Make Up Your Mind

I Changed My Mind!

So these days Im munching alot of greens and leaves like a cow, cos I've cut down on carbs. At first, it was hard. But now I'm loving the salads and fish and soups etc. And it doesn't make you feel like you're suffering from a killer overdose like it does straight after rice/pasta! But I did notice the fresh choc cream bikkies in my office today and while my hands were stretching to the jar, my mind cussed me like a biyatch :( My mind said to me 'stop it right there Keshi u choc biscuit monster...do u wanna end up looking like a big momma in the making? your ass is getting there babeh!'. I was so pissed off and told my mind this as a reply 'mind your own business Mind! I will have this one today cos I deserve it and it's not like I'm eating 10 kilos of chocolate you jealous momma..it's only 2 bikkies so get over it!'...rolled my eyes and I had them for tea ;-). That's my reward for the week for being so good and sticking to my fitness plans so far. My mind can digest it, don't worry she's doing ok!


What's On Your Mind?
Now since I have stopped talking alot too *remember my recent post on resolutions* and have started to work on my Listening skills, I noticed that at home I'm not talking at all. LOL! Yesterday my sis said something to which I should have given a kick-ass answer but cos I'm concentrating on Listening these days, I stretched it a little too far and was still listening like a blockbuster dumbass! My mind suddenly told me 'Keshi are you dead? There's a person talking to you and is awaiting an answer you dingbat!'. I suddenly woke up from my Silence trance and replied to my mind 'why do you show off so much mind? I know you're awake even when I'm sleeping or having a super blonde moment...and I know you're trying to alert me but please don't act so disgustingly smart!'...and then I replied to my sis.


It's All In The Mind!
Isn't it strange how our minds always stick with us in every moment that we go through in life, no matter how big/small it is? It's almost like we live with another person in us, who's always alerting us, driving us, telling us things, stopping us from doing certain things, instructing us how to behave, giving us signals, yelling at us, laughing at us, pushing us, laughing with us, crying with us etc etc. Who or what is this Mind? When we say My Mind just like
My Mum, My Dad or My Car, does it mean each one of us have something living inside of us, guiding us in life? Conscience, Instincts, Thoughts, Opinions, Intellect, Consciousness, Reasoning, Judgements, Callings, Emotions, Connections, Plans, Dreams, Beliefs, Memories...they are all born and reside in our Mind. They may be medically proven as a set of chemical reactions in the brain but it's gotta be much more than just that. The body and all other organs can be touched and seen, but can the Mind be touched? Where is it and what makes it invisible? Can the body and mind survive in isolation? Do you have conversations with your mind like I do? Are you 2 good mates or do you fight alot?
Does your mind tell you one thing but do you do a totally different thing? Is your mind happy(/unhappy) with you? Are you racing with your mind and have you won(/lost) already? Share your minds here please. :)

And guys, you are always on my mind...I love ya all HUGS! This one's for ya Ishi - one of the finest humanbeings on Earth...welcome back my dearest friend!

I wouldn't want to give you a piece of my mind. ;-)

Seriously though, where do you find the time and energy to introspect, blog, comment and read other blogs!!!

Princess said...

hi kesh,

there is always a battle between my heart and my brain. But i guess whatever step I choose to follow turns out to the best step. ;)

La vida Loca said...

think we are ok..me and the mind. We fight, we make up and love and support too :)

Anonymous said...

yes i do talk a lot when i am alone.. sometimes it is just a conversation between my mind and my soul

and soemtimes i speak loud..

controlling our mind is the biggest and toughest think that we can do.. we might want to do one thing. but our earthly thoughts created by the mind makes us do something else..

it really needs lot of mental strength and conviction to control our thoughts and set them right..
as always great post keshi..

Nikhil Menon said...

hehe..awwwweesommme!! i loved tht pic- "whats in your mind??"..true in a lot of ways.. :)

the third one was jus brilliant too..well said!! :)

rainboy said...

me and "he" ( Consciousness)

we have our issues.But we love each other.

i love tennis for that reason too..(yep..i am one dirty mind) ;D

take care miss

stony said...

Managed to see the lamp in pic. :)

A psychiatrist drew two parallel lines on a paper and asked the patient what he saw on the paper.

The patient: It's a man and a woman fornicating.

Psychiatrist: You have such a filthy mind.

Patient: Why don't you curse the artist?

