Meet Yourself

Sometimes u dont need friends
Sometimes u dont need relatives
Sometimes u dont need source to connect to anyone
Sometimes what u need is just u urself

Quite often i have found myself accompanied with my one or the other friend,so till then i have never met myself.
And i never knew i would have a glimpse of myself.
Well then why not to just write it down.
Never thought i would be going pune to give an exam fro which i am not at all confident about
( well thats me always under confident).
And as the journey begined i was totally unaware about the beauty of nature i was about to enjoy.
A small bag , My sweetheart ( Thats What i call "My Laptop" ) and me. we 3 all together in a sleeping berth wandering while staring outside the window, what we 3 will do in the whole journey.
Mean while as usual an unusual idea came to me to practice some of the sums.
Believe me i did tried that but could not succeed in doing so.
The thing that surprised me was the change of view, the moment i closed my eyes there were flat regions and cactus everywhere and the same time when i opened there were big mountains all around with streams of water flowing from the top of the mountain  to the end of the road. I related the scenario with my life which is going the same way like the road which i saw when i closed my eyes.
But i somehow believe mother nature will fill the same beautiful colours in my life as i saw when i opened my eyes.
Its Said "Nothing is Permanent "
Truly said but everything has an exception and there exist for the above fact too.
U might lose ur home , ur friends , ur name , ur fame , ur glory everything as nothing is permanent
but one person who is always with you is your self.
I was like a american in village when i reached the destination, where to go , where i am totally blanck somehow managed to reach my friend place.
If i keep my exams aside one thing i saw or say experienced was that i stand no where among st those people, Brilliant, Intelligent i dont find more adjectives for them.
Well this feeling is with me since long time.
This Feeling keeps moving around my mind all the time and the feeling is obvious as the time is not on my side.
You here from people Be positive Something good will happen. Agreed!!
But Its easy to say and extremly hard to be.
Thousands of such thoughts and music in my ears
Thats When i met myself ',
Thats When i tried to motivate myself,
Thats when i felt that its only you yourself who is with u all the time,
Thats When i felt no one can cheer you the way you cheer yourself ,
Nothing is as good as finding your weakness by yourself ,
I Always try to do the same, the result is always a failure but that does not mean i cant
But It means One Day I Definitely Will.


If I could summarize what i want to convey is
Learn ,Explore ,Travel
Cry ,Smile ,Laugh
Meet yourself and you will meet the world

A Friend at Gandhinagar


The Thought of writing this blog came to me when mihir told me i have not any surprises which were only
for me so here we go Mr. MIHIR RAVAL ( the way smit speaks out your name ) a small blog about how much i share with you in this 4 months 

If i am not wrong the very impression of yours for me was totally different then you are . you seemed to be the sincerest from all of us. and believe me dude you proved me wrong the very next day when back benchers came in to existence. well its truely said it was just the beginning the breakfast , lunch and the photo session at your lounge ( cant describe this so called lounge here ) were the few reasons which made our friendship more strong. call it a tragedy or a luck though shifted to 3rd floor our places were not so far.
as the time passed i found you were not much different then me . Non technical, short tempered, smart (not more then me haha just kidding ) and the bestest of all we both are interested in cultural events. 

there were times during the session when i was in some worst situations though i havent shared with you anything. but one thing that felt me relieved was the moment when i turn around my sad face i can see u smiling at me and all i can lip read is pratik smile everything is good . if you werent there to manage the accounts of back benchers who would done all that. well to be honest not a single person have read the excel sheet you made of that accounts. but brother the way u manage, the way u care , the way u observe, the way u think i havent seen a perfect friend like you. the breakfast and lunch is always incomplete if we dont have a bite from your tiffin. i couldnt have choreographed that garba dance if u havent supported me at the time we were editing the song. there are so many things to write that i forgot to mention one special moment when we both were tensed about 1st module result. the moment when you came running to me pratik we both cleared was one of favorite moment amongst all. i guess all the people who knows you want to say but on behalf of them i m saying that how you collect the memories of moments with your friends i havent seen anyone in my life doing it. the blood donation camp, the mt abu trip, movies , lunch , dinner 
everything would not have been so perfect with out you admit it. 
A day before L1 it was about 1 p.m when i was editing song  and you were like pratik what will happen tommrow i cant type the exact words but i still remember that moment mihir i dont what will happen but everyone will like this video or not? 
Well luck does not favours us all the time i could not make up to continue with all. the video which we made together became video of my farewell only .
but brother believe me you won my heart with only two lines when you called my dad n said dont worry uncle i will drop him to jamnagar.
I didnt feel that bad when i was told u are not the part of this firm anymore but i feel more bad when a thought came to my mind that i wont be able to spend that hours of joy and work with you and all our group anymore.
But I Promise to be your brother from other mother for rest of my life.
and ya no affairs haa, and remember when the time will go right 
we will be on the big screens together

