Ola Cabs - Moment of Truth

This cab services was highly recommended for being cost effective. So I took the switch today because Fastrack clearly is very expensive.

The car that came to pick me up was quite comfortable and well maintained.
But the notification that I will be charged double due to peak hours is a let-downer.
Chennai traffic adds to the agony. But that's not the driver's fault of course.

Now I need to know the final bill to pass the final judgement. Now for the Ola App -- Rate 5 stars? Or uninstall?
Aaaaaaaaand the moment of truth.. Uninstalled!!

P.S. by the way the bill was one and a half times what  Fastrack free!!!

An Open Letter to A Woman

Dear Ms. Precious,

You can't give up just yet. You are a living example of how one needs to have courage to make wrong decisions and more courage to take more wrong decisions. Considering this, statistics show that you are quite courageous.

What happens when you fall..when you get weak..when you worry..you solve nothing. These are experiences which make you, you. Look back and see would you want to change anything..anything at all. Why would you want to change anything when from being a meek and naive girl, you turned to being a woman who can take on the world, only because of these circumstances.

Get bold, my dear. Feel the fire within you turning into pure gold. You are sensitive to others' emotions. You are smart and intelligent. You are everything. You are not weak. Period.

Don't wait for the world to tell you their opinion of you. Even if they do its not worth a penny. Because only you know your circumstances and the reason behind each one of your decisions.

You are not a puppet. You can't be made to dance with your strings on someone else's fingers, no matter how hard they try. Trust me, they will fall. They always have. Haven't they?

You are the best at everything you do. You give your heart and soul to everyone and everything around you. You think so so much about others. But then you forget the most important person you need to think about. You! What about your health, your peace, your sleep, your happiness, your future?

Stop thinking for just few seconds. No, the world won't stop spinning. No, the sky won't come crashing down. No, they won't forget you. Nothing of this sort will happen when you stop worrying. Even if it does, trust me my angel, you are a Phoenix. You always rise and you will rise again. Stronger and much better, much much more special.

Start valuing yourself, my precious. Only then the world will. Wipe away those tears or cry your heart out. Do anything that makes you feel great. It's your life. They will judge you. They will smirk at you but it doesn't and shouldn't make any difference to you. Only one person's judgement and opinion about you matters the most. Baby, its yours.

Laugh. Laugh out loud. Scare the hell out of them when you are laughing. The whole world fears strong happy women. Because these women refuse to be taken for granted. They refuse to be snubbed and dominated. They are power. You are them. You are the greatest power of all times and the energy hidden within you can destruct or construct a whole new world. You choose, my darling.

Honey, close your eyes and look within. See how beautiful you are. Feel how your heart is made of gold. Feel how your soul is pure like drops of morning dew. Now open your eyes and look at yourself in the mirror. See the smashing beauty. See that head held high. See those pretty eyes. See that smile no one in the world can miss. See that glow on your face. Listen to the mirror smiling at you and telling you that "you my lady, are the most beautiful woman in the world".

You go girl. You shine. You shimmer. You rock. You are unique and unmatched. Trust me when I tell you, woman, you are the best.

With a thousand bows,
Me.

This is Love

The world rushed past
The stillness
Of those two pairs of eyes..
For them the moment had frozen..
Each blink seems like ages..
As the view is so beautiful..
Mirror of each other..
Seeing the souls...
Reassured..
This is love..

Illusions

She had everything
But then had nothing..

She basked in the light of the moon
She couldn't touch

She blinked at the twinkling stars
She couldn't reach

She looked in those pair of eyes
And wondered
Why she couldn't see herself

In this world of illusions
She was real but...
