ELEVEN MINUTES!!!!

Hi Friends,
Recently i read Paulo Coelho's ELEVEN MINUTES....based on the life of a prostitue and she risks everything to find her 'inner light'. well... the novel was philosophical but not the kind of novel tht one can usually expect from Coelho... And strictly this novel is not for the beginners...

There are many, but here i show u a few excerpts, tht i like from the book... hope u vl too....

1. I am two women: one wants to have all the joy,passion and adventure that life can give me. The other wants to be a slave to routine, to family life, to the things that can be planned and achieved. I'm a housewife and a prostitute, both of us living in the same body and doing battle with each other.
The meeting of these two women is a game with serious risks. A divine dance. When we meet, we are two divine energies, two universes colliding. If the meeting is not carried out with due reverence, one universe destroys the other.

2.Neither of us were tired. We went into the living room, he put on a record and did exactly as i had hoped: he lit the fire and poured me some wine. Then he opened a book and read:
A time to be born and a time to die;
A time to pluck and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
A time to kill and a time to heal;
Atime to break down and a time to build up;
A time to weep and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stomes and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get and a time to lose;
A time to keep and a time to cast away;
A time to rend and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence and a time to speak;
A time to love and a time to hate;
A time of war and a time of peace.

This sounded like a farwell, but it was the loveliest farewell I would ever experience in my life.

GOLDEN WIN FOR INDIA :) :) :)

This day was/is very special to India...
Abinav Bindra of 25 from Chandigarh bagged the Olympic Gold medal that an Indian won nearly after 28 years who holds an Masters degree in Business Administration and a CEO of the comapny 'Abhinav Futuristics' in bangalore....

He was the youngest contestant in Sydney Olympics where he broke the olympic record in shooting but failed to win in the finals...
In the winning ceremony, he maintained his calm and composure. But when he was interviwed i felt he was showing off... n his felow members were also keeping him away from the media... i just dont know wat wud have happened if he wud have answered few more answers???

But he made a nice quote which i admired and its ... " U need to believe india and its power"

The day had another fine start wid Saina Nehwal entering into Quarterfinals, another great day for Indians...
But v Indians r exctied so much about just one medal!!! day to night i was finding the same news again n again repeating every 30 mins or 45 mins... i was just wondering what will happen if indians start bagging laurels like USA or China???

~~~ONE WORLD ONE DREAM~~~

On the day of 8/8/08 at 8 p.m. n at the 8th minute..... olympics saw the finest ever welcoming ceremony in Beijing.... i was just gng crazy to see the inaugral ceremony.... n atlast it ended... letting the viewers in awe n wonder...

I really got impressed with the concept of ONE WORLD ONE DREAM.... i was with the performers enjoying, sharing their happiness n excitement... n sometimes with the cheering crowd. The 2008 percussionists stole the show... i was just placing myslef as the manager of the olympics team n thinking of the victory i wud have got...

The 56 member indian team was lead by Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore......
the entire surrounding was superb superb and added it to was firework display which captivated most of the show...

How i wish cud have been in olympics... atleast they cud have selected me as a substitute for any game..it not fair!!!! ;) ;) ;)
