If you had an inflow of Rs. 50,000 per day, for the rest of your life, and you earned this money without lifting a single finger - Would you still work?

My first reaction was that I would immediately resign and spend the rest of my life in contented idleness - sleeping late, shopping, reading, watching movies, partying, traveling etc etc etc. You get the basic idea.

My second reaction was that I would get utterly butterly bored within a week with such a lifestyle. I know for sure that I am the kind of person who cannot loll around 24/7. I guess I would probably buy myself a full booksho[p and then devote myself to some altruistic purpose like working with pro bono with some NGO or something along these lines. I would also defintely take a year off and go for a round-the-world trip :)

What would you do?

Love or family?

What would you choose if you had to make a choice between the two?

Would you sacrifice your love for family or family for love?

A difficult choice indeed..a.and whatever road you choose to travel will be full of obstacles. A tough choice indeed.

And whatever choice you make, I stand by you as a friend

New Shoes New Shoes

"New shoes new shoes
Tell me what would you choose
If they let us buy

Red shoes pink shoes
Pretty pointy bow shoes
Tell me what would you choose
If they let us buy

But, flat shoes fat shoes
Stamp-along-like-that shoes
This is what they would choose
When they let us buy"

I confess...I LOVE SHOES. I love buying shoes - be it comfy practical black sandals or that pair in blue to match that blue top or the sexy strappy pencil heels or the V slippers or chappals from Janpath or sneakers from Nike or just cuz I fell in love with THAT pair and oh look they have it in my size or there is a sale in my favourite shop and if I don't buy, their poor kid is going to go hungry :P

I love my shoes......
Right from my Nike oh-so-comfortable-floaters (my vote for the most comfy pair of stamp-along-like-that shoes definitely goes to them)
To my Bata chappals (I am a staunch Bata loyalist when it comes to bathroom slippers...right now I have the prettiest pair of white slippers with flowers on the V strap)
To my golden-coloured sandals (both of them)
To my silver sandals (with coins on the V strap)
To my black sandals (all 5 pairs of them. You see I am a sucker for black sandals - my logic being I wear black n white six days a week so I need lotsa pairs in black in all shapes n sized n heights)
To my white wedge heels (when I wear them my grandmom wonders how I manage to retain my balance walking on stilts)
To all my tie-up sandals (Oh they look so sexy, so comfy, so 'In', so chic, so cool, well I can go o and on and on like that Duracell battery)
To all my Osho chappals (I loved you all)
To all my jootis and the ghungrus on them(I loved them so much that I buried them in the back gardens of my PG in Pune...May you all rest in peace)
To my Power shoes (Pointy slingbacks - one pair in black n one in brown)
To my chappals picked up n he beaches of Goa (I can never go wrong in these)
To THAT pair of red sandals that I saw n the shop window the other day (Oh yes you are going to be residing in my wardrobe one day soooooon)
To all the future pairs of sandals to be residing in my wardrobe

Yes I love shoes...and yes Arjun will hit the roof when he sees me walk in with a huuge smile on my face and another shoe box in my hand....
