  • Ignorance and Bliss

    i saw an old woman on the steet
    and walked on… putting off a helping hand
    for another day when we might meet



    if by a strange twist of fate
    i happened to know that she would be me and i would be her
    on another world and another date




    would i still ignore her and walk away
    blissfully comfortable in my world, and ignorant of hers,
    as i was on that day…


    until next time, this is only a temporary aberration 🙂

  • Life etc……

    Not very sure, what i should write about, but first things first, i have to thank Mr.Saltwater Blues, coz he sparked a nostalgic wave in me, about goa, so was looking at some old stuff, and suddenly rediscovered a lot of things that i thought were lost.so thanks buddy!!I think , i will debate a lil more on my post a couple of days back, coz i got some good response from sapna. ..what i still would like to ask is that, was human nature always so “yeh dil maange more”? i think it has been an acquisition of the last 3-4 generations.. and havent the machines intended to make life easier for us, made life too easy, to the point that we become self reliant isolated beings,with no social interaction till we drain ourselves out? Reminds me of an old saying about life “forget the potholes, enjoy the journey”, arent we more of trying to acquire stuff that will fix the potholes now, rather than enjoying the journey?thats enough food for thought, have a great weekend people, and have a great vacation, michelle, you, you lucky thing!! 😉 before i go, this one’s for babita, something that mark twain said about India “the sole country under the sun, that is endowed with imperishable interest, the one land all men desire to see, and having seen once, by even a glimpse, would not give that glimpse for the shows of all the rest of the globe combined” Cheers India!!and for anyone anywhere with that unexplainable ache in the heart
    manuscrypt of the day
    i hear the countless voices of the human heart
    Flying unseen,From the dim past to the dim unblossomed future.
    Hear, within my own breast,the fluttering of the homeless bird, which,
    In company with countless others,
    Flies day and night,Through light and darkness,
    From shore to shore unknown.
    The void of the universe is resounding with the music of wings:
    ‘Not here, not here, somewhere far beyond.’
    Rabindranath Tagore, A Flight of Swans
    STOP PRESS

  • Coz the tooth is up there

    Today’s title is inspired the girl who married the dog in West Bengal, it seems many guys and girls do it there that way, c’mon guys , its not hedonism or anything, read the story here and find where the title comes from.And finally we get the Real news. El Beckham has finally reached Spain, congrats to him. And it seems he went for less than the 43 million that was earlier the agreed on figure. i still havent been able to objectively look at my loyalty issues concerning him and United, hehe, so what if it doesnt affect them, i can still have a stand, cant i??! ah, that brings me to the Rhyme of the Day

    Though i had my fun at Old Trafford
    My lifestyle, now they can ill afford,
    Was a lil concerned about the Real/Barcelona row,
    But it all boiled down to who could pay more Euro!!
    Wonder if Posh can adjust to life in Spain
    Even otherwise she is such a big pain
    And if you are wondering why i am writing all this,
    Bloke, it makes headlines even if i p**s!!
    Read some interesting parallels about Hitler and the VHP, RSS etc on Andy’s blog, check it out, its a good read.More on the mullahs in Iran here.Poor guys are confused about what to do on the new fundamentals of Arab society, “Democracy, whiskey, and sexy!” 🙂
    Bangalore had showers on Residency Road, thats where the Radio City office is, they always ask me to take my raincoat when i am about to get out for office, fell for it twice, but am now educated!! Cant blame them though, the clouds here remind me of that ‘about to puke’ feeling i get, and then i dont puke….Thats it for the day, will end with
    manuscrypts trivia
    Got this from i dont know where, but it seems there are only three words that end in ‘ngry’, angry, hungry and_____, i havent got it yet!! it seems that we see/feel it everyday!!!!

  • And then…

    is there any meaning to this existence
    is anything that i do of any consequence
    i am born, i am living and one day, i will die
    i think of this, sometimes i laugh, sometimes i cry

  • And in the Beginning
