Stop complaining and think ! !

This time, I am writing nothing new. Nothing not-known-to-anyone things. But today I am writing about something which is very well known! Yup. I am talking about the most talked about things in our country today. The C-word.

It was around 2 months back that we all felt that we saw a savior in Anna Hazare with his determined desire to bring the Lokpal Bill into it's existence.

But before we try to bring all the top-honchos to book, it is important that we do come across the various moments of unusualness which exist in our daily lives.

We all usually tend to have a strange affection towards getting things done easily. Jumping up front in a queue, getting a favor from someone to get something done, its considered all so normal. Actually, that's the sole emotional reason, or rather the root of favors. The concept of having contacts must not be the means to get cranky about getting things done in a jiffy. So as long as that sense of accepted-easiness remains etched in the mind of the so-called middle class, there isn't going to be an end for the C-word.

I agree, it is a great irony that we have to be so provocative to make the politicians do things, which they are supposed to do anyways. But, on the contrary, isn't it always required that we take a look upon our own conscience as well ? Don't we need to control ourselves ?

Thinking and acting will yield results.

one heck of a trip..

its not everyday that u go for a trip. but the one which we went ws very exciting.. its not evryday tht u go to a 150 km trip unplanned and all of a sudden. so in that way it was special. we experienced everything in between. 8 of us. the trip wasnt wht it became at the beginning. at the start, the idea was just to hire a vehicle and roam around the city. but when we had hired the vehicle for a day, the thoughts began swirling. bright ideas came up of what to do with the vehicle in one day.. and amongst many options put forward, the Cherai Beach near Ernakulam was the one we fixed. Started in the night of that saturday. Lots of roaming abt the places and confusions in between regarding the routes. and besides that there was this shortage of fuel. a couple of times, we just reached the petrol pump, jus when the fuel was getting over. the whole night we were driving. at abt 2:30 am we went to our friends' house on the way. now tat was a surprise 2 his mom.. then at abt early morning ...

Darkness

As I sit within these walls Those thoughts, the mind recalls Craving for that cosy hand With that familiar blue band The shadows in the moonlight Search for the bright sunlight That once existed, for long Without any inhibitions, forlorn The breeze sings in midnight Though the clock waits for the light With the miles crossing by But the moon floats, as its own alibi The walks sing their ballads Out when they call, the nomads Those who belong to this world Yet, while they lie all curved Along the streets, they speak Of stories which call them a freak Smile along they do with might When others smirk at their sight Forget those who are bemoan Running behinds dreams flown Chasing peaks which are unreachable Carrying loads pretty unbearable A day shall come, long-drawn When the time will dawn Upon them with a light so bright Fight, they shall, with all their might.

The Trip

It was started off as just another Whatsapp group, but fortunately it ended up as something which materialized into a get-together. With couple of months of planning lead by our very own planning commision head, Mr. S, a trip to Ooty, worked out for the long weekend clubbed with Labor Day. The agenda was clear: A visit to our alma mater, a drive through the valleys of Ooty, and an overnight stay, and then the return day after - and yes, celebrating Mr. A’s homecoming as well. The plan looked simple, but the eagerness towards it wasn’t such. It had been a long time ever since the whole of Troublers (yes! that’s the name of our group), had sat down together, and talked like there wasn’t an end to the world. And The Trip was surely going to be a mark up for that. For me, it happened to be a rush through with missing out on the first day to The Trip. So after the hiccups with the month end closure and between the hurried heartbeats decrypting the excitement into smiles, I boarded t...
