I am a Ph.D graduate from US currently working in cancer research area in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Recently I developed interest into sowing and had stitched few simple things from the patterns available at walmart. Now I wanted to learn stitching saree blouses and saIwars. I found this IL site very interesting and informative. After registering, I came to know the site privileges that I have to post at least 50 to download the attachments. Little disappointment but I will try my best to meet the requirements. Nice to join you all. Cheers! Sridevi.

Hi Sridevi

It was so friendly and had the typical Indian warmth in it so it really encouraged me to register. Now i hope i can make good friends on line and share thoughts on many topics.Let me begin by introducing myself.
I hail from Bangalore (Now it is Bengaluru)- Karnataka and settled in Singapore from past 10 yrs. I have done my BA from NMKRV collage in Bangalore. I would like to know if any of you studied from that collage during 1990-1993.
I am a home maker ( I disagree with the word House -Wife ) but looking for some work to do from home. I have 2 kids 11 and 6 yrs old so i would like to stay home to care for them, but at the same time i think it is very important for women to be independent( financially and generally ) and in sink with the fast changing world.

I am more artistically inclined. I do oil Paintings, art works, I have acted in dramas and directed a few as well. I also take Balvihar classes at home teaching Shlokas, Bhajans, Mytological stories, Indian traditions, their meaning & significance, to children from 4 yrs to 11 yrs. I think it is important for our children to know and appreciate, the rich indian ( be it north or south) cultural and i hope they will carry it forward.

Regards
Lakshmi

2.Love always Hurts.(i m not talking about boy-girl love,i m telling about man to man love).
3.Do your daily chores regularly and properly.
4.Live the life to the Moment.Dont hold past happiness ,sorrows,memories are anything in your mind.
5.Live life as if "U" are the happiest person in this world.
6.Be quiete when u have problems.Even u have 100 close persons to listen your problems,dont share anything with any anyone.No matter how close they are to u.
7.U dont go in search of anyone and dont build any relationship with anyone.Some people may enter ur life and they may come in ur way themselves.like parents,brother and it may b outside persons also.U just "RESPOND" them but dont expect from them.
8.Devote most of the time by thinking only about God.Strictly DONT THINK ABOUT ANY OF THE HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS.
9.Keep Ur Mind Free from Thoughts.
a) Respond properly to the persons who come in ur way.
b) Keep Ur mind filled with Thoughts about God and then remember ur Duties&Responsibilities.
c) Think urself as an Individual and think that ur only relation is God.Be a Daughter to a Mother,Be a Wife to ur Husband,like that understand whom u r to others and perform ur role properly.Dont get drowned in any relationship.Always Remember that U are an Individual and ur only relation is God.
10.If u have the capability acheive something in life and b a role model to others.if u dont have, then job is almost easier....just watch the people around u and the things happening around this world quietly.
11.Dont look others and get hurted urself.
12.a)Learn to Love.
b)Love helps to build Desires.
c)Desires drive to make Efforts.
d)Dont lose ur hopes.Even u r dead sure of ur failure dont give up ur efforts.
e)Be ready to Welcome both success and failures.
13.Keep Trying " To Live the Life".
14.a)Dont Regret for things happened.
b)Dont feel sad if things fails to happen as u like.

15.a)Dont appreciate urself & get excited if things happened favourable to u.
b)Dont blame urself & feel sad for the problems u r facing in life.
16.In times u feel restless,just do the things whch u like.if u cant think anything and if u r in full frustration - just think about God,write God name till ur mind gets free.
17.Afterall we are human being so unknowingly little little bad thoughts will be inside of each person is my beleif.Dont allow those thoughts to grow.Try to think gud,and act good.( i dont mean anyone.it is one of my advice in general, that's all)
18.Develop Strong willpower,Dont expect others to console u,Try to be strong Urself.
19.All relationships,happiness,problems and consider evverything in life as passing clouds.Even if u get stucked to problems, be as if nothing as happened.Tears or prayers or nothing is going to change the things.
What has to happen it will happen.Nobody can change or stop the things which is going to happen.

dont bother urself by thinking about ur future.just live the moment..in the gud way which is possible for u.

romance,sex,entertainment,freinds,roaming,getting addict to bad habits all give pleasures only for time being.
GOD WORSHIP,PERFORMANCE OF OUR DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES ALONE WILL GIVE PEACE OF MIND.
whether we r sinned or blessed is not a problem now.dont analyse these things now.whoever we are also,we have to live the life.STOP ANALYSING EVEVRYTHING AND TRY TO TAKE THE THINGS IN A LIGHTER WAY.
keep on reciting God's name.Dont worry,leave everything to GOD.,
Try to forget ur problems,burdens and pains.Try to love evevrything in life.
IF U THINK MY WORDS AS WORTHY,TRY TO FOLLOW. OTHERWISE JUST IGNORE THE MESSAGE AND SORRY FOR THE INCONVINIENCE.
LEAVE EVEVRYTHING TO GOD.
KEEP UR MIND FREE FROM THOUGHTS.
LET US HOPE FOR THE GUD THINGS TO HAPPEN IN LIFE.
EVEVRYTHING WILL GO ALRITE FREIND.
CHEER UP!!!

Dear Thejaswi,
A good intelligent person has a shine both inside his body and outside his body. The shine is outside it's called Thejas. When it's in it's called ojas. The outer shine is only a reflection of inner shine, so say our shastras. Just an explanation of your beautiful name.
Welcome to IL.
I did not know that you had written about me here. I just saw the thread accidentally.
Thanks for all the nice words you have about my writings, Thejaswi. Please do read my work and leave your comments.
And one more thing, never lose heart.You are going to be a great artist. You are now being prepared for that role. This is the time you need to be patient while keepingthe fire within you intact.
wish you best of luck,
regards,

I'm expecting my first baby... (wish my mum to be with me by this time,... but being alone makes me sad...)
I'm very much interested in arts and crafts,
and fashion design... once after a 'fashion bug' had bitten me, unfortunately, I rushed to one f.institute which was run by an 'unskilled' individual and got out of it with my lost money and got frustrated... ( that's a different story...)
Right from my childhood, I always wanted to be an 'artist'... after I won many prizes during my school and college days, I thought, certainly I wd become a great artist... which never happened...
I'm interested in learning new things in arts and crafts and also new languages...
I even tried my hand in 'Hindi Translation' too...
to forget my lonliness, I found a way of joining our 'Indusladies'.... it's really nice to be here....
and, varalotti sir, I'm big a fan of ur writings,... I like the your way of writing stories.. my sister also likes ur stories... My God, is it really you...? I can't believe that I can contact you... Wish you good luck to get even more diamonds on your writing crown sir,...
Good luck to all other new ILites too,...
Cheers,
Thejaswi.
