Realigning Life.

Kumbhal Garh Fort
It took me fifteen minutes  to write this very line. Being back to my pet blog is overwhelming but at the same time it seems a bit hard to begin, somewhat like that of static friction before an actual movement or the inertia. I mean so many things have happened since the last time  but they all seems so much fused like the cluttered basement of an old building ( an analogy taken from "The Conjuring" which I watched last night which has nothing to do with this post). Things need to be sorted in this basement and maybe in  life too. I will close this post with some simple yet powerful keynotes which are unfortunately not my originals but a mix of many Quora articles and some random experiences.
  •  Success in anything has a simple blueprint :- The day discipline becomes an instinct to you just like survival is  an instinct to a drowning man you'll succeed.
  • Most underrated ability :- The ability to detach from ones emotion and driven by discipline and aim.
  • Travel solo and get lost :- You will feel a vulnerability so intense that all your life's troubles will suddenly appear laughable. Pick you bags and just go, don't overthink think.
  • Writing Tip :- Anand bhaiya once said, "the best writings are those which are true, without manipulation/editing or shame. ( we will talk about "who is  Anand bhaiya some other day'')
  • About love and relationships :- You cannot force yourself into it. Only because all your friends are getting in one or your parents are asking you to marry or  even if  all your friends are going gaga about some girl and you wondering perhaps, maybe you also . "Its not a competition or exam where you have to score".
  • The power of planning :- Planning doesn't sound cool, why should it ? Of all the movies we have watched lately the surprise and the thrill of an unplanned life is what the hero seeks and though he might not have any money or job but he goes to Europe and does all the crazy stuffs you cant even imagine. All pretty amazing but doesn't hold  good practically .
  • Fuck the outcome:- The next time something comes up and  I am torn between whether to ask for something or not, I will stop thinking and just go and ask.
  • This is your story :- It is you to choose, either you can be the guest in your own story compromising for other's ease or you can realize that it is about you only.

That is all for today. I hope this is not a one time thing and I will get back here more often and hopefully I will find the light in that basement and fix it for good .

A letter to Kapil Sibal

Dear Uncle, Sub: Close coaching classes but do something about quality of teachers in gov. colleges. I don't have your mail Id and you don't seem to be on facebook or other social networking sites either ( though   66A of the IT Act amended by United Progressive Alliance  shows how much you are connected to cyber world). Regular mail will never  reach upto you.                                                                           Sir ,I want to congratulate you on your out-of-box reforms in the educational field by some huge changes in Entrance test patten.And indeed they are strong steps in uprooting "Private Coaching hubs" like Kota and getting the real talent to National level.Certainly sir ,I can't agree more with you ,these are huge money sucking lices .But sir, I am pre...

The last Onam.

Image
                                ( photo courtesy:- Vaishakh karthikeyan) It wasn't different from any other sunday except waking up to the drum beats. I knew SAC (student affair council ) had organised Onam celebration today but for a 4th year guy (who hasn't been placed yet and who don't know any clairvoyant ) there are far more important things than being gregarious .But  finally I decided to go out and have a look at what was going on at the football ground. When I  reached the football ground ,what I saw was no different than any of the previous year's but still when I realised that this might be the last time I am going to see any of this ,my apathy turned into a little unacceptable regret. There was a crowd in front of me dancing in euphoria and the beauty of the scene was beyond  my words . Guys in their black kurta and white dhoti ,girls in their beautiful traditional attir...

I am a fake

Sometimes I think,” If eyes are the windows to the soul then grief is its door, as long as its closed, its the barrier between knowing and not knowing, walk away from it and it stays closed for ever. Open it and walk through it and pain becomes truth. And now I’ve faced the struggle for my own survival that I always knew was coming”......   Night at around 11.30,we  were returning from City to college .Not knowing if it was the cool breeze or the after exam mood as Akash asked “Sameer did you ever go to your parents, hug them and say that they are the best Parents and you love them too much..without any reason, just for the sake of what you are feeling...think of the response”. I saw his face and said “dude don’t  you think it seems a lil kiddish..I mean a lil awkward but that was a too intense question and my answers were not at all doing justice to the question”...................... Sometimes I think , I am the same person as the world looks upon me....
