Zebra Crossing

Hey! Remove this multi-colored carnival bed cover and spread a milder one! The colors prick my eyes...Switch off the damn lights! I want to be in the dark.. I want to be alone...
Sounds familiar? Oh yes. These are the words uttered by all of us at some point of our lives or the other. Maybe u said it a while ago?

This is the quest for peace. Serenity. Makes me wonder though.. Are we actually colorful? Or as they say white is the color of calm and peace.Believe it or not, human mind runs behind white in certain situations.

Irony. Darkness is not bright,and white. Yet peaceful. So calm and quiet. Now the million dollar question!

White or Black? Where will I find you?...
Keep pondering... Till my next post!

Gratitude

There was a flower,
Fragrance it spread,
I looked at it,
Knowing not what i wanted...
The flower danced,
The garden smiled,
The wind giggled,
For each other they were made...
I stopped for a while,
Wished to be a part,
Of the loveliest of joy,
And my wish was granted...
I praise the wind,
I thank the garden,
I adore the flower,
For accepting a stranger,
In the realm of happiness,
They always shared....

Happy doormatting!

I remember long back during my school days my friend used to talk about being a doormat. As my habit is, I used to laugh and forget the matter thinking of it as a joke. Or the fact could be that I wasn’t interested in thinking about it. Now , giving it a thought, I can say that ‘being a doormat’ phase of anyone’s life is the most painful one!
Here goes the story of a doormat…. It is beautiful, colorful and is used by numerous people who don’t even notice what they are using! The doormat lies there on the doorsteps, cleaning others dirt and getting dirty instead. And the reward! Yes, the final reward that it gets is that it gets torn into bits by overuse and is replaced….
What a fate! So any doormats out there???? Beware…. Don’t get exploited is the trend of today!

Manpower....

I wonder at the meaning of manpower. Is it the mere population count or the effective population? well....by effective population i mean that fraction which is skilled and contributes to the growth....of infrastructure or resources.
India having such a huge population and with a high fertility rate should have been the most prosperous country... but we know the truth.
It is heard that china is suffering from major labor crisis. i guess because of low fertitily rate one day there will be a HR crunch there.
so where is our country? behind or ahead?

Blaze....

16.5 degrees , the temperature set in that air conditioned hall. Outside, the sun was at its maximum shine and the clocks ticked 2 p m. Oh well, coming to the point, the drastic difference between the natural and the man made is what I am pondering on… Had anyone known that a day would come when the creativity of mankind would take over the natural rules and phenomenon….. Thanks to the inventor!
The scorching sunlight and the rushing hot air at 40+ degrees, (cant call it wind…its too pleasant a word I guess…) burns down the epidermis of the skin as if it were giving that withheld message of nature. “ look what u have done! It is beyond the range set for man!”.
And you say… “Oh hell…what nonsense! I possess all rights to make my life comfortable” . Well said! Bravo!
The rift between nature and mankind!

Intersection of wishes

Well it might appear a bit mathematical. But the analysis is worth giving a thought.
People live because they are driven by the spirit of fulfilling what they want to achieve.
These spirits are in other words the wishes.

There are many aspects and there are as many things we wish for. Say you want to drink some soft drink. But you don't want to leave any possibility for catching common cold. In this case isn't it clear that the intersection of both the wishes is null?

Till one has a strong will to confront challenges and handle those efficiently the intersection set is almost null. The generalisation of this condition is the popular saying in hindi, translated as " To achieve something one has to sacrifice some other thing!"
But is it always true? Well don't get confused. The idea is to make people think. How to be happy and content with one's life is important and so one has to know the apposite ways to make it that way.

So people , if you know mathematics well and good. I have conveyed my thought. And if u don't, then..... just be happy!

Whats in a race?

On your marks.....Get..Set...GO!!! And there goes a crowd running, like starved people for a sumptous meal.....
Though u might wonder how a starved person can sprint, but necessity is the mother of 'intentions'.
I always wonder what is the whole point in making people so obsessed with that one sprint. It is not a question for life or death ! People and most importantly youngsters develop this passion.
The situation is comparable to this. You are a slave,bound with a contract to your master who happens to practice black magic.The brain is robbed of its original capacity to process situations and arrive at conclusions. Now one fine morning you are given orders to just run. You run, run, and run. You keep running for some so called bounty which, u have no idea doesnt exist at all!
Or another analogy would be the ancient mariners looking for the end of the surface of earth. No results but the mind is preoccupied to such an extent with the thought of victory that they dont care what they are doing!
Now thats one of us.... If one has ever participated in a dash or sprint (many other delicious synonyms exist to take people in), the fact must be crystal clear.
Some people may say it tests your speed, efficiency and all such nonsensical things.
But is that worth it?
So next time you find yourself wearing some funny outfit, with hundreds of people making noises and cheering up, (to be more apt, fun) with that illuding red carpet like track in front, God save you!!! :)
