The highway!

Common sense says that if you find a bunch of vehicles at one particular stretch of the highway, the stretch following it will have clear road and vice versa. In my previous post I had mentioned that how things never change! It is a matter of perception. Plain and Simple. Change is seen only in […]

What do we stand for?

So 2 trips to Mangalore in a month. Visited the college both times. No nostalgia, nothing has changed. But deja-vu nonetheless. Back then it was the same issue of not being able to say what you wanted to say. Misinterpreted or whatever we can call it. And the ever pertinent question- what do we really […]

A Comedian!

Its viral, inappropriate comedy. It catches up with time. Observations, explanations and debate to arrive at a some 2 lines. Then you say it and its out in the open. The line is erased between the joke and yourself. Are people laughing at the joke or you. After awhile it stops bothering you. The one-liners won’t […]

Work

The Rockefellar Tower posed an interesting dilemna for him. What waited for him would be a private room, a secretary and all the glamor which came with the role. He told his potential boss that he would think about the offer and even called it an enticing future. The boss of the future was aghast […]

Arbitrary!

People have generally complained that my posts are downright melancholic. Defensively I have pushed those opinions aside, saying ‘you guys shall never get me’. Was there a problem of a melancholic shell which made the world a sadder place. Can say that in a way. It was almost like a frog in a well, or […]

Why Taare Zameen Par is not a good movie?

People said they cried at this movie. Really? Unhappy childhoods, now that is a problem. Lets see that small fellow’s problem Academics- not so good Sports- again sub-average Parents with high expectations Teachers who do not get him and his problems A brother who is so damn good Classmates who are not nice Bad handwriting […]

The popular shows

These shows that come on the tube make me unconfortable.  Almost wildly nervous. It is not the story, the content is rock bottom anyway; that does not mean I love reading Nietzsche, all the time. Those reality shows where kids compete, and good looking women cry because they lost! And those judges and hosts, add […]

So long!?!

He could not feel the pain, immunized mostly, he continued to ignore. In retrospect he thought, ‘ wow, was I foolish or what?’.  He remembered cursing his peers, his friends, his family and the others. Now he felt nothing, no love, no hatred, nothing. He had felt a little odd when this had begun, but […]

India- The way forward?

All CEO’s of this era write a book on how they envision India. Since I am not at all big in comparison to those heavy weights I decided to blog about it. We are a democratic country. Or are we? Equality in terms of what? Economically no. Socially in a lot of ways no. Freedom […]

6 manifestations

Let me first define what I am trying to do. One maybe to redefine and the other might be to use examples to understand by exploration of this abused and complicated emotion called love. Whereas the other emotions are momentary this emotion can be quite a handful. Parents: They really don’t have an option, do […]
