Life n its Lessons

Been a while since i wrote … i guess i got caught up in the day to day again ..

The world around me gets stranger by the day … And the people i know get even more strange ..

Oscillations based on needs is a rather amusing sight … Not that it matters and i’d still do things the way i always have ..

Just another chip of respect lost along the way ..

Someone once told me if you have the heart be true to the world around you … if not at least yourself and the rest will unfold like a pack of cards …

Sometimes i weigh happiness with the scares left behind forging a character .. does it really matter this much to me or is i merely an illusion

Half my life has gone by living by these principles .. only if i could look 30 years into the future and know what the end result was

Standing at a cross road flipping a coin never did appeal to me .. but i still am

Man is still very much his own mould … its only a matter of choice ..

Just the way i like to start things… Better odds i guess when you use a blank slate.

But all these years of working with some intellectual and not so intellectual people makes me contemplate my instinct which has built over the years..

I bump into people ever now and then that have made their millions … and maybe some who are on their way to making their millions

Makes me wonder if stupidity does find its way more often with time … in a so called genius

If a penny saved is a penny earned.. then why is there so much emphasis only on earn …

Maybe its just the high of the cash ringing in that sometimes one tends to forget a business needs to be built to last..

Ability to be lean and mean depends alot on strategy …And Strategy requires a vision..but vision at times can carry you away if you ignore reality in all its gravity..

I don’t know here … maybe i will give it a few more months and be an optimist

I wished upon an star ..like we all do

Little did i know the truth would unfold quick .. He is a master of his art i was once told ..

For now i truely belive … Events in the past may be roughly divided into those which probably never happened and those which do not matter anymore.. Circumstances around me do not make me who i am..  Only brings out the unknown..

Galileo once quoted

“All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them”  

Unconventional was always the key …

Nothing hurts me more then cutting loose someone i trust..

Its really unfortunate under what conditions people conceive notions and base their actions upon.. maybe its just  my stupidity that i till date believe that there are a handful few out there who one can trust.. After all there is alot more that defines an individuals life .. beyond the individual himself…

Life is a product of surroundings and experiences that give shape to your perspective .. which in return defines your reality

Cherish what you hold .. for everyone is not that fortunate

Skipped work today.. had plenty of time to just ponder around with my thoughts ..

The day usually starts and ends with news.google.com

News really does give you a great insight into the chaos in the world around… if you don’t buy into the propaganda and the media hype…

I always wondered how does it all fit in day after day … despite the chaos .. isn’t  it one of those wonders ?

This evening i was in one of those elevated moods where my senses seem to elevate to a whole new level and my mind set free.. That called for some music and warm chai to beat the winter chill…

Hmm Calls for another cup right now …

So anyways sipping on the chai i was looking outside the window .. i could see a old man reading his book a couple of kids playing in the park …

Then i turned my head to the street .. Traffic seemed all backed up .. i noticed two guys were half way into a parking spot with their cars and were arguing who should park there..

I nodded my head and said “Only in New York” .. i was listening to Hangin By a Moment - Life House and nodding my head away when i noticed a spot ahead opened up but the two guys were too involved in their argument they did not notice the free spot .. Finally it took my neighbor to stick his head out the window and scream at them to go take the open spot … that finally broke the quarrel off .. i found it rather amusing

Most people would call this form of my amusement as sadistic pleasure .. but its not .. The chaos in the everyday world is very much like the quarrel this evening .. Simply elevate yourself to a higher level of consciousness and you will see the amusing picture too …

Everything that you see in the news every day does not fit in … that’s why its in the news in the first place .. But eventually it all does … and is not in the news anymore …

it all really does fit …

What a man sees and decides to accept .. defines the scope of his vision..

Its strange why that thought passed me by tonight .. i have just been in this mode to question the status quo …all this week

Sometimes i wish i could replicate myself with teaching a few people i know .. Unfortunately an experience can only be shared on a table with words .. What one takes off the table makes all the difference to the end result …

For the most part i prefer to reserve my thoughts.. i know many people have questioned this approach … and they have every right to…

But sometimes its difficult to explain a thought with words or examples … when its abstract .. Only if i could make sense of it and have some definitive shape to express …

Half baked beans never did taste right ..

Its a known fact.. that choices we make in our lives leads us down certain paths for the better or worse …

I have made many choices myself.. Maybe things would be different today if i did not make those choices… But no one can undo the past … and i would not like to either … i have learnt to live with them in most cases and leave them behind in some cases …. The accountability is and will always be solely mine…

People make choices … and sometimes when you care enough .. you feel accountable for the choices they make… This can often get a little too overwhelming to handle… and over time i have come to realize ..

Individuals need to own up to their choices and no matter how much you care .. In reality you can never really own up to the choices they make..

So as a wise man said once “Condemn none: if you can stretch out a helping hand, do so. If you cannot, fold your hands, bless your loved ones, and let them go their own way.”

We are whatever we are today because of the choices we made in our past .. And we will be whatever tomorrow based on the choices we make today…

I woke up with morning… Checked my emails as usual …Was a little surprised to find an email from someone with a picture of myself and my dad back in the days…

Its been a while since I saw that picture… but it did bring back some memories

Some good.. and Some bad …

If our life’s were a book…. would you look at each day as a page … a month as a chapter ???  I know I do.. and each day is a master piece on its own … irrespective of how abstract it may seem to others …

I can’t change history nor can I change actions and events of the past … its simply beyond my control… there are higher forces of nature in play here… The unforeseen future may hold in store many such instances too …Shall deal with them when its time to cross those bridges…

One known maxim that drives my life … emotion is like the wind … it will always come knocking on your doors and windows …  whether  we choose to open is a whole different story all together …Sometimes its not worth opening closed chapters in your life … as the end result cannot be changed no matter how you look at it ..

Open chapters are a whole different story …

Honest criticism is hard to take…

Most people i have had the pleasure of knowing never question themselves or their actions .. if someone were to question it .. its often perceived as a judgment being passed … when honest criticism all it ever was…

In my lifetime having come across many such people…

Unfortunately some of them have been my nearest and dearest… If anyone knows me as a person also knows i can be a very big critic towards a handful few… What too many people don’t see is there is no fire without fuel… and the guy screaming fire is probably the one who cares the most .. about the situation

When someone stops criticizing you .. its a cause for concern. Giving up on you is the last thing you would want people to do…

Why i do it ?

its simple really .. Self Awareness is a switch .. which some people over their years of growing up simply forget to switch on…

Do i Hurt People ?

According to 9 out of 10 people i know …. say i do …
Do i really ? Or is its just their perception coupled in with a weak heart ?

I have never tried to seek answers to the second question… cause if given an option.. and i cared enough
i much rather be the asshole giving a reality check rather then a sugar coated pill…

Have i used comments made by my critics about my methods/ways  ? .. sure i did.. i questioned my methods/ways and rectified it if i was convinced logically its a flaw…

if one can learn to accept another perception and filter it to meet half way with ones own perception .. i cannot even begin to imagine the possibilities of ones self development ..

Start from where the world.. as it is …not as you would like it to be..

Life has taught me many lessons some hard some easy….

The only from of respect that ever matters is self respect

Never enough expressed with gratitude and never too late for apologies …

It doesn’t matter how the world sees it .. what matters is how you see it

Perception can make a world of a difference … Question it
