Juding/love

Lately, I have been thinking about the parameters on which we evaluate or define a person. The most run-of-the mill answer would be goals, nature and conduct.

However, taking into consideration the dynamism of the surroundings we exist, the evaluation of a person on the basis of these objectives would not yield accurate result. But any alternative has not come into my knowledge as yet!

Those who know me would probably feel that I am being sanctimonious. But I would rather say that the prejudices or preconceived notions I have about some people are a result of past experiences. And a contributing factor in my accurate judgement has been understanding people on a different plane. My ability to judge and understand has been my privilege throughout!

Looking back, I wish I had spent more time loving people than trying to comprehend their behavior and actions. Though the intentions were pure, the repercussions were not in my favor.

Saying that, I would like to end this blog post to catch a little sleep. Which I believe is my prerogative today!

Things I am going to miss about school

Lunch boxes, all shapes, sizes and colours. The smell of maa ke hath ka khana that would reach the teacher's nostrils before the food would reach my mouth.

The excitements rain brought. The darkening of the sky, jumping between puddles in the school compound, walking to school in ankle length water. Eternal bliss.

The way we waited for Reproduction chapter to be taught in class 8 and 10 despite having read the whole chapter line by line five times already ( the plant part excluded). Giggles and sheepish grins that were visible in every corner of the class when somebody asked a doubt.

Official bunking in the name of annual day, teacher's day etc. and the rehearsals for months just did not matter. We were always under prepared on the day of the performance.

The opportunity of wearing casuals on special occasions would involve 36 hours of decision making. (Am I overdressed? Or maybe under dressed?)

The punishment given to a large number of students just did not mean punishment, it meant fun! Standing outside the class and explaining the reason to every teacher/student that passed by. ( Is teacher ka to daily ka hai)

The school picnics in which the teachers would act crazier than the students. The candid conversations, truth and dare games and then returning to the same old teacher-student relationship the very next day.

The fact that school ends on a few months gives me jitters. It is a mixed feeling which cannot be put into words. The one quote that keeps me going is "Tomorrow always comes, and today is never yesterday".

Zero to infinity

Clouds of uncertainty loom large
Fear seeks abode in my soul
Energy draining down
Hope being sucked in a black hole

No time to turn around
Nothing to fall back on
This is a game of loss
Nothing is to be won

Two individuals drifting apart
Reunion beyond my ability
Lets embark on a new journey
From zero to infinity

Random Rants

Old jeans, old wine and old relationships. Some things just get better with time!

I had thought of taking a sabbatical from writing, but because of the amazing response I have been getting lately I dropped the idea. I got more than 1000 views last month from all over the world :D
Just wanted to let you know, that i really really appreciate comments and would love to know your views about my blog.

Game over

Right since the beginning, we are told that we are a part of the game. The game in which everything is at stake. There is a loser and a winner, and we must put in every effort to emerge as the winner. Cause ultimately, the world doesn't see how much effort has one put in and doesn't demand or expect an explanation. The only important thing is the final outcome.
But what people will never understand is that, there may not be a winner every time. Sometimes, both the parties are at the losing end. There is no outcome of incessant activities we are constantly indulged in.There might be a winner, and Mission accomplished might flash in bold letters across the scene, but the winner has nothing to gain. Absolutely nothing.
