Lara , Ponting , Steve Waugh , Inzamam have all rated him the best . The Great Viv Richards and Sir Don Bradman have told that " When Sachin Bats , it is as though they see themselves Batting".. what more could you ask for other then this great comments from the Evergreen Gods of Cricket.

His association with Philanthropy is a well known one , his association with Anapalya which works for the upliftment of Mumbai street children is really commendable .H is going to sponsor around 200 children for their educational needs.He always makes it a point to do charity whenever it is possible.(http://cricketnext.in.com/news/tendulkar-to-double-educational-charity/41395-13.html) .

His records are almost unbreakable (12,773 runs in Test Cricket , with 42 centuries .12,178 runs in ODI with 45 centuries , most runs in a world cup(1796) and it goes on ...There is still a few milestones missing like a world cup win , test series win in Australia ( though we have improved out record in recent times ) , Southafrica and yet to score a 250 in test and the special record of 400* ( which is currently held by Brain lara.
" When stones are thrown at you , make sure you convert them in to milestones"-Sachin Tendulkar .

I Hope and Pray that in future he achieves the missing milestones too , so that when he retires ( that will be a longtime from now ) he will be the only "God Of Cricket".

Travelling.

"The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” – St. Augustine
“There are no foreign lands. It is the traveler only who is foreign.” – Robert Louis Stevenson

Travelling is the best Teacher. We really cant learn everything inside a classroom. Travelling widens our horizon's , broadens our thinking and yeah most of all teaches us about values and to respect other cultures.From the snow clad Alps to the deserts of Sahara , everything is a new experience and its a great adventure .

Well right from ancient Chinese to all the greatmodern sea farers have earned respect and are viewed with awe and wonder just because they travel far and wide and even today we have a great esteem fora person , who travels a lot .The fantasies of far lands have always driven man to explore and to travel.Wonder what would have happened to our history text books if we didn't have those famous travellers "http://www.silk-road.com/artl/srtravelmain.shtml" , check out the link for the famous and most important ones .

Travelling also teaches us compact life-style and we think out of the box if in case a problem arises , we make even a tooth pick useful to us .It most importantly teaches us to respect each other and respect nature .

Travelling is like a mystery novel ,we don't know what to expect and when to expect ., it keeps us alert , and yeah it "makes us penny and pound wise".

My hats of to those ancient travellers , they must have great will power and confidence to come to a new land , and to acquire knowledge about different culture and people without knowing the local language or the demography , what an effort it must have been to travel to ancient India .!!!.

History would have missed a lot of snippets if not for these travellers . The mode of travelling too is fun , it doesn't matter whether we travel by land , sea , rail or air . Each of them gives us a new experience and some give great friends and at last the moments are to be cherished life long.

My dream destinations are The Land of Pyramids , The ancient city of Rome , The Mythical Land Greece and last but not least The land of Incas.

Meet you there amigos .

"He who does not travel does not know the value of men.” – Moorish proverb
“A journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.” – John Steinbeck
“No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow.” – Lin Yutang

Friends...

Who or Which shapes a man's life ? . I would say it is certainly Friends and Friendship .Friends play an important role in every body's life. We learn from them , cry for them and with them , smile and laugh with them , fight with and for them .Human Beings can live without a family but not without friends .

We would have come across a lot of stories about friends and their friendship . Good examples are King Karna and King Duriyodhana from Mahabharata , both were ready to sacrifice their life for each other and then Lord Krishna and his friend Kuselan , The great Che Guvera and Fidel Castro. The Three Muskeeters- One for all and all for one . " All the above mentioned friendship have created History and we still read about them.Friends together can re-write destiny .

" A Man is known by his company" is a fact . Good friends shape us well , give us a positive outlook , they give us confidence and they are always watching your back ." A friend in need is a friend indeed " . True friends will help us , no matter where we are and in which position we are at . "Friends should come to you for what we are and not for what we have " .Once you realise that , you will know the quality of your friends .

In today's world we make a lot of friends , school friends , college friends , work friends and yeah of course online friends , but only few remain till the end . We must cherish each and every moment with our true friends , life will be more merrier if we choose right friends.

"When you cry they are a shoulder to you , when you laugh they double your happiness , when you need a lift , they are the ladder for you or when you want to just talk , they are the ears for you "-Friends.

My Quote for Friendship ...
" Remember me , neither for the summer nor for the winter , but for tears which i shed when i missed you .
Remember me, neither for the days nor for the weeks , but for those cheerful moments that we spent .
Remember me , neither from your mind nor from your heart , but from your soul that there is a friend who is always there when you need him."

So if you people have not contacted your friends for a long time .. they are just a call away , don't miss any of your friends , don't let silly fights to come in between , cherish all your friends for they are an unique gifts to us .Let the band of Brothers be one and remember " One for all and All for one "

Cheers

Few Lines!!

" You are a sweet dream to me , i never want to wake up from this sleep

Fill my heart with your sweetness so that i can cherish you in my temple of love

You are a soul of care , kindness , warmth and full of eternal love

For which all the men would earn for ".

" When i look in to your eyes,i realise that i have lost my soul in your heart ,

My eyes are searching for the same" .

