WG SPECIAL EDITION 13 - WHEN I LOOK INTO THE MIRROR I SEE..

#13 - WHEN I LOOK INTO THE MIRROR I SEE.....
------------------------------------------------

The entries in the previous editions (from the very first one last June) were such a wonderful steady source of inspiration, wisdom, precious insights, and fun. We have achieved far more than we have sought or expected with this writing game. Kudos and thanks to everyone who contributed to its immense pleasure, delight, and fun.

Here's another one to nudge your minds with. :-)
============================================

when I look into the mirror I see..A happy reflection :) (Savy)

..next time when I will look into the mirror I will remember you...:)) (Shrawan)

When I look into the mirror, I wonder, how much of the truth does it speak. Does it show me all my faults or does it hide? Does it appreciate my good and magnify? (Phoenix)

... a FOOL! (LP53)

myself.. (Busybee)

When I look into the mirror, I see the chocotale marks left on it by my kiddeos... and go looking for the rag... LOLOLOLOL... (Jitu)

I look at that beautiful back ground :D (Naveen)

...god grace..n thank him for hu n wht i am :) (Bobby)

When I look in the mirror I see a mischevious ,intelligent and good looking girl staring right back at me !! (Frenchita)

When I look into the mirror I see that I AM THE CUTEST OF THEM ALL ;) Love. (Divya)

WHEN I LOOK INTO THE MIRROR I SEE..... Me & My Dreams :-) (Envisage)

when i look into the mirror,i see...
a small me
a poor me
a silent me
but an enthu me
above all,
a fighter me. (Manini)

When i look into the mirror ... i see a happier Sumit. (Sumit)

I see myself and wonder if it was the same person who was a lot thinner and was even lighter than now.. but then i say to myself.. "Not bad, after all!!!" (Kamesh)

when i look into the mirror...i see.." RAMBO -minus the machine gun and ofcourse....the muscles..."...:D :D :D (Imran)

When I take a fleeting look at the mirror and decide to give it a skip... I remember your post and take a second peek just to have a look... and i see someone with a twinkle in her eyes looking straight back... I smile and tell her... "Ok. Next time I am at ellen's I'll tell her about you." And she smiles back at me.:) (Jitu)

a person who needs to slim down a little more, increase her sense of style a little more & improve the frills here & there a little more :D :D :D :D :D (Sindhu)

I see a very capable person who does not live up to expectations and capabilities due to laziness and procrastination ! (Vrij)

When i look into a mirror.... "I have to be revived with smelling salts and splashings of water." (Khalid)

WHEN I LOOK INTO THE MIRROR I SEE ... nothing but 'the virtual me'... as no one even me also} can see 'the real me'... (AmitMakwana)

when i look into the mirror i see.....a person who i know very well. (Rekha)

WG SPECIAL EDITION 12 - THE GREAT VICTORIES OF LIFE ARE OFTEN..

THE GREAT VICTORIES OF LIFE ARE OFTEN.... just around the corner. :):):)
- Great Victories of life are - just those small ones. Our desire for them and our endeaver to achieve, make them great.:) (Jitu)

.....are the small everyday ones!!! (Morpheus)

...often forgotten... (LP53)

..the stepping stones of greater victories. (Naveen)

The Great Victories of life are often
- those that are won against the great evil called TEMPTATION. They are 'great' because you have exerted your will power over it. They are victories because you end up making the right choice.They are most worthy of notice because they are fought with the enemy within yourself, i.e. your own temptation. (Samyukta)

THE GREAT VICTORIES OF LIFE ARE OFTEN....Ignored. (Mini)

The Great victories in life are often ... achieved alone (or leave you alone). (Sumit)

The great victories of life are the ones we fight within ..such as hate , greed , lust and fear .. no victory is sweeter ... (Frenchita)

The Great Victories of life are often.....unspoken...only felt...such as LOVE. (Bobby)

THE GREAT VICTORIES OF LIFE ARE OFTEN.... happens, while u r busy enjoying the hardwork it takes!
done by common man.... with common things.... and people think afterwards...He is an extraordinary ONE!!! (Chakoli)

THE GREAT VICTORIES OF LIFE ARE OFTEN... relative. (Busybee)

The great victories of life are often, the earliest ones. The time we started to walk upright on two legs, when we started to use voice to communicate, when we started to use our thumbs and hands,like no other creation of God does. After that all the victories are mere extensions of what we learnt in the first 6 to 7 years of life. (Phoenix)

great victories of life are often ...small ones apparently but potentially big :) (Savy)

THE GREAT VICTORIES OF LIFE ARE OFTEN.....SEEMINGLY THE GREAT DEFEATS OF LIFE..... (Rekha)

WRITING GAME - SPECIAL EDITION #11 - IF ONLY..

