institutionally inclined for travesty

as a rejoinder to this blog , and a rather generic point of view of indian mindset, i decide to just give out a generic outpouring nothing against a specific example. Humans are inclined to be institutionally minded. nay, not the mental kind but the fact that, they all need to subscribe to certain rules and regulations, certain accepted norms of goodness, badness and ugliness. a human is mostly unable to singularly determine what is good, bad or ugly. for most cases. he needs the spoon feeding of a society to explain to him these finer nuances. he also believes in comfort that he is not alone and belongs to a group of "like minded " individuals like him. it gives a man certain degree of achievement of having a sense of purpose of belonging. With such insititutionally minded society, which is known as a "sabha" , comes out an important aspect of human societal mind, the political structure which controls within the sabha and out of it too. this political structure hi...

and then it hits me...i am still stuck

today i realized that certain things come to your life, leave an impression and leave you rooted to it for rest of your life. At least the life in which one can still think and feel. today i "googled" the past just to come across the fact that the past could very well be at end of the street. end of the better street of my life. Not for the past, the drudgery i drag my ass back to at end of the day. Not for the past, the responsibility, but for the past the new shining window of opportunities and success. It filled me with love pride hatred envy anger desolation and depression, all at the same time. And that is when i realized I am stuck with these feelings and the rest of my life is to be able to get over them, tough i must say or get myself over my past in my own eyes....tough too someone said life is not fair....i agree..... someone said life is a game of win and lose...i disagree someone disagreed with the above that life is win-win for some and lose-lose for rest....I ag...

wud atlas have held up?

What would have Atlas done if God was pissing on him from top and the dogs were biting his legs? would he have thrown the world and walked away? What is a man to do in such a case? a walk away is considered cowardice or understandable?or keep holding up the god forsaken world? i guess the load is not just in the load we are supposed to hold up but also the "distractions" which keep bothering us when we have to hold up the load.... wish we can all walk away and send the "world" crashing to pieces!

something really apt....

in this era of acronyms and lols and omgs, communication is pretty much hitting the nadir. in this time , i come across this quote from "ameen sayani" Five ‘S’ are very important for sanchar (communication). Firstly, it should be sahi . It should be correct. There should be no mistakes in it. Secondly, it should be satya . It should be truthful. Thirdly, it should be spasht , absolutely clear and unambiguous. Fourthly, it should be saral or simple. And lastly, it should be sundar . It must be appealing and attractive. Perfect!