" You are what i see ,

You are what i think ,

You are what i do ,

My Love , you are the one for whom i breath ,

If you part then i just become a body without a soul ".

" Some have sweet smile , some have serene smile , but

you have a smile which can even make " Death" a pleasurable experience".

" When i dance with you , i feel like dancing on the clouds with an angel ,

you are a " Divinity in Motion ".

" The night sky is beautiful not because of serene moon and the sparkling stars , but because

of her serene face and sparkling eyes".

" My heart doesn't beat for me , but it beats for you who is inside ".

" I didn't know that Angel's existed , till i saw you".

Sports!

Do you Know when a man cries ?? ....It's only when his favourite sport's team looses.!!

What brings us together ? .. Religion- nah !!! Education - nah !!! Grub-nah !!! .. what's that one thing .. !!! yeah .. its SPORTS. If its Football in Europe , then its Cricket in Asia , then its Baseball in America.

The Ancient Greeks rightly thought Sports will bring People together , since they had a vast empire .The thought proved right , it did bring people together , that was how Olympics were born.

We are just mesmerised by these play field " Gladiators" , we are just observed by the sport in the middle , we just fail to keep track of time or rather we forget the dimension of Time .. We Forget not only time , we forget who we are, what we are and where we are . We almost feel as though we are in the middle and all the action is up on us and we can win the game for our team . Trust me , everybody who adores sport will agree with me on this .

We just adore the people who play these sports or do we ? . We love those who are very very good at the sports they play . We don't call " Bend it like some jack".. we call it " Bend it like Beckham ". What Beckham wears , what hair style he sports , whom he marries .. !!! all makes news .. !! . We call Sachin Tendulkar God of Cricket .Schumacher the King of F1. The Brazilan's Samba Football.

We just have given them the Demi -God Status. We pray to Gods for their Success , we feel elated when they do well and when the team wins . , we cry as though we lost our dear ones when our team looses. There might be a world war 4 or cold war brewing between father and son ,but it will all be fine when they sit down to watch a game of their choice , then we can realise the passion they share for the sport .

Women folk have also joined in the bandwagon , they not only watch sports actively but they also have made it to the top of the sports world . The list is long which comprises of names like Steffi Graff, Martina, Billie Jean King , Mythali Raj , P.T Usha .

Sports brings out the best and worst of us . The worst is something which we need to avoid , the rioting especially and the hooligans in football. People have to understand that they are putting themselves in danger and also other's life too .Sports is something which we need to enjoy in the right spirit and we must understand matters is participation and playing fair. It is certainly not to be treated as a battle and the pitch is not a battle field. It is certainly not good to break the T.V sets when your team looses or to hurt somebody.

Personally , i really feel that sportspeople deserve their adulation and admiration because they do indeed sacrifice their life for what they believe and they achieve what we couldn't. We shouldn't be judging them when they fail and praising them when they win , we certainly shouldn't be fickle, after all they are also humans !

Sports kindles and ignites the spirit in us and it just brings out the kids in us .

Don't ever miss out on an opportunity to watch a sport with buddies, because that's when you realise you still have the child in you .

Cheers

Dance

Dance .... That's a magic word for me or rather for most of the beings on this planet .

Dance is so intoxicating .. it gives the freedom of expression .. it makes oneself free from all worries .. it makes you think .. you are the " One".

Why is dance so special ?? Why everybody earns to dance?

Well i guess its just because it gives you the feeling that it makes you forget all worries. The dance Movies .. " Flash Dance", " Saturday Night Fever ", " Staying Alive " , "Grease", " Dirty Dancing " evergreen dance movies and the songs , the moves from the movies... " Staying alive " , Lambada .. they can make anybody dance , even people with two left feet !!!.

Dance is a like a medicine to many people .Yes,its kind of a drug , but good kind of a drug , makes us forget everything and just keeps us in a cheerful spirit .

Dance is an art , dancers are true artist . Some are divine, they can just enchant us with all their moves and makes us forget everything.." King Of Pop " Micheal Jackson was a prime example .

John Travolta in his Grease days was another gem .

People adulate great dancers , they just adore them and they mimic whatever they do .

Dance , For me is a passion . Its just " another part of me ".I t enables me to realise my self , to express my feelings and to be in a positive frame of mind.

When you are on the stage its a feeling which we cant explain , the expression on the audience's face after your performance , when they cheer you , when they adulate you , when they say it was awesome .. that's when you feel you have achieved something which nobody ever had .

The feeling , the adulation , the cheers , the cries , the screams .. only dance can create that magic !!!!.

This Is It

Micheal Jackson -The King Of Pop.. is true in all sense . He is just awesome.One in a Million . It is so sad he left us all early .True Talent never fades and Micheal is a true example of this and " This Is It" is good example of the same.

He is just a natural on stage . No signs of Drug addiction or fatigue . He is as nimble and agile in his dance moves . The way he chooses is back dancers , the way he is composing , the way he is suggesting the stage props its simple mind -boggling .

His voice is the same . His Magic is the same . We all deserved one good last show .Alas , that was not to be .

I , we , all Love him for his magical music.. as the movies ends by displaying " Love Lives Forever "..Micheal and His Music will Live Forever in our Hearts , Minds and Souls .

Long Live Micheal's Magical Music.
