overrated and underrated

Either the well was very deep ,or i am falling very slowly ,

i have plenty of time as i go down ,to wonder what was going to happen next

In the race to succeed or maybe to simply survive ,i left living in the present

i traded my logic for popular beliefs , but as they say truth or enlightenment (if i may be so bold )

can hit you any time and anywhere ,just watching a movie where protagonist is stranded on

an island ,it got me thinking what will i need if ever i was stranded .

Truth is we are already on an island with everything we need but still this false hope of

being saved is what is the cause of all the frustrations and depressions ,

We are kings on our own personal islands with our families friends around us

but we are trading it all away for the job of a cleaner on the mighty ship which

promises to save you from the island but  i am very sure its name is Titanic .

It is said most fights and arguments can be won even before they have begun

if only you recognize the when to quit point ,its not about throwing the towel

but more like "who runs away from a fight ,lives to fight another fight " 

oxfords definition of madness is "doing same thing repeatedly and expecting a different

result " so either its time to change the strategy or reset the goal or maybe give it one more

shot ,never forget life happened while you were busy working .

holy hai bhai holy hai

Yeah went to Vaishno devi, i am amazed that how did a person like me (read lazy and atheist)

managed to do so. It truely is a work of faith which i am not able to develop though i want to

but still not getting a sign.

So man there is a huge climb and even if you are gasping for air it will look improper if you dont

reply JAI MATA DI to every next guy passing you. Food on the way was not only good it was

even very reasonably priced. Half way up i realised that it is not possible for some of us to reach

the top some should consider maa ne mann se nahin bulaya option and should halt, but here my

friend, so many unknown will rise up to give support to you , that you may want to think if this

really is India, all sort of ppl mostly Punjabi chade jaa rahe hain raat ko din ko bus jai maata di

aur chalo. Honeymoon couples were koochikooing and haath may haatd dale chade jaa rahe they,

happening and happened

There were a couple of marriages in my family

and it got me thinking just how long are these happy couples going to survive the paradise ,

ignorance is a bliss ; i couldnt agree more i have fought with people who were so great bonds that

they could have scraped the earth with me,but i managed because i didnt knew what i was

getting into ,.

Something funny just crept into my mind actually this can be a serious religious funda for all i

know. Once while discussing religion with a muslim acquintance our conversation steered

towards Adam and eve , and the reason he gave me for their expulsion from paradise was potty.

I mean it, i myself was like What ! come again

That person told me that Quran says that God instructed Mr Adam and Eve not to go near the

garden because it contained fruits and as Eve ate the apple her body started working in normal

way that is digesting the food and thus POTTY ,which smelled like Shit in paradise ,hence

expulsion.
Hearing such accounts of religious fundamentals takes me further from God and closer to people

like Erin Von Daikin who in his 1968 book "Chariots of the Gods" tries to explain that there is no

such thing as God and we all are children of the corn (read aliens, actually it was such a good

movie i wrote down that name for the effect)

And on that note and feeling like the geek who stood on the building with the banner friends

forever in the movie Independence Day, me too is waiting for 21 dec 2012 as it is the day our

creators are going to come back and if don't feel happy with the experiment, going to scrape and

start again.

Life in general

This has been a very soul searching and nerve wrecking year , financially a very sound year also a

year where i grew up somemore , though we dont know but we keep growing in length or width (as

in most cases) all our lives but we refuse to acknowledge it, Nahin yaar main nahin badla waisa he

hoon purana wala guddu jo masti karta tha , Haan bas thoda mota ho gya hoon. Can you believe it

waist has completly gone to waste , Guddu wont think twice to make a quick buck even if it was

wrong but we keep saying to others ,mainly to ourselves that we have not changed .

So it is really a great thing(daad chaunga) when i say i have changed and have come to terms

with it ; Purani jeans aur guitar are not coming back .


notes for next meeting: write abt your religious beliefs, society , family , and movies
