The Perfect Pose and Poise!


Hey it's been so long!! Now I have decided that instead of writing long posts( which have to be planned), I will try to write whatever is going on in my head so as not to be absent for so long..

Today I saw Fatima Bhutto's interview at CNBC. I had seen her speech at Sydney's writers fest earlier, but today I was even more impressed by her charisma! She is the estranged niece of Benazir Bhutto, who lives in U.K and is vocal about the destructive politics happening in Pakistan.

You actually come across a handful of individuals who posses beauty with brains(I definitely do not find every second girl easy on the eye as some of my guy friends do :P). So coming back to Fatima, her speech was frank, spoken with style and aplomb which only true leaders posses, with excellent command over english, and if I were a guy I could have spend the time by just gazing at her.. ( I can imagine the jokes I may have to suffer for this line, but the truth is for all to see ;)

Also she shared my views on Pakistan, I guess she was speaking only the truth. She starts with facts and figures about Pakistan, degrading political situations, terrorist activities and gave the real picture.
Well there are very few people whom I start admiring so easily, and she is now in my list. In her interview she exuded positive aura, with her elegant smile in place and gave the perfect answers.

After that and some time spent(or wasted :-l) googling about her, I now have 2 books on my list of "Want to read" books ( 8:50 a.m. and Songs of Blood and Swords... The "should read" list is another story( which often remains forgotten)

Anyways, here is the link of her impressive speech for those of you in whom I generated an iota of interest Fatima Bhutto's Speech :)
Cheers,
Shaily

Don't ask the meaning of Life...Just Go and Define It!!

Ever tried getting drenched in the rain but didn't because of your new, spick and span jeans???????
Ever felt like standing up for yourself but just didn't because you were not ready for the situation???????

The point is never wait for things to happen. You are the creator of your destiny... you are THE child of destiny.............YOU DEFINE YOUR DESTINY...

Just go for the thing what you feel is right at that moment. Stand up against the guy who is rude to the elderly beside you....ask the shopkeeper for a printed receipt.......go for wacky streaking of your hair...........go for tattooing at the weirdest body part....dance and hop in the rain...laugh and howl at the worst joke you have heard......do it because your heart screams at you to do it ......


ps.....Do it now since as you grow older you start carrying baggage with you... baggage of job, baggage of being diplomatic to the shrewdest and most wicked ppl, baggage of dressing professionally, baggage of not being able to speak the truth because your own organization is involved.....!

Do it now since when you wake up next morning you can look at yourself in the mirror with pride, an air of individuality and no regrets because you did precisely what you wanted to do at that moment...!
