I Love You, Cocktail

She has magic... She believes absolutely anything is possible. She thinks we can do anything.

She makes me want to sweep her away from any tough situation, to wrap her in my arms and keep her safe. Everyday.

Today you are rolling another beautiful year to add into our life with new wishes and hopes.

It sounds so trite to say the last 5 years have been blinked away, but it most definitely feels as though they have. I blinked and we are into Love. I blinked and we are into eternal bond. I turned around to cook dinner and we completed 2 years. I just slowly focusing on career to give more happy and we had a handsome cracker in our life.

I still remember we are about to go movie and while thinking, we already moved into new home and completed my sister marriage as well, by the time i realized we already completed 3 years

Of course, what I’m neglecting here, are the million hugs and “I love you, Cocktail”. Each one of those is etched into my soul and though they are fleeting – they are the most special because they mean she feels loved, she feels cared for and respected.

A quick note to my birthday girl:

My Sweet Heart,

When I First Saw you, I was so taken by your appearance, Saree and those chocolatey expressions(while we talk,... akaa histronics), I couldn’t bear to look away.

I now find myself having a great experience. While you have grown from a college pass-out to an independent little treasure you are now, I have often held my breath, hoping I would know when to hold your hand and when to stand behind you with a bunch of love which always shown in different responsible forms.

When I look into your eyes, I see possibilities along with love towards us. And that is magic...

The kind of magic I will bottle and do my best to sprinkle over you as you sleep each and every night. You can’t put a price on that kind of faith in the world.

During this last year, I have seen the most significant changes in you. As these are tremendous milestones, they seem rooted in the heart. What I am witnessing now is the growth of your mind, of your heart. You are learning compassion and empathy. You are learning to give, to hurt, to be you.

I am so incredibly proud of you who couldn’t come up with what she wanted for her birthday – who didn’t even ask ALL DAY when she could open presents and the one who was overjoyed to receive a small sign of love. I am in an overwhelming feeling of admiration about you.

You are so beautiful soul. From you I have learned a lot, I have experienced family, and I have evolved. I am a better person for having you in my life.

Happy, Happy Birthday... wishing you a million days that reflect the love towards you.

I love you with all my heart.

Blossoms of Love

I have been waiting for you and your love, hoping with thousands of eyes that you will come from veil and fill my heart with blossoms of Love

With millions of dreams, I am aspiring you.. can you accept me?.. My Life is a gift for you.. humbly excuse me and accept it my dear

Always u will be in my heart.. will you give me a chance to reveal my heart for you?...But you are saying that I am not a dream and I will not be yours, will not come to me even in dreams ... that's why i want to express my love and win your heart .. If you accept me then it will not be a crime and just think once "is it correct to leave me alone like this in pain?" ... just extend your hand to me once and try to reduce this special distance between us..promise you will never be unhappy

One truth is that every minute me and my thoughts are around you but your heart is not ready to believe it.

I will be always with you as your shadow.. may be you can't identify me because you are search for me who is already in you and with you forever.

Lovely Thoughts ... Don't Know where it leads toooooo

The extent of craziness and stupidity of me cannot be gauged when I am with you and you cannot imagine how much crazy and worried I am, when I am not with you.


Jealousy is very sharp in nature; it will hurt more rigid when you sense it more frequently on most respected ones. But Good thing about it is it will preserve some sweet memories in your life

H-1B Visas: Is it a 'Ray of Hope' for Indian IT Companies

This year’s April Fool’s day kept Indian techies busy since it was this day that the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration services (USCIS) had chosen to start accepting petitions for work permit H1B visas for the next fiscal year. This is something that a large number of IT professionals in India depend on to a great extent.

The programme for H-1B non- immigrant visas was introduced in 1990. This is where workers out of the U.S. possessing the required skills and knowledge are employed by U.S. companies on a temporary basis. Applicants need a bachelor degree in their preferred field, where successful applicants are sponsored by employers.

In 2012, 130,000 H category visas were issued by the U.S. authorities in India. However, the number of H-1B applications has been declining for the last couple of years. It was only a few months after June that the quota began to fill up. Yet the quota, according to industry experts, will take a week to fill up. Visas will be allotted through a lottery system. This lottery system was earlier followed by a large number of applications and the quota would get filled in just one week.

In 2013, from the information from reliable sources the quota of 65,000 was filled up on Day1. All the Indian software top giants are shocked with the new US yet to be implemented  policy stating not more than 30% of the workforce can be from India in the same organisation blah blah ..

Fingers crossed to see the results and consequences....
