I woke up this morning, On a Philosophical note…

November 25, 2009 at 11:16 am (Uncategorized)

Been a while… But i’m getting regular at this irregular form o’ blogging..!

I’m wondering if I should let it pass by just blaming it on my nearly lost concentration span.. Well.. that’s an altogether different issue.

What I want to post today is concerned with the way I woke up this morning – On a Philosophical note..

I’d woken much earlier than usual, this morning.
It is a good thing. I’d been egging myself to do it since a couple o’ weeks now..
But human vice, lethargy, always managed to catch up!!

Anyhow, like I’d mentioned already.. I woke up this morning, on a Philosophical note.

I looked at the time and it said 5.43 a.m.
I wanted to stop the string o’ thoughts  that threatened to take o’er my sleep.
However, Thoughts V/S Sleep.. a few nano seconds into the tussle… and Thoughts won the round to make me realize, I’m Awake!

I think.
I’m given the simple choice o’ waking up OR going back to bed. It is the choice I make that defines me at that moment.  And in that way, it is simple small things like this, choices I make, that eventually defines me as a person.
All I had to do was choose between a Good habit and a… well…  Not-that-Bad-a-habit ..

Well, what the heck?
I chose the ‘Not-that-Bad-a-habit’, turned over and forced shut my eyes… .. only to wake ten minutes later and decide to begin off with my day…
On the bright side, it’d been a while since I’d seen the Sunrise, and I sure didn’t miss it today!  :)

 

This post’s but a simple realization in the wee hours o’ the morning, of ‘one-o’-those-small-things-that-paint-the-big-picture-in-the-end’..

A writer’s dilemma…

May 11, 2009 at 4:06 pm (Uncategorized)

well… call it a writer’s dilemma.. 

else, what would you name a syndrome, where a thousand thoughts are continuously running through your head… you are searching for the perfect inspiration to get back to your used & abused keyboard…  
thoughts race.. .. pictures flash… u find a reason… … BUT,  its not good enough…….

and then there are the half chewed at drafts… 
[yea... somewhere down there.. that's how i'd like to decribe it.... ] 

This is what long breaks do to you…  

hmm… have i lost it…?? I donnoo…
Am i gonna revive it…??? I want to..  

and I thought.. what more can i begin with .. than the ‘writer’s dilemma’…..

only to put myself to some use, and get back to those chewed bits…….

Troubled Chaos

January 29, 2009 at 11:50 pm (emOtiOnS)

I’d tell you how it feels like to be suddenly consumed by a violent choking force…
I’d tell you how hard it is to breathe, when you know the whole world’s crashed in your wake…
I’d tell you how my story’s going to change…. How I’ve lost the plot today…
And how I’m not able to bring myself to be picked up from a ragged destiny that awaits…..

My voice’s just tiny….
Nobody wants to listen to me…
Not even my own conscience.

I am troubled.
So deep, that I’m afraid, I’m plunging headlong into it…….

Club 99. Registrations??? ;)

December 26, 2008 at 10:21 pm (RanDom XpreSsiOnS)

How often do you stop to think of why you are doing what you are doing?
I mean, in one o’ those, thought provoking long term thinking times…
Getting a wee bit confusing here, isn’t it??

Here’s a story…..

Once upon a time, there lived a King who, despite his luxurious lifestyle, was neither happy nor content.

One day, the King came upon a servant who was singing happily while he worked. This fascinated the King; why was he, the Supreme Ruler of the Land, unhappy and gloomy, while

A lowly servant had so much joy. The King asked the servant, ” Why are you so happy?”

The man replied, ” Your Majesty, I am nothing but a servant, but my family and I don’t need too much – just a roof over our heads and warm food to fill our tummies .”

The king was not satisfied with that reply. Later in the day, he sought the advice of his most trusted advisor. After hearing the King’s woes and the servant’s story, the advisor said, ” Your Majesty, I believe that the servant has not been made part of The 99 Club.”

” The 99 Club? And what exactly is that?” the King inquired.

