Though how much we notice this or ignore, but every single day ends with a lesson learnt.

After so many months of rigorous self-analysis and too much self honing, I learnt a purvey lesson each time. (The only lesson I carried forward best to my memory chip.)

Between the two devils, human tendency is to go for the one never tried before!!!

Well, I ain’t any odder, but my idea of relations is pretty similar.. At some point of time if it starts to choke (trust me it surely does once and then over and over again), I alter towards someone new altogether. Obviously there is an upper limit to every other thing we count on and that’s why everything comes with an expiry date! All one needs to do is look beyond those flashy shimmering wrappers of relations for the end dates. And Aight, you got me!!

For those who do not agree more, the intoxication is a sheer matter of Subjects!

Look what you got!

Sometimes you just don’t seem to know what is more enticing.. the future or the present?
Like this “Once upon a time click”! Can you tell here what actually is more alluring..  ‘Road ahead’ or ‘The trees aside’?
The road seemingly say “come and explore!”
While Trees, kind of insist on “sit for a while!”

Aint so?

As one of my friend once came up with the fact, An average man spends more time in thinking about present than that spent on future and past, both.. i.e. functionally

(Thinking Time about past + Thinking time for future) < Thinking time of Present

in equations. I may not follow this computation but definitely am keen to enjoy whatever I have now as my Present! Ultimately how we take life is all that counts.. And everyone knows factually, Life is hard and it anyways going to kill us in the end. So why not rest some while in tree shade and enjoy the scenic? All we need to do is stop future worries and forget bygones, instead look around to realize what we have got and enjoy every moment of it before it goes by as bygones or adds onto tantalizing-memories of future! Well I know am no odder but probably an odd of all odds.

As you can make out of my last post, it actually took me 3 months to realize ‘Life is a simple Glib’!

Sent-Off

They say: Speak up when angry and you will make the best speech ever. In my angst I write, because by the time I realize, am left with none to spit out. A few favor me by choosing soft option: It’s much easier to write when you’re sad. But you can end up isolated and depressed because you almost need to put yourself in that situation to have that angst to write from.

Feelings are meant to be shown and advertised rather than hiding ‘em out in your local.

Oh wait!

Is that the reason why my posts are so outrageous? No wonder none ever remarked even a single one as commendable! Normally, I don’t have much to complain about, just these existential angst, sometimes.

Apparently, I do have that want for writing, but freshly have nothing to write about. Past few days months have been utterly on my nerves. Waved bye to my close friend best friend boy friend yesterday and got fed up of goodbyes, which are over-flooded with unusual realizations and left upon theories. And unlike other times, the feeling was incomplete with a complete ‘nothingness’.

People say speak up when you hold up the chance. I believe I never stood a chance… in fact I’m so full of waving that I actually waved my damned chance off. Off to the cliff of my dreams. Well, this is what I actually wanted and well deserved.

“Oh! Really? Don’t you believe twas all you were actually scared of?” My soul questioned me.

“Come’ on, don’t forget I still hold the unbeatable record of missing god damn busses!”

“Yaah right! and YOU happen to know it very well too that you miss ‘em purposely for that extra iota of sleep!”

“Fun lies in not catching, but letting them wait.”

“Well then ‘deserved’ is that the word you choose for your ownself?”

“Ah! Don’t even go there! My diseased condition have been proved by many as ‘Much adoe about nothing’ thingy.”

“Sacrifice? Is that to decipher?”

“In any case, it’s never been easy!”

After some more such catharsis, I blanked out by barmy goose pimples. Screwy of being gazed up by those feelings, some told, some untold, some felt and some cracked… feelings that kept on stalking me over.

Art is not only about angst.

And so not my writings as well.

Visage

What Am I??

Mirror? Or Water?

I reflect people, replicate actions

Flow with ‘em, echo their words.

Imitate art, and am transparent.

Put a shape on me and I gush through.

Mirror? Water? Water? Mirror? I may know not,

But ’ve learnt to delude myself and cruise.

Then why it all elapsed?

Is the mirror ripped? Or the water diluted?

Should I had been more specific? Identity crisis, Is it?

Oh, so it had come to pass,

And it was to ensue.. The Identity crisis..

Like water.. Eventually poured down to be something else!

Like mirror.. With no facade of its own!

Lovely Blues

Blue in me

Adorable Blues!

Sometimes…

When you’re emotionally high and mentally low,

You do feel no gravity!

Song: Love me for a reason and let the reason be Love!

:|

Never Mind!

Sometimes…

its really hard to believe

that you actually make no difference to the universe you live in..

and for other universes  in the galaxy,

you care no damn about!

