[Note that this is a re-post of a really old blog post of mine (on a secret blog, no less!) ] I find myself metamorphosing into something harder and colder. No longer the romantic fool. No longer the playful child who stared awed at the world. No longer the fool who set out to conquer [...]
Another one of those (frequent) resets in my life. Like a Windows 98 installation. Gets “bloated” over time and needs frequent re-installs (resets). Hmm. Hope it lasts longer this time around.
Immortality. The holy grail of existence. Many strive for it. Some attain immortality in the memory of others. I restrict my thoughts to biological immortality. Living forever. What if you could live forever? Some would opine that living forever is a curse. You live on while those around you fade away. I feel that beyond [...]
I got this from an old blog of mine. The article is written by RainMirage on E2. Hopeless romantics believe in love and fairy-tales. They dream of roses and candlelight, walking on the beach at sunset, and dancing in the rain. They know that somewhere out there is a knight in shining armour ready to [...]
All my delusions of youth were shattered when I took my cousin shopping last time I went home. We went to this really classy place (according to my cousin) and I was busy shopping. However, after a while, I noticed that my cousin was hardly interested in anything and was just standing around, staring at [...]
The son has put on a brave face and taken command of the situation. Ushering guests in, showing people around, handling the workers, generally running around, pushing back his grief. The daughter was crying vociferouly. Ridden by guilt that was unwarranted. Guilt she couldn’t do more. The son stops to reprimand her, reminding her that [...]
The earliest memory of conning that I can remember was when a guy approahed me in the train station, asking for help. Still green those days, I lent a concerned ear to his woeful tale. He spun a fantastic tale of how misfortune befell him on his journey and how he ended up without a [...]
[Those who haven’t already, please head over to the here and check out the presentation on the 11 dimensions.] Life sure is good in the 5th dimension. Sometimes I wonder if we, the 3rd dimension beings , would ever be able to penetrate through the higher dimensions. Maybe it would not be possible without help [...]
Hardly anything dispels your ego like star gazing. I love to lie on the terrace, gazing at the stars, letting it sink in, that I am a miniscule carbon based lifeform on a miniscule planet revolving around a not-so-significant star in just one of the many galaxies. I yearn to reach out and touch the [...]
Why is change so hard to accept? I believe its fear of the unknown. The known we are comfortable with. It is often the unknown that scares us, and by unknown, I mean the really unknown, the one which we have no idea about. Maybe that is why death is scary to most. For no [...]
