Death

This does not plague our mind like many others.

Why? We’ve got more important things to do, that’s why!

But, if you think about it, an average person just gives death a fleeting thought. It is sombre and morbid.

No one ponders over a satire and forlorn topic such as this just for kicks.It sometimes runs through your head for hours, for days on end.

Suppose I were to be dead within the hour, how would I spend it?

What would I do? What would I say?

What have I achieved in this short time span?

Who will cry for me when they hear of my death?

Who will visit?

Who will console?

These remain to be seen. (Ironic, hehe)

Have I made a lasting impact?

Have I made people happy?

Have I made people proud?

Have I made people smile with my presence?

Have I taken pleasure in everything I have done so far?

Have I noticed the intricacies of things?

Have I noticed the simple beauty of Life?

Have I laughed till I cried?

Have I shed a tear for someone I love?

Have I loved someone dearly enough?

The answer to all these queries would be, Yes.

So, do I have any regrets?

Truth is, No, I don’t have any regrets.

Dreamin’ in December

The perfect words never cross my mind.

Which is maybe why, I jot down those disconnected thoughts on a parchment while practically being debaucher.

Its crazy.

Somehow, sometimes you don’t have anything to post on and it seems like you can ramble on without a resolution.

As I sit at my desk, thoughts go flying at the speed of sound.

It’s like a brainstorming session in progress at an office.

The lights flicker on the lawn of a nearby apartment and Barnaby road is illuminated as ever.

December brings with it the usual chilliness, which is felt around ever so slightly.

It feels extremely dichotomous, It’s pleasant yet nippy.

Stumbling still, my eyes chance upon the reflection in a neighbors window.

This ambivert, quintessential bugger staring at a mirrored perspective – himself.

Squint eyed and critical of the unkempt gollywog-ish styled hair and being half baked still changing, all just for Her.

But without you,

It’s a waste of time.”

Scarborough Fair Canticle

Simon and Garfunkel.

This is one song which I’ve fallen madly in love with, ever since I first heard it 15 years ago on my father’s old radio.

It still remains the favorite of both my father and me.

Timeless classic.

It brought tears to my eyes then and still does, every time I listen to it.

Only the One who has truly Loved and for that Love, to be a requiem, would understand exactly what the song really means.

“She once was a true love of mine”

And you still are.

Always will be.

Spectacular. Brings back the memories tenfold.

“Now the Sky can be Blue, can be Grey,

I don’t mind.

But without you,

It’s a waste of time.”

Cheers! =)

Tolerance

I just got back from watching a Pro-Islamic movie called Kurbaan (In Hindi)

It had a really thought provoking message, trust me.

The world is at strife, with nations pitted against each other with accusations being hurled across the continents.

It’s difficult to believe that the situation in Iraq is still the same.

Islam is a religion like any other and has its own set of teachings and preaching.

All religions are peaceful and none of them promote hate, intolerance and fundamentalism.

Construing religion is a difficult proposition with many a person differing in their view.

Be it the hard-core, the devout, the agnostic or the atheist.

I am half Brahmin and half Christian.

And bloody proud of my religion, which is both.

* Though soon to be only one —-> Hinduism *

The milk of human kindness flows in every quart of my veins.

I love all the people I know and I accept them for who they are.

I am no Hippie and I don’t get stoned.

It’s the MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR

Benny sang,

“AH, It’s the most wonderful time of the year!” – FOR CHRISTMAS

I’m singing it because, it’s me HOLIDAYS!

Days and days of nothingness! Don’t you just love it when you have no reason to wake up early in the morning everday?

Plans and plans GALORE! It feels so right =)

But, there’s one tiny-little, baby-little hiccup. Take into account the ‘M‘ factor.

Ah, but what’s spending a few bucks of your pocket-money to the joy of  ”not looking/touching your books for a fortnight!” eh?!

Cheers =)

Leaks like a Sieve

One didn’t call to wish me luck in the morning, yesterday. BUGGER!

Came back home, after doing shite-like in one of my core subjects (S.S).

Bugger, ill pass though.

Just scrape through.

Pampered myself by not doing anything yesterday.

Just saw two movies and started Dl.ing Inglorious Basterds.

Spoke to mum about the stuff I’m gonna get from the US through my Uncle.

Ordered Madurai chicken from the nearby Paramount and some Chicken lollipop’s.

