My Friend ordered some Ayurvedic Medicines from a web site. Before placing the order she enquired that if they will be able to supply the medicines to her place. When she got a positive reply she went ahead with the order.
After two days she got to know the order status has been changed to “Shipped”. Hence she was waiting for the medicines to arrive. They said it would arrive within 15-20 days. When the medicines did not arrive even after 20 days; she wrote back to them. She got update saying it might be in transit and hence the delay.
Now it has almost been more than a month since she placed the order. No medicines received. She wrote back to the support link on their website, but no response. There are no contact numbers on the website. All she knows is that the center is based out of Bangalore.
Is there something can be done about this ? or just wait and watch is only thing left ?

“J” studies in first standard here. She used to love her school a lot; until few days ago.
She had issues with her class teacher. She did not like her. During her meeting with her principal she complained about her class teacher.
The teacher in turn scolded her. She made “J” realize that “You are not beautiful; No boy is gonna like you !! “
She did not celebrate her birthday in the class; She did not appreciate her computer project.
Now with the name of school “J” gets into tears. She says she is scared of Boys.
What good it has done making a six year old girl conscious about how she looks ? Isn’t it this age to think about games, flowers, paintings, toys, books and everything else other than looks , boys ?
Just wondering why the teacher wanted to tear off the innocence so quickly ? What purpose did it solve after all ?

I met the couple “P” & “M” recently. Both are exactly opposite.
“P” : Extremely health consicous. Reads Ingredients and Nutrition charts before buying a thing. Very regular in pranayama and yoga. No junk food and sweets. No alcohol either.
“M” : Extremely fond of Junk food. Taste of the food is above all other things. Loves to eat out. Does Pranayama and yoga m but given a chance she would love to skip them. They are mostly there to keep those extra kgs off. 
Do most of us see ourselves resembling to “M” ? 
“P” thinks - “Being the only man in the family , he has lot of responsibilities. I need to be healthy and fit to take care of all. Health is above all other things. Jaan hai to jahan hai “
“M” who had her own set of health hazards thinks- “Any way one day we are gonna die. Until then I want to enjoy life. I don’t expect to live too long and all. But I don’t want miss all the pleasures of life and have that life !! “
Hummm….I am confused. Don’t know who is right and who is wrong ?
Fortunately or Whatever I have met many people who eat everything, be happy and lead a moderately active life are healthy and fit.
Then there are those who eat healthy and have a active life and still struggle with health hazards.
I fail to understand.
Whether you should skip all those mouth watering food ( read masala dosa, samosa, chaats) and have something has no taste ( like whole wheat- dry roasted oats, dry skimmed milk powder swiss style museli, no sugar oat meal cookies, low fat cheese with roasted brown bread, salads ) ??
Or leave everything aside and believe in the funda that “A happy mind has a happy heart ”
What do you think ?

There was one time when I was one desparate girl who was trying to get into this I.T. Industry.
All I had was one goal to work for top notch I.T Giants. I loved playing with technology.
Finally I cracked that. I have been there and done that. Now being part of the system now I know what all happens inside I.T. The systems here and the crap work sometime that comes your way makes me sulk big time.
Despite of everything that I had to do to make a position here; today I don’t seem to enjoy what I am doing. I need a change. The I.T. as such does not seem to be attract me any more. I still do love technologies.
I have been looking for things that could motivate me. Nope I don’t want the self motivation and fundas. The bottom line is NOTHING IS EXCITING ME.
The questions keep haunting my mind these days -
Do I need a break ?
Do I need to sit back and relax for a while instead of getting worked up like this ?
What is that I would love to do ?
I am unable to figure out “That something different” I want to do !!
This scares hell out of me.
In the process I don’t want to land up in not doing anything or being failure in all I would try my hands at !!
Starting from scratch is okay with me ; but it should have tempo to keep me going.
How do I figure out what exactlly I want to do ?
Am I being wierd by thinking like this ?
Is is sheer stupidity to think of something else when you have a decently paid job ?
Am I being abnormal ?
Does anyone else goes through this ?
