This is a song Ive been singing for a long time. its like an old friend. but, you know, I think it, its only recently that I discovered what its really about.

Youve got to give a little, take a little,
And let your poor heart break a little.
Thats the story of, thats the glory of love.

Youve got to laugh a little, cry a little,
Until the clouds roll by a little.
Thats the story of, thats the glory of love.

As long as theres the two of us,
Weve got the world and all its charms.
And when the world is through with us,
Weve got each others arms.

Youve got to win a little, lose a little,
Yes, and always have the blues a little.
Thats the story of, thats the glory of love.
Thats the story of, thats the glory of love.

Glory of Love : Beaches : Bette Midler

Also like this song a lot..

What else is new ??

Well, lets say I am trying to find a part of myself.

Been feeling a little lost. So getting inside myself to find that part. I know its there somewhere inside me…

Otherwise.. I loved the moon that came up on Holi. At one point there was no power and the moon the moon rays seemed to lighten up the neighborhood with its beautiful rays.. in full glory.. I just went to my balcony, looked up and breathed in the serenity that was brought forth by the beautiful moon..

I was also reminded of the moon when I was in Kovalam, we were lucky to see another full moon and the moon appeared so big. Much bigger than the one in Bangalore and it was another awesome sight.

Well anyway.. so the week has gone by in a frenzy and to balance it with the ricochet of lost thoughts.. I am alternating between some really quiet moments within myself and swinging to music and yoga of course. I think that was one of the highlights of my life now.. besides getting lost in words and in meaningless questions and answers which does not really solve any problems.. I know its a phase.. and I am waiting for it to pass by…

So anyway.. hope you had a great Holi. We were working as usual during one of the holidays which we used to celebrate largely… back home..

Have a good weekend..

Lyrics | Tracy Chapman lyrics – All That You Have Is Your Soul lyrics

Oh my mama told me
‘Cause she say she learned the hard way
She say she wanna spare the children
She say don’t give or sell your soul away
‘Cause all that you have is your soul

Well I was a pretty young girl once
I had dreams I had high hopes
I married a man he stole my heart away
He gave his love but what a high price I paid
All that you have is your soul

So don’t be tempted by the shiny apple
Don’t you eat of a bitter fruit
Hunger only for a taste of justice
Hunger only for a world of truth
‘Cause all that you have is your soul

Why was I such a young fool
Thought I’d make history
Making babies was the best I could do
Thought I’d made something that could be mine forever
Found out the hard way one can’t possess another
And all that you have is your soul

So don’t be tempted by the shiny apple
Don’t you eat of a bitter fruit
Hunger only for a taste of justice
Hunger only for a world of truth
‘Cause all that you have is your soul

I thought, thought that I could find a way
To beat the system
To make a deal and have no debts to pay
I’d take it all, I’d take it all, I’d run away
Me for myself first class and first rate
But all that you have is your soul

So don’t be tempted by the shiny apple
Don’t you eat of a bitter fruit
Hunger only for a taste of justice
Hunger only for a world of truth
‘Cause all that you have is your soul

Here I am, I’m waiting for a better day
A second chance
A little luck to come my way
A hope to dream, a hope that I can sleep again
And wake in the world with a clear conscience and clean hands
‘Cause all that you have is your soul

So don’t be tempted by the shiny apple
Don’t you eat of a bitter fruit
Hunger only for a taste of justice
Hunger only for a world of truth
‘Cause all that you have is your soul

Oh my mama told me
‘Cause she say she learned the hard way
She say she wanna spare the children
She say don’t give or sell your soul away
‘Cause all that you have is your soul

All that you have
All that you have
All that you have
Is your soul

Sunrise By Norah Jones.

Sunrise
Sunrise
Looks like morning in your eyes
But the clock’s held 9:15 for hours

Sunrise
Sunrise
Couldn’t tempt us if it tried
Cuz the afternoon’s already come and gone

And I said
Hooo, hooo, hooo
To you

Surprise
Surprise
Couldn’t find it in your eyes
But I’m sure it’s written all over my face

Surprise
Surprise
Never something I could hide
When I see we made it through another day

Then I say
Hooo, hooo, hooo
To you

And now the night
Will throw its cover down, ooo, on me again
Ooh, and if I’m right
It’s the only way to bring me back

Hooo, hooo, hooo
To you
Hooo, yeah, hooo, hooo
To you

And if you want to listen to the song.. here it is

And its a nice slow day…

I took up blogger Aqua’s suggestion to look this site up.

She gave me this link www.babajob.com.

Its an awesome site if you are looking for any kind of domestic services..

I had three interviews in about 2 hours of calling the numbers.

Registered with 673/- and posted up the job. Had access to all phone numbers

I highly recommend this service to anyone who is looking for domestic help in Bangalore..

And I got THE cook.. and that too in a day.. Buhahaha .. !!!

On the sidelines, I am thanking God that I am in India and its fairly easy to find help and affordable as well. Makes life easy.. I keep hearing from my Indian friends abroad how difficult and expensive it is to get help there.. Sigh..

Thank God for small mercies. !!!

On to the next projects..

• Finding an extra parking place in my new apt.. open parking/close parking ??
• Designing my new kitchen..

Rock On !!! seems to be a fun movie.. Like the songs in the promo.. Do I see strains of Rang de Basanti.. hmmm…..

On a different note.. I have this ex colleague and old pal Gaurav, who is doing real good with music . Do check him and his band out..

Till next post.. I leave you with this tune.. I love this song..

I am swinging to the tunes… ummm nice..

I just hope the movie is as good as the music.

On a different note :

Do you know of a place which has all the food only in the menu and at a prime hour tells you that whatever you ask for, nothing is available..

Do you know of a place which gives the serving to the wrong person… that is serves your order to your friend and serves your friend’s order to you ?

Do you know of a place who serves you a dish which needs spoons to eat but does not serve you spoon and napkins till you ask for it.. and yes the condition is that this is a place for the so called youth crowd with fancy hookas and all that…

YES YES YES its time to tell you the answer..

The winner is ….”MOCHAS” – AVOID IT !!!!!!
