JUST MOVING ON-35


I face a lot of flack over my view on various issues.I enjoy it,afterall being different is a luxury!We all seek it and here I am getting it all for free.All right getting more serious now,and honestly sometimes I do get bogged down by it and some voice hidden deep within asks what if i'm wrong.What if my perspective is one dominated by paranoia or delusion,for that instance?I often don't take advices and hence there is seldom a case of someone having an influence on me at least visually!But what is there in life which is so complicated and about which people often accuse me of taking too lightly?I don't understand.
All right,life is not a bed of roses and we have to face a lot of difficulties but this is no excuse for crying over the mistakes done in the past!
Same is the case with people on the other side,the so called optimists.They'd often advise us to be cheerful,laugh out loud and stuff like that.Things are good for few days just before you understand the absurdity of it. I mean to say whether happiness or sadness,both are mental states and pass away almost effortlessly.We need not be fussing over it.But,we often trick ourselves into living between the extremes.Driven by emotions,any sad moment drives us to one extreme and life looks catastrophic while soon the too prized, happier moment drives us to the other extreme and suddenly life feels like being in the heaven.There is no-thing as the middle thing!In fact the concepts of heaven and hell itself have been derived by our habit of living in between the extremes.
No wonder we see emotional outbursts so common everywhere!People have not been taught how to handle emotions.I find a lot of people,much older that me making a mess of their lives just on the part of emotional mismanagement.Here we are living in such a state with so much of developmental talk all around and on the other hand we find such maniacs all around.Don't look around,a look in the mirror is enough!We have developed so much but when it comes to emotions we are nothing more than the kids.
Just being jubilant by getting a gift and the next moment crying because someone took away the little toy!We expect more from a mature individual,don't we?
Life teaches a lot of lessons and one of them is the realisation of hardship but if there is hardship,there is joy as well.All around us just a little glance is enough to make us understand the dualities existing here.If there is pain,there is pleasure,if there is light,there is darkness as well.......Now my point is what if instead of living between these dualities and getting entangled in the mess,we make it a goal to first understand then conceptualize and finally move over these differences in order to live an unperturbed life away from all this mess!Why not? I mean life is way too precious to waste crying in grief on one hand or partying all over on the other.l
We as humans have always faced problems and devised innovative ways to solve them and if we have, in the current day scenario,a problem which is caused by human behaviour and has the potential to take lives and destroy families,it will be solved by ourselves.So managing emotions is the key.....I was fed up with all this,living between the extremes I was never comfortable with myself until I found out a way to lead me out of this mess.
Now I live a life in which there are no huge expectations.I don't run after anything as of now.Just take whatever comes and focus my energy instead on the understanding of the world.Happiness or sadness whatever the state of mind,i don't get disturbed beyond my limit of self control and I am essentially pursuing a certain calmness in life.Of course it is hard to explain but can be best explained as the harmony between myself and others by realising the limits of discrimination,or I should say the harm of it.When there is nothing to fuss about,there is calmness isn't it?

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...

STARTING NEW LIFE AT BHU..

BHU gate Lanka Finally after a hectic 10 day period in which I moved from Delhi to Varanasi twice and ran here and there continuously throughout,I am finally at peace.Getting admitted to BHU was like a dream come true for me.I have aspired to be a part of this prestigious institution ever since my childhood and the satisfaction I feel these days is hard to express by words. The results were out in the first week of July and ever since then,I have been restless.I clearly remember how I spent two entire weeks,losing my sleep and being restless throughout.The restlessness is taking a toll on my body and I feel a little tired but as almost everything is settled now,there is no issue as such with regard to tiredness.Moreover,the excitement of living in a place like Varanasi is too much to overcome.It always had a very special part in my heart and now as I have got the full two years to live here,it is satisfying indeed! Leaving the family  is never a happy affair and it is sadde...

THIS BLOG...LET'S SEE HOW WE PROGRESS!

On this blog page,broadly speaking there are articles representing my state of mind at that very moment. Naturally,some of these are positive,indicating I was in a happy state of mind at that moment while some of them are negative indicating otherwise. I was thinking why I put so much of my inner workings of the mind on a place like blogger! Well,I don't think this is meant for a lot of public audience. I don't seek any readers,although someone very close to me can read them with no hesitation what so ever. As far as I'm concerned,I think it will serve as a reminder,when in later years I read back these articles and then laugh about the way I used to think!Writing as a hobby is very interesting one as well as it opens the doors to many possibilities isn't it?While,I might not be writing anything significant,but I'm writing some stuff nevertheless,and it is definitely going to help me in the long run. I love reading books of different genre,and will start writ...
