How many times have you pondered over the fact that life is not going the way as you have had expected it to. From my experience and from my pals, I am sure that one faces such a phase in life quite often -When you feel like nothing’s working and nothing’s there to hope for. The reason for this can be very silly. We may have had a bad day at work, some friend of ours not talking for some reason, not able to make for a much awaited trip or get-together, money crunch, loss in a business deal, dip in share market, bad health, love failure, delay in marriage and so on. There are basically two kinds of problems - One where you can get through the problem if you put a little extra effort, and the other which looks like a deadlock where your hands will be tied. The latter one is more serious and is capable of driving your mind and body to crazy conduct.
All nasty thoughts reign in one’s mind for long if you let it to be there. So how can you check that? The easiest approach will be to keep oneself busy. Do all the things that you wish to. If reading is your passion, there are scores of amazing works in the market. Sports, music, dance etc are other options. It’s very important that the method you choose should involve you actively else it can adversely affect you i.e. listening to music is not a good option since that’s just a passive way of engaging yourself and in some cases can even aggravate the situation. It’s very well said that an idle mind is a devils workshop. Just look out and make your time worthy by doing things which you like to do.
Alas, there is no point worrying about things when you can do nothing to correct it!

I hate writing...
For the past few moments i was wondering how I started off with this writing thing?? Do I love it?? Is this my hobby?? naaah - I prefer taking a nap over testing my psyche.
These days …yeah..blogging/writing is serving as a means of entertainment to me. But the bitter truth is I HATE WRITING..
I hate writing because it never seems complete, a process that doesn’t stop when you put the pen down.
I hate writing because it occupies my mind, my thoughts, my world whenever I write even a paragraph.
I hate writing for the words that swim in my head, elusive, backing away, vague.
I hate writing because every word, every sentence, every paragraph has me obsessed.
I hate writing because I know that nothing matches it. I hate writing because I hate this feeling, this “knowing”.
I hate writing for the unfinished thoughts, the broken sentences, and the words that never seem quite perfect when I create them.
I hate writing for the mood swings it inevitably brings with it - the excitement, the disgust, the despair, the apprehension, the conflict.
I hate writing for the dark, vast ocean of things you can do with it, and for the choice you must make to choose a single way.
I hate writing for the power it single-handedly wields over the mind.
I simply hate em'.
P.S:
Written in a rare dark mood. I think I’m getting old!!! :-)

Obama -The Superhero
I was reading todays news paper and this news in particular caught my attention. The news is that American President Barack Obama will be featured in a comic strip and will become the super hero “destined to save the great republic of America and dethrone the overpaid despots of the time”.
The comic is(mercilessly) titled ‘The Righteous Retribution of Barack the Barbarian’.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/barackobama/5120374/Barack-Obama-and-Sarah-Palin-appear-in-comic-series.html
The moment I saw that, I started wondering where the world was heading. I mean, having your favorite politician as an idol is one thing, but making him a cartoon character and having him battle against the likes of Sarah Palin and ‘who-knows-who’ is totally out of my understanding boundaries. What if we had something like that made in our country? Hmm… It’s kinda of funny to think of how ‘Super Sonia’ would battle it out against the ‘evil adversary Advani’ to save the world from extinction. Or if ‘Karuna’ would have a chance to beat ‘Dr.J’ in a life threatening dual. (the examples used are purly based on pun and has no connection to any of my political views). With the upcoming elections that would definitely be a blast huh!!!
