Relationships

In relationships its important to know what exactly you are bringing to the table - for that determines where the relationship goes .

HNY 2011

2 years or so since I started the blog - I have been inconsistent in keeping this up (why are we surprised here , its typical me !! )

Ah ... somethings never change :)

Somehow--

--somehow I have been a little left out in the race of life .. A little left out is a very poor description of what I feel.

Skill sets , social life , investments ( non financial) and a meaning to life..

Somehow I feel like I am visiting a zoo and I sit and get amused with what I see around me..a distant ambivalent and contemplative...

Somehow...

Existence

I have always wondered what my existence has been for ? In the scheme of the universe what is my place ? I somehow dont prescribe to Bhagavad Gita that says do your dharma and the results will follow. There has to be a purpose of doing that right ?

Invictus

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

-William Ernest Henley (1849–1903)

Cross roads

Its once again one of those in numerable times in my life when I feel a vacuum - a desire to have stability in my life - even the gym routine has stopped now with some kind of fatigue overpowering me to sleep late into the morning.

Work is not so interesting now and nothing to do at home once I am back to my room..

Friends have dwindled with all except for few -getting married..

Its a phase I am trying to get through though excruciatingly slow.

Food

Some of the most simple foods in life can be the most awesome to eat- khichdi, sambhar rice, yellow dal and rice, chicken curry,lassi, alu paratha, curds. maggi noodles, pasta, omelletes ...:)
