Your 2nd birthday

<these are not pics of the party and I have to do that>

So there are few things happening with you.
1) You are developing a lovely cute personality. The pani puri waala below the house gives you one free pani puri every evening. Yesterday you decided to have mango ice cream and u managed to point me to snow bite. So I got their fresh mango ice cream for you and you entered the premises licking it and then when the pani puri guy offered you his puri, you turned your head - said "no" and walked away.

2) You and Papa are becoming a group now. So when I scold you you look at Papa and make eee face. Vice Verse when I scold Papa, you look at him and make a eee face too.

Anyways your birthday was very simple. We went to school then when to i came back, we went to get cake from Neha aunty’s house.  You licked most of the cake. 
Then Nanaji gots lots of toys for you - a top, a remote control red car, a blinking led for a candle and set up the terrace.

I made the Yootopia New Civilizatiom starters kit.

Then we went to buy you a birthday dress and you chose a lovely red dress with white collar. Then we went to the park where Papa fought with a 6 year old who was threatening you 😂.

Came back and I had ordered some tiny  animal figures like fishes etc as giveaways to people and u played with them stackers and more with remote control car and slept off :).

Today is the party :)

Fundamental strength

I will add two snapshots from my story.

I have this natural radar for bullshit and I hate making compromises to satisfy egos. But when you are making a film, you have to wriggle- sometimes give into peoples egos over logic so that your work is done.

So here was my issue - I was supremely angry to travel for edit, moreso coz there was no compromise from other end to even travel once.
I decided to transform my experience and the memory of that experience into something positive and of unimaginably higher value.

Nonetheless to say it wouldn't have been possible without the support of nana-nani who were babysitting you.

Never slacken in your efforts

"You must never slacken in your efforts to build new lives for yourselves. Creativity means pushing open the heavy door to life. This is not an easy struggle, indeed it may be the hardest task in the world. For opening the door to your own life is more difficult than opening the door to all the mysteries of the universe."

We tried to draw something

Film poster idea

When in 1933 Constantin Tsiolkovsky tried talking about space travel in films

Constantin Tsiolkovsky knew that all his creativity and his science did not allow to imagine all the exact conditions of a flight towards the Moon, but he fixed at least 6 conditions which, if they were respected, ensured the credibility of the film. 
 First he wanted the rocket to take off from a launch pad . 
 Secondly the water booths (or more precisely liquid, this liquid must be of the same density as the human body). 
 Then the lack of sparkling stars. 
 Then zero gravity during the free flight phase. 
 Fifth, the jumps on the moon, with feet joined to the "way of sparrows". 
 Finally landing softly using parachutes. 
It was these conditions, minimal but very difficult then to implement, which led to the abandonment of several film projects ( Tsiolkovski said that he had been asked by other filmmakers, but without any project successful).

Bonus: Sketch dated 1922 by Tsiolkovsky tells how in weightless there is neither up nor down.

Also the best advice I have got oflate is

Pretend to be your best friend and give yourself advice -
On things that trouble you or even on important life decisions.

Start practising being your own best friend.
You can write yourself a letter too assuming but detach from your problems when you write- goto a cafe and write away from home.

So even if you are feeling pigeon-holed into some love problem or some career politics, try to be the right person and do the right thing even if it's opposite of what you innately feel, sometimes your best friend can lend you some objectivity to help you keep your emotions out of a situation and take the best action.

Wolf and sunset and happiest days of my life

..I take my little wolf and daughter for a walk, play with the new kittens, a giant white dog named Ghost & argue with a particularly nosy crow (who steals cat foods). Then we sit watching the sunset over the sea- wondering why urban lives are not magical enough...

So your nani said that the happiest days of her life was when I and asim were growing up and even though she has been happy since then - that's when she was happiest.

Someone else told me that you might look back in your life and feel that those days I had everything - and still worried about nitty-gratties your film.

So last 2-3 days I have made contentment and happiness my primary emotion and all worries very secondary and trust me I am handling my worries much better too as they are not de-stabilising me or not making me volatile at all.

I make it a point to do stuff like sleep for 20 mins extra if both you and Juno are snuggled up and not get up worried. Read books to you and just play ringa ringa roses to you.

Ok on other note I am hooked into this podcast called imaginary worlds and I heard about this game eve online where people have to build this world of spaceships and how passionate they become about it- there are players who are actually reporters and how time slows down there when important events happen. I don't know what is the virtual world situation for your generation is.

The truth is humans need distractions from their existence but sometimes if you don't distract you can probably make your reality as awesome as an alternative hive mind created hyper universe.