Love you brother
yours Pretzzzz



P.S. I Know i have missed many things spare me for that and celebrity saheb bhulna mat ;)

The Dwarika Trip Day 1


Just A try to Jumble up all the moments of trip


It was 22nd july 2014 I was with my mom or say best friend suman and all our igate friends
it was lunch time and on the table i was wandering from whose tiffin to start and suddenly
rishi my one of the besty asked me "Pratik Idhar aao " ( thats how he call every one and believe me every one gets scared when calls this way and so was my reaction at the same time )
Well jokes apart.
"We are coming to dwarika this weekend and planing to go to somnath as well"
This exact words made me forget the awkward feeling sitting among the employees of the company of which you not the part anymore.
ya sure lets plan out the trip but before i could think of any plan he and the e smart girl ( surbhi ) had already looked the bus timings and everything . Happiness rolled over me . Reasons were obvious
firstly my friends were coming near to my place
secondly we were going to a trip again.
With the plans of doing this and that on the trip i made my journey way to home.

Day 1 :

25th July 2014 5:45 a.m. I was standing on saat-rasta ( seems a  little wierd but thats what its name is in my home town Jamnagar)
waiting to get the bus to dwarika. Luck was by my side and fortunately i got the A.C. sleeping bus to dwarika.
The very first thing i did sitting in bus i called my buddy ( Popularly the coding king of our group )
Kunal sarkar to inquire where did they reached and surprisingly they were still on the way.
With ear plugs on and Cool breeze of a.c. blowing on my head i continued my journey or i can say beginning of my trip.
Somehow on the way i woke up two of my bestest buddies Mihir and Bhavik just to share my excitement and say " Hey I am about to reach dude and miss you." ( I said something else too which cant be disclosed here )
Last 1 km away from the destination and Phone ringing ( for me ringing means vibrating i always keep me phone on silent )
it was kunal again " Hey Pratik we got the rooms booked in Hotel Tirthraj "
Finally i reached wandering which side to go for hotel tirthraj.
and on my way i managed to inquire about dwarika darshan bus and also bus to somnath which made comfort level of trip easier.
Room no. 14 and 13 ( E school 's room )
i went in met kunal and Inzi ( i know sound's a new name but dats what we call rishi ) & E school ( Surbhi ) were getting ready
 The tension came when i heard Inzi saying " Pratik Give me 10 minutes " but this time they were actually 10 minutes .
The trip started with our booking for dwarika darshan which was at 2 p.m. sharp.
We prefered to walk by to the temple. on the way i made the brief description about what i had seen before.
the moment we were walking cows started running from the thing which surprised was surbhi also going behing them.
reason was rishi told him you cant sit on cow's back . the very obvious question from me and kunal all girls have brains in their  knees ? or she was the special one ?? lol..
Finally we reached temple . As always we snapped few of the photos submitted our belongings and entered the temple.
All the three of us instructed " Surbhi If at all you cant find us plz come near this shiv temple ok ? clear ? "
And then the moment awaited when door of main mandir opened with the chaints of "Jay Dwarikdhish "
we all saw the divine look of lord krishna and met at the pre decided place.
Thanks to Lord Krishna we found Surbhi in no time. we went to each and every place of temple.
and recollecting the mobiles and bag ( first thing we did took the photos )
On the way to Gomti Ghat but breakfast was the first thing they decided.
Tea , coffee ( for me ), khaman dhokla i could only see them as it was my fast ( saturday ).
At last we were on the ghats of gomti and before we could see the wave far away from us.
the wave near by made all four of us salty and wet.
I can see the highest level of joy and happiness on all our faces.
Even my words cant describe how beautiful that moment was and not even the pictures which we clicked after that.
we slowly covered the whole ghat which included giving food to the fish, clicking pictures with wave, posing in s.r.k. style.
Looking at us anyone will say did you jumped in to that ocean ??
Above all this we reached a place which i call marine drive of dwarika we sat for almost half an hour which included undoubtedly the photo clicks( Mostly selfies ) and feeling the tides and ebbs of ocean.
Time was running through and places to cover were many , we reached Bhadkeswar Mahadev Temple and uttering the Mahamrutinjay mantra we came at back side of temple where you can see only one thing Ocean.
The Beauty of that view , The Feel of brizzles , It was just none of us wanted to go away from there but the 15 minutes time bound and the fear of catching the bus without having lunch convinced us to leave and procced for lunch.
 when Inzi said " Yaar i think Khana achi jagah pe khana chahiye " we immediatly went to guruprena restaurent right in front of us.
The Best Part of our trip was Rishi was known by all the restaurent people to put his phone on charging LOL.
Done with the lunch we managed to catch the bus at 2 p.m. ( Again Rishi kept that 10 min to 10 min which he told while going back to room Sorry rishi i know you want to kill me LOL)
As the bus started me and rishi took out our glares and believe me we kept it on  the whole journey except we were inside the temple.
The very first place we saw "Rukhmani temple"where we heard the story behind the temple far away from dwarika and also the sad part couldnt click many photos beacuse of the rain.
The next stop was "Nageshwar Temple" ( one of the 12 jyotiirlingh of lord shiva ) . we peacefully visited temple , had parikarma, also photo session with huge statue of lord shiva which interrupted with the feeling that we were the only four left to enter the bus which made us run like anything and entering the bus like a innocent kid.LOL
Few Kms away and we were at "Gopi tadav" . we visited atmost 4 temples which included more then 20 photo clicks by us.
( Pratik And Rishi Still Wearing their Shades )

