Love: Is it so?

Friday December 13, time was some where around 3 p.m. was driving my way back to home and stopped near a traffic signal. An auto made its way through the stacked buses and heavy vehicles and stopped beside me. I noticed two ladies sitting in the auto with a kid of probably year or may be a half more, aged “wheat”ish kinda complexioned girl. A two wheeler rushed past me whistling air into my face, damn I hated it. The vehicle stopped at a distance of 9-10 feet from me. The small girl enjoyed the rush of the vehicle in the atmosphere and started patting on the lap of one of the lady, probably her grandmother. The two ladies noticed the vehicle much as all the people around did. The older one of them said noticing that a girl and a boy were sitting on the bike stuck to each other occupying only half the seat of the vehicle, “This generation of kids! God hail ‘em.They don’t know where to stop. Once they feel something they just go on doing it without the fear of society. They think they can do whatever they like and rule life, stupid brain-ies. Only realize when its too late to withdraw and impossible to proceed. Limitless expressiveness and extreme reactions. That’s the way they are and they let down us, the older generation with their stupid actions.For all stupidities they do put a cover on them labelled love.” I went wandering around each and every word I heard and could only manage to understand that the elderly lady has an impression that with the rate of increasing modernity in our lives has caused something as pure as love to lose its meaning and worth. May be she was right, modern day love has been limited to affairs, its become more of an attire everyone is trying to fit into just to make sure they are into something. Its has been all limited to physical thing between people in the society today. Love today is being defined a label to put onto something that two people share physically. Really? Is that it? Is it limited to physical touches? Of course yes will be somebody’s answer and absolutely no will be someone’s. Quiet a difficult set of question to answer. The thing is we people of today are more concerned about our social lives on social networks then our real life in real time. We are too much confused to judge the feeling of lust and zeal as temporary and often mistake them as love and commit a relationship, and there we think we do have a license to go on and when the zeal is all settled in we just think of moving over. and name this move on step a sophisticated term “Break-Up”. Simple isn’t it? Think twice. If it were that simple would you suppose love would have been so pure & popular among all ages of people? nah I think its just the time when we figure out who we truly love and act accordingly. It is much more then words can express. It is said to be magic and I don’t find any reason to contradict the fact from the huge volumes of love stories we have seen since we were born. Think and figure it out!

Life@education

It was the summer of 2007, i was in my native when the results came out for my class X and i passed with an above average percentage of 74.2 (371 on 500). I was very firmly stuck up to take up commerce stream and do Charted Accountancy and had dream of settling down in the rat race within no time. Never really had the idea that life and choices weren't that easy to make as they seem and came to know that a life isn't about choices you wanna make but its about the options life leaves you to choose from. Everyone back at my village asked me out what would I do after Xth and I used to see them like "Y the hell you seem to be so interested in my future more than myself??" later on realized they all were victims of curiosity that I always chose different till then and were eager to know what coming next to surprise them? Commerce I yelled one final morning and declared my plans of doing CA. Yeah son that's quiet a surprise you planned for me said my dad. Though my min...

Happy 2nd first Day at HCL ;)

When I first came to know that I was doing to step into the boot of an employee very soon, I was preparing myself for a life completely different to what I was living. A new beginning from the end of student life, a life with financial freedom (although Dad never said “No” to my demands, but own earning is a different level of financial freedom) added responsibility of being an employee of an MNC. I was very certain of being relocated from Hyderabad. Had my bags up and ready for a journey to a new place with a new life style waiting to be discovered. As expected was called to Bangalore (now Bengaluru) and I set out planning a life in the traffic and all the rush of high class social and corporate living beings of IT Capital of India. Day 1: went on with never ending sequence of signatures. Day 2: a boring yet energetic half day.   Day 3: very excitedly I reached office and was having a nice time cracking jokes and making friends. As if somebody cursed the largest laughter in t...

Killing a Conversation

Modern day technology has so much to offer for people who want to stay connected. Not bound by time limit not by accessibility. Internet has brought upon a boom into the communication between people. Its pretty easy today to stay on communication with friends, family your near and dear ones. All this could only infer that there will be endless conversations for minutes, hours and much more. We all today do have such experience at least once when we are involved into long conversations and we enjoy having it without noticing time and duration of the chat conversation. The clock keeps ticking and so does the chat messages. We have been into these chats and texts so much today that we just keep on doing it all the time. So, the time you get to have a conversation has increased drastically but this does not increase the content we share. Gone are the days when you used to have quick conversations just to share what we meant to share. Today, its all whooshed out of the window, today conver...
