All About Being lazy

It surely has something to do with the stringently hectic professional life recently.
I have been stupendously lazy now-a-days. Call it my uncanny penchant for comfort or an overly empowered boredom blooming all over my mind - both resulting in a lazy me.

All the to-do tasks including the urgent ones seems nearly pejorative to be accomplished. Despite my untiring efforts ( Lol !!) , things hardly seems to improve.

Why do it Today , when U can do it Tomorrow – is the latest anthem I have roped in recently.Phew!

Even while writing this , I am unsurprisingly Gone Blank. And I would definitely call it Bankruptcy of words.

Life - Then and Now

I Miss the days when at 8 a.m. , I used to get ready for school and not for office.

I Miss those days when at 9 a.m. , I used to be in the school bus and not in the office cab.

I Miss those days when at 10.30 a.m , I used to chat and fight over a pencil and not do a few key-strokes on the Keyboard.

I Miss those days when at 12.30 p.m. , I used to open my Lunch Box and not bite onto some tedious Burger.

I Miss those days when at 2.30 p.m. , I used to be wide awake that school was getting over at 3 p.m.

I Miss those days when at 4.30 p.m. , I used to play with my pals and not sip cappuccino and attend some meeting.

I Miss those days when at 5.30 p.m. , Me & my frens would use to pull some naughty tricks over the neighborhood.

I Miss those days when at 6.30 p.m., I used to strive harder to finish the Homework to catch the 7 p.m. Cartoon show.

I Miss those days when at 9.30 p.m. my studies would be over and I was allowed to watch a bit of tv.

I Miss those days when at 11.00 o’clock , I used to go to bed thinking of an exciting Tomorrow unlike now when another Monotonous , packed day keeps waiting.

Those were the days - the fantastic Bygone days.

I Miss My Golden Childhood – I really do !!!

Rise and Shine

Beneath those undying spirit;
Lied to thyself;
Confessed to myself.

The wings fluttering;
The words moaning;
The eyes rippling;
The heart beating;
Everyday;
More and more;
Everyday;

Broken and blurred;
Smeared and spurred;

No;

Shaken - I am not;
Intimidated - I am not;
Refrained - I m not;

The Spirit will never die;
For it’s a battle ,
We fight it out Till we die !!!

Don't Quit - The Best Poem Ever

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

P.S. - It is really sad that we don't know who is the actual author of this tremendously inspiring beautiful poem !

Math-e-Magic

Mathematics or rather a simplified - MATHS !!!

If there is one subject that can keep me glued for hours and yet without an iota of complain – it’s Maths. Be it - Algebra, Co-Ordinate Geometry, Trigonometry or Calculus – I just loveeee Maths. So today – while lingering on a lazy (jobless!!) weekend , just pondered over – why not jot down a few lines about it.

I am in love with the subject ever since my 8th Grade – not that I din’t like the subject before but I realized my LOVE for Maths only in that standard. So much so that I eventually changed my ambition to become a Doctor and rather got tripped to pursue Engineering . All this is - just because Medicine doesn’t require Maths !!!

Maths had always endowed a comfort zone throughout my life. A reason which might have had helped to secure ranks in Regional Maths Olympiad. More so , it was immensely helpful during Engg days , where people slip into the habit of preparing Theory at the last days, after Practicals are over !. And a subject like Maths does really contribute to lessen the pain , amongst the gigantic and tedious – theory question-answers combinations - shoot all over !

This is the only subject which makes you think in a logical frame , get prominent solutions and more importantly helps to think on your feet. The beauty of the subject lies in its inherent interesting pedagogy – that’s Maths for You !!

A Big Thanks to the Maths Behemoths – Newton , Euclid ,Pythagoras , Euler , Gauss and the rest of the Elite Class who brought forth flavors to the subject by adding their own bits and to India as well for discovering the “0” !

Just as Simple ..

Why does it happen that the most Simplified Solution can not cater for credibility in people. Just because it is simple , it gets the obnoxious look on entitling it as the Best option to a critical problem . Then yes , there can’t be something more insane ! Phew !!!

People look for a Complex solution for a Complex problem or at least a solution which apparently seems complex. We forget that giving a Simple solution is the most difficult task. A Simplified solution conceals the complexity or the monotony or the mammoth effort which had gone behind the back while creating it. And there lies the unique beauty of it.

More than half of the world is still oblivious to this fact or probably they pretend to be. It’s high time we come out of the psychological cocoon and view the broad spectrum at this juncture point when we desperately need to - Think Simple , Think Rational & Be innovative – but all in a Simple , dignified way.

Comeon’ folks take a break – U need to change the way u think !

P.S. – This realization comes out of Author’s Personal experience in his Professional life.

They are Human too..

We have this Unique notion in our society which differentiates people in two streams - Artisic & Non-Artistic. Especially people who happen to be into the technical field ( read Engineers here !) are tagged to be frivolous and devoid in the matter of artistic or literature genre.

If You think – They are an altogether different species. And that they are not Human , or they don’t have a Pumping Heart or they don’t possess Blood in their veins , then Yes my friend -YOU are absolutely Right.

No qualms about it !!!!!!!

It's Something !!!

It is 3 A.M. in the morning
And my sleep ditched my eyes,
I feel like the kite
Waving uneven as it flies.

