So many modes of lives and people. Amidst everything and nothing happening in my life i realized a little more. While India wakes up to the fact that becoming an engineer or a doctor is not just THE means to earning, being a cricketer or a TV artist are other alternate paths. Its easy to say that east moves west and west moves east; the sine-wave is so perennial! ( if this weird cycles that run in my head interest this read this ) I met my ex-boss yesterday and one of the offshoots of the convo brought back his ideology on the fore ground that you should be clear as to what you want in your life in the next 1-2-5-10 years! Only then you'll head there! While i was juggling to find out myself, weather i liked mumbai or delhi or chandigarh or europe or Japan as a place to settle down in my life after changing four jobs i still dont know if i like this one or what i reely wanna do in my lief! Junji was saying that day while telling my his dad in law in chandigarh fell reely ill and

The awakening

I was telling Junji, talking to him yesterday; that how lifes meaning can change immidiately by change of perception of : our simple looking complex views ( and complex looking simple views as well) ( gosh!! why am i always liek this!!) He told me," राजन सर भी यही के रहे थे जब मई उन्हें मिला दिल्ली में " इट्स कॉल्ड the awakening! We laughed! But it remains!! If I, today, decide to chuck everything..... then...? this customer was telling me the other day , "now that i have put that 10000 sq feet land on rent, i have a constant income i have made my future safe" My colleague said, " वोह तो आप पिछली बरी भी कह रहे थे " I Smiled to self! It never ends.. does it? Why dont i stop worrying about making my fuuture safe, and just use the money i have to travel the world! Vsisit Japan, go Europe backpacking. And live by doing whatever oddjobs are needed to earn a living! Its a means to an end na?

rain

It was another on the bucketlist, i thought. walked for half an hour in the rain. Just got up and walked out, it was pouring I wacthed all around me people, trying to cover themselves from water. rushing out of shops into cars.... so that they dont get wet and here I was. went to the atm, the gaurd said, आप तोः पूरा भीग गए ! i wore my glasses to see the atm, ha! walked out and walked and walked. solitude and rain. it was intresting

Are you having a bad day?

When you have a really bad day when you just need to take it out on someone! Don't take that bad day out on someone you know, take it out on someone you DON'T know... Now get this. I was sitting at my desk, when I remembered a phone call I had to make. I found thenumber and dialed it. A man answered saying, "Hello?" I politely said, "This is Fred Hanifin and could I please speak to Robin Carter?" Suddenly the phone was slammed down on me! I couldn't believe that anyonecould be that rude. I tracked down Robin's correct number and called her. She had transposed the last two digits incorrectly. After I hung up with Robin, I spotted the wrong number still lying there on my desk. I decided to call it again.When the same person oncemore answered, I yelled "You're an asshole!" and hung up. Next to his phone number I wrote the word "asshole," and put it in my desk drawer. Every couple of weeks, when I was paying bills, or had a really
