"Agony Uncle'

Of late, i have been getting opportunities to be agony uncle to friends of mine.
its not that difficult to lend a patient ear to your friends problems. gives your Friend a lot of respite. they feel good as they get an opportunity to express, verbalize, share their problem with someone they think will listen to them, understand their situation and offer a solution. at times it gives them an independent third part view which they might have overlooked or might have thought was a biased solution. most importantly, it sh0ws that you are trustworthy and that your friend can confide in you. 

But at times i wonder how 'qualified' i am to play this 'role' to my beloved frieds. am i experienced enough... no, i don't think so...24 years of existence on this earth is nor sufficient for that. but so long as my friends feel relieved, i think its ok. i try my best only to give a different perspective to the problem and not a solution, for solutions to problems need to be found by oneself!!

Finally a proud owner of a Hobner 285.

I am finally a proud owner of a Hobner 285, my new guitar.
witht this i plan to start my voyage on the ocean of music.
hope i am able to do justic to it and it does not end up being another piece of furniture in my room

got this idea of christining my gutar from someone's blog, one ms. ranjita i suppose. She had nme it lenny. Lemme think of a good name...After all it too has the 5 senses of see(red and black finsh), touch(the fretboad n the strings), smell (the sweet smell of the wood), hear (the pleasant sounds i aspire to produce) and taste (of good music to was made to play)

The mirror

WOW (Words of Wisdom) by Rajneesh Bahtia (our dear RB)
1. Life is perception. There is no such thing as fact. Facts are accepted percptions. e.g the direction East is east because we accepted someone's perception that sun rose from east and that direction should not be called by some other name.
2. Team work, adaptability, passion for what u do... all it take to be successful.
3. Only those people are succesful who do the wrok before it becomes due