Before Sunrise!

 

one fine morning

one fine morning!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Say if you are sitting up awake at some rainy dawn on your porch;

Just don’t attempt to hear those sporadic toady hollers!

I sensed them in my dream today…… :o

And they were incessantly exasperating!! :|

Mood: Kicky! ;) :D

Here without you!

Here without u!

captured

Seven months ago I met an ol’ friend! He being a shy-guy at school, we never uttered. Thereafter he grew up as my senior at college, and we got acquaintance of each other’s being! Having same taste in food and beverages’, we happen to share a common liking too! Later on he got graduated and moved to Pune for his job. Twas here that we bumped again, when I got posted to the same. We met after almost 2 and a half years and it felt like family! I don’t know the precise moment when our amity took shape back at college. But I do remember that rollick-some roll which cling us together; shopping whole heartily till our piggy banks cracked; hip hopping to all possible bistros and eateries in search of the yummiest food in town; flipping time at Barista in rating day-to-day’s singers, yesterday’s food and the future of our college tribes. Getting along after so long, one thing still stayed put was our complete kiddo nature. We continued our randomness by melting with icey creams at kulfi parlors and taking long moonlight strolls discussing our lives, waving pasts with a smile(no regrets), rejoicing present(staying smug) and dreaming of a long awaited future(hopes on)!

But as all is flux; nothing stays still. While we flattered ourselves that things remain the same, they were changing under our very eyes from day to day, from hour to hour.

In the haze of such exuberance, I soon realized that twas time for him to Quit, Pack and Move!

Though knowing the fact that he eventually will; I was pretty cool with the whole scenario mentally and prepared myself for the day! In no time the moment banged; the entire day went without an err. I didn’t lose my buoyancy until he left. Rite within an hr it sinked in me as the train vacated the station with a vacuity in my heart! The complete feeling lasted in a gloom!

As I come to the end of my rope, all I do is… tie a knot and hang on. It’s been past 8 days, and I’m still counting what I lost! Sometimes I just gawk at his name on my communicator, in anticipation it might blink; but soon realizing it will never go green! At other times I feel that he will be back, a li’l far though.. but yeah he will be! But in next to no time I find that its still hard to delude oneself.. more than ever when you know that some part of your memories is lost for sure, and also the same is over too by this entitled movement!

All m left these days is a wish that we will be back with the same spirit and with the same silliness someday, And a hope that the time shouldn’t put down a matured impact on us. :s

His mail read:

.

“..How happy is the blameless vestal’s lot,
The world forgetting, by the world forgot,
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each prayer accepted, and each wish resigned.. “

Some memories are simply beautiful. Some are really special. And there are some moments that you really cherish for the rest of your life.
I am leaving with a mixed bag of emotions. On one hand, there is the joy of stepping into a new phase of life and on the other; I will be leaving behind a lot of amazing friends and happy times.

.

And he signed off! :|

sHush!!

Sometimes I do believe that…

Some of the Best things in our life

Remained Best

Because they were never meant to be spoken!  

And time after time

I too have noticed that…

The deepest feelings only turn up in silence!

And                                                                                  

Nothing I never said ever did me any harm either!

So for a chance…

Practice a Quiescent Stance!

As Beauty lies in silence

no words!

Quest forever!

Have you ever felt an air of chronic dissatisfaction?? Ever… Really?

I see… When I have no control over things happening around me and when it gets worse with each passing day… in my angst… I sense it.  Yes! I sense it… when with my profound thoughts, I live and die at the same time!

Now supposedly… when you are thinking a great deal about a dilemma and you know it was totally out of your way right from the start, that’s exactly when you start feeling why did it came to you at the very first time?? And how out of nothing you got into that damn situation?

Yeah! I know I almost sound like Vicky (Rebecca Hall) from Vicky Cristina Barcelona, but I intended to quote Cristina (Scarlett Johansson) here.

vickycristinabarcelona

There ain’t no clue of how it all happens with no reason to you at one point of time and with zillions of blurry justifications afterwards… you don’t feel like yourself since then!! Though how much you head on spontaneously and take the life as it comes, but for a long run… a plan is all you need for your every impromptu act.  

Or

This can possibly be some kind of change you never wanted in yourself at that spur-of-the-moment choice? I mean some things are truly unacceptable… yea some things… though how much you yearn for ‘em!

Getting factual enough by the movie again…

“Life is an ultimate work of art!”

And so pretty much like art, it too consists of drawing the lines somewhere! Ain’t so??

Well I completely agree with Cristina as she says…

“It’s always better to know what you don’t want, then not to know what you want!”
