We are all waiting for something.
Some things that need a lot of waiting
…are probably worth the wait.
And other things, you just don’t have a choice
so you decide that they are worth it anyway.
I guess all of us need something to look forward to
With a half-chance that they will arrive someday…sometime.
Good morning, my lovely readers! I was almost tempted to say ‘ my garam-samosas’ and then I realised I was just carrying the Honey-from-HT Cafe hangover too far. 😀 I had the most brilliant day yesterday! The morning rain ruined the grand plans of the day for me….grrr, if I…
This morning we waited on the platform while the train pulled in. We scrambled in to find a seat but found instead a plastic ‘thaelee’ and a cloth bag lying on the seats. BING BONG went the warning bells in our head and ‘unclaimed baggage’ drifted through our consciousness. We…
For Mumbai’s first Comic Con, I cosplayed Desire from Neil Gaiman’s ‘The Sandman’.
I’ve been taking tentative steps towards normal life (or whatever that looks like) in 2021. Is this a rebirth?
Last evening I was overcome by an urge to eat chana masala, the buttery over-spicy type, all covered with raw mango chunks and unidentified (but delicious) stuff on top. The Juhu beach variety. And while at it, bring on a naariyalpaani as well. Why not I asked myself (and oh…
Marol is where the ‘Mumbaiker spirit’ goes to die. *I should know, I grew up there.
One question: Which is this station?
Keep THINKING 🙂

and sometimes we wait even knowing they are not going to come, demons of false hope win the war over demons of reality!
A time shall come, and it sure shall,
We won’t wait, like another bait,
A time to march ahead, and make our way,
Pave the path to another day,
A time shall come, and it sure shall.
Until then, I guess, we shall just sit and wait. 😕
He had to be there by 6 in the morning,but he had to smoke before he came. Or he just didn’t care. Or his cycle had a puncture. Or he had an ailing relative. Or the thousand others that need to be wherever didn’t. It’s not why we wait, but that we have to.
waiting … for Friday . weekend. 😉
not too far now ! 😀
I’ve realized the only way you can keep your life interesting is by having something to look forward to!
Adithyas last blog post..Come a Full Circle
Waiting is great, but how much time is time enough? When you know that you have taken your time, is there any reason why you should wait?
Maybe patience and hope are not such great virtues after all. Sometimes, it is hope itself that does us in…
I’m not big on waiting. I’d prefer everything now, right now, and not a moment later! But, since that isn’t possible, at least I have plenty to do in the meantime … like waiting for patience! ; )
Brendas last blog post..Defining middle-age my way
Maybe I’m in a prosaic mood today, but if you’re writing about waiting for things in life and put up a shot like that, it merely suggests you feel deeply about local trains.
I’m waiting, too, for the great I to get back to her usual self.
@ Sampad: Offline! Or off public domain at least!
@ Ashish: Indeed.
@ Brad: It really will, won’t it?
@ unimportant person: Just what I said.
@ sahu: Aren’t we all?
@ Adithya: The carrot-and-stick allusion is the only thing that bothers me.
@ Rakhi: Well-put.
@ Brenda: Viva the impatient!
@ Anon Y.Mouse: Look at the picture carefully..there’s a train approaching. The post was built around the photograph. And yeah, I guess I do feel deeply about the local trains, I’m that much of a girl-geek. And err…what great self?
Well.. I guess thats what life is all about.. waiting..
Figuring out what to wait to for, and what is worth it… making mistakes in it and rectifying them, sometimes realizing sadly what all we missed in that wait… all these… I guess these are what make us what we are….
Ms Taggarts last blog post..The Dark Knight!
And sometimes you just wait for the emptiness to go away and the being able to wait for a purpose 🙄
Epiphanys last blog post..Rant
Its like waiting for a new blog post… its worth the wait anyway… 😛
we spent a large part of our life waiting for something… waiting for the school bus… waiting for that crucial result… waiting for the perfect someone.. waiting for the right time… The best part of our lives are spent between anticipation and achievement.. isn’t it.. ❗
Enjoy and take care..
Anything worth having, truly having, will never come easy.
What ‘tweet-up’. I’ll probably be at work tomorrow in the day.

AlexMs last blog post..Russia and Georgia
Waiting is the part of our life. Life won’t be interesting if you get everything in time!
@ Ms Taggart: What would life be if there were nothing to wait for?
@ Ephiphany: That’s deep. Or should I say, an epiphany?
@ Shantanu: 😛
@ Renovatio: I guess you missed it. Next time in this city, plizz to make it!
@ AlexM: Thank you very much! I hope you’ll continue commenting as well.
@ Kayal: 😛