Pepsi to go with it.

Crouching  Tiger Hidden Dragon. (Chou Yun Fat was really good, so was Michelle Yeoh)

Never replied to any text messages from anyone yesterday except the ones from my Classmate about tickets for 2012 on Monday and my Best Friend at 11 30 in the night.

Got 43 unread still.

Chris Norman – Midnight Lady when i was showering. (That explains my previous post)

Reminiscing a previous encounter with a special someone.

I shed a single tear.

Trickled down the cheek with unusual slowness.

Water on a duck’s back.

Fuck it.

No more brooding.

Not on her, not on my cocked up exam.

Crashed at 12 30 early today.

Woke up at 11.

Made some tea, toasted bread’s still lying on my table since then.

Saw the Pub scene from Inglorious Basterds (almost done).

Amazing, Vintage Tarantino with the long take.

Read a friend’s blog.

Encouraged to write this.

Bugger, my first post which looks like a diary entry minus the time.

Fuck, I leak like a Sieve.

I.B.’s done now.

Gonna shut off the computer.

Shhoowwweeerrr!

How many of you love to have to have baths atleast twice a day if not more times?

How many of you feel so carefree and refreshed after a bath?

How many of you love to sing, dance and jive while in the shower?

How many of you can rival karaoke singers?

How many of you can feel real peace and solace in the water that runs through?

How many of you listen to music while you’re in the shower?

How many of you multi-task while bathing?

How many of you slip and slide on the floor just for fun?

How many of you can’t help running your hands through your hair while in the shower?

How many of you are mesmerized by the beauty called a Shower?

My Shower! =D

C’est La Vie

Why do you win some?
Why do you lose some?

[A PICTURE I HAD, BUT THE PERSON IN IT MIGHT NOT APPROVE]

Although, there is something you don’t know.

That is just a small thing you think and feel and do.

You wait.

Wait until the end of time.

All for none, but you.

Ah, but Life must go on, C’est la Vie!

“Now the Sky can be Blue, can be Grey,

I don’t mind.

But without you,

It’s a waste of time.”

Love, Actually

No, I’m not here to talk about the movie. (My favorite, incidentally)
A long hiatus.

I’m back from wherever, to my blogging atmosphere with this post on True Love - What it is, What it means to me and Why it is important, not just to me, but to everyone else in this World.

Innumerable quotes from songs, movies, skits, plays and whatnot, our definition of Love is altered as per current day needs/aspirations/subjective wants etc etc, so on and so forth. God , I KNOW, I can go on forever!

Okay, now Ill stop being the blithering idiot and come to the point, shall I?

Honestly, when you come to think of it, such an uncomplicated Feeling or the more  plausible, an Ability, is so…so Pure that it has the common origin, a common meaning, only different variants for the word.

Why is it so important that everyone keeps looking for it, these days?

Answer 1: The purpose of life, to me.

Answer 2: Sharing, Sacrifices,  Emotional support, Similarities, Differences, Fights, Pick-me-up-when-I’m-down’s, Grief, Passion, Zest and the most important, Happiness.

I’m for both.

But you ask me, what is True Love?

I reply, Its US!

Shakespeare (The Greatest Quoted ever, I say) said

“Love is not Love which Alters when Alteration finds,

Or bends with the Remover to remove,

O No! It is an ever-fixed mark,

That looks on tempest and is never Shaken.“

(Sonnet 116)

What that means, in quintessence, is that if the Love that you feel for somebody else is True, It should be as unshakable as Will Power.

You could be accepted. Then again, Not.

Whatever the outcome, take heart.

You might not want to move on, neither would you want to give up.

I  never give up easily.

Although, that is not a reason for you to let go immediately.

Try. Again and again and again.

Never-ever stop and lose hope. Because, the minute you lose hope, you lose yourself.

Even if it’s not yours, wait for it to become yours.

It’s bloody painful, it will be.

Wait, wait and wait for however long it takes, because that’s True Love.

At the dirge,

I’m actually yours,

still yours,

forever yours,

ever yours,

faithfully.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LOVE =)

“Now the Sky can be Blue, can be Grey,

I don’t mind.

But without you,

It’s a waste of time.”

You may actually say no.

But I’ll wait, for as long as it takes, I’ll wait till you say Yes.

Cheers! =)