* Do you have conversations with your mind like I do?

Almost always.

* Are you 2 good mates or do you fight alot?

We debate a lot.

* Does your mind tell you one thing but do you do a totally different thing?

Sometimes.

* Is your mind happy(/unhappy) with you?

Unhappy.

*Are you racing with your mind and have you won(/lost) already?

Lost. Just cannot catch up with the mind.

Nice post with my fav topic.

Hemanth Potluri said...

hahahah lol with all those pics...:P....i know one kesh ...wats in ur heart just controls ur mind...if u r lot into trouble in ur heart it shows on ur minds and which comes out as a piece of frustration :(..

making up ur mind is very difficult process buddy..some times even a good thing told to other person may lead to negative thinking..i had personal exp's..with this issue...wen i tried to help my frnds they thought i was jealous of the other guy and yeh they mistook me and left..me...crap ..but the mind and heart could not take..so i told my heart to me positive to my mind...so i came up like this...they lost a good friend...i nver lost anyone..i am good and will be good all my life...who the fuck cares wat they think abt me...i dont give a goddam shit..i try to help...if they r lucky to listen to me and make up the mind fine for their lives if they think negative...hell with them....

omg ... i am being emotional now...have to control my mind..and make to spread some cheers :)...i am like a joker in my office and i am happy for that... i make people laugh ..that's a wonderful gift i have and my mind is happy for that :P...anyways...u already know my heart and mind ..:)...being emotional does not help my mind anymore...be happy and make smiles spread :)...

urs..hemu..

Unknown said...

listen to my mind and soul often.
But one day when i dint lsiten to it.
I trusted a wrong person.I still rember.the day i saw pachu.Some instict said.He is goign to propose you and play with ur feelings and Ditch you.I just Laughed.That Day.It was in March.Now a days i speak a lott with my mind:)

Kelvy said...

ahhh so u on resolutions huh...heheh good to know that u r able to keep up to the healthy food regime....

u know wat, i end up speaking to myself a lot and recently wen i went down to india on a short trip, my hubby was laughing and asking me wat do u talk to urself wen u r alone coz he caught me talking to myself so many times...heheh looks like i end up tellig things loudly to my mind wen it keeps givin me some kinda answers/questions and wat not... :P

Jeevan said...

Lol! The double meaning pictures ;)

After ending a mistake mind hurts more to tell why u gone ahead without listening ur mind. I think brain don’t teach nothing, its mind get everything to brain to store and serve as needed.

ishipishi said...

:) u got me smiling here kesh!

*grin* @ "choc biscuit monster"... i hear a similar voice in my head when i crave for ice cream! the "voice' is such a dear friend but i'm soooooo selfish :P I eat the damn ice cream anyway *sigh*

But kesh with u and rajbir so sure of the fact that I can if i put my mind to it....is reason enough to just get started instead of procrastinating...

@ listening vs. talking a lot...i believe effective listening makes u a better conversationalist. I'm told that I make a gr8 listener despite the fact that I do talk a lot...

like I said the "voice" in my head is a friend...a good one too. Helped me many times...kept me from making hasty decisions and gave me new perspective ... the times I've ignored it are the times I've messed up.

conversations with my mind ... it's an ongoing proccess...never ending :) ... so there we have this in common too :)

have a gr8 day kesh..and thnx again fr the dedication :) esp. with a post that I so relate too!

ishipishi said...

and oh... :) .. i was so busy reading the post, didn't notice the pics till after i posted the comment!

heh!! ... the second one had me grinning! :D

deepsat said...

nice one!! it is ok to reward your efforts at times ;-))

yes i do fight wid my neurons most of the times!! an ongoing conflict to achieve perfection at some level.
;-))

Sach1 said...

LOL! I am not sharing my mind but yep! we think alike (I know that)

muaahhhhh

Die Muräne said...

Whot? no pasta anymore?? Poooor Keshi!

Die Muräne said...

I fear I have a really filthy mind :D

Talking To My Soul said...

Mr. Inside The Cranium - yeah, I meant Trevor - spoke my mind. See Kesh, my mind speaks.

It also understands. See, it understood that what it was about to speak was spoken by someone else's mind.

It loves too. For, it loved what Trevor's mind said. Hates, of course. Hated that Trevor said it before I could. Cried thereafter and fought with it because it was late in reacting. I - sorry, my mind - can go on and on..

