Abba Dabba Jabba

-

 

The very famous three words in this world, since inception ,…..when you don’t understand a single thing…..and your mind says…” Abba Dabba Jabba “…

This is like ….you study the whole year …. Get only 2 hours sleep….you literally die studying …..and then……at the exam…… it’s abba dabba jabba….hahahahahaha….how many of you agree ?


I was thinking of an inspirational article to write …( how boring )…....and couldn’t decide what ! ..Somebody asked me …what I was going to write this weekend …and as natural it was ….I replied …..abba dabba jabba..!

Here goes nothing !


I am usually the odd one out ….you know ?....the black sheep……. In a line , I am the one who is always out….people look at me and wonder the uncommon characteristics I hold…..It’s like God made me and said “ TAAA DAAA ! “…..hahahahaha

I definitely understand not fitting in…..and I think everybody has their own version of feeling out of place…ahhhhh…..It’s OK to be in that awkward phase…..! Black sheep….white sheep…whatever!

Well….I know a few white sheeps’…..they aren’t as white as they appear….


I know a few people , who alternatively tell me that they sometimes don’t understand what I write …..or what I mean to say….It’s all about figuring it out……your way……and if you can’t ……then there’s always a code …..a thought to the self…..take a deep breath …..and whisper….” Abba dabba jabba….!

Hahahahaha.


The title is right actually …..At least for me ….you know ?.....The tipsy topsy situations , I’ve been through…..

Situations which had no meaning …..situations which went as a bouncer………even wondering what hit me …!..all I could do was muster courage and pant loudly……oooohhhhh……was that just …abba dabba jabba…?

Please agree …if this works for you as well….!


Hey….have you been in a situation , where two people are taking a picture of you …..and you don’t know which camera to look at ?..........Well…..say cheeeeese……..and they’ll understand !.....

And I know what you are thinking now…..! hahahahaha

After this is over ……and when we speak …..I’m sure we’ll address each other with ……you know what..!


But trust me , some unusual encounters are worth saving …..right ?.....We can always relate and check the saved ones later…..that’s  relatively motivating …..( now I am starting to motivate – how boring )

 

People judge others with actions , appearances , speech….there’s always a fear in us that others will judge in a negative way……….hmmmmmmm….guess , no one wants to be perceived as unintelligent or incompetent.


Having said that , we have learnt to navigate and overcome these judgments, these passes………and for the rest of it all…..

there’s always Abba Dabba Jabba…..around


“ Yaani ke Tere Abba ne mujhe bewakoof banaya aur ye dabba mujhe thama diya hai..? “

-Johny Lever


Laugh out loud ….while it lasts ….

Hahahahahahaha.

"The Writer's Block"

-
  A   friend recently took me aside and made a point. He was not worried about how I would react. I was nervous too. Of what he would say to me.. Then he made a point …… He asked me to continue writing . He asked me why I had stopped publishing what I used to do before. People out there are looking forward to what I write….Now he wanted me to get going and write… This has prompted me to write and publish again what I lost and missed…. To hell with the ‘Writer’s Block’. When I listened to him that day, I understood that Writer’s Block was not the problem.. The problem laid in ‘not writing anything at all’ ! What I understand is that the only people who think writing is easy are those people who don’t write at all !   No ? The ‘writers block ‘ is not the problem here. It is the fear of not writing well. I am not here for an award or an accolade, I am here because I write and somehow I stopped in between. My audiences here today, may seem a little surprised……but that’s...

The Heart story

-
  Everybody knows now ….. today , it’s an old story..!.. But concerned people still ask me how I feel and how I am faring with my health …….. I’ve been deliberately taking some time   out here…..you know ?.....giving me some space….. giving myself , that much needed ‘ME ‘ time…. I exercised right ….I ate right ….no cheating foods in between hours….my colleagues at office can vouch for me….no oil , no much sweet , no much sour or hot things…. Then why did I get that stroke , when I got one ? You know , I’ve read it somewhere …… that having an Heart Attack is like a surprise party… where , except for presents , you get an ambulance ride ….! Hahahahaha.. I guess , my heart couldn’t handle all the excitement in my life ….ummmm….too many of them ……It was time to switch to a boring routine……..! It had me boggled over and over again…..Why me ? Why ….after all these years ……….I smoked ….all right ! But then last time I checked ( you know where )   …..….my lungs were clear a...

Other Words !

  After some good days ….more news from the planet ! The red hot Sun is turning into dark red and thus spoiling the get-togethers we usually have from 10:00 Am to 7:00 PM……no ? Is it out of context ?…..Yeah….I know ….this is not me……how do I convert myself from a boring article writer to what’s happening at the core of our planet ?    Not me ! Boring ….yeah….getting older , day by day ..ummm….actually I don’t mind getting older ….you know !...but my body is taking it badly….hahahahahaha….! You feel like your warranty has expired and the parts are beginning to wear out ! I was reading a story on Jesse Owens and how he defeated the German athlete Luz Long at the 1936 Olympics in Germany. Hitler was mad at Long , but he bowed down to Jesse and congratulated him in full view of the crowd. Luz Long and Jesse became best friends and when WW2 started , Long wrote a letter to Jesse from the war front. He wrote “ ( paraphrased by me ) I want to meet my wife. I have not seen my...
