What happens when..

..you don't know what you want out of life? Everyone seems to know what keeps them ticking.
It has to be something immaterial right? Something that you control?

***Disclaimer...if you decide to go ahead of this point, please do not..DO NOT come back to me with more questions..or any answers!****

What if you can't see anything that keeps you going? I mean is it that your inhuman then?
Is it that you would do anything that came your way? You have your preferences right? So that means you know what you don't want to do? When will you find out what you want to do?

Will you die being a worthless piece of the jigsaw called life? Will you contribute without ever knowing? Is it really important that people recognize and appreciate your work?

If self-confidence is what can get you out of tricky situations, what is that will keep your self-confidence intact? Will you ever be happy and satisfied? Will you ever find your true worth?

Why do I need to find the answers to these questions for myself? Why is it that we cannot read our own mind, but are able to understand someone else better? Why is it that we lie so much to ourselves?

I don't think there are generic answers.. Ofcourse I believe some answers are better than others, but there is no rigorous justification for it otherwise.. And I'd add that there are no final answers either.. your thoughts will evolve.. I think the key is to enjoy the journey, and making your choices consciously.. It will guard (in some measure) against the unforeseen consequences.. Because alas, you can't have everything.. Don't fret too much, life is short.. Enjoy!! :)

This time pree’s tweets are going to show me the way J 22 nd December : 9:29 AM Aah.. Njoying.. Nw wating frnds to come to ma home!! We were on the way to banaglore, boarded a 9pm bus from pune. The bookings were done in advance but last minute hiccups are always there. The travel decided to change their pick up point without informing the boarders. Luckily dad was home early and ash and my baggage got a ride through the traffic jam at yerwada. We were panicking about the bus leaving but then were waiting for almost half an hour after the scheduld hour, for the bus to start. Anyhow we thus started our 14 hour journey to the city of gardens! Pree had prepared methichi bhaji (my request) and masale bhaat (my request again) for us. The bus reached majestic at around 12:30 or so, and we were to look for platform 17 on the local bus stand. Yeah, there platforms are not only for trains but also for buses. The bus service is pretty organized there. We were hunting our platform 17. We sp...

Weekend stories...

The weekend started with a bang...am going to get into details...coz..as Mohsin rightly mentioned...all the details he missed in his post will come here...:) The plan was in place...were to go to the Scream...clubbing... We were supposed to meet at Charuta's place by around 8:30pm...but as usual...we are always late...we left office at 8:45pm in the daemon's car. Now I know why people fear his driving...seriously...all he does is try and test his brakes...I mean if you can see a vehicle in front of you slowing down...you would also slow down right...but the daemon...will go as close as 100m zoom...and then apply brakes... Ok, whatever...we reached safely at our first destination....and no wonder i changed my vehicle...its much safer with Khyati driving..:) We went to the East Street Cafe..(well known as the bus wala resto..;). The place is nice...has a lovely ambience... We were looking for a place for the seven of us...and the answer we got is..but that place is a little priva...

Contrary to all reason...!

This is something...that is inconceivable...absolutely...unbelievable...I mean can you even think of an accident...affecting as many as 5 vehicles...and that too at a traffic signal..when the signal is red...???   I couldn't...I never thought about something like this...ever before...however, thanks to this flimsy experience...I have concluded that your never safe...even when you have halted at a red light..:)   Here's what happened...   At my fav spot (...yeah fav accidental spot..:D...)...nal stop...the signal where you turn towards Karnatak School... The signal is bright red...broad daylight...and not that it just turned red...its red say about 40secs remaining...to turn green A truck...in full speed....approaches the vehicles that were obeying the red light...and wow...what do we have....a sight worth watching... 5 vehicles in a row...damaged...(I cant understand...how fast the truck was that the collision spread to 5 vehicles in a column..!! whoa..!! ) Now...in Pune we alw...