Friends have asked me if the Writing Game we had last June could make a come-back stint someway and sometime soon. I thought bout it and realized that having such a game where people come together to play and share is indeed an enriching experience. So in honor of those who have posed that question and for us to see each other again here, I'll make a Special Edition with this writing.

The same guidelines work in this edition but this time no restrictions on the number of lines. The only concern will be the o3 server..... I hope it does not dampen our enjoyment of the game with its uncooperative nature.

By Vani's request, here are the Guidelines:

- I will be posting a particular yet an
INCOMPLETE THOUGHT in the blog.
- When you see this, REWRITE IT in a way you want it
to show or be read.
- No limits to its length. Let the creative juices flow.
- No quotes or famous lines but just YOUR own thoughts.
- Your messages will then be POSTED IN THE BLOG.
After you have placed it in the Comment Section.

Here it goes, folks.....

WRITING GAME SPECIAL EDITION #11 - IF ONLY.....


If only... I had a trailer, I'd go on a road trip round the country with buddies...cross the islands to Boracay. :-)) Lots of sun, sea, and sand! (Sunshine)

"If 0nly, I knew what exactly I want in Life instead of Everything" ;) (Lust4Life)

if only i knew when my glass would be full n spilling n I shall be doing all that I should.... (Savy)

If only... I wud be fair to life rather than expect life to be fair. (Navin)

IF ONLY..... I had known,what life had to offer before I came into this world. (On uncle's letter) - If Only..... I can understand the meaning behind it n Implement it n make make my life fruitful/joyful. (Mini)

If only I was more focussed , I would have achieved much more in my life! (Frenchita)

IF ONLY - I had tons of money to indulge in a cruise to Alaska - book a suite at the Al Burj, go on a trip of the Palace on Wheels and take up a villa in switzerland. That's all i want! :) (Jojo)

May be i can add...:)
If only... O3 works without a hitch... our lives would have been a bit different at least.:D:D:D:D NO retyping comments, No reposting posts, No invisible posts, No exchange of commenters' ids. :D:D:D My journey at o3 would indeed have been smoother.:) (Jitu)

Lols! This got me laughing, Jitu. :-D ---But, folks, let me put this on record -- Jitu helped me restore my missing blog. This wonderful person does not only write beautifully but has a big heart. :-)

WRITING GAME - Edition 9 LIFE IS NOT MEASURED..

Thought #9 - LIFE IS NOT MEASURED..


Birthdays lead us to think about life – what has gone past, what is in the present, and what is hoped for in the future. What we truly have though is the present. It is here that we build our tomorrows armed with the lessons of our yesterdays. So maybe now we have formed our own impressions about life – of what it is and what it isn’t. Your take, my friends.
***************************


Life is not to be measured but lived, good and bad times will make way for each other so we should try to enjoy and look to learn from both. (Sumit)

LIFE IS NOT MEASURED...in terms of size and personal achievements, but LIFE is measured in terms of efforts to perform and to excel! (AmitMakwana)

Life is not measured but Experienced . (Amita)

Who says. life is measured in birthdays, anniversaries, boyfriends,...:D (LostPatrol)

life is not measured but lived to the hilt..thats what true life is about :-) (Thisisme)


Life is not measured but lived by understaning and realising the importance of evolution at each and every front of life be it mental or otherwise----. (Mann)

not by the years in life......but by the life in your years
:D not mine...somene else's...I liked it a lot :) (Sindhu)

ife is not measured...
across its Breadth, but its Depth is more important. (Sharad)

life is to be measured and savoured ..bit by bit. (Frenchita)

Life is not measured.. in the number of years gone by, it is measured in moments of self realization. (Samyukta)

...because it's infinite. (Jay)

life is not measured by the breaths you take but by the moments that take your breath away :) Divya)

Life is not measured by riches, success, trophies, titles......
but by the times you smiled and felt joy
do a tap dance in your heart! (s)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE:
I will be coming up with the final edition of thoughts (#10). I hope that everyone who came since DAY ONE will come for the FINAL GAME to close it with me. Thank you. -ellen :-)

WRITING GAME - Edition 8 IF I COULD CHANGE ONE THING..

