JUST MOVING ON-25


It's been a week since the start of a new and obviously my last semester in this
college.Each day,as it passes I feel like inching closer to finally finishing my bachelor's degree here.Although,I've been observing myself all over but still I feel like lacking a control which I had developed some time ago.I don't know whether it is idealising expression but still I feel like my behaviour has not been upto the mark.I have had problems with concentration and as usual I feel a strange nothingness in my life almost everytime.It sometimes is helpful for me as I don't have to worry about usual day to day issues.The things made for enjoyment,don't entertain me although it may just be the mediocre stuff which I can't appreciate even in my dreams.I expect a lot both from myself as well as others and hence falter over and over a lot of times.
Nothing is permanent and I wonder if nobody has ownership of anything what is this hue and cry all about.Honestly,I don't like being among men anymore and wonder if I can live in seclusion all the way.Nothing is fascinating for me at the moment and if it goes like this what could be my position say 10 years from now?Spare a thought for my 'career' I'm supposed to build over these years.I've been a regular student but for what,I too have picked up some bits and pieces of unearthed information available which they call knowledge but for what?I mean there does not seem any meaning to it.I've been focussing on nothingness,and here it manifests in my mind almost killing all the passions inside me.It has literally killed all the desires I had over some time.I don't want to have anything,I don't want to become anything and the destination well we all know it.Then if we think it that way,there doesn't seem any purpose for cluttering this life with unnecessary stuff.I've been living an easy life with no purpose till date,going with the flow and doing whatever my mind felt could yield some happy moments as a result.Even unknowingly I've been in pursuit of the thing which everyone wants,my path being totally different and strange.But there are a lot of positives,I still have a relatively less occupied mind and hence I'm free to make decisions,I'm not run by desires or passion or expectations at all.This way I can enjoy the things which not everyone can and of course is boosting my information base. But then what controls me.Again the answer is the same nothing.Although one of the desires is still strong and I hope it does not fade away.It is my born desire to travel and explore new places.I hope in the near future I fulfil it.
So then if I feel like there is no meaning left for me,there is no one to support me,there doesn't seem any purpose,it can be counted as one of my usual days.I hope some very exciting day are round the corner and instead of sulking and getting kind of worried by my seclusion,I'm doing something productive and meaningful in life and at the same time remaining mindful of my body,mind as well as my behaviour.

NAGALAND: FIRST IMPRESSIONS

Not too many people have Nagaland in their bucket list. Uncomfortable roads, poor transport system and a lot of corruption are a few factors which contribute to it. Added to it the stories of still active insurgency, Nagaland although an extremely beautiful hill state doesn’t manage to have a lot of tourism going on except for the Hornbill festival in December every year. But, my case is slightly different. Affinity towards the culture of the entire North east, plus a desire to visit not to tourist frequented places made Nagaland a definite must go. So, when I got time and saved some money, I immediately planned a trip to the beautiful hilly state with my girlfriend. The Nagaland express Since, th is was my second trip towards the hills of the North east, I was more confident and familiar with the sytem than the previous time. We booked a filght to Guwahati and from there we took a train to Dimapur aptly named : The ”Nagaland Express”. This

FIRST TRIP TO THE NORTH EAST-MIZORAM

Around 7 years ago during the final year of my school, I read a book about the various tribes of the north East India. Already fascinated by a place so serene, yet unexplored and heard stories of the people inhabiting those lands, the book generated in me a desire to visit the places as soon as possible. The author of that book visited the entire North East as a part of his assignment for All India Radio (AIR) during the 1970s and the way he described those tribes and the places, a strong desire arose inside of me to visit these places and see for myself how beautiful that land is, how well mannered those people are! It is aptly called the 'unexplored paradise' as I discovered. But the idea materialized only in March, when financially empowered by a scholarship from ISRO, and constantly motivated by my best friend (who could not resist travel, and hence accompanied me!), I planned to visit Mizoram. Why Mizoram? There is a particular thing about the mizos, and if asked com

TRIP TO HARIDWAR AND RISHIKESH

A trip to places like Haridwar and Rishikesh is always a source of peace,joy and spirituality and when we went to these places this month, it was no different.We had some free time and I along with my two other friends decided to visit Haridwar as well as Rishikesh for a short 4 day trip.As I had spent my childhood in a nearby town,naturally these places were well travelled by me . Day-1:Bus to Haridwar We got up early in the morning,at around 0445,hurriedly got dressed up,called each other and ran off to the ISBT at kashmiri gate to catch an early bus to Haridwar.I was extremely careful to catch the bus as early as possible because of the traffic at the border growing up a few hours later.We expected to catch the bus at around 0700,but as it always happens,we were delayed by around 30 minutes and managed to board the bus as 0730.It was a smooth journey,early in the morning a lot of fresh air poured in,later as it was not too hot,we enjoyed riding the bus in the bri
