Something to write

It doesnt happen often with me that I set out to write without knowing what exactly the piece is all about. Some things I have done in the recent past.

1. Cut my hair so short that people jump, as usual, to assumptions like - my girlfriend has ditched me, its my way to cherish the flavour of the season ( how wierd!), one of my colleagues even suspected I am under chemotherapy ( it was difficult for him to visualise a curly haired to have lost so much hair, in so little time). I just wanted to get rid of it and I did. Why cry over it ??

2. Observed the rise of Zizou at the World Cupand the rampage of Federer. Guys like these, time and again, stand up to remind that though the play is already set on the roll,you can command the lead role if you are willing to.

3. Reduce my covetousness towards sleeping. There is no point in blaming the Egyptians, day after day, for making me fall short of my project deadlines ( why the hell there is only 24 hours???), and not even a genius like Heizenberg can explain my manager that at any given instant of time, it is impossible to work 8.5 hours a day and deliver the promised to the client. More than that, its a mental thing whether or not you sleep to rest. Enjoy your time when you are awake and you will never yearn to sleep!

4. You dont need anything reasonable to write a blog, the minimal being that you feel like writing one. and you have the result to prove it.

5. Realise that its nothings wrong to feel that you could have done it better after every attempt fo what you attempt to - the same I feel now. In fact, the more you feel you have the space to grow. The same one a lizard feels every time after losing its tail ( May be ).

6. Drinking is not that bad ( yeah its bad is it ??), provided you take in till your comfort zone is not breahced and also your poor neighbours' isnt.

Cheers,