THOUGHT #8 -- IF I COULD CHANGE ONE THING -- THAT WOULD BE

The subject is courtesy of a dear friend, Morpheus. He thinks that this could be a good thought to nudge our minds with. I think it's a very good idea. In fact, there are a couple of things I myself would prefer to have 'changed' right now, if I could. :-) Okay, dear people, let's do this!

And I'm not going to forget to greet (repeatedly Lol!) all birthday celebrants for this month of JUNE! A HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! MAY GOD BLESS YOU! :-) May joy and gladness be yours not only this month but all of your lives.
------------------------------------------------------------------

(Thisisme): my temper and my too much of a giving attitude.. should learn to b a taker at times too.. :-)

(Saaya): IF I COULD CHANGE ONE THING - THAT WOULD BE ....My perfectionist, tempermental , neat freak , choosy attitude ....People find it difficult to cope with :) )

(Navin): IF I COULD CHANGE ONE THING - THAT WOULD BE
oder Peoples attitude...bcoz I m perfect..well almost....
....on a more serious note...I guess my take it easy policy :D:D:D

(Sharad): My temper and my fluctuating state of mind like Pal mein tola, pal mein masha. :-)

(Phoenix): If I could change one thing...that would be human tendencies for hatred.

(Taira): everything is destined by the almighty and whatever happens was supposed to happen. Nevertheless, I would like to change few things about myself..... am more of a trusting person and get taken for granted always.... wish i cud at times enjoy being a reciever and get pampered always, instead of being a giver all the times.....and my blunt attitude, which causes wrath at times shudnt be so bcos i say things as i see them.....beyond the actual picture; which people mistake it for being totally rude.... a negative but i feel its a positive for me bcos my conscience is clear about myself and my thoughts....
cheers :))

(abx): that would be .........destiny.

(Janu): F I COULD CHANGE ONE THING, THAT WOULD BE...
double standard n hypocrisy from the ppl.

(AmitMakwana): IF I COULD CHANGE ONE THING -- THAT WOULD BE... terrorism, by converting it into simply love!

(Lust4Life): If I Could Change One Thing - That Would Be "Not To Let Go The People Who Love Me"

(Bronel): IF I COULD CHANGE ONE THING - THAT WOULD BE a person named BRONEL.

(Decentmonkey): If I could change one thing.. it would be removal of discrimination of any kind..

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket (Osho): If I could change one thing it would be my wife.Any takers.She feels the same about me.

(Sur): my always-so-confused-MIND!

(Jay): ..me.

(Divya): IF I COULD CHANGE ONE THING -- THAT WOULD BE THE WORLD....AND MAKE IT A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE IN!!

(Sunshine): Hi! Yup, a few things could need some changing, not just one. Like -- superiority, inferiority, jaded minds, weakness of character, fearful hearts, etc. The list would be too long. To sum up, I guess it would fall into the criteria of NEGATIVISM. I can't stand negative people, they snuff out the joy of living.

(Amita): IF I COULD CHANGE ONE THING - THAT WOULD BE My Bad Habits

(Zaina): if i were to change one thing..then it'd be our world..for the better.

(Samyukta): If I could change one thing - that would be my famous temper. I lose it at least once a year!!I wish I could reduce the frequency and then one day totally control it so that I don't lose it ever!

I will not change my CAT! ( you stole it?) (LostPatrol)

For June 22....

LIFE IS NOT MEASURED…..

WRITING GAME - Edition 7 NEXT TIME I WILL..

We tend to overlook important things in our life. We behave so utterly oblivious of everything else but our own comfort and needs. Sadly we often skim through the fact that our behavior or misbehavior does affect people around us. Until one day when the consequences hit us hard and bad we face up to our wake up call and say ---

WRITING GAME - Edition 6 - HAPPINESS IS...

