My life is one long walk down a road,
Down a road whose destination is not known;
Not knowing where I go has been the fun,
The fun is what that keeps me going.
I often have found people to walk with me,
To walk with me on an otherwise lonely road;
Lonely road it has been when there was none,
There was none to speak or listen to.
My path has often been chosen by other people,
Other people who have their own path to follow;
To follow them gives me more time with them,
With them have I had many a cherished memories.
I have no clue where am supposed to go,
To go left or right is not my concern,
Not my concern for this I know well,
I know well that only the journey matters.

Random
Just a few random thoughts here..
If something goes too well, it means you are going to face a whole new level of comedy soon.
Being an introvert denies you a few joy. And a lot of trouble.
Give something a lot of thought and you will f it up.
If you are good at something, there is always someone better at it.
Life is not a sin curve to have an up, a normal and a low. It is a tan curve with an all-time-high followed by an all-time-low to gradually high again.
Mates before muffs. Our mates know it, the other doesn't.
They say we must be like the phoenix which rises again from its ashes. They don't tell you that the phoenix is born again as a baby and has to struggle for a while before reaching its prime again.
What is life is but a dream :)
A confused mind is a disease. It soon makes the others confused too.
You can write a blog out of anything in your life :P
Everything ends. Except nothing.
Noetics?
9:58 pm. Sunday the 27th,2009.
He was busy reading The Lost Symbol. It had been long time since he had been so engrossed in a book. It told him a fascinating idea about the power of the mind. "Like matter, the thoughts in a brain also contain mass. This 'particle' if focussed correctly could be used to alter physical matter..."
His concentration was suddenly broken when out of no where two loud speakers started singing loudly and rather annoyingly. He tried his best to ignore it. "Thus if the mind is trained well and made to focus on a particular thought, it can be used to affect the outcome of an event. While this may seem like advanced magic it.." Darn loud speakers, he thought. What the f*** did they ever actually accomplish. "..has already been mentioned in the ancient literatures itself. One only needed to see the Vedas or the Bible or any other similar text. They say the same..".Arr how I wish they shut the loudspeakers.And just like that, the loudspeakers started malfunctioning and was forcibly switched off.
"Our fore fathers have always believed that the mind held supernatural po..".Wait a minute. Did I just shut the loudspeakers using my mind. Did that happen because a lot of minds in my area thought the same?.Maybe I do possess super powers,his heart said. You need to get some sleep, said his intellect.

No Single Soul
My life for long has been so bare,
For none came to show me some care,
Life for me had once been much better,
For I got no single soul to talk.
I feel my old friends are very far away,
For they have all gone their own way;
Now I have these new people 'round me,
Yet I got no single soul to talk.
Few people did make me open my mind,
And they all seemed to be very kind;
But in the end all I feel is regret,
So I got no single soul to talk.
They seemed to find my words so funny,
Yet every word I said was said in pain;
They made jokes of my memories and so,
Now I got no single soul to talk.

The Reality Of New Year
As a new year is about to dawn on us and a portion of city is on the streets in the name of "party", I sit here in the tranquility of my house along with my family feeling a mixture of amusement and confusion at this uncanny behavior shown towards the concept of New Year for I cannot quite fathom what a change in the third column of date can quite possibly bring.
Yes I understand what New Year means. Scientifically, it denotes the completion of the Earth's rotation around the Sun (neglecting of course the 1/4th extra distance); teenagically another chance to have great fun with friends; parentically it denotes a sudden increase in the expenditure column and the hopes of better fortune come the new year; grandparentically it means calls from their children; commercially, time to cash in.
Though every New Year is welcomed with a bang, all the party and merriment ends as quickly as it "bang" and finally ceases into a quiet, calm day - just like any other. Come Jan 2nd, we all return to the everyday routine - the same commute, the same job, the same everything. Two consecutive days, two totally different ways of living it. How human.
Of course that's only one view of seeing things. And every coin has two sides to it right?
Every one makes mistakes. It is only human to do so. And we need a fresh start more than once to properly sort things out. New Year is one way of mentally giving ourselves that "fresh start". For doesn't New Year indicate the wonderful beginning of another set of 365 days with a clean slate? It fills people with hope, joy and above all a sense of togetherness.
Jan 1st is the day when we both look back on the past while contemplating the future, all being done in the present. It gives us that all important chance of analyzing what we have done, what we are doing and what we are going to do.
As the fire crackers begin to fly, channels showing people jumping around i come to the end of this year now. And I as I want this to be the last thing I do, I have only one more thing to say.
Cheers, ppl.

THE Duel
Ever since my childhood i have wondered about God and science and the conflicts between them. This poem is based on this ever debated topic.
"Only God can save you", said my heart,
My brain to that replied "that's rubbish";
Between these two voices was I caught,
For I did not know which was gibberish.
My heart said that God really existed,
A proof my brain immediately demanded;
"Look around you, the things He has created!"
"Evolution and time are the true creator".
"If God did exist, tell me why,
Why are there thieves and killers?
And why so many innocent die
When God is indeed a true lover?"
"It is a test that we all must take,
For only to live is our duty and
Leave the rest to Him for our sake
As He created this life and this sand"
Thus raged the battle within me forever,
And I knew not which one to trust,
For both were filled with power;
I will know only when I go to dust.

The Dying Man
This is something i wrote some time back when i had left my mind to
wander...
The stars on the sky he was counting,
Lying on the river bed of a river red;
In his heart he knew he was dying,
As a bright darkness engulfed his eyes.
He had often wondered what death brings,
Now for the moment of truthness come,
Waited he with broken heart,dead brain
Saw scenes,vaguely familiar were some.
As doom approached,a voice spoke in him
"Chasing ever a dream i lived my life,
Found it not for i knew it not,that
Life is folly,life is full of sorrows"
"I was born unknown, now die unknown
Just like a worm,though I in the end
Was brought down by treachery,like many;
Betrayal-the gift for all acts by me"
His heart was delirious,his mind clear
"We live everyday only to die one day,
One day we die for others to live everyday
Thus goes on the endless circle of life"
"We try to answer questions before we die,
And find the answers only after we die"
Thus realizing,he forgave and forgot all
With truth realized,he smiled...
