http://dineshpatekar.rediffiland.com/Diary of Dinesh Patekaren-usSomeone I can trust.
Someone who will be there
When my relationships rust.

Someone who wil save me,
When everything goes wrong.
Someone who wil comfort me
And help me to be strong.

Someone who listens
At any time of day.
Someone who wil brighten
Any sky that's gray.

Someone who will always
Want to be my friend.
Someone who wil fight for me,
Until the bitter end.

Someone who will cry with me
Whenever I am sad.
Someone who will laugh with me
Whenever I am glad.

Someone who will understand
My every weird emotion.
Someone who wil always be
At my side with their devotion.

Someone who wil always think
Of me before themselves.
Someone who wil care for me
And put their own worries onto shelves.

Someone who wil always let
Me act like the true me.
Someone who will always be
Just like I want to be

Someone who wil always remain
Incredibly beautiful and true-
Someone who is my best friend.
Someone just like u.......

Har khushi Hai Logon Ke Daman Mein,
Par Ek Hansi Ke Liye Waqt Nahi.
Din Raat Daudti Duniya Mein,
Zindagi Ke Liye Hi Waqt Nahi.

Maa Ki Loree Ka Ehsaas To Hai,
Par Maa Ko Maa Kehne Ka Waqt Nahi.
Saare Rishton Ko To Hum Maar Chuke,
Ab Unhe Dafnane Ka Bhi Waqt Nahi.

Saare Naam Mobile Mein Hain,
Par Dosti Ke Lye Waqt Nahi.
Gairon Ki Kya Baat Karen,
Jab Apno Ke Liye Hi Waqt Nahi.

Aankhon Me Hai Neend Badee,
Par Sone Ka Waqt Nahi.
Dil Hai Ghamon Se Bhara Hua,
Par Rone Ka Bhi Waqt Nahi.

Paison ki Daud Me Aise Daude,
Ki Thakne ka Bhi Waqt Nahi.
Paraye Ehsason Ki Kya Kadr Karein,
Jab Apane Sapno Ke Liye Hi Waqt Nahi.

Tu Hi Bata E Zindagi,
Iss Zindagi Ka Kya Hoga,
Ki Har Pal Marne Walon Ko,
Jeene Ke Liye Bhi Waqt Nahi.......

And share with you it's beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own.
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea.
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me,
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be...what I know best,
a friend that's always there.

He has been compared with Sir Donald Bradman, has carried the hopes of a billion people for almost 18 years now and inspired thousands to follow in his footsteps.


No doubt all eyes will be on Sachin Tendulkar when India start their World Cup campaign on Saturday against Bangladesh.


His apetite for runs has only grown since he made his debut in 1989. At 34, the Bombay Bomber is just like old wine - he only seems to be getting better with each passing year.


So, carrying the burden of a billion expectations once again, Tendulkar heads into his fifth, and many speculate, final World Cup with his fans praying for a repeat of his form from the 2003 edition.


"I would want to get into a good rythym as early as possible and throughtout the tournament. There are no easy games. Whatever opportunities we get we want to make the most of it. We do not want to leave any room for complacency," said Tendulkar.


Tendulkar has nearly 15,000 runs from 381 ODIs including 41 centuries. He also has the most World Cup runs at just over 1700, nearly 700 of them came in 2003 alone when he was the Man of the Series.


What's telling though is the fact that in all these records, he's miles ahead of second place - 18 centuries ahead of ahead of Ricky Ponting and just over 3000 runs ahead of Inzamam-ul-Haq.


Tendulkar also doubles up as a useful bowler in the middle overs and is just three short of taking 150 ODI wickets.


Skipper Rahul Dravid will certainly rely on his deputy on the slow wickets in the Caribbean.


"It kind of helps to be an irregular bowler. You can always be unpredictable. As a part time bowler I want to introduce an element of surprise. My responsibilities are totally differnt from Anil's (Kumble) so I can afford to do that," he said.

then it's not love..
it's - COMPROMISE .
If you love some one because you think that you cannot live with out his touch ....

If you love some one because you have been kissed by him ...
then it's not love..

it's -CHARITY .
If you love some one because you share every thing with him ..then it's not love..
it's - FRIENDSHIP
But if you feel the pain of the other person more than him even when he is stable
and you cry for him .
That's - LOVE .
If you get attracted to other people but stay with him without any regrets.
That's - LOVE . .
If you let him go knowing that he has to go but he doesn't want to..

that's - LOVE . . .

Fighting to stay afloat... fighting to live...
To accept what seemed like
A grey world, a grey reality and a grey sky.
So many things laying off in the past
seemed so much of a dream within a dream..
Their wrinkled image blurred in time's fleeting river.
So many things which had slipped away,
So many things wearing a changed look now..
The shroud of illusion
In which I had built a small world
Was suddenly removed.
Leaving me a a little bruised.
My faith - a bit shaken...
My beliefs - crashed against a dangerous cliff.
I was a little weary..wiser maybe...
But I didn't want to
Learn so much so fast.]]>Fri, 09 Feb 2007 22:01:31 +0530http://dineshpatekar.rediffiland.com/blogs/2007/02/09/THINK-.htmlBecause for the one whom you cry
Does not deserve your tears
And the one who deserves
Will never let you cry.................

Treat everyone with politeness
Even those who are rude to you,
Not because they are not nice
But because you are nice.......................

Never search your happiness
In others
Which will make you
Feel alone,
Rather search it in yourself
You will feel happy
Even if you are left alone......................

Always have
A positive attitude in life.
There is something positive
In every person.
Even a stopped watch is right
Twice a day...................................

Happiness always looks small
When we hold it in our hands.
But when we learn to
Share it,
We realize how big and precious it is!...............