Great post, Kesh. Loved it.

*smilez*

Cяystal said...

LOl!
You dirty dirtyy woman!
You put such pics up!
I was busy wonderin' whats wrong with Kesh to put the first pic up! :P

And wow..I agree with you.
But I am nt confused with this most of the times..(exceptions are always thr)
I'm a brain person! ;)

And I s'pose its better to be one! :D
And the second pic was like Rotflmao!

Tarun said...

I have had these kinda converations as well...
It mostly concerns with getting up early/sleep more.
But then few of these arguments are won by me and some by my mind.

My mind is never wrong though.

India won. :D

Whitesnake said...

Me mind is what makes things happen!

That is a resolution within itself!

Vishesh said...

:) i talk a lot to myself too...lol @that pic :) I don't think anyone saw the lamp first :)

AmitL said...

Hi,Keshi...ah,you're getting the hang of it,huh-munching on greens and leaves..To make it more tantalizing,try adding some 'chat masala'on them,alongwith a touch of lemon.I do that whenever I feel I'm bored of the 'ghaas poos'(Green veggies are termed thusly,by people who don't like to diet).And,ha-yes,you deserved the two bikkies,surely.*rolling eyes*(Sigh-your habits are so catching)
-----
The human mind-indeed a most facinating subject.So much in our daily life is directed by it.That's why,when it's tired,we end up either having a headache or falling ill,which gives it a lil rest.
----
Re. the question-well,yes,I do have such conversations with my mind...but,I do wonder-is it my instinct talking or the mind?Coz usually,I follow my instinct which guides me to the right path.*touchwood*.
----
BTW,don't worry-you're not even close to Big/Yo Mamma,who is so fat,that:(Herein comes a joke)
-When she goes to the zoo the elephants throw her peanuts.
-When she gets in an elevator, it HAS to go down.
-People jog around her for exercise.

Cheerio!

Arjun said...

jeez girll!!!
That dirty mind pic... wow!!
My minds eye refuses to see the lamp!!

Faith Lasts said...

Hmmmm..keshi girl, The questions you are coming up with ..I like I like ;)

in all these years I have come to realize that I cannot control my mind, with my mind atleast..
And the mind needs to be tamed, thats for sure, otherwise it will go on affecting the body as well!!

So I take refuge in the link between the mind and body- The Breath ,
you know that awesome example of the mind as the kite,
and how it can be rightly directed by the breath , the string!

yeah 'my' mind troubles 'me' a lot, which just reminds me that I am not the mind!
and then I take over, and understand that my mind needs some loving and so I just let it be and set it free !!

yayyyy, my mind is my baby, and I will take care of it :))

Thankyou Keshu
Hugsssss

Anil Sawan said...

congratz for ur diet :-)

the second pic was awsm!

havnt really "observed" my mind as such. maybe i cud try but i really dont think i wud be successful! i went for the "art of living" course once. and they told be to observe my breathe.. and i was thinking "wtf m i doing here" lol.. tell u wut, the course was really good!

Krithika said...

hahaa at choc bit..nice one!
on a serious note,
i always think tat i see my mind when i look in the mirror :)

rantravereflect/ jane said...

heee.. is it ok if i prefer 'MAKING OUT' with the mind :)??
;)
making up is too bohring :)
lol..

Do you have conversations with your mind like I do?

Yeah Great conversations.
Me: hey, you think i should do that..
My Mind:No.
Me: Yeah, I'll do it then!

Are you 2 good [Photo]mates or do you fight alot?

Like i told ya, we make out a lot, yeah so we 'MATE'.. and yeahhh, while mating, ya see the blood n the scratch marks a lot.. fighting is our fav pastime :)

Does your mind tell you one thing but do you do a totally different thing?

Ha.. same as answer 1.


Is your mind happy(/unhappy) with you?

Happy or not, we live together, so we have try n have lots of fun together: that' s the deal :)

Are you racing with your mind and have you won(/lost) already?

It's win-win for both of us.. sOMEWHERE DOWN THE LINE, We reach a compromise :)
i win some, my mind wins the others :)

rantravereflect/ jane said...

abt the cookie monster, LOL :)
ya deserve that cookie!

lke i deserve my banana chips that mom got from back home :):))

n no, by bananas, i mean the fruit:) not all mothers are that generous to give ya bananas of teh other kind ;)

Saim said...

no chocs 4 u...*sigh*
me n my mind r in perennial chatter box mode, u knw its one of d reasons am accused by humanity of speaking a bit less than usual sumtimes:D

Meghna said...

