Hold my Hand
I promise that I'll do all I can
Things will get better
If you just hold my hand
Nothing can come between us
If you just hold my hand
MJ & Akon
Death is no more the beginning or the end. Touch and go moments. I am dying inside and I can't do anything anymore. Zapped out of strength. Just waiting. Praying and waiting. Lost in limbo and living in a trance-like state. Smiling for the heck of it, grinning cause I have nothing else to do, nothing left to lose if I lose you.
Hate this feeling. Dark times. Looking within but finding little solace. It's been a tough week all around yet there are has been no easing in the pain.
Help me pull through. Help me learn to let go. I know I struck a plea-bargain with You two years ago. Please, I beg thee please don't take her away from me.
Please.
But let Your will be done.
Hold my Hand. I won't ever let you go.

From a Million Dollar Man to his Gran Torino... Your biggest fan.
Well maybe not biggest fan. Hope to learn more about your work and films and hope that I follow my heart just the way you have. Have been reading a few quotes and wanted to pen them down for future reference (Re: In times of depression & loneliness)
Without sounding like a pseudointellectual dipshit, it's my responsibility to be true to myself. If it works for me, it's right.
I don't like the wimp syndrome. No matter how ardent a feminist may be, if she is a heterosexual female, she wants the strength of a male companion as well as the sensitivity.
There's a rebel lying deep in my soul. Anytime anybody tells me the trend is such and such, I go the opposite direction. I hate the idea of trends. I hate imitation; I have a reverence for individuality. I got where I am by coming off the wall. I've always considered myself too individualistic to be either right-wing or left-wing.
I think kids are natural actors. You watch most kids; if they don't have a toy they'll pick up a stick and make a toy out of it. Kids will daydream all the time.
Plastic surgery used to be a thing where older people would try to go into this dream world of being 28 years old again. But now, in Hollywood, even people at 28 are having work done. Society has made us believe you should look like an 18-year-old model all your life. But I figure I might as well just be what I am.
People have lost their sense of humor. In former times we constantly made jokes about different races. You can only tell them today with one hand over your mouth or you will be insulted as a racist. I find that ridiculous. In those earlier days every friendly clique had a 'Sam the Jew' or 'Jose the Mexican' - but we didn't think anything of it or have a racist thought. It was just normal that we made jokes based on our nationality or ethnicity. That was never a problem. I don't want to be politically correct. We're all spending too much time and energy trying to be politically correct about everything.
On a possible return to acting after saying he was giving it up with Gran Torino (2008)] I'm like Jaws 2 (1978): "Just when you think it's safe to go back in the water..."
[On death] I don't think older people think about it that much, my mother was 97. She passed away a few years back. The only thing she ever said to me, toward the last, she said, 'I want out of here, I am tired.' And I said 'No, no, three more years. We get the century mark.' I figured I could coax her into more after that, but when she finally did pass away, she couldn't talk because she had had a stroke. They said do you want to be resuscitated for while, and she said 'no.' So, I had to grant her that wish. She had no fear and I think as you get older -- you probably have more fear as a younger person than you do as an older person. Because as an older person you have stacked up a lot of background and time-in-grade, so to speak, so you are probably thinking what the hell 'I have had a good time.

Choking on a dream
Tell me your secrets
Tell me your dreams
Tell me how we could make this work
Leave nothing in-between
Right or wrong I forget
There was nothing there to prove
It's not like I was a real threat
Just your muse, just a tool
Tell me your dreams
Tell me how we could make this work
Leave nothing in-between
Right or wrong I forget
There was nothing there to prove
It's not like I was a real threat
Just your muse, just a tool

Batti Bandh 2010!
2010 is coming to a close soon.
Last December the youth of St Joseph Parish, Goregaon East got together at Assisi Bhavan to spread the word that switching off lights for an hour is GOOD!
'Batti Bandh' or 'Mumbai Unplug' is an initiative by people like you and me, the common folk of our country, to step up the battle to give generations ahead of us a future.
On December 11, 2010, I request all of you to switch of your lights for an hour - from 7:30 to 8:30 - to mark solidarity with those supporting the cause to save electricity. IF you can spread the word amongst family and friends that is a start. Put up notices in your buildings, complexes, talk about the initiative on twitter, orkut or any other social networking site that you are on... blog about it!!!
The kids of Shuchidham complex, took up the initiative to spread the word. We spent 3 hours making charts. They were really enthusiastic about the project and parents came out to support us. (They still think I am a kid :D)
Mother Nature and ME will love you till death parts us :D
BATTI BANDH!!! UNPLUG MUMBAI!!!
