Over the gates

January 9th, 2012

Hi,
today is

A new breath

October 22nd, 2011

Hi,

Finally got some energy. Believe it or not, i am typing from a computer terminal after several months. It feels awkward- wha to talk about? what to share? The country is undergoing change, if you are feeling scared, don’t  worry, even I am scared,  everybody is. You may  be more scared- You got families to care for. I am scared because I am aware of the change. But don’t worry
“Even it shall pass”.

Living as a common man is an experience in itself. It is ‘on duty 24 hours’. Deeper i sink into the shoes of a common man- more i respect them all. No longer do I blame them for not paying attention, No longer can I say - they are careless.  They are brave people, women they are gallent.

More then that, my anger towards the educated, previlidged society  is reducing.  It is being replaced by horror.  A group of people living in wonderland, like Alice. We are not worth critisism, but worth pity. Living in an wonderland, building a wonderland, acting blind folded. We don’t even know where we are headed with the horse collars.   

Five months back, I had decided to retract- I said to myself, I done enough, now got to take care of my life. Then, I came across the works of Mr. P. Sainath. It blew me out of my shoes, I havn’t seen real poverty yet. Yes, africa is in bad condition, but our population isn’t doing any better either.

The job is not done. But the way ahead, I don’t know; This is eating me like a virus. I have grown weak now,
being  a common man has this effect. But being one common man who has seen down the drain can drive you mad. Only Lord knows what I should be doing ahead. May be I need to find a teacher for myself.
God knows and in him I trust and thus I walk.

Yes! before I end this post..
Thank you to the Central government, J&K government & everybody else for considering to remove AFSPA from J&K. I know it is hard, but someday we all have to wake up. Someday we all have to understand people need to feel free, wings grow only when the  bird feels free. Hard for the guards, but freedom is the only way out of the chakraview.

God Bless India

hi,
One of our best pasttime-scrutinizing where did we start to fall. Hoping, if we find it will correct all that went wrong & well! build a better future.
Past can’t be unwritten, should never be erased. it was, with the agreement of that moment. What you have is today. You are a product of what was. Build from where you are, with what you are.

for several people, the level of persecutions’ been high. They suffer, have suffered lot but to transfer that suffering to your surrounding is not the solution.

hi,

last friday, had a very serious discussion with my good friend, ‘A’ regarding ‘me’. Did the term politics, peace, development not sneak in? they did.

but the final topic; one that disarmed me; lasted for 3 hours; we didn’t finish.

‘Me’
i have spent a considerable time chasing freedom, yet it deludes me. every step has taken me closer to people. everytime i finish; a new challenge appears.

‘A’ asked a valid question -what about you? I had no answer, the ‘me’, I realize, has disappeared.

hi,

ever felt irritated with the daily struggle in the city. how many of us console ourselves by saying life is an struggle, an everyday fight. how many of us are out there praying to gods ‘let me have a life free of hassle’ ‘a day of peace’??

a part of this disturbance lies inside. how many of us transfer a part of disturbance to others? if you have spent most of your time & still find life tough. i suggest- cooperate, share a smile.

city is huge, but you would, still, be able to build a happier family.uld, still, be able to build a happier family.

a bumpy road

hi,
two weeks, total six days each 24 hours long, passed. what did i write? zero articles :(
yes! i wrote poems. but i had planned articles. What happened?

there is a time for everything, why don’t i write more on oil? why don’t i write more on poor people? why do i write about a was going on outside? about exploitations abroad?
but not what goes on in India?

may be, coz’ i haven’t laboured enough, frankly speaking, i wanted to see before i comment, but i am still at square one.

hope i succeed.

The dot

April 22nd, 2011

   Hi,

I thought this post had been published. Writing using phone is really difficult, first a lot of drafts get lost, then did they get posted or not. Can’t be certain. Like this one- I don’t even remember what i wrote( apart from the topic)
so the name proved it-self. A dot. that is what was left of this post when I checked the blog. a dot I leave it - a reminder that words will be lost. And that should not matter.
(may be I am growing up :) )

Tick-tick-tick

Best of luck to team India.
I won’t get to watch it, I got to work tonight. Not too bad, considering I was lucky enough to watch the thrilling semifinal.
So, keep on watching.

I am busy these days. People around will say- what a joke! he works, he travels, he sleeps. we do too. But I will say, i am busy too. Well, i live in two shells.

one is of a simple worker. I have to act like all, try to earn a good salary, a good place to live.
You know all those things u need to do to live. A worker. A marginal at that, especially, I dislike office politics. May whatever your college school, teachers, family, friends have taught you. I will prove them all wrong one day. I promise to you.
then there is the second core of me i have to think about how the policies work, what can be done to better the situations, A heaven of a job. reading, analysing, putting them in theories,
trying to prove them right, wrong, then creating new once. Getting a new prospect on everything around. Studying the combined effect. Then looking at the result from people prospective, from trader, government, foreign organiazations. and finally writing a beautiful
paper. finally typing it on my blog, so that it satisfies it’s purpose.
Not easy! telling you not easy. Some weeks, it eats up everything that I am.
But that is what keeps me alive. Yup, its not the dal bhat or kheer or the pizza, but this passion for change that keeps me on.

These days i am trying to look at the financial views from a different prospective.
If you are thinking why did I not write on The increased industrial inflation, then don’t think I did not have anyviews, i composed a post in my mind then deleted it. (i can do that)
Because the moment conclusion was drafted, I was clear these are cycles. You know like season. People, keep on attempting and everybody learns.
It was urgency that forced me to write those posts. Otherwise I don’t do band-aiding.

For me, since i starting writing, the repair and construction of a sound base has been importent. Because that is what survives. That is what reproduces. that is what contineus the dreams of freedom, dreams of life.

..Got to leave for office! see u again.
Best of luck for the world cup.
Plan to write -WE WON!!! tomorrow morning-

with hearts: Cheers

Best of luck to The team. May this day write history. both in books of game and books of love.
We have faught since a long time with each other, on fields of cricket and away.

A union of thoughts, independently existing and following their potencial, if attempted, can lead us towards peace and love.

Hope today’s game turns out to be the change we all have wished.

History, takes it’s time but within the span of moments changes everything. Everything that we were and we could be.

Best of luck for the Semi Finals,

………..Apurva
