Its OVER!
Its not!
Face it..and you'll know its over!
How can you be so sure? How can you decide?
I can feel it
Feel what? have you really thought?
No. Thinking makes it seem irrational
Oh yeah? Since when has feeling become rational?

Urrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! Lets just get back to studying! We can deal with this later...
Procrastination!!

Learning Lessons....
Living without and away from your family teaches you lessons of life, some from your own mistakes and some from others... I have been learning a few....
1. Appreciate. Its difficult at times..but do it anyways!
2. Always use the Golden words- Please, Thank you, Sorry. Yes, even when the other person doesn't!
3. Its never tit-for-tat. Neither revenge nor hatred is a key to a peaceful mind.
4. Keep your word. Always!
5. At all times and I mean every minute, be selfless with at least one person around you. Selfishness screws you up - one way or the other.
6. Money isn't everything.
7. Relationships are meant to be preserved, not money.
8. Never ever discuss people. No one has the right to defile one's image.
9. Ignore gossips. Only narrow minds do it. And they are meant to fill up the emptiness in those minds.

Three is a crowd
Aquarians make very few friends they say. If that is true then I am a hard-core Aquarian!
As I look back into my life...wait! I am not that old yet! I am still in my sweet twenties! :) But what's the harm in looking into the past?!! So, as I look back, I find that I have had few friends and fewer close friends. And I wonder if it is me or just the people around me...
"I love gossiping about people" I hear one 'friend' say, others seem to derive some sadistic pleasure by taunting and lying to people, and the rest seem to have drowned in a sea of spuriousness...And I wonder where are all the ethics of the world have disappeared? To me, they seem to be like a fairy tale which most of us laugh about and forget as we reach our adult hood...Morality and loyalty have become words of yesterday...
It used to be 'live and let live'...now it has turned to 'lie and let lie'...unfortunately everyone seems to have forgotten the "WE" from it....
Where do I place myself then? Who do I mingle with? Who is my friend? How do I become a part of the group? Well, where is the group in the first place?! I just see a crowd...My conscious tells me that I should not bend my morals and principles to 'fit' in the crowd...if it has to be a two's company then so be it...at least "we" would keep the "we" in 'live' alive! Cheers to Li'we'ing!

Where the mind is without fear
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
- Rabindranath Tagore
With due respect to the great Rabindranath Tagore I apologize for tampering with his wonderful verse I'd like to add (quite selfishly),
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let ME awake....
Help me fight with the demons of my mind so that I can make my home, my city, my country, my world be a better place...

Make me numb....
Away from the world,
Into a pensive, I wish to reside
Far from the realities, I yearn to hide
O God, make me numb……
I can feel the prickling thorns and the biting frost
If nothing else works,
Bleed me if you want,
Please O God, make me numb…..
I close my mind but tears flow out,
I stop the tears, my heart cries loud,
Stop that heart if you can,
O God, do anything to make me numb……

I close my mind but tears flow out,
I stop the tears, my heart cries loud,
Stop that heart if you can,
O God, do anything to make me numb……

Move on!
I love traveling.
Traveling is your best teacher...so true! I have never missed a lesson every time I have traveled...whether it is going shopping or flying across the world, whether it is traveling alone or with friends and family....each person, each place, each adventure teaches you a new lesson...
That is why I never like to miss out on traveling...cuz one ride missed is equal to one lesson missed..and who knows I might never get to learn that lesson again in my life...
I wonder if nomads were were the most intelligent kinds of all! Anyone tried brain mapping on them?! :P

Way back into love
I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past
I just can't seem to move on
I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need them again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
Oh oh oh
I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere
I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end