Okay.....this is nice and interesting...

I always fight with my brain....we r not really on good terms, u knw :P

My hrt says I wannna have loads of chocolates every day but my brain (ahhhh....the #$$&&- insert anything appropriate) says that I should jst keep shut and turn away...

And now I ask u...who'm do I lstn to??/

Prakhar said...

I think its Heart Vs Mind...for me they are mostly not in sync..nd that creates problem..nd hurts others..

So, I dun allow them to go in fightin mode...I listen to one..nd stick to it..m better off these days :)

Prakhar said...

btw.. I too reward myself with cookies...chocolates ..and all the FAT containg things :D...nd that time...its all heart..m quite a sweet tooth :D

Arv said...

Hiya,

Glad you beat your mind and had that treat of bikkies...

I loved that listening part... I can relate to many moments like that too...

Yes hun, I do think abt that mind at times... I talk a lot to my subconscious though :)

you have a good night's sleep da.. take care.. cheers...

SMM said...

Ha ha Keshi you spoke my mind...my mind as far as I am concerned is a completely different person. its like another person inside my head. Sometimes I have fights with it also and at times there is a running commentary going on in my head :P

Unknown said...

well.. now this is an interesting post.. hehe

i always find it hard to make up my mind.. dont know why.. but its been like that for a long while.. i cant seem to decide.. or choose rather.. and sometimes( rather most of the times ) it has put me in a spot..

i always seem to have this conflict.. i think its the mind vs the heart game.. sometimes i listen to what my heart says.. and my mind goes.. dont make me say i told u so later on..

whats on ur mind.. reminds of the song from salaam e ishq.. babuji.. it starts with whats on ur mind.. and anil kapoor's jaw fallin off..lol..
anyways.. whats on my mind.. is as good as anyone's guess..

Rià said...

Wow!where do u get such interesting thoughts babes!! Ok now coming to the answers. I feel me and my mind r mostly in tandem with each other, however at times i do end up doin something completely opposite to what my mind had asked me to do!! I do tht to challenge my mind. Yeah we hav our small talks and i often challenge my own thought process coz its not necessary tht whatever it say is or rather has to b right! :D

Aneesh said...

Can the body and mind survive in isolation?
Well, I guess yes, that's what happens with Alzheimer's disease.

Do you have conversations with your mind like I do?
Mmm, everyone has

Are you 2 good [Photo]mates or do you fight alot?
Sometimes no, but most of the times, yes.

Does your mind tell you one thing but do you do a totally different thing?
Is it possible? It's our mind that tells us to do and not to do. It has also a positive and -ve part. It's the fight between these two parts and we may choose which one wins. It's always difficult to take the side of the +ve part.

Is your mind happy(/unhappy) with you?
I guess, its happy, at least most of the time.

Are you racing with your mind and have you won(/lost) already?
I have won a lot of times, 'N I've lost a lot of times. I don't think it is possible to win all the time.

Jay said...

I used to have conversations with my mind, but mostly I sit and talk to my imaginary friends now.

kiran sawhney said...

The pictures you have put are so interesting. In fitness, I know the importance of mind body connection.

Dan said...

I have to admit - I was tricked by the lamp, too.

Chocolate things are tough to give up. I found 4 homemade chocolate chip cookies on the kitchen counter. Now, they're in my belly.

I just need to walk them off if I'm going to eat them!

Have a good day.

Unknown said...

The Thing is so True... Did a no Carb whole day...and after a crappy argument ordered a Pizaa:) I love my mind! He treats me nicer than a lot of people I Know..

and btw..i officially have a dirty mind! all pics confirm that.

I'll try 2 be truthful said...

i wanna lose weight tooooo
arre i always have conversations with my mind , there's one part which knows whats right & the other tells me about the other side of it .like mind 1 sez " hey cute guy " mind 2 sez " what u leching?"

Phoenix said...

ive started to watch my food as well... i cant go yoga or exercise at all..coz i dont feel like ti but i do them whever i can but not in a routine... somehow i always loose motivation... but its nice to know someone else is trying to stay healthy as well... i think thats a motivtion enough for now :)

MARIA said...

