Reality.... Bites

Hey people... Hope you all are doing great...

Life has been busy for me, that also means that I have become more lazy as I just pass any free time that I get just being myself i.e. a guy who loves to sleep, eat and sleep.

Being young is good. For a very simple reason that you are just so far away from reality, you still don't know what each day might bring and you have still not joined the brigade of the brightest minds on the face of this earth walking on a straight line which has been made for them by the ones who have walked on it before, which in turn was laid in front of them by the thousands who had walked on it before them. Yes, I am still not a part of that brigade... in fact I would always want to remain this way. Thats the dream really... but lets see where life takes me... I am still not that old.

Nothing much is happening. I am trying to face all the challenges a newbie faces in the corporate world. At times you spend so much time in front of the computer that the very name of internet or laptop turns you pale. At times you fight with yourself to get up and drag yourself to office. At times you fight with yourself to do what you should do rather than what you want to do.

But you still get up everyday and feel that you can make a difference. You still try and dress yourself in a way that you feel that you are out there with a purpose. You still hold firmly a smile on your face everyday.

The best part I have to say is the fact that you still feel excited when you complete your goals and you still get motivated to do things better and try harder.

I might be immature and far away from reality and...

Yes Reality... bites and bites really hard and can tear you apart but it is not being real that often holds you together and gives you reason to have a smile...

Feeliiiinnnngggg Goooooooood.....

I am feeling good today... I don't know why... Feel like taking a walk... listening to music... I don't really know why... Its just random happiness and well this post is just about random things. And this all is happening even though I have a hangover (I had a blast yesterday night :D ) or may be it is happening because I have a hangover.
Well life is crazy or may be its just me... who knows or cares...

Life is not a sitcom or a movie right? Definitely not right? Just think a bit more. It really is not.

Well I just love watching sitcoms/movies over and over. Specially the feel good ones. The thing that is common to all of them is that its the background score of each of the sitcoms/movies that depicts the mood of the characters. Something similar happens with our daily soaps, just that now they have added the weird camera work to it. Now, imagine if something similar starts happening in real life. Every time you are in any situation this music starts playing. No no, don't just read... close your eyes and imagine...

Your mom comes to scold you and as soon as she says the first few words there is that Saas bhi Kaabhi bahu shocking scene type music (and may be even the camera work).

May be everyone feeling a bit low or just had a fight with some one should try this out, I am sure it will bring a smile out of no where...

Well today is Ganesh Chaturthi and well going with the flow lets read the next line really loud...

Ganpati bappa morya, pudcha varshi lavkar ya

Ganesh is one of my favorite gods I mean well I love all the gods but he Loves laddus, has the coolest belly and has an awesome ride, he is smart and gives a great kick start to everything :)

This is something what one of my friends just passed on to me... http://www.ganeshaonline.com/ganeshpaintings.php

And talking of friends, well some of my college and school friends read this blog and give really great comments. After all... Where would one be without friends but well more on that later cause lets not get too senti because we are happy today. This is what I came across while reading something on the net...

Never exaggerate your faults. Your friends will attend to that.... well I agree :)

Coming back to sitcoms and music... think... every time that one irritating person you hate to see and the one who you always get stuck with comes up to you and in the background there is the song "Raat Akeli hai... " oh oh we goofed up with the song right? Well as I said don't just read... imagine...

Now, imagining normal sounds like the ones in our TV soaps is ok but just imagine if you were to goof up with the songs and that also at the wrong place and the wrong time like a confrontation with your boss...

And well if at the starting of this post you thought I was going somewhere with this, well then, you didn't read carefully.... I have a hangover... :)

Happy In- Dependence........

As you might have guessed I am a bit of the Patriotic types (from the name of the blog) and since its Independence day I thought I will Jazz it up a bit. Now I respect my flag a lot. Just that don't have any other way of celebrating Independence day.

We live in a free world. We have the freedom to express our opinions in every which way we want to, we have the freedom to laugh, make jokes, dance and sing, to make new friends and biggest of all we have the freedom to think and yet I can hardly think of a day I was free...

This is what I thought when I wrote the last line.... You were always free. You did the things you like to do. You were free to initiate those things that you did and you were free to take them forward. So, from where did the first thought that "I had never been free" come from....

Well the first thought came because when I started thinking about the major events of my life. From my birth to me writing this blog, for everything I have been dependent on something. I was born, well, obviously due to my parents so totally dependent on them and I have been dependent on them from there on and I will pretty much continue to be dependent on them. Was dependent on my friends during my school and college days for making my day or ruining it, on my teachers (well, not so much in college except for internals) for the Knowledge and at times the T.P. (Time Pass) they provided me with. My sis for helping me out whenever I thought I was about to fall. This Laptop, the internet, this blog of mine and all the friends here. I have been just dependent.

Our Great freedom fighters fought for our Independence for 90 years but Independence was achieved only when we started working as an interdependent cohesive unit. No one could have single-handedly attained Freedom. But guess what.....

I love each and everything or everyone I am dependent on. I can appreciate my life as it is right now because of them. The freedom fighters loved fighting for the Independence of their country and fought really hard. We wanted to have our own governance. We made a choice between the British Rule or having our own Government. We used the freedom we were all born with. I used this liberty through each and every stage I have mentioned here. The most important freedom of them all....

The Freedom To Choose....

Happy Independence day all... Enjoy your Freedom...
