life, after all, is a love story or nothing!
think of the times when you have been happy, blissful, euphoric if you like? for me, they have been the times i have been in love....with someone i love or doing something i love....
everything else is trash!

the essence of life!....by amarocks
the essence of life as i understand it now, is this....
we are dying, any minute. we don't know which minute. we may have only a few hours left to live. living life means doing everything that we want to do, we crave to do, we yearn to do, every minute we are alive.
the essence of life is that we have this one life to live and certain amount of time has been given to us. it will pass, anyways. we can use it, by enjoying every minute or waste it. it takes guts, risk, dogged minded determination and obstinacy to live your life, the way you want.
the key words in the essence of life are "love", "want", "enjoy", "passion", "pleasure". these should be the answers to why we do what we do and where we choose to spend our time. we need to ask ourselves every minute,
if this is my last day, am i doing what i love to do? am i doing what i want to do? am i doing what gives me pleasure? am i enjoying myself? am i doing what i am passionate about?
if the answer to all these questions is yes, then you are living life in its essence.
otherwise, you are just surviving, like animals. and very soon, it will be too late.

a core skill
if there is one thing i have learned in respect to interaction with people, is how to make people feel special about themselves. i love doing it. and it's facile for me.....i love making people feel proud of what they are! feel optimistic about life....i love it

work!
"if you do not feel like jumping out of bed every morning and rushing to resume work, just dump what you are doing and go find another career!!!"
carpe' diem'
seize the day!
Just a moment in this lifetime,
Just a tragedy ahead.
Not knowing where each turn will lead,
Within seconds we might be dead.
Live each day to the fullest,
Do not stop to wonder why.
Do everything your heart desires,
In dreams, reach for the sky.
Surprises at every stop sign,
With its share of wrong ways and dead-ends.
Statistics don't help you with the future,
They only tell you where you've been.
With so many people among us,
There are no certainties.
And all it takes is just one person,
To reroute history.
Dont waste one single moment,
How very precious that they are.
What seems a long way off,
Is really not that far.

i love talking about...
i say quite often that i love talking. Generally, when i talk to someone, there is something very specific i love talking about. i love talking about what people love doing. i love asking them this question and further questions about what they love.
for instance, i went to the ecp beach this evening and got talking to a guy who was fishing. The guy was Chinese so neither of us could understand each other properly, his English being bad. even then, I asked him questions about fishing and he explained till i could bear his English....
i love the look and the expression of people and the way their entire being brightens up when they start talking about what they love doing, about what they really are, about what they have always wanted to be, in the essence...
i love it so much that i wish i could make a living out of....i hate wishing!

R.A.O.A Button
Some times in my life before, I have had to press the R.A.O.A key when nothing seemed to work and I realized I was on the wrong path. times like leaving non-medical, chartered accountancy, CAT preparation during final year...and many such instances...
you see, at this stage of my life, i am doing nothing consistent with my purpose, wasting days one after the another, not doing things I love, as they wait for my time. Because I cannot afford to take a dangerous risk at this stage. I guess I will lose my patience very soon and will press the RAOA key.
and when I press it this time, life will not be the same again....
RAOA: Restart, ALL OVER AGAIN
when it turns on, i will live follow the essence of life
