State Of My Mind

Today I received an email regarding my photo blog. Here is an extract of it:
"""
Hi, ********* Recently i went through your website and caught the recent pics you have put up. They are nice,your work is pretty good but what remains unchanged is that most of them depicts loneliness,lost in the world, too much of evaluation in mind, deep thoughts etc.. In a way it's nice to be in that world to look for yourself within but Atlast, it gives a negative vibe. Why don't you put some pictures of happy faces,celebrations,togetherness,full of life kind of pictures!!

I'm sure even that would enhance your collection in your website.
"""
hmm after reading it couple of times, I looked at most of my pics they actually gives some kinda negative vibe, may be it reflect my state of mind.
Well recently I read that "10% of Life is made up of what happens to you but 90% is of life is decided by how you react", and I am going to work on it. I try to put more happy, full of life colorful pics. Thanks for the e-mail, I appreciate it.

This Seems To Be The End

This seems to be the end,
end of a light that will soon be darkness,
end of a time that I thought is boundless,
end of a voice, that will haunt me for lifetime,
end of a friendship, that will break all new bonds,
end of some good memories, I do not want to feel again,
end of a dream that will soon become a nightmare,
This seems to be the end....

IPL 2009: Which Side Are You On?

The biggest show of fast pace twenty twenty cricket Indian Premier League or IPL is back, with a little change. Indian Premier League will take place in South Africa this time. You would ask why??? well the same old Indian story, Indian politics.
The Indian Premier League will kick-off on April 18th with the final to be played on May 24th 2009. 8 teams will fight for the tittle which is more prestigious and rewarding than Twenty-20 world cup.Click here to see detailed schedule of the series. Although matches are in South Africa but they are scheduled between 4 pm to 11 pm IST.
There will be 8 teams and only one winner and my favorite, like last time, is Kolkata Knight Riders.

Kolkata Knight Riders are my favorite because of, Saurav Ganguly, Shahrukh Khan, Ishant Sharma, Ricky Pointing, Brendon McCullum. I think its the strongest team in IPL.

I am cheering for KKR, Kolkata Knight Riders. You decide which side are you on. Watch this space for more updates about IPL, KKR, Saurav and Shahrukh.

India Election 2009: Are you bothered???

World's biggest, largest Democracy is going for 15th general election. India will choose its new Government on May 16th. We have hundreds of campaign to motivate people to vote, if we go by facts only 35% of urban population participated in last election. Well to think of, its fair enough percentage. I have an off on the day of election I will sit at home probably watch some movie. Only a mad would be bothered to go out in crazy summer to vote.
I don't really care who wins, it doesn't bother me because I am not from Hyderabad and I don't stay anymore at my native place. It doesn't bother me because I work for an American company and I am least bother about this country and people. It doesn't bother me what policy we could choose to make this country a better place. It doesn't bother me because I think nothing can be done about this country.
It doesn't bother me if they beat up girls just because they are girls! and are not allowed to attend any party as it’s not our culture. It doesn't bother me if bunch of morons decide what is India's culture what we should do. It doesn't bother me if they kill or BURN hundreds of people alive because they follow a specific religion. It doesn't bother me because I anyways don't go out on weekend as they might beat me, or kill me because I am not from this state.
It’s very easy to say 'I am not bothered'. Sometime its just’breaking news' on a news channel until it happens to you, until you face it. Do you really want to wait till you become part of the news? Or just walk few steps and caste your vote.
I have not written this post to support one party or a group, I have written this post because I hate those people who are dividing the country by religion. I hate those bunch of uneducated people who decide what Indian culture is and what’s not.
Since class 6th I have been proud of India being the largest democracy in the world and being a secular country not a Hindu or Muslim country.
Let’s make sure we take that additional step and caste our vote, because every vote counts.


I found this video very interesting.

Earth Hour

Need I say more??? Its just a matter of one hour. Lets switch lights off on 28th March for one hour, from 8:30pm to 9:30pm.

The Day That Was

Its March the 14th today, 3 years back it was the most relaxed day of my life but today its the same but a little different. I seem to be occupied by a variety of thoughts, bunch of regrets and the same old feeling to go back in the past and change few things, but fortunately Time travels only in one direction.
Few days back I tried to break the routine, and thought of doing something different but its kinda funny that when you live a routine life, you try hard and always think about doing something different and when you start doing things differently, you try hard to go back to routine. I too came back.


Anyways, what I am excited about is my PhotoBlog, I have got a reason to move from my place and click few pictures now :). Apart from that I have plans to campaign for a political party for Election in India this year, in fact I should say 'to campaign against a political party', I have set up a website for the same. I would publish it soon.
Time to grab a coffee, you have a thoughtful day.

The Same Old Feeling

Life has been fast as ever, I blinked for a second and missed a part of it.
Today I got the same old feeling, feeling of running away from everything I have, feeling of going back in the past and change everything, feeling that eats you from inside makes you feel powerless.
