What I've Done

People are strange when you're a stranger Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted streets are uneven when you're down
When you're strange faces come out of the rain when you're srange........................so sang Jim.......
But that is something very true...very very true. Whatever you think of them thy can surprise you at every moment. The expectations thy have of you.the expectations you have of them
Its hard to make every1 arnd u happy no matter wat you do you somehow somewhere put yourself infront and let go of others. This hurts people although you never intended to.
People are strange...they make views very quickly on different topics.What you said what you meant. what you didnt mean and the related stuff.they don't give u a chance to explain urself,forming their opinions and sticking to them no matter what.
I find this aspect very disturbing because for me everyone i care abt should always have a good opinion of me.If by any chance i have left them down then i try my best to let them know whether it was a fault of mine or not and even if it was, why it happened.But like life ppl dnt give u a second chance.for them what's once done is done no turning back.But im nt like tht.I give people chance to say they are sorry and accept their explanations as to why things happened.I am always willing to lend an ear,something i'm always short of when it is my turn.
Expectations.....what does this word mean?what does it include?its always hard to live up to other's expectations is wat every1 says.but is tht really true or is it tht we promise so much to others tht thy strt thnkn more and more of us nd as a consequence thy want us to deliver more everytime?Friendship is one relationship where every1 says tht all u shd ever do is give nvr expect nethng in return..But how cn tht be are we not humans?do we ourselves don't want nethng for ourselves?I believe whoever said tht must have gotten a lot............
Life is beautiful...........people spend time worrying about stuff tht doesn't really matter actually.I know i do it all the time.I tend to live in the past whereas LIFE is now...I keep on telling myself not to sweat the small stuff but still i do.its when heart runs over mind tht such decisions are taken.This is why we feel th pain and hurt when something goes wrong because we are nevr detached frm th worldly possessions.From emotions,greed,want..............But then again if all this goes missing from our lives then wat kind of life would we be living?A dull monotonous life where everyday we would want death to come and take us away.Is that normal?that is a sadistic thought but sadly many of us feel like this a lot of time.
Finally...............the question now arises that is there a cure for all this?Can human suffering be controlled?Can emotions,need and want really exist and still not make us miserable?Can we strike the right balance?If so do we need someone with us to strike that balance or can we handle it on our own?These are some of the many thoughts that crossed my mind today which i have written here and hope to get some answers to.Who answers them for me is still a mystery............................


P.S. - Thoughts might not have been articulated properly so for further clarifications don't contact me.

A Look Back

Ok its been around a two month break since i last wrote on Christmas. A lot has happened since then in my life. Saw many results come out..for the exams i was preparin.....
A lot of studyin and practise ensued....hardwork is needed.Man i did study i can say that much. But the fact remains was that enough, coz others too would have studied..nt me alone......Wat is it that makes MBA exams so popular and the hysteria around them.People are today mad about doin MBA.It doesn't matter from where they do it.They have to do it.This is how people feel.
Here i atleast think something is missing.So much stress on good management skills has been put that people today don't regard the other skills with same dignity. I mean u cn still be a leader and a team player even if ur nt a manager.But somehow the degree seems to emphasise the opposite.Even the corporates are not willing to give candidates a chance if they are not from a B-school let alone a good B-school.This social structure is putting undue stress on people today.Mnagement today is looked upon as a necessity rather than a want or need.
Why has this developed is not difficult to understand but i won't talk about that.It's disturbing engh tht this exists.Can we imagine wat is this rat race leading to.people are working hard getting higher degrees,working late,stayin away from family,earnong big bucks,splurging them on materialistic things.Things which are ephemeral in their value.Consequently, they get bored with them soon.Big pay packets have given rise to high degree of consumerism.what has this resulted in?Envy among peers/neighbours for sure.I doubt that many are satisfied with the kind of life they are living.Running around here and there.Taking orders from ppl thy dnt respect.Submitting themselves to greed.
why is it so has any one ever stopped to think and consider.If you take a survey the answer would most probably come out a big no.People are too busy to think where their life is headed and why their doin wat thy r doin.Is this wat thy want and if so thn y? just because somebody else has it or is this ur aim in life.if people stop for a while take some rest and take a look back at their lives thy would surely not be very happy.The missed b'day of their loved one.The first steps of ur kid.Ur parents anniversary.Somethings money can't buy says the MasterCard,that definitely includes Time,Love among others.But i would like to focus on time at this point.
Time is the biggest reality.It has brought down the biggest of empires through out history.No one has stood and defeated time.So why do ppl today thnk thy can.Death will come no matter how much advances science can make.So y the fighting and running around.You came alone to this world,and you will go alone.You wont take away nethn.no money,clothes,memories,love..nthn
everything is so superficial yet it is this wat we demand.what we crave for.this is wat has taken away our peace of mind.But its high time ppl do smthn abt it.This life is nt to be wsted.Appreciate it.start by appreciating nature.Ur fellow humans,animals.Find beauty where u cn and learn to appreciate.Take ur mind off grievances instead learn to be happy in small things.That makes a hell of a differnce.develop love in ur dealings.Try to be more happy thn sad.take out time fr urself.think about stuff.let ur mind relax.
Its high time we took a step back and gave A LOOK BACK.
