Thought of the day !!!

I think and think for months and years. Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right.

- Albert Einstein

Somewhere I Belong !!!

(When this began)
I had nothing to say
And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find
That I’m not the only person with these things in mind
(Inside of me)
But all the vacancy the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I’ve got left to feel
(Nothing to lose)
Just stuck/ hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

[Chorus]
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I’ve held so long
(Erase all the pain till it’s gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real
I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

And I’ve got nothing to say
I can’t believe I didn’t fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
Looking everywhere only to find
That it’s not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
(So what am I)
What do I have but negativity
’Cause I can’t justify the way, everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain/ hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

[Repeat Chorus]
I will never know myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel anything else, until my wounds are healed
I will never be anything till I break away from me
I will break away, I'll find myself today

[Repeat Chorus]
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong

A long drive towards the palace city

Not so long time back, in the same month I had a memorable long drive to the city of palace ‘Mysore’. It was one of those unexpected rainy day when you can feel the magic of the rain drops. The interesting part of the drive was that we took the newly constructed Bangalore-Mysore infrastructure corridor (BMIC) route, which finally touches the state highway. And rest follows here ..

memories !!!

I wonder how many times someone has to re-discover the meaning of this life before realizing the fact that life never stops. Every time you rant, there it goes - you can give a different meaning to the life spend in minutes, hours, days and years. And one fine day you could see it is made up of those countless memories. Needless mentioning a special effort, what it takes to hold on to whatever memories we have... I guess, there is no shape, size or measurement of these memories; just as anything that really matters. The loved ones, the hated ones … good ones, bad ones … sad ones, happy ones … painful ones, pleasurable ones and last but not the least those unforgettable ones; my list keep on growing day by day. Don’t forget to check yours !!!

This is not happened for the first time, not for the second time and not for the last time but it happened every time with me again and again… leaving me behind all those memories. When I look back, sometimes I find myself a lucky one to encounter with all those people, events and things that made this life with full of different memories. Surely they play an important role in guiding all the dreams of life to reality or do I say actually they helped in dreaming more. However, at the same time some of them can be destructive enough to blow you off from the feet. One of the most common things that you can figure out with all those memories is that they find their own ways to attach with some person(s) or with a place(s). And how does that matter if you forget such a person or a place but still the memory stick on to you like glue. Another thing that you can notice about those memories is that they were always having an association with a period of time. Nevertheless time plays a bigger or rather a crucial role in wiping out some of those memories from this ever changing life.

So next time you think of any one of those memories be sure you wear a big smile on your face just to be with yourself, no matter how difficult or sad it was that had thrown you out to a blank or strange state of mind. Because many time you live with it, and that’s where you can mark the difference between yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Just another day !

A beautiful sunset that was mistaken for a dawn.

Weekend Again !!!

Last week, last to last week and some more weeks added to my lists of the busiest days. Some times they influence me to stay away from things that I really don’t wanted to. Things are going pretty much my ways but again I am occupied with so many stuffs, hardly finding any time to think about myself. Now, what next? I don't know whether it's an indication that I am living in pieces? or life is just like that ... You like to be busy then lazy with things you can not hold your attention but hey! maybe it’s a sign of being what you are inspite of what others demand from you forgiving their indifferences, and you just go by the time - the present time. I don't know whether time will remain by my side but certainly now I have smiles for no apparent reasons and guess I mustn’t go crazy about it.

On this lazy weekend, listening to some of my most favorite 'Linkin Park’ songs, is one of the best things I can think of right at this moment. They can simply rock anything that comes on your way. I was dying for a break and here it is ... re-discovering the fact that a blank, a silence & a dark not always bring us something odd, bad or ugly. Of course! they can also be marked for something good or better reason :)

Enjoy the wonderful lyrics from the album ‘Minutes to Midnight’

Shadow of the day ...
I close both locks below the window

I close both blinds and turn away
Sometimes solutions aren't so simple
Sometimes goodbye's the only way.

And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you.

In cards and flowers on your window
Your friends all plead for you to stay
Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple
Sometimes goodbye's the only way.

And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you.

The Magical Rays !!!

What I discovered backside of my work place was a surprise for most of us out there. Lucky me, got the glimpse of those magical rays of sun on that perfect Tuesday evening. I couldn’t manage to stop the inspiring thought and it hits my mind again ...

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm but to add color to my sunset sky.

Weekend Smiles :)

Life has so many different things stored for us at some point or other. Nevertheless, you could find a different meaning or a simple reason for them every time you have one such thing with you. Guess what? I caught with some overwhelming feelings tonight. But for sure I have one or more reasons not to worry or overlook it. I don’t know but "the thought of being incomplete disappears when you just feel likes what you are" and there can't be anything that can beat being like "Me".

I guess, the changes happening around me are for good and am I blissful, yet? … Wow ! it feels so good ... I didn’t even realize that I am done with one of those hectic and terribly loaded work week and that's where I see the magic :)

Avalanche Trip (Nilgiri) - Life is calling ...

A long drive, date with a jungle , a night out and in the end it turned out to be one of the most adventurous trips of the year. What I have explored is completely new and different for me and that’s what I say exploring the unseen.

The People’s Car (???)

People says lots of stuffs about Nano . I am not denying the fact that it will surely a milestone in the success story of modern India. Hey give a second thought to it, no doubt it's a wonderful car (I too assume) but do we really think we can save our footpaths ???. The problem here is totally different and most of us aware of the situation, now we can afford a car or anything that matters but it’s just impossible to stick on to it. You can buy a car but what about fuel rates ? what about the roads ? and last but not the least what about safety ? I am sure; all these things will be still far from the reach of the crowd. And Nano will definitely add more problems to the current situation, sounds like miracle to me if someone will prove it wrong.

With the infrastructure in the cities going bad day by day, can we really enjoy such things in the future ??? Probably the answer is a big NO. Take an example of Bangalore's whitefield rd. the only (2nd) road that connects it with the city and it is so horrible by now. And hey forget about creating new roads or expanding these existing roads because there is not an inch space left for the future.

Not so long time, back I have taken these pictures using my mobile phone while on the move inside this area …

I guess, this situation is similar in almost all the cities and it’s not so hard to realize we are making things to make sure our life is more miserable in the coming days.