It's all in The Mind... but Choose is OUR.
I wish you only good chose ...for your health and happiness.

Thank you for thought-provoking post.
With love
Maria

Hi Keshi

Did you know that there times when we feel hungry, but we are actually thirsty?

I think we all have MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder).

I know I can switch into a bitch very quickly. In fact, I’m in that brain mode now. It’s snowing here—or maybe I have a bad case of dandruff. I’m angry because we need nice days to finish a project.

People have good and evil inside of them. Our minds are at war with themselves all the time. If the evil side wins, we go the bad route; if good, we go the good route.

Sometimes, I take the bad route, and I love it! LOL

Priya Joyce said...

Yo Keshi, you are always on my mind too and an interesting take about what's on your mind.

I believe what's on my mind is always evolving but I hate it others have a negative mindset that's all.

Keshi said...

heyyy Ani!


** think its the mind vs the heart game..

yes we all hv that problem...but strangely most of the time, my heart and my mind seem to be in sync...thank God!

if ur confused Ani, always go with ur INSTINCTS...cos they r never wrong.


*HUGZ*

tnxx Ria babez!


**where do u get such interesting thoughts babes!!

from my MIND ofcourse ;-)



**I do tht to challenge my mind. Yeah we hav our small talks and i often challenge my own thought process coz its not necessary tht whatever it say is or rather has to b right


I agree...its a challenge, going with it or not.


But I firmly believe that INSTINCTS are never wrong...they r the natural map thats inbuilt to every human that'll always take us 'home'.

Keshi said...

heyy Aneesh!


**Can the body and mind survive in isolation?
Well, I guess yes, that's what happens with Alzheimer's disease.


:) not always. monks who meditate are sometimes able to separate the 2 from each other....conquering the mind.



**Do you have conversations with your mind like I do?
Mmm, everyone has

not someone with Alzheimer's or Dimentia!



**Does your mind tell you one thing but do you do a totally different thing?
Is it possible? It's our mind that tells us to do and not to do.


not really...sometimes out Instincts tell us to do one thing but we go and do something else...isnt it?




**It has also a positive and -ve part. It's the fight between these two parts and we may choose which one wins. It's always difficult to take the side of the +ve part.


interesting! so u reckon there's an angelic mind and a evil mind residing in us? then wut abt the neutral things we do?




**Is your mind happy(/unhappy) with you?
I guess, its happy, at least most of the time.

Good to know that Aneesh :)



**Are you racing with your mind and have you won(/lost) already?
I have won a lot of times, 'N I've lost a lot of times. I don't think it is possible to win all the time.

Well-said!

ty Jay!

** I found 4 homemade chocolate chip cookies on the kitchen counter. Now, they're in my belly.

**I love my mind! He treats me nicer than a lot of people I Know..

Keshi.

Keshi said...

ty Truthful!

if u wanna lose weight, then its an issue of MIND over matter...u CAN do it. Put ur MIND to it and start today :)

Like Kiran said, body and mind are connected when it comes to Fitness. First, u hv to set ur MIND to it and make sure ur gonna stick to it. A healthy mind leads to a healthy body. And good luck hun!


** " hey cute guy " mind 2 sez " what u leching?"

LOL ur so like me!


Keshi.

aMus said...

i liked this post .....

i talk to myself a lot..and i think the mind is what we truly are...and which noone else can see unless we choose to show it...

and those pics were quite a find..;)

Keshi said...

ty Phoenix!


** i cant go yoga or exercise at all..coz i dont feel like ti but i do them whever i can but not in a routine... somehow i always loose motivation...


ok I was like u too...before I was a gym junkie...and then I stopped and I started gaining weight. But recently I realised how gross my body was becoming and started to eat healthy and restart my usual exercise routine.


No Im not doing any rigorous aerobics etc like I used to do. Neither am I dieting...cos I hate dieting!


All Im doing now is

-take a 50min - 1hr walk/jog daily

-eat better and healthy (cut down on carbs, oily and sweet food - note: cut down doesnt mean not eat em at all...just eat smaller potions)

-eat more greens, veges, salads and seafood instead of rice, meats and fatty food

-walk whenever I can instead of drive

-stay DETERMINED


:) see...u gotta put your MIND to it and then u can do it. And I also like to MOTIVATE others cos its a motivation for me too :)


*HUGZ* all the best!


Keshi.

Keshi said...

