Read My Heart!

It's Vesak! Vesak encompasses the Birth, Enlightenment (Nirvana), and Passing (Parinirvana) of Gautama Buddha. In my childhood days, I used to make Vesak lanterns like this one with my cousins and friends, and hang them around our house during the Vesak period. It made me very happy. The light that resonates through the Vesak lanterns lit my heart up. It was such a joy and I still love them so very much. The significance of Vesak always played an important part in my life...the birth, enlightenment and the death of the Buddha is very similar to anyone's life. We are all born, we all LEARN something or the other, and then we all die some day. Although not everyone can be a Buddha, I believe each one of us learns something 'significant', to the best of our abilities during our lives. I just wanna wish you all a very happy Vesak! May your hearts light up with love and may your lives stay 'enlightened' always!


Also, there's something I need to tell a Sri Lankan blogger who visits my blog regularly (yes I can trace the time you spend here, and your IP and what-nots), and then goes back to his blog and writes abusive things about me. You know who you are. So, on this Vesak day, I'd like to tell you that freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom of abuse. There's a slight but very sharp difference. I don't know you. You don't know me. But I've been watching you over the years in total silence, how you just pick random people at your own will and abuse them in your blog. It's not very cool btw. Today is the day I wish to break the silence for your own good. I hope you just live and let live. If not, I have about 500 very smart blog friends here from all over the world, that I could bring over to your blog, so they can read your 'wonderful' posts about me and perhaps give you 'suggestions' on how to be a better blogger. One who doesn't trespass on others? Not a threat here, just a good ol' solution to people who seem to need some help with 'sensible' blogging. Words don't get to me. They are mere words. Just cos someone abuses me using harsh words, that doesnt mean I am any of that. When someone abuses you, it is usually a cry for help and I aint gonna lick anyone's wounds. I will keep silent. The one who refuses to cop any abuse and does that in total silence, is the wisest of all. I just want you to realise how much damage you're doing to yourself by abusing people this way...people you don't even know (it baffles me that anyone would really wanna do that...such people must live empty lives). Now sharpen up and good luck!




On to materialistic things now. Take a good look at this pic. It was taken 2 days ago. Well I'm going to give you a list of possible things that I may be wishing for behind that 'look' on my face. All you've got to do is guess the right answer. Kapish? Let's see how many of you can read my HEART or how many of you are good psychologists or clairvoyants, whatever it is! :) Good luck!

What do I want from Genie right now? What am I thinking of right now?


1. Wedding plans with Diego *whopppa!!*
2. Brief getaway in Europe

3. Making a Vesak lantern *and shoving it over someone's head!*
4. Buying a brandnew unit of my own
5. Hoping some people would get a life, if not some therapy!
6. New shoes Keshi new shoes yes yes yes! *orgasmic yes!*
7. Going to Hollywood and trying my best to become the next Penelope Cruz!
8. Breaking into Diego's house at night! *there's a reason for choosing NIGHT btw lol!*
9. Enrolling for a Spanish degree at Uni *como estas Amigas? right now I'm only a Google dependent Spaniard
*
10. Saying yes to a hot Aussie bloke who asked me out


There could only be 1 answer for this pic. So go ahead, have fun guessing. btw I'm yet to come around to your blogs..I have been pretty slack lately, sorry, too busy at work. Will do so as soon as I get some time ok. Thanks for being so patient with me. And please continue to pray for Ne (re: my last post). And hey have a good weekend all!

FH said...

XOXO Keshi, see you next month!:)

Why is it always our own people who tries to pull us down? Puzzles me. Jealousy?

Flip the bird to that desi creep, and enjoy Diegoland! Hahhaha!

Vishesh said...

oh I didn't know about Vesak...let the world see peace soon... :)

P.S: check this out for whom the sunshines

Jeevan said...

Nice knowing about Vesak and have a wonderful time keshi. I can’t guess what reads your heart, but I see happiness behind those beautiful eyes. I wish the one realizes his stupidity soon and worry for being like that.

Anya said...

LoL at the orgasmic yes...

hope diego gains wisdom by sitting under a bodhi tree too

:)

4) brand new unit... is that what you are thinking now?

Suresh Kumar said...

I think you would go with simpler joys of life and believe No 3 wud be ur choice.

Happy Vesak Keshi.

And for that blogger, if he is reading this comment, here is an simple advice to him , "If you have something good to do, do it immediately and If you have something bad to do, postpone it indefinitely"

Jack said...

