Goa-a retrial

It was me at my sour best. I had all the revulsion for myself. I had the poison in me at it's poisonous best. Taj Aguada had it's moments. Every moment spent there reminded me of something that was not there. It made me unhappy. It made me pathetic. Yet, right now I feel fine. I can say with courage that I am sad, that I miss her, that I need her, that the more she is away the more she makes me feel want her.
Then this cousin of mine, blamed me all the way for not committing to her. She said that "she" was not at fault at having gotten married. That was well not that palatable to me.
Goa was nice. Yes it was. Times had me sulking, but I lazed in the dark in the waters. It was no doubt making me a bit afraid. But who is afraid of dark and depths? At least these days.
I came back and read something. It made me feel better. I am going to achieve a lot... I had put a lot of things on the backburner for things that had to be achieved.
It's gonna be literature full time. I am going to come on hard at myself. I am going to be real hard on me.
I should be. I have to be my master. I smiled a lot today. I made lot of good conversation with "normal" people. They were pretty amazed. After a year here, I heard compliments "you are pretty warm".. "we always thought you were distant".. hehe.. welll was not that true. I am changing. I just need to see her once. Well isn't that asking a lot.
I don't know and I don't care. I am not at all afraid of anything. I am going to be cheerful and I am going to laugh out loud. I am going to make it worth it.
Anywayz.. One more thing that's bothering me. Puchee is moving out... He is going home. Finally...

Can life teach?

It actually began, quite reluctantly. Unnecessary as it may seem, life teaches you what you allow it to teach. Even Life cannot teach you what it offers you. One has to let himself dissolve into the experience and let it sink in, and that I might call religion or education. Whatever the other person is willing to accept. Nay. Does it matter? Nay. Life is about teaching oneself. Being a self-thought-taught "person", picking up bits and pieces from various experiences, I tread on a path; I have myself laid out for myself. Never have I asked, in other words, begged for words, from "messiahs". Never did I think myself of having enough virtue, call it patience, to learn from others. So "rich" were my experiences. Things change, dynamically. Responding to an open question, throwing caution to the winds, I immersed myself into a debate, with people who thought, had streamlined their thinking apparatus and abilities. Gradually, they pestered; read "lee...

Can you hear me?

When the last tree has fallen, When the last drops of water are polluted, When the last bird ceases to sing, Will “they” realize that money cannot be eaten. Reading these somewhat crazy lines, I was joyous, at being finally able to have convinced myself, that this human race has faintest of hopes of living out the new century. I had been troubled for a pretty long time at, what seems to me, a race to extinction. I am an educated, liberal and informed individual. Having been educated at the best of the institutions, I developed a deep admiration for Mother Nature and her so “wily” ways. Listening to my Guru and his talks on “biomimetic” methods, I sensed a deep concern in him. Of late, all he talked of was “Green” Chemistry. I connect to people, people my age and people “not” my age, irrespective of who and what they are, thanks to my rootless upbringing. I used to be appalled at how short sighted “genuinely” gifted men can be. Talks of Dollar salaries, Ivy League scholarsh...

The void...

I feel empty. I feel raw. I feel rotten. I feel like not feeling. I have nothing to show, if someone to ask me about what I have achieved in my stay on this planet. Nothing. what is a few flirtations with literature, knowledge, pain and sweat. No blood. No tears. No medallions. No gallantry. Ah! I am disgusted with myself for being so ordinary. I deserve the void for I do not work half as hard as I could. I am wasting my life.