Keshi said...

hey ty Bev! :)

**Did you know that there times when we feel hungry, but we are actually thirsty?


so that must be why I had a sandwich yday and was wondering why Im still 'hungry'? LOL!




**I think we all have MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder).


For sure! Im living proof for it!!!




**I know I can switch into a bitch very quickly. In fact, I’m in that brain mode now. It’s snowing here—or maybe I have a bad case of dandruff.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!



**I’m angry because we need nice days to finish a project.

get ur project indoors! ;-)


**People have good and evil inside of them. Our minds are at war with themselves all the time. If the evil side wins, we go the bad route; if good, we go the good route.


well-said! So there's an angel and a devil inside us?




**Sometimes, I take the bad route, and I love it! LOL

hahahah meanie that I am too!


*HUGZ*

Keshi said...

ty Shionge HUGGGGGGGZ! :)


**I believe what's on my mind is always evolving but I hate it others have a negative mindset that's all.

evolving is how it should be. Negative ppl dun hv evolving minds cos they succumb to the evil in their minds.


Keshi.

Keshi said...

hey ty Suma!


**i talk to myself a lot..and i think the mind is what we truly are...and which noone else can see unless we choose to show it

Keshi.

Keshi said...

ty Deepz!


** its easier to shoot one's neurons than fight others!!



yes thats what I meant...its easier and better to kill our bad thoughts than kill ppl. I wonder why terrorists cant do it.

Lucifer said...

i think i have schizophrenia so really dont know which part of my mind to listen to

Keshi said...

Mayz r ya serious?

Keshi.

AnonymousBlogger said...

You know, I used to have those conversations all the time. I don't think I do anymore.

I think that's a bad thing. It's amazing how much you can sort out with yourself when you have a good conversation.

Lucifer said...

:o :o :o :o

Keshi said...

hey AB!

Keshi.

Keshi said...

Keshi said...

Keshi.

Veni said...

Hi Keshi,
I'm on a low carb diet too, just by cutting down my rice....there's so much differences.

But choc and ice-cream is something so dificult for me to say 'NO'

Keshi said...

Yes Veni I feel lighter already. And its really not that bad...cos u can still eat yummy food and not starve too.

Im not a big fan of ice-cream but I want sugar in my coffee for sure :)


Keshi.

dharmabum said...

hey there, choc bic monster :)

how have u been?

i make these secret pacts with the mind - so it conspires, along with me. if it gets talking too much, i down an extra couple shots, and all is well again :)

Rakesh Vanamali said...

Keshi redefined???? ;)

I take most decisions based on what my mind tells me, however, in the event of snicking up chocolates, I shut my mind off! ;)

restless_soul said...

hi Keshi,
Unfortunately I am not back as yet, not because I am very busy but I am empty in mind. There are few other things that keep me engaged. I wish I could command my mind like you do. It is nothing more than a dust bin these days.
Your blog brought smiles to me. They are good, exciting and funny.

Preeti said...

this post made me think and introspect. will get back with wat my mind has to say later :) but yeah, I got a dirty perverted mind ( i know that much ) and am proud of it :) liked those pics *innocent grin *

Nadine said...

Don't laugh, but those pictures when I first saw them didn't get the caption. I saw the ketcup and hot dog and the lamp and thought - "What's so dirty about that?"

uttara said...

my conversation with my mind is endless...

but there is a conflict b.w my heart and mind.. which gets the going tough!

For eg: yest my friend something which my mind and heart was upset and me being a BITCH wud have given her a piece of mind but.. i didnt :P *sigh*

now i'm not a good listner. I jump the gun and talk!

Now i really need to cut down on y CARBS! it's high time i reduce :(

nice topic..

Satish Bolla said...

so u too became a listener???? very good n very bad. i'm an avid listener to every crap my friends say to me. i sometimes end up listening something abt construction materials, engg drawings etc...(which r total alien to me as am into IT) and at the end, i jus think "y the hell did i hear all their mind-shit?".

inner consciousness is something i believe everyone to be having. me n mind are at war every day at food. i normally eat wht all my mind rejects. but otherwise, we r good friends. great friends indeed.

Lucifer said...

u were talkin abt makin up ur mind thr...n i think i lost mine while commentin :P

wat d hell was i thinkin

Preeti said...

hey Keshi you ve been tagged :) visit my blog for details :)

Mel Avila Alarilla said...