THOUGHT #6 - I KNOW THAT LIFE IS QUITE FLAWED BUT
STILL I SAY THAT HAPPINESS IS..

Happiness is not elsewhere its in self.. we just have to uncover it. Happiness cannot be gained.. it can only be realised. (Morpheus)

HAPPINESS IS when you believe you are beautiful.
HAPPINESS IS also Relative like Work done is accomplishment.
Accomplishment is happiness. (Mini)

.. but still happiness is in my control to a extent.. first I need to choose to be happy.. then count the blessings and be grateful for what I have instead of being miserable for my desires.. (Decentmonkey)

.. always around the corner waiting for the green signal from me, moment i am through the pain, i will welcome HAPPINESS! Amit Makwana)

I know that life is flawed, but still i say that happiness .............
shall be the satisfaction, before i sleep, that i improved upon the legacy given unto me, even if it be by a very small bit
and while doing so:
was able to share whatever i could
had compassion for the fellow being
felt empathy for the deprived
spread even an ounce of laughter everyday
was able to reciprocate the affection rendered unto me
Gave it my best shot, howsoever hard the going. (Khalid)

I KNOW THAT LIFE IS QUITE FLAWED BUT
STILL I SAY THAT HAPPINESS IS ....... what makes the ride worth pursuing. (Amita)

I KNOW THAT LIFE IS QUITE FLAWED BUT STILL I SAY THAT HAPPINESS IS.......
finding pleasure during this journey of life and learning to enjoy it and accept it & be a part of it - even with its flaws :) (Divya)

"...playing with your dogs by the lakeside".
"...what you experience from fulfilling your needs as well as of others." (Jay)

Life doesn't always hand us a bowl of roses, true. It is flawed and we are surrounded by imperfections. But we can always aspire for happiness in small doses despite being in the midst of trials. For me, happiness can be a quiet moment by the foot of the stairs just watching my little niece play with the puppy. (Dierdre)

Happiness is how u feel when u get something u desired and u've worked for :) (Sharad)

I know that life is flawed, but still i say that happiness.....
is accepting as it is :D:D:D (Navin)

I know that life is quite flawed but still I say that happiness is ......
in knowing...
that you gave your best shot every time.
in realizing...
that you can bring a few smiles no matter what.
in the satisfaction...
that you did your best to leave the world, a little better than you found it.
in doing your part ...
in the mighty circle of life... with all your heart.
in living each moment...
and reveling in the company of his creations.
in feeling...
his love. (Jitu)

I know that life is flawed but still i think that happiness is .......
something that can found in small tiny things... its not something that can be searched at the Perfect places or situations...anything which is perfect is actually an illusion.. So Happiness lies in living this falwed life with a Happydent smile and a Ifectious optimism and Love!...
Happiness lies when u can proudy accept that inspite of the flaws that life has ... u were ..and are able to enjoy and utilise it to its fullest.. by living every nano second without complaining! (Firefly)

KNOW THAT LIFE IS QUITE FLAWED BUT STILL I SAY THAT HAPPINESS IS.....
when you get to know what life is, and being optimistic for what the life gives you. (Anil Kumar)

Happiness is like a bright rainbow in the cloudy sky. (Abx)

I Know That Life Is Quite Flawed But I Still Say That Happiness Is “ Consistently a ConsCious ChoiCe” !! (Lust4Life)

...but I am absolutely convinced that "LIFE IN ITSELF IS NOT FLAWED" RATHER IT IS OTHERWAY AROUND-- "LIFE IS PERFECT IN ITSELF" !!!!
These are our own inbilities depending on our surroundings while we grow up, that make us to percieve life as flawed---. (Mann)

Happiness is a feeling inside, doesnt have to wait for a moment to happen...
a famous quote that I remeber...
Happiness is nothing more than good health and a bad memory. (Chakoli)

finding satisfaction & contentment with whats available on hand! Not easy...but not impossible too! Sindhu)

Knowing that tommorrow will be better. (Sumit)

...so much happiness here..let me take some, plz..:D LostPatrol)

Happiness is knowing that I belong here – in my world, life, and to myself! That no matter how I may seem to others, it is what I think of myself which truly matters and what moves me forward to my fate or destiny. (TomorrowsChild)

Happiness is in the simple things in life.
The cool breeze on a hot sweaty day. A beaming smile on a crowded train. The first smell of the monsoon rains.
Happiness.. aha.. how we all desire it.
And right now happiness is in hearing my mobile beep with my special one's text message.. Aha.. happiness... (Aj)

THOUGHT #5 - ONE THING HAS BECOME QUITE CLEAR TO ME…..