And Then came the last but not the least place in our dwarika darshan "Bet Dwarika"
we were supposed to go by boat which was a journey of half an hour. but seeing the wave of the boat and the water all the four of us started om namah sivay om namah sivay ( specially me and surbhi ) The fear which we felt was not more then the fear of jumping from a cliff of mountain. As always lots of photo clicks and somewhat P.J's of surbhi we managed to reach  our destination.
Sad part is surbhi got so happy she jumped off the boat and BANG!!! she hurted herself . she couldnt walk properly.
But kehte he jo hote he ache ke liye hota he. This situation made us hire a ricksaw to the temple.
Well say it tragedy or luck but since morning everything happned at perfect time and Iam mentioning it late because the moment we four had prayer in the mandir and procceded the doors got closed.
Now the question was whether to go Hanuman dandi which is 5 km away or not ? we will be able to catch the bus ? what if we miss it ? we will be able to reach ? with lots of ques in mind.
we just ended up saying this to ricksawala " Bhaiya Hanuman Dandi jana aur wapas aana he jaldi se jaldi "

Slow rain, silent road & the four friends a memorable time.

Doing a quick prayer and clicking few selfies LOL . We hurried  to catch the boat.
Believe me this time the boat ride wascompletly different. By saying different i mean we were sailing at 45 degree.
This time rishi was also praying with me and surbhi "Hey Bhagwan Sahi salamat poch jaye " .
Aur Bhagwan ne humari sunn li !!
We reached back safely but one more surprise was waiting for us
We missed the bus!!
But as I said call it a tragedy or luck we immediatly got ride to mithapur and the moment we reached mithapur cab for dwarika was waiting for 4 of us.
It was 7:45 p.m. we reached dwarika and with empty wallets we went to ATM.
After a long chat at rooms we decided to have the dinner at the same place we had lunch.
The moment we entered the place . i saw rishi " bhaiya phone charging pe rakhna he LOL "
( I must say we got bestest photos clicked because of his phone )
We somehow managed to reach our rooms by 9:45 p.m. as i was excited to see Comedy Nights with kapil.
but by the time show got over every one slept surbhi in her room and this two guys in front of me.
As we decided to attend the morning aarti. Setting the alarm clock by 4:45
I slept peacefully.