Thanks for the visit and prayers. I really appreciate that. God bless.

SaffronSaris said...

My internet connection is cranky again :(
Hopefully, I can put something up soon. Diwali is just round the corner. Looking forward to the lights :)

Shionge said...

"...evolving is how it should be. Negative ppl dun hv evolving minds cos they succumb to the evil in their minds"

Yo Keshi, you are so right!!! I love your take on this and I do have a problem and I need to email you in private.

Hugs as always!!

Suresh Kumar said...

Mind is a big 420. It made me post my last blog when my friend was in a depressive mind thinking it would humour her using some of her dialogues. But it has worked reverse and now my mind says "All is left to almighty:.

I am waiting for it to come out of my mind. Then i will strangle it :)

Che said...

I saw exactly what I was supposed to see ;)

Vinz said...

yeah... i talk to my mind most of the times...i laugh,cry, fight with my mind..

and i totally enjoy doing that..

:)

PS:offlate being very busy i couldnt catch ur previous posts...will get back some other time..!!

Keshi said...

hey Dharma Im doin gooood and hows u? :)



**if it gets talking too much, i down an extra couple shots, and all is well again

good one! When my mind chatters too much I shut her up by rolling my eyes..lol!


Keshi.

Keshi said...

hey Rakesh I get redefined every new day! :)


**chocs

sometimes my mind wins here :(


Keshi.

Keshi said...

hey Restless HUGS!


**not because I am very busy but I am empty in mind. There are few other things that keep me engaged. I wish I could command my mind like you do. It is nothing more than a dust bin these days.


do not worry...give ur mind some rest that it needs maybe...take ur time. I'll be here, hopefully :) ok?

TC mate!

Keshi.

Keshi said...

hey Preeti! :)

**this post made me think and introspect. will get back with wat my mind has to say later

ur mind already did the work..it started thinking hehe...and it got all DIRTY too ;-)


Keshi.

Keshi said...

hahaha Nadine sorry I cudnt help laffing at ur reaction!


Keshi.

Keshi said...

hey Uttsy HUGGGGGGGGZ!


**now i'm not a good listner. I jump the gun and talk

but I think ur a good listener...cos u wudnt know ur Listening powers any better than ur friends and loved-ones. And I know ur a terrific listener.



Abt ur friend...its good u didnt say anything nasty to her. Its best u let ur MIND think over it and react later...when ur MIND is in a sensible state. that way we can avoid alot of unnecessary WORDS.



**carbs

I thought u were already going to the gym etc? I hv put on in the Winter, so I really needed to get back on track with my fitness routine. All the best hun!


Keshi.

Keshi said...

ty Satish!


** very good n very bad. i'm an avid listener to every crap my friends say to me


noooooo I didnt mean THAT by Listening :) All Im trying to do is Listen, not just Hear. U know, alot of the time we just Hear...we hardly Listen. Listening involves Hearing as well as Understanding wut the other person is saying, and being able to say or not say something as a 'sensible' reply. Whereas, Hearing is all abt Noise...not Sound. :)



**Food

Sometimes u gotta LISTEN to ur mind ;-)


Keshi.

Keshi said...

Mayz I think u did too lol!

Keshi.

Keshi said...

Preeti oyeah? ;-)

I'll be there soon.

Keshi.

Keshi said...

*HUGZ*

Keshi.

Keshi said...

hey Suresh!

yes the Mind can make u do things that u'll regret later...


**But it has worked reverse and now my mind says "All is left to almighty:.


LOL good luck to ya!


Keshi.

Keshi said...

Keshi.

Keshi said...

Vini no worries...give ur Mind some time that it needs :) We can wait.


Keshi.

Southpaw unplugged said...

AmitL said...

Uhhh..Keshi-comment no. 2: The pic of the lamp- it was sooo innocent..wonder why anyone would have thought that you were giving them a 'bum steer'??:)*rolling eyes*

AnonymousBlogger said...

I think the problem is finding time in the day to actually do that talking Kesh. That's the hardest part.

Satish Bolla said...

@keshi
that was too much physics for me... :( my mind said(while writing my previous comment) - "baccha, don't write crap. make it right to the point" n i never 'listened'!!!!!

Keshi said...

Good on ya Southy :)

Keshi.

Keshi said...

haha Amit!

Keshi.

Keshi said...