One thing has become quite clear to me.....that if I don't live my life on my own terms it would simply wash away and leave me with regrets but then I'll cope. Secondly, if I trust people to be good, they will be. There might be exceptions and these could hurt me but that too is one of life's lessons. You have a good idea in the blog. Thank you too for your wishes, I celebrated my birthday this week. (MeThink)

ONE THING HAS BECOME QUITE CLEAR TO ME….. that life is going to be unpredicatble and i have to live with the uncertainty, but i am confident enough to live my dreams... (AmitMakwana)

ONE THING HAS BECOME QUITE CLEAR TO ME...I can get anything I dream of, what all required is - just the Honest efforts (dedication, hard work etc all would come for free along with these honest efforts)!! (Anil Kumar)

ONE THING HAS BECOME QUITE CLEAR TO ME...that you get the pie when it is destined. aspiration & perspiration do stand with lots of undisputed importance - but fate, "timing", surrounding circumstances, play a vital role. So move on, keep on putting sincere efforts, be loyal to what your soul says ! (Blogesh)

.. that 'This can never sink' Titanic can sink !.. and miracles do happen ! (Decentmonkey)

One thing has become quite clear to me...
whether i want or not life won't wait for me.
it moves with it's own pace
it has it's own mind.
if i can't find beauty in the way it is,
i might as well be blind.
as this fog clears,
and shows me the way,
let me resolve to love life every day. (Jitu...feelings)

one thing is clear to me and that is that i am the best.
i desperately look for competition...sometimes i feel i have found some...but then the fellow proves he/shez as dumb as the others!! (Idiot)

ONE THING HAS BECOME QUITE CLEAR TO ME THAT I WANTED TO BE ON O3 AND I AM HERE! (Humanbeing)

One thing has become quite clear to me...that....
ppl dont stop for me even if i really care for them today tomorrow and always. (Bronel)

...is that my spectacles have to be cleaned. (Jay)

ONE THING HAS BECOME QUITE CLEAR TO ME...IT'S NOT BIRTH AND DEATH THAT DEFINE THE BOUNDARIES OF LIFE...IT'S THE LIMITS OF THOUGHT THAT DO...SPREAD THEM FARTHER AND YOU HAVE BIGGER LIFE... (Sridhar)

...that birth and death are not of my choice; but between them, I have.. (Lostpatrol)

ONE THING HAS BECOME QUITE CLEAR TO ME...
THAT LIFE IS A JOURNEY WHERE U MEET SO MANY PEOPLE ON THE WAY,SOME MAY COME NEAR AND SOME MAY NOT. BUT NEVER BE EMOTIONALLY INVOLVED, YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU HAVE TO WALK ALONE AGAIN... (Janu)

ONE THING HAS BECOME QUITE CLEAR TO ME…....when the going gets tough,the tough get going....never be bogged down by difficulties in life....there's always the hope of seeing light at the end of the tunnel :) (Deeps)

one thing has become clear to me ...that Life throws the biggest of surprises ur way..when u least expect them.. :) (China)

One thing has become quite clear to me....its always my choice and my decision. (Navin)

what has to happen will happen....all you can do is do your best and leave to God the rest! And once done....stop worrying about it....because the events after it aren't in your hands anymore! :)
And I agree with DM too...Miracles happen! & How!
So maybe...I can also say...its become clear that God exists! :) Just a matter of you recognising him around1 :) (Sindhu)

One thing has become quite clear to me, the world is at its end. Because nobody cares anymore for the humanity. One thing has become quite clear to me, we can't blame our governments for attrocities, when we do not care to stop them from doing these attrocities in the first place!
One thing has become quite clear to me, that saying this doesn't make me a pessimist, it makes me a realist. (Phoenix)

That there is no constant in life.. but one.. change!! (Morpheus)
