Thanks for Treating us Well.

Lately I watched a movie known as The Stoning of Soraya. The movie is about how women in some parts of the world face irresistible torture (Stoning in the film), how they are over powered and how hundreds of women went through such tortures. Stoning , or lapidation, is a form of capital punishment whereby a group throws stones at a person until the person dies. This punishment is one of many uncivil punishments, imposed to offenders in some parts of the world. Slower than other forms of execution, stoning is a form of execution by torture . Women’s vulnerability and helplessness is clearly portrayed in the movie (I am not going to talk about the whole movie here). Women are considered low; they are made to live in their husband’s authority and treated like slaves, not life partners.   Despite many human rights protests and Conventions against women, this type of practice seems to still exist in some corners of the world. Women are tormented in the name of God and Religion. ...

Facebook fever?

Image
Visiting the FACE with a BOOK to write on (our real face don't have it), has become like a addiction to me. At first it was interesting but now I am kind of fed up with it but still my day seems incomplete If I don't visit it. Its like there will be attendance or like I am going to miss a big time from history If I don't log in there.  Open facebook and you will be stuck in there, whether you have friends to chat or not. At first it was quite reluctant to chat with anonymous or unknown people but now one don't have to know the other to chat. Sometimes i feel like I am in an interview, with never ending questions one after another. At times its interesting meeting new people but more annoying. While it has both pros and cons according to how we use it, If we think hard there are million of things that could happen there. While we can keep in touch with our friends and family, existing relationship, we can make new relationships and sometimes break relationships to...

The Lady - Aung San Suu Kyi.

Image
"The Lady" is a worshipful film about the Myanmar opposition leader , Aung San Suu Kyi by Luc Besson. Aung San Suu Kyi is a Burmese dissident and pro- democracy leader who is now the opposition leader of Burma.  The film follows Suu Kyi's long journey towards Burma's Democracy, the years she spent under house arrest, her message of nonviolence in the face of a violently repressive regime, and the sacrifices she made for her political passion. Ms. Aung San Suu Kyi  was played by Michelle Yeoh and referred to as Suu in the movie. The movie starts with a  scene which depicts the death of Suu’s father, Aung San, a nationalist hero, who was assassinated by rivals in the Burmese army in 1947, when his daughter(Suu) was a child. Aung San Suu Kyi is first presented as a housewife and a scholar, wife of an academic, Michael Aris, who is a leading western scholar on Bhutanese, Himalayan and Tibetan culture.  She gets a call that her mother is dyin...

She is still a NEW BRIDE to me.

Image
It's been a year and I'm still awestruck by our Royal Bride. Her simple being, simple beauty and her simple way of everything leaves me mesmerized, even if it's just looking at her portrait.  I feel like the wedding just happened yesterday. She is still a new bride to me. Time flew off like a flash and in this 1 year, I hope our royal couple might have had a cherish-able time together. I would like to wish your majesties a very happy life ahead and pray that your lovely union will bring immense happiness to Bhutan and Bhutanese. May this unification be always magnificent......A VERY HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! 

Hidden version of Dechen - The real me......

There is a hidden Dechen inside me who comes out quite frequently these days. The usual me is what I am always but there exists a hidden version of me also. This does not mean I change moods and I have two faces, I don't want people to understand me this way (gig). I always thought I am what I am and there's no other me in me but I was wrong. There is another me in me. Unlike in usual moments, that unusual me comes out astonishingly sometimes. When people bring me down, when people create unnecessary miscommunication, when incidents occur involving personal greed and dishonesty, having draining relationships, and of course my own negativity. I used to be an easy girl, someone who accepts almost everything, someone who says OK and fine to everything without thinking much. Now, I realize that I am no more the same.  I sometimes wonder, " Is this the identification that my ego is rising?" I sometimes assume myself going the wrong way. Many times I had to conjecture ...

