On Death

Ever thought about death? About the inevitable biological clock that is ticking towards our doom?

Ever wondered how fast time flies? Just one day you are ten years old and the next you are forty-three.

Ever imagined the possibility of dying before your time and leaving a lot unsaid and undone? Of leaving behind a thousand mourners, or worse, none?

Life and death go hand in hand. Without one the other exists not. But why all of a sudden has this profound truth dawned on me? The answer is – music.

And not just any kind, but my favorite – Leave Out All the Rest by Linkin Park. The song is… damn!!!

Hearing the song again has reminded me that time is short, we don’t have forever. So don’t just sit there, run and get your shit together. The clock’s ticking.

And me, well, I have been sprinting since the day I was born. I guess I need to push my feet harder against the ground and get where I wish to before my time ends.

So enjoy this little offering and remember, the concept for today is DEATH.

Or that your country is a bleb on the map of the world unless you are a resident of one of the largest countries of the world (like me). And if you are then you are almost invisible if you consider the wriggling mass of bodies residing in your country right now. Continue reading

The Dark Knight Rises: An Experience Like No Other

The Dark Knight Rises

Anyone with half a brain would understand what has me raving after reading the header. Oh yeah, the dark knight has me going in crazy fan girl circles even now.

We went for the movie last night, me and my family. I was excited when we walked into PVR and was expecting a movie that would blow my mind. But after watching the epic end of the Batman trilogy I think blown-out-of-my-mind is a sentiment that falls too short of explaining exactly how I feel.

Inspire Me

Blogging is hard. The last 10 months have taught me that the hard way. In fact if you are not posting thrice a week then you can guarantee that you will spiral down and give up on the whole gig within one month’s time.

And here’s a secret — posting every day is easier than posting thrice a week.

Well, the ones who don’t do it will say that it’s BS. They will also ask why I think writing something good everyday is easier than three times a week where we have more time on our hand between each post.

Well, here’s the answer Continue reading
