JUST MOVING ON-70


Failures are never glorified.This is the way of the world.The theroy of natural selection too seems to confirm that.Of course the most successful have the most chances to survive,others have to make way,however horrible it may sound.For me,failure was never going to be an option so when I failed to clear my entrance exam this month,I was in a state of despair.No hope seemed to be there,all the effort seemed useless and I was caught by surprise,quite literally.As time passed,and a few weeks later,that is today,I think it has left a deep scar on me and I have lost considerable amount of self confidence in the way.
My past has never been a memorable one.There have been instances when I cursed myself for being alive here,but I had and still have the hope to succeed.For the past few months,I have been reading a lot of religious stuff and it has provided me a framework to deal with the problems in my life,yet there are a few where I just want to give up.A considerable amount of self doubt settles in and I'm left hopeless.People often regard it as a state of depression.I get depressed sometimes and lose control of myself in the process and often end up thinking on weird ideas.One of them doing the rounds of my mind is that I should leave this life and run away.The 'escapist' way,it often seems to be adventurous one.
Ever since my childhood,I have been imagining running in to the wild,and living like a hermit seemed to be a nice idea.I have never aspired to be connected to the world or be involved in the worldly affairs and often feel like living among people is the price being paid for my survival.As soon as my survival in ensured sans the people,I'll have no problems living alone secluded from everyone.As I have grown up,this idea still exists in my mind which means it was not some childish fantasy.I think my life is better living alone than not.I am very bad at expressing myself,and with a foul mouth,I make sure everyone I come across hates me.Controlling my tongue has been the hardest thing,and honestly,I have never been able to succeed.I have often thought of the reasons behind it.
Why I go from a soft speaking common man to somone using harsh words against his own family?
How come I repent that event minutes later,yet unable to control my tongue when required?
Does someone annoy me?If yes why do I care?
I don't think I should be more concerned about correcting others than I should be about finding faults within myself.Afterall,I have to be responsible for my actions,not others'!Thought over with a calm mind I often realize my mistake,but the feedback loop is so poor that I am not able to apologize.So the person sees the bad side of me and when I try to present my good side,it just doesn't get across.I then end of looking like a real villain in the story.It has been accumulating for a long time now,and now sometimes things get unbearable.Then I realize there is a lot of suffering in the world and I have to take it as long as I'm alive.Then,I don't have to worry about perceptions too as they are temporary.
There are not any problems,fundamental in nature as far as I'm concerned so I don't have to worry about it.I have to take a lot of suffering,on account of my actions and hence I consider myself responsible for the state I'm in today.Yes there is some amount of depression but since I hold myself responsible I don't have to curse anyone for it.I have the responsibility to rectify the mistakes as well as to succeed.This is the firm belief I have,and it is the path I have to take.
NOTE:
*There is a lot of negativity right now,and I have to make sure I don't make any wrong decision during this time.
*Opinion of people doesn't matter in the long run,so I don't even have to think about 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...
