It truly is a Wonderful life!!!!

Just completed watching this 1946 classic English movie “It is a wonderful life” by Frank Capra. It immediately struck a chord with me. The movie was refreshingly invigorating. Mr. George bailey and his wife Mrs. Mary George bailey deserve a Special mention.

It's a Wonderful Life - was nominated for five Oscars without winning any, but the film has since been recognized by the American Film Institute as one of the 100 best American films ever made, and placed number one on their list of the most inspirational American films of all time.

So here I go to blog about it after a long hiatus from my blogging space.

Are you tired of your regular life? Do you think life is not giving you more ? Do you think your efforts are not being recognised? Or are your friends, family and relatives insinuating you? You think you had enough of hardships and you are in no mood to take these hardships any longer ? Do you wish you were not born at all in such a world? (I also feel the same….:-)…..)

Dhan te nan…..ta ra ra ….dhan te nan….

Just for a moment assume that you are not in this world. Imagine how this world around you would have been had you been not there?

Yes you heard it right.

Step out of your shoes and see how the world moves without you. Count on the things that you would miss. Imagine how lucky you are to step into all those lives of your family, loved ones and friends and change them the way their lives’ are today.

Had the character named Vamsi not been created in this world
• a mother would have cooked any vegetable of her choice (Our daily fight starts here)
• A sister would have no brother to collect her gift from her brother on the eve of rakhi (this year my sister tied a gold rakhi…24 carats gold..phewwww..i was left awestruck as I could not gift her reasonably)
• A friend would not have someone to listen her and attempt to make her dreams come true
• A Shali would have picked another buddy to hang around for new movies (It has been quite a longtime that we went to a movie though)
• A Sravan would not have a person who takes his words with highest regards (even though at times I pretend to argue with sravan just to see how it looks to be on the other side of the argument ,but I give it a thought before sleeping that night..bcoz he is always right )
• A Lucky would not have known how does a “Boy with no bad habits” be like
• A Hasham would have got some other buddy to prepare for his GMAT exam
• An Amit would have had his books intact with him.(I misplaced his books somewhere, have to replace them)
• A Ravinder@bangalore would have spent his STD mobile call duration with some special friend of his (Dude always tries to pump up my spirits)
• A Sushmi would have no friend to inform every time she moves in and out of Hyderabad to US
• A Raghu would have another friend who calls him for all festivals (Poor chap I never called him till date since the time he left to US. He always do’s the Honours for me)
• A tenant would have known how rude his landlord would be for not switching off the Motor after the water tank is filled
• A Balu would not have some one to help him with his Online movie tickets for first day first show ticket.
• A Raj would have had a courteous friend.
• A Nabee would have no one to pull his leg in midnight chats
• A Swathy would not have someone to ping her at midnight 1 AM IST (while it’s a busy peak day time for her in US)
• A venky would not have someone to file his IT returns in Hyderabad (he asked me only once though)
• An SBI credit card lady would have missed a contact number to dial every day as part of her daily ritual (She has been bugging me for the past 1 month daily)
• A Neighbor would not have known how patient his fellow neighbour would have been even though his car was bumped once which costed him heavily on his pockets
• A Sony ericsson mobile service fellow would have been happy to miss a disgruntled customer (My mobile display is switched off just after 3 months of replacement …)
• ….list unending.

It is because of people like the above that I feel I am worthy enough to fail and learn along with success in my life. Thanks every one.

    Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose
