W for ....

It was a long and tiring day.
He winded up his training and headed to his favourite spot.... the tree shade amid-st the rocky terrain atop the hill.
It was particularly calm and breezy as opposed to the howling winds growling in the ear.
He felt the soothe on his face and closed his eyes to enjoy the short stay there.
Leaning against the tree in his usual posture, he got lost in his world.
His mind was still lingering to the thought.
Being an avid reader and day dreamer, he always wanted to develop the fuzzy thought and plume it into much clearer words and someday he wish to see himself transform into a good writer.
He believes in his principles firmly.
Peace and patience come before pride to him.
Something flashed in his mind and he quickly started penning down:

Once, people worked for earning food and shelter.
Then, people worked for the nation... developing and expanding it.
Now, people work... but strife dominates the lifestyle.

Waging wars?
Winning them?
Whining about work?
Waiting for wonders to happen?
Wishing for dreams to come true?
Writing about all this? logging down everything and portray things as history to the future generations?
Where is this all leading to??
What is the world becoming?

He paused for a moment.
Stepped out from his world and started thinking about the world around him.

He shifted the pen to the top of the page.
Wrote "W for ......"

He then thinks for a while and goes back to adding more content:

The cheeks would no longer soak in the tears of disdain.
The weary torsos stand tall in the rain of pain.
The will power let them battle to the end and sustain!
The rage of persisting hope rises all over again!!
Peace prevails and washes off the bloodstains...

And finally, he realises... that W stands for... Wisdom!!

One pleasant morning

******ONE PLEASANT MORNING****** I went out to meet my friends at the juice stall(our fav. meeting place). Asusual, we chatted for about half an hour and then when we were about to get back, one pretty gal passed tht way. So cute she was, I asked myself this is no dream. right?? As she went on her scooty, I cud'nt see her for even a minute. As she is passing by, blinding white light came upon. (The same was M.S explains his ad concept to venky in Vasu) All the while when seeing her, I could hear a song playing in the background. Even after that scene, the song was still playing so clearly. But from where????? And in the mean while, one of my friends started tapping me. I woke up rubbing my eyes, and Raghu was trying to wake me up. And ofcourse, the song is coming from the PC speakers. Damn! I shud have realized...from where else can it be heard? Actually that was a slow song with quite good music. The songs these days come up with nasty beats and crazy lyrics...takes u days...no no

routine lo variety

It happened so in the midnight of the late June of 2006 (er....dont mind if the sentence construction is bad) That after chatting with Abhay, I started writing this thing. Had a lot of work to do.....RI, GATE preperation, CAT preperation....what not....the list is not a small one.....but everyday, as I wakeup, I feel the same thing....LAZINESS!!! SO, the obvious result is bore bore bore... Here are a few ways we found out to get out of it.... -> Watch movies....yeah...thats the top of the list. Maybe u think its the routine way. But u are mistaken! We watch movies starting from Veerabhadra, Bangaaram to any extent....expecting mere comedy. The list is getting worse day by day -> Chatting.....Well, that counts to a minimum of 3 hours of my day. Half of it accounts to my friends out of station....and the rest to those even from the same wing as mine....and mostly done during late nights. The reason? too lazy to go there at that time.....and for some reason, it relieves from the fee

Hectic Week

This week is totally hectic for me!!! To be frank, I worked sincerely only this week. This somehow reduced my boredom. Now lemme tell u a small funny incident that took place just a few days ago. This is just a sample of how we ppl are mentally developed and truely reflects the IQ :P I was trying to study in my room at around 8 PM. Raghu wanted to watch a film. So he asked me to switch off the lights. I gave a helpless expression showing the book in my hands. Then he gave an expression as if he suddenly realised that I wud get disturbed. Then he turned to SitaRam who is sitting next to me, and asked him-"He is studying naa, y to disturb him....u go and switch off the lights". Without giving a second thought, Sita went and switched off the lights. Raghu and I looked at each others faces and could'nt control our laughter. Sita was still not able to figure out the reason. Later he too laughed when I explained him.
