One of those morning

This morning has been quite irritating .I must decide what I want from my life ..... These thoughts are now tiny clouds in my consciousness ......let's move on....

Today is new morning. Bright and beautifull one ...I came home at 5.20 am . Night was not that consumptive since we outside professional for deep cleaning at our store . They don't have perfect equipment to clean store like starbucks. Our store is quite big . Its located on broadway 51 st street. Quite busy though we don't make top sale in the city. We are one of the high revenue store.

Frankie, racqueta and rubi were working last night starbucks shifts have become stress busters for me . I feel good about going there. Its lively . People are easy and they accept me in more fulfilling way as time passes. Time has such a great secret . I am getting along with few people is good way. I hang out with them , watch movie and drink pina colada in five in the morning. I don't have much to share with them because the way they think its totally different than the way I grew up in india. For example they make some jokes about immigrants about which I am totally unaware of . Last night they were talking about reverse mexican style .....I don't know what that is ....it damn interesting to know their langauge ,slang and sex lives ..... Few girls are lesbians. They are so bold about their adventures and experience . I like their vital force of life . In sanskrit I would call this thing elixir of life 'jeevan rasa'

AGain coming back to this morning ...I met tom . He has slim and fit body and very friendly in nature . Our reason of secret brotherhood was bicycle. I was parking my bike and he just appeared from the path station. We said hello . He has mistaken me for someone else but anyways we became very friendly in ten minutes of conversation.
I asked him about the ways to take bike to the manhatten . He told me me that only way was take bike þhrough george washinton bridge. We discussed the unfriendly nature of public transport to carry bikes.
Ten years ago , one has take permit to carry bicycle in path trains now atleast people can carry their bikes in some specific timings . We agree that things are getting better but its a long way to go........

I just finished a book by irwing stone the lust for life . What a amazing life von gogh had ..... Poor and desitute but always showered with theo's love and life long affection .....when vincent died theo could not take it and he also died in six months .... As in bible someone said "they cannot be divided in death .

White silk which is covering me all over

Its lazy morning with many broken promises.
When I slept around twelve thirty ,the first broken promise was to get up early and go to precinct 24 where I need to get my finger print for canadian visa purposes. There were many mundane promises which break with myself every morning ..every moments and every day ....once my boss at greenpeace said that we compromise with ourselves in the morning , we keep compromising through out life. I think he was right because I see in my own life that compromised made in the morning reflect in the day too . Our life is essentially made of passing moments. A moments compromised is life compromised .
I woke up at a 8.16 pm , open my window of ground floor apartment . A white silk has covered earth , cars and my petit bicycle . A big bumps of snow was formed on my bicycle seat. When I bought this vintage quinn bike from a chinese guy in down town Manhattan , it was covered with purple colored plastic . I didn't tacit and it turned out quite safe from rain and snow till now.

Snow brings something to the city. I was in 1 police plaza today. Its a building behind the city hall.where Mayor Bloomberg sits. Tourists never get tired . Lots of people are taking pics of snow covered mta buses and park. Labourers are busy building freedom towers. I spend few minutes in overlooking the construction which stll look like big hole in near path train station.snow has covered the big monster trucks and other machineries busy in construction activities.

New police head quarter reminded me of railway headquarter in mumbai when I used to go to get permission for Greenpeace awareness campaign. There were certainly less people but the smell of furniture and rest rooms were similar though I must say nypad has relatively well maintained rest rooms .

I am in 6 train right now . This one has new cmpartment and bright interiors . Its nice and new people are busy listening music through their ipods.one girl is sipping starbucks coffee. I must

lOVE IS ALPHA AND OMEGA

I watched love in the time of chlorera at regal last night. I was excited from the day when marquez agreed to director's wish to make a movie on his classic.

Its always challenging to make movie on some immortal classic like love in the of chlorera . Though director has tried potray genuine sense of feel by depicting everything as much as much according to book .how can he. Could create feel of someone who proposes fermina after 51 years 9 months and four. Days at the time of her husband's funeral. .I must appreciate his movie because he is the one who dared to give faces to the character like florintina ariza . His love for life and his firm believe in himself finally bring fermina to him. Some of the lines from book were resonating in my head when. Character speaks their dialoque.
Its weak movie but.couragious effort to bring one of the greatest novel of 20th century into a celluloid.
train will reach to 33rd street in a few minute and I will rush to take number one train for columbia because empa party is taking place at radio perfecto . Here is the station.

JUST A THOUGHT

ts not worthwhile to stay abroad just for the sake for it . I am getting to be part of the place where is action is .in another words I am all set to go to India.

I wanted to stay here but at what cost . I wanted to be part of my parents last days of old age because they were part of my childhood days . I want. Complete the circle which is life . I find this circle is more fulfilling than than living as stranger in far away land . In a way I crave for family and its routine. Its daily trouble and worries . How long I am going to away from them. Economic security will come later.glory and other things can follow me but when my parents will pass away I will regret that in whole life . My mother always says that now I should come back , I came here. to study and now I must go back to fulfill my duties of life.
Its been a long time since I have been thinking