The advisor replied, ” Your Majesty, to truly know what The 99 Club is, place 99 Gold coins in a bag and leave it at this servant’s doorstep.”

When the servant saw the bag, he took it into his house. When he opened the bag, he let out a great shout of joy… So many gold coins!

He began to count them. After several counts, he was at last convinced that there were 99 coins. He wondered, ” What could’ve happened to that last gold coin? Surely, no one would leave 99 coins! “

He looked everywhere he could, but that final coin was elusive. Finally, exhausted, he decided that he was going to have to work harder than ever to earn that gold coin and complete his collection.

From that day, the servant’s life was changed. He was overworked, horribly grumpy, and castigated his family for not helping him make that 100th gold coin. He stopped singing while he worked.

Witnessing this drastic transformation, the King was puzzled. When he sought his advisor’s help, the advisor said, ” Your Majesty, the servant has now officially joined The 99 Club. “

He continued, ” The 99 Club is a name given to those people who have enough to be happy but are never contented, because they’re always yearning and striving for that extra 1 telling to themselves: “Let me get that one final thing and then I will be happy for life .”

We can be happy, even with very little in our lives, but the minute we’re given something bigger and better, we want even more!
We lose our sleep, our happiness, we hurt the people around us; all these as a price for our growing needs and desires.
That’s what joining The 99 Club is all about………”

However, closing with this thought…. If man did not join the elite ‘Club 99′, would progress have ever happened ??

The 2 kinds of people…

September 3, 2008 at 8:25 pm (RanDom XpreSsiOnS, ThOughTs) ()

This had been a little while back… I’d been riding over to a friend’s place..
On my way, while I’d been stuck in the traffic, my glance fell on this woman..

Call her a tramp, beggar, nomad, anything that you wish…
But there, on the road side, she sat.. under the shade of an overtly less attractive tree.

She was oblivious to the surroundings, the sounds, the blaring horns, the stares…
Lost in her own world, all she was doing was picking at the grass and murmuring to herself..

Looking at her got me thinking for a while.. She looked like she was into her early 40′s. However, that dejected, ‘she’s done with life and things cannot get any different’ expression was there on her face…
This made me think of how her life’s not been fruitful, of how she’d have spent an eternity doing only what she knows best, ‘Begging’, of how insignificant a role she’s played in this world apart from the fact that she’s existed…

This’d only induced me to think of the two different kinds of people who are born to form a part of this world…

One, the kind who are born to lead lives as it flows, letting things be, going through the different processes of life of growing up, education, getting a job, getting married, having kids and going onto dying of old age…
The other, the kind who does about the same thing as the above, but live to live passionately… the kind who’d look at the world with a purpose to contribute to mankind something substantial, or the kind who’d want to make a difference in other people’s lives for their betterment, or the kind who’d not want to give up ever, but keep fighting through every facet….

People more or less fall into these two categories. I’m not saying, the first doesn’t serve any purpose to their existence. They’re definitely here to appreciate the goods or deeds of the second kind…

I exist.

June 10, 2008 at 2:11 am (RanDom XpreSsiOnS)

  • I did not disappear. It was merely a break to refresh my Nonsensical skills
  • Nope, blogs don’t get deleted off with prolonged neglect.
  • My scheming skills have sharpened too.
  • Time & tide waits for no man. [I have no idea why i just put it in there.]
  • Creativity gets vaguer with every effort used to define it.
  • I’ve been busy & constructive for most parts of all days. I’ve switched automatically to destructive mode for the other parts.
  • My victims have been vandalized non-end. A slow obliteration is my subjective option.
  • I still am not intimidated my vampires, do not like cats, think needles are the worst invention, do not believe in the lizards’ superstition and will add onto this more when I begin collecting my thoughts holistically.
  • I haven’t learnt to swim, move salsa, karate chop or even dangle onto the edge of a building while I balance an egg at the tip of my nose during this inconspicuous period.
  • And i had to write that my cell’s dictionary doesn’t have the spelling of ‘mango’ in it. [discovered long time ago though]

I’m Back!!!!!