It is 3 A.M in the morning
But I am wide awake on a drool,
Pondering if the uneven
Still gets my even around to fool.

It is 3 A.M. in the morning
And clueless – I am,
Why is it so complex
When life’s just a mirage in hall of fame

It is 3 A.M. in the morning
But the answers now I need,
While the world is fast asleep
My hunt starts again indeed…..

I Found My Self ...

I left my soul
Earned my meal,
I gave my time
But I lost my zeal.

And it says
I am not what I used to be,
Where I am headed to
I am not gonna be spared free.

I liked the Words
Then I looked at them,
I read their silence
And it all seemed just a maze of frame.

Time changed me
But I got ME back,
I lost my Conscience
But now it’s on Track.

My sojourn got my presence
And it’s not in vain,
I started loving myself
All over again…

Silence of the Silent....

बजे प्यार की शबनम मेरे गुलिस्तान में
बरसते रहते हैं हर सिम्त मौत के साये
सियाहियों से उलझ पड़ती हैं मेरी आँखें
कोई नहीं .. कोई भी नहीं जो बतलाये
कितनी देर उजालों की राह देखे
कोई नहीं ..है कोई भी नहीं
न पास न दूर
एक यार हैं
दिल की धरकन
अपनी चाहत का जो एलान किये जाती है
ज़िन्दगी है जो जिए जाती है
खून कै घूँट पियैँ जाती है
ख्वाब आँखों से सिये जाती है..........

Bus Day

It was 7th of April and I was as usual on my way to catch my morning 8o'clock bus to the office. But alongside I had noticed there are more people rushing for buses than on a normal day. And suddenly it did strike - yeah today is Bus Day !!. I smiled - at least for one day we have behaved pretty sensibly & responsibly.

Bus Day - One of the best initiatives taken by people , celebrated on a day of the first week of every month.

It promotes usage of Public Transport instead of our own vehicles- which is quite an encouraging step towards pollution & traffic reduction. As we all are aptly aware of , these two are one of the major problems in the already over-crowded cities like Bangalore. And initiating a concept of

transport that can be used by large chunk of people is going to be tremendously fruitful.

Besides the usage of petrol or diesel gets reduced as a result of such concepts. There are other modes like Car Pooling which is also quite a fresh and nice concept.

Such ideas are something that we badly need today and more importantly it is the implementation of the same which is more crucial towards greater results.

The response of the people has been quite positive on these ideas as everyone in today's age are very much conscious of the dearth or reduction of natural resources.

And we have pretty much to gain from the same - We save money , save energy and importantly promote greener earth !!

So let's Honk less and make Bus Day - an Everyday affair not just a Monthly one !!!

The Bachelor’s Weekend

Well Well Well ! I would categorize the Bachelor Species largely into two categories – Bachelors with girlfriends and Bachelors Without girlfriends. Now both have their own Weekend Lifestyle. We would just peep into in a Bird's eye view prospective -

Category one – Bachelors with Girlfriend –

Early morning !
The girl calls up the guy at 9 o’clock in the morning. The boy , like Most of the boys in the world , are fast asleep. After all it’s just 9 o’clock in the morning. For God’s sake , is it the time to wake up ? Hell – No !!
“ Arre yaar subah subah phone !!!). The guy picks up the phone after 2 longgggg rings Girlfriend wants to go shopping ; the boy doesn’t ! What the heck- after much NEGOTIATION , he had to agree – “Ok Baby , Mein tumhe shaam ko 5 baje pick up karta hoon – tum tyaar rehna”

Afternoon – Gets a shave , nice bath and thinking all the while - " Aaj phirse ek do hazar ka phatka lagnewala hain !!"

Evening – The guy takes his bike , picks up his girlfriend , zooms to Shopper’s Stop. Hours of shopping . And finally both goes for dinner. Then he drops her at her place and he moves to his.
Watches a bit of tv and thinks – “kya boring programmes aa rahen hain ?” In the meantime , she calls him again – “So gaye kya ?tum mujhe bilkuul bhi yaad nahin karte ho ?” . The boy – “Arre baba , pura shaam to tumhare saath hi tha !”

The talk goes on for 2 hours. And finally the girl says Good Night. The Boy replies – “Ok baby Good Night , sweet dream !!”

And with this Our Bachelor too goes to sleep!!

Category two – Bachelors without Girlfriend

Morning –
Wakes up at 11.30 in the morning - not a much preferrable breakfast time – so he goes for a Brunch – Breakfast + Lunch – an ideal and very common package for most bachelors.

Afternoon –
Watches tv and sleeps.

Evening –
Goes out with the guy friends to the nearest mall – a bit of shopping and mostly Bird-watching.
“Arre yaar usko dekh , kya mast hain yaar ? kaash meri bhi aisi hi koi girlfriend hoti ???”
Hours of checking out the opposite (fairer) sex and finally it’s time to go back. All head back for dinner and finally return to their places.

Switches on the tv , mumbles on the chicks – they saw in the mall , and finally goes to sleep.

And this brings an end to the Weekend for this category of people !!!

P.S. – The categories and the respective life-styles are very highly generic – there would definitely be variations to that !! This post does not target to harm the sentiments of any of the male or female homosapiens.

All said and done – The Author wants to keep himself aloof from answering - which category he falls into !!!
