Creatures of the Deep

Ever wondered why cigarette smokers cant Quit?? And if they smoke they god damn well shouldn't.... Why addiction is So good.... bad???
Because its simply passionate... U don't think so? Passion can drive a human sanely insane to the extent of turning his universe into flying fishes if he may so perceive!! [reminds u of taare zameen pe??]
It brings in such a zeal that can make one go to a turn which he mustn't have even imagined in his wildest nightmares.....
Just like a cigarette.... Was watching a cigarette turn to ashes today....
It gave me a pretty interesting insight. & i thot of presenting it to none other than my readers...
The zealous & passionate paper roll injected with a little tobacco doing wonders to the person inhaling the smoke emitted at the other end does make one wonder of the things that every living, dead, harmful, sinful, soulful things on earth hv some lesson & some perspective that can touch ur hearts.. Its similar to the glass being half full theory..
the paper roll by means of enlightening tobacco makes sure that the smoke reaches his destiny...
Its almost like composition & destruction going together... & almost the paper confessing to a small amount of tobacco which in turn doing just by way of flames [read the zeal of fire] to the person inhaling his death at the other end....
As if the paper roll existed in flesh & bones heading towards its mission & composing the slow destruction of the smoker... But the smoker still invites his death... He knows he is dying... but he loves to be at the receiving end.. WHY? because he experiences the transformations. He is like the buddha waiting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
AMAZING... AIN'T IT????
A cigarette breaks down to ashes. Its whole purpose in life is to serve its whole & break down to ashes. In breaking its own self into ashes to give a high [read kick] to the owner. venting itself for the sole purpose of the other?
Just like every one of us... who will break down to ashes one fine day... the only justification we need to give ourselves is did we receives the HIGHS, the kicks???
The cigarettes motto is So defined!! So full of conviction... What does it take to own that kind of power? for a human being of course!!!
I totally believe in the concept of power for & of a human being... [Fans of Ayn Rand anyone??]
Its the conviction to fight against the whole world just to defend what is true for you.
It takes the zeal of the burning cigarette, the desire of a passionate lover & a spirit of eagle to make ur dreams come true.
But why am i saying all this??
Again... blame it on my whim.... The thots knocked me & i simply welcomed the guest...
& then they came inn & poured this down on me.... so i had to download all of this somewhere.!!!..
hehe hehe...


Guess its bec.... probably once n a while we all need gyaan ... & i hv lotsa it....


But it doesnt end here... the cigarette theory continues... someday i guess ill find my cigarette... ;)


Cheers!!

Parallel Dreams

Apologies for being away for a long time! Not that i had nothing to write but blame it on lethargy, lack of spirit i suppose or anything you like... But since this blog exists on my whims i do get a benefit of doubt for being away... ;)
No blogs for the new year is absolutely a shame.. Moreover when it comes to the next generation budding writer. So here I am once again to satisfy the quest of my readers...


I dont have anything particular to write but its just that i have been pondering over some things that exist in a parallel fashion in ones mind. For instance career...
U may want to do one thing but you might actually end up doing something else!! And still, this does not mean you cant do it effectively. But its just that only if you had something of your choice ud be better off.... there is just one more thing i have realized... Seldom in life you get the money & the satisfaction out of any one task... And this is good!!!
Bec this is a case where your quest for doing something else opens up new avenues. Dis-satisfaction is not particularly a negative feeling. Exploited properly it can turn out your best advantage. Its just that the daily rigmarole of running behind big money [which is absolutely OK!!] takes a toll out of you. It tends to bog you down...
So what can you do to fight dis-satisfaction?? Take up a hobby... sounds hackneyed?? yes.. but seldom does anybody follow it. Its important to do things of your interest to keep the flame alive. Just because you landed up in a wrong job does not mean you loose the faith... u gotta multi-task... to keep the sanity... so that you LIVE life rather than just life living you??
Sounds unconvincing?? do i sound like an aunt giving some lecture??
So be it. I only talk from experience... There is so much i want to do in my life apart from just being a damned Business Analyst.. I respect it coz it pays me... Otherwise my life has a different direction al together.. If I just continue to be a Business Analyst all my life ill be a failure and will be passing on tht failure for generations.. . Somebody once told me.. You can only pass on what you have not what you don't. [that was the first & last thing that I believed that person.. lol]
So if i take up some dance classes, some guitar classes, some course on bunjee jumping, para gliding or even bar tending ill do better as a business analyst.
You don't believe me??? U outta try it dude!!
You know why?? Because my right brain will be at par with my left brain. :)
Leaving you with these beautiful lyrics by Avril Lavigne:

"My Happy Ending"

So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...

Let's talk this over
It's not like we're dead
Was it something I did?
Was it something You said?
Don't leave me hanging
In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread

You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be

[Chorus:]
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...

You've got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell you I'm difficult
But so are they
But they don't know me
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me
All the shit that you do [CD version]
All the stuff that you do [radio edited version]

You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be

[Chorus]

It's nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done

[Chorus]

Cheers
Sne!!