Keshi,

We all will get what is in our destiny. But this should not stop us from striving for what we wish to achieve. Parents are always a source of comfort. As long as they are with you, you feel carefree. Vasak, thanks for enlightening us about it. I too had a visitor who was very forthright in his comments and it shows their upbringing & culture. Your photographs show how starry eyed you are. May your wishes be fulfilled. May you lead a very blissful life with Diego.

Take care

Phoenix said...

Tarun said...

Happy Vesak ...

First to the loser blogger and then to u.

I mean if people have time to blog about what other blogger are doing, and take a pot shot at them, then there are definetly better things to do for them in life.

I see a whole brigade of blogger standing right next to u (of course me included) be it for good and bad.

Enjoy the weekend.

Kartz said...

Vesak Greetings, Keshi! :)

I was on a miiiini hiatus. Well, to be honest, I was told to reduce on my computer usage. :P* So, 4 - 5 days of abnormally reduced surfing. :(

And that Sri Lankan blogger can well... Go rot in hell. :P* Oh no! That's my abode! He can... Ummm... Ok, he can stay in my abode. I shall roast him over slow flame. *devil grin*

And my guess - 5! :)

Ok ok, off to read the other posts that I ve missed. :)

Peace.

Lucifer said...

Happy Vesak to you too...

ummm leavin for europe keshi??

btw d last time a girl had that kinda look on her face i lost lotsa money...

abt dat blogger...well as i always tell ya its jus plain jealousy

Phil said...

Happy Vesak to you too. BTW, don't mention the Sri Lankan blogger or even take a moment to trace his ip etc. He's obviously an unhappy, petty person who is not worth your time. He doesn't deserve the words you wasted writing about him. THat will only fuel his idiotic narcissism. He'll probably read this and start stalking my blog now too. Dude needs to get a life.

Sam said...

simple! what you are thinking is, "get the pic right!!"
the rest are thoughts which cud precede or succeed this one.. but at the moment u clicked, dats ur thought!!

amitsfavourites said...

Happy Vesak,Keshi!And,tks for the info about this day-the lanterns,specially.
---
Re. the SL blogger-I can only tell you to ignore him..I can't understand what pleasure he(or anybody) might be getting by doing what he does..probably the anger at something else coming out this way as an outlet...enlightenment should be beckoning!!
---
The pic-the look-whoopsy-it's definitely the 'new shoes'on the way look...:)(That reminded me-I still didn't go shop for my walking shoes..sigh!!:)Maybe tomorrow,if u say my guess was correct..haha!Have a lovely weekend.:)

UBERMOUTH said...

Yeah, I have two idiots carrying on like that.The net draws obsessive crazies,sadly ,nd you can't always spot them right away.

Talking To My Soul said...

Hi.

Of course you are hoping that some people would get a life and that's why making a Vesak lantern for what you know.

Hi, Kesh. Who's that blogger? Can I have his URL?

I am planning to move to Spain and get a citizenship, rechristen myself, call myself Diego and run a coffee shop. When are you hitting Europe for the getaway, by the way?

*smilez*

Unknown said...

Happy Vesak, Keshi.

MARIA said...

It is an interesting post about Vesak. Happy Vesak, dear Keshi!

Sri Lankan blogger - what do you do to others it will come to you sooner or later, but with double power.

What are you thinking of right now?
I don't know, I guess:
#9

Have a good days!

Whitesnake said...

I refer ta Number ten!

Ï did NOT ask you out!"
All I said was "It would be nice ta spend and evening alone with you!"

This does not constitute taking long hot showers with you nor buying you new shoes nor does it involve a night of gratuitous love making I was merely stating....?????

Well maybe just once, or twice or a few times more!

Whitesnake said...

It's New shoes New shoes For Keshi!

Lucifer said...

Sri Lankan blogger - why do you do that?

Commander Zaius said...

I have about 500 very smart blog friends here from all over the world, that I could bring over to your blog, so they can read your 'wonderful' posts about me and perhaps give you 'suggestions' on how to be a better blogger.
Anytime!

What am I thinking of right now?
I would say number eight although number six is high on my list.

tulipspeaks said...

verbal/blog abuse again huh? *sigh.. will these dickheads ever learn?

As for the look on ur face.. I would guess it's #6 - the shoes.

Glennis said...

Looks like thoughts of weddings to me.

Vani said...

Belated Vesak wishes Keshi..

But then decided to go for num 8..Lolz :)))
