thoughts post the end of the 'K' Chapter

dil kuch udas sa hai
kuch dino se
shayad koi apna peeche chhut gaya hai

kuch kuch mana liya hai humne dil ko
... kehke, ke apna hoga to laut ayega.

jo laut te nahi hain
vo apne nahi hote....

to asani se tut jate hain...
dhoke hote hain
sapne nahhi hote

so basically when you don't understand why seemingly educated people go against their own happiness, mostly the reason is this- they don't have the balls to fight for their happiness, so they just capitulate.

 

---------------------------------------------

 

Incinerate the dead yesterdays
Plan for the unborn tomorrows in the womb of life
Today is born
It's here with you
Soon, it will be gone-forever
give it the best you got
make today your best day ever!

The kind of life I want to live!

"Lead a life so simple and powerful that there is nothing for anybody to take away from you. You can take away a position, a chair, a car, a perk.

Never honor."

wow! wow! wow!

I am born to be a free bird!

To sing, To fly

To go as much as I care

To go as much as high

To do what I love

And do it at my pace

I just don't want to compete with them

It has been and it's just my own race

I don't want to answer anyone

My accountability is to the mirror

If I can look to it straight in the eye

There is nothing out there that can make me shy

My convictions are worth a fight

If it does not make us happy

How does anything become right?!

So often I don't seem to fit in

Never ever have followed the herd

Something inside me keeps reminding me

that I am born

I am born to be a free bird

I am waiting for the day I will break free

Either I will live or I will die

But I see only this one life

And I don't want to be caged

I am born to be a free bird and I want to fly

Decision Guidance


Happiness is everything. If you are not happy today, you have got to be doing something else today! Tomorrow may not show up.  Age is immaterial. Most people spend their lives as walking carcasses anyways. 


If the pursuit of happiness takes every minute of it of your life, let it. It's all there is to life. I am willing to trade my life off for my happiness and my dreams.  done. It is a non-negotiable. No compromises. If I die, I die. I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees

Raping the society!

I have a tendency to walk while I talk on mobile. One night, in my area, I was talking was taking a stroll and it suddenly got dark. The electricity connection conked out. I was enjoying the conversation with a friend and suddenly my phone was snatched out of my hands and I thought someone was playing a prank. By the time I got over the shock and realized that 2 guys on a bike had robbed the phone from me and ran after the bike, they disappeared into the dark.

I lost my phone. What happened later was many people in my neighborhood blamed me for having lost the phone!! They said why was I walking on the street? Why was I not conscious of it? Why did I not run after them since I am a runner?!!

Basically, they blamed me and I was the victim.

Women get raped and then, they are blamed for what happens to them. It's like saying that man is a beast who would jump at a woman the moment he sees skin!!! It's a shame on our collective conscience if there is one.

Have you thought what promotes recidivism? Why does it happen over a over? Why do a group of men have the gall to gang rape a woman and leave her for dead and malign all men all over?

It's because they think they will escape punishments or the punishments are just not harsh enough. Bury them alive, castrate them, whip out every shred of lives in their body. Stop those bastards.

Why do you smoke?

I know I may be asking for trouble but one's gotta say what one's gotta say!

"What we think, or what we know, or what we believe is, in the end, of little consequence. The only consequence is what we do." Smoking is one example that comes to my mind to exemplify the quote.

While I was growing up as a kid, I would look at people who smoke and wonder what are they doing? I did not have answers then. I don't have any answers now either. Then I used to commute by a Haryana Roadways bus to my college to Delhi everyday and the driver would smoke his bidis right under the sign 'No Smoking.' I had many arguments with people who would sit next to me and take out a smoke the moment the bus would start. I did not think much of those people.

Another rationale I had for a long time was that the people who smoke are not good. They are bad. Vo Acche log nahi hote. Then I met many people who in their character and person are some of the best I have met and they would just flash a cigarette and romance with the smoke many times a day. That's where it got complicated.

Why do educated, smart, intelligent people smoke?

Potential Perceptive answers since perception is reality

1. It helps relieve stress. Stress is in the air.

2. Let's just have a smoke. I mean, what the hell!

3. It goes great with coffee/tea/Beer/Rum/whatever

4. It's a good filler to fill space and time when we have not got anything worthwhile to do

5. Smoking is sexy, romantic, enchanting, divine, sublime etc

Okay, fine. Well, it's none of my business that you smoke. It's yours. I generally manage to avoid passive smoking as well since I object. May be smoking is good and my mind has not reached the level where I can really decipher what kind of surreal pleasure or joy one can derive from it.

For you to consider if it helps you. If it makes your life better and serves as an example for your kids or people you would like to emulate you.

Think about it over a smoke.