My mother......my angel

Image
    You have always been there, from the day I was born and still I am nothing without you though I have to live without you now. You call to say hello You accepts me as I am That helps me to know deep down how much you really care You never let me lose hope You've always gave me courage You taught me to live life  and to love living. Even though I might not say it, I really appreciate all you do So powerfully blessed is how I feel for having a mother like you. When I'm a mom I hope I'll be like you.............I am missing you a Lot.

Is this My Strength or Weakness?

Well! I am 20 years old now and I still get wronged many times. I don't know whether it is my Strength or weakness to forgive people so easily. I forgive and forget easily when something bad happens or when some one hurts me. I have been considering this as my strength till now but I realize now that this is a great weakness sometimes. I get into abusive relationships because I am, in a way too forgiving. I meet again and again with the same wrong person because I forget what had happened in the past and take it for granted that they will not repeat the same. I was taught that by forgiving someone we are letting them off easy for what they have done.  When we don’t forgive others we are really harming no one but ourselves. While you are angry, hurt and frustrated about what has been done to you, the other person is enjoying life. While you are wasting time thinking about them, they are enjoying life not thinking about you. Forgiveness means letting go of the anger and d...

My Life time Resolution.

Image
The start of a new year feels so momentous: 365 brand-new days, with no mistakes in them. There's so much opportunity: opportunities to live up to our full potential, to make extra effort, to repair bonds with family and friends. I set personal goals to reform my bad habits, to complete my assignments on time, to always be honest to myself, to help others as much as possible and so on. This year I only kept one resolution, that is to overcome Cynophobia . To me Dogs are monsters. I don't know why I am afraid of them but I find them frightening and unpredictable. It's not that I hate them, I tried to Love them, go near them, in fact I brought Dogs whenever I gifted anyone especially this year. Dogs are plenty in Bhutan, where ever we go and people don't give damn, and i think my phobia is ridiculous... I set this as my resolution this year but its almost end of the year now, I am still the same. I've already failed my this year's resolution and i guess...

L’il Masters - Sure They Are.

Image
Dance India Dance Season 2, proved a very lucky occasion for my favorite contestant, Prince Ki Palton Star Faisal Khan from Mumbai. A very intense and passionate finish to the evening brought the crown to the best of the Top 5 Finalists. This reality show was one show i can't help watching. As the name of the Show says,they are sure MASTERS!   Apart from the priceless exposure and the golden opportunity to showcase their talent in front of the world, the finalists of DID L’il Masters have walked away with a bounty of prizes unlike in Bhutan. Although we are far behind I can compare this show to One of Bhutanese reality show TALENT HUNT, which had impressive kids with loads of talents. The first runner up was Om Chetry, who always give challenges, Cute Chinese Doll Soumya Rai and Junior Comedian plus Micheal Jackson Jeet Das who is a good flirt from this young..haha..i miss this show a lot. And as Expected the Season 2 Team- Yahoo won the Battle of The Baaps! Roh...

Chechong and Hard Work

Image
My friend Chechong. The year we are born only marks our entry into the world. Other years we have to prove our worth and make our life worth living. In life Sometimes there's not a better way, Sometimes there's only the hard way and the hard way I believe is Hard Work . In the midst of all activities and responsibilities we forget who we are and what we should do. My Friend Chechong Tshering is the most Hard working person I encountered in my whole life. He believes "There is No Substitute to Hard work" and he means it. He is smart but not really smart yet he is on top of / ahead of many of us. He is one person we can look up to as a model in terms of Hard Work and Sincerity. His Hard Work is the contributing aspect to his Charm.  I admire his Principle of Hard Work and wish i can adopt that too..... Hope he will continue the same and I bet his Hard work will surely help him Shine in life.I see wisdom in Babe Ruth's saying,“It's hard to beat a perso...

I Found My Charm!!!

I remember the day, Your eyes choose me To be your friend You have coloured my days. As the sailors loves the walls so wild, As the mother loves her wayward child,   Though my feelings are so strong, I Found my Missing Piece........ My words are weak and wrong. The happiness I get from you, Transport me up to the skies, My days of soul searching are over, I have at last found my fire fighter, OH! MY BELOVED, I AM LOST IN YOUR CHARM…….
