Nomoreme

Blogging was out of my radar for a very long time. when HR was expressing his feelings or AD her proffesional lyf, during coll days, i never knew how this whole system worked. I was actually introduced to this when big D started marketing his blogs. Only then did I actually understand what this is all about. But i never thought i would be writing one. To be true i hated blogs. I hated the whole system of making your friend read something that happened in front of him. I hated when people badly wanted more comments for their blogs. Little did i know that there was a tottally different side to this. I now realiase that its all about "Expressing your thoughts" - expressing your ideas, expressing the way you wanted things to be, expressing something that was close to you. I never thought i would be doing this, i never thought i would be expressing myself here. Today when you look around blogging has become a very powerful tool. From Politicians to filmstars to Journalists to CEOs, everyone writes a blog today for their own reasons. If Shri Advaniji writes having votes in mind, Aamir khan writes to increase his fan following and market value, Amitabh Bachchan writes for the money bigAdda is going to give him and so does Rajdeep Sardesai who is paid well by Raymond for delivering some excellent blogs. Even though these may be the major motivations for them to write, they are able to strongly express themselves. I realise that i had a wrong notion. I reliase that I was thinking different, just the oppositte of what is ideal. I reliase that if i dont start now, i may never start. So i start.

i have often been questioned for the tittle nomore. my email id always had a nomore - nomoreme or nomoreganesh or nomorelakshman. I must admit that nomore is the copyright of someone else. It actually belongs to Shri Ajeet Dubey(who is also a AD) who had his email id has nomoreajeet. i adopted it initially coz i found it captivating. i thought it was interesting or it had some difference in it. but later on i found out that there was a meaning which nomore conveyed. it was no more what you actually thought it was. it was no more the scenario you wanted it to be. Now when i recall, for most of my friends/parents/institution/neighbours/ i was no more the person of their perceptions . i was nomoreganesh or nomorelakshman for what they had thought.

Over the years i would have come accross no more a million times. Both in my professional and personal lyf things are no more the way i thought it would be. I never thought i would loose touch with Jithu, Alex, Manoj, Dev (from skool just to name a few) in my lyf. Today except jithu i hardly have an idea what the others are upto. I have no clue where they are, what their contact numbers, are they working or studying, no idea. i never thought this would happen. In college ; this continued. Friendz -> great Friendz -> nomore Friendz. Reverse has also been true. never talk -> say hi -> say bye also -> finally friendz - nomore avoiding. "nomore" ism is not confined to friendz or personal lyf. I guess my profesional lyf gifted nomore ism to personal lyf.

But there are certain domains where nomore never entered.

FME has always been good to me except for a small fight which can be ignored.

RNKT changed from one zone to another. Constant after that.

ANN & AD oscillated always. ANN always went to exile zones until we had walks across mec . AD oscillated b/w - she should not have done this - gth ---> after all its AD na...

ARN; ABJ; JV - great inspiration. always helpful. cat playground would have been boring without them

All Cat buddies - except me all cleared cutoffs always :)

VSN - always negative ; always avoidable ; - lately started showing great signs of improvements

NVG has been maintaining his stature . Elegant and Introspective.

HR has always kept a low profile. But recently he has started keeping a very high profile. Started venturing into activities which i never thought he would.

Big D - i would like to quote my friend here. Big D would be my best friend in college; my worst enemy in college. he is sure to help you and he is sure to ditch you.

This is about me. The list mentioned above lacks many names. Many names without which the domain is only partially filled. didnot want to make my first blog extra long (aldready guess it is). I hope to write more blogs; however i will always try not to make my blog, a tool to tarnish the image of someone. I would like to conclude this by sharing something I have always believed in. "every relationship follows a sine curve". it has its ups n it has its downs and for this, I would like to quote a statement made by shri Advaniji in parliament (which he quoted from the Bhagavad Gita) during "the 26/11" debate

परस्पर विरोधे वयं पंचाम ते शतं !

अन्यही साकं वयं पचाधिकम शतं !!
