Excess Baggage

Dropping speed from 40 to 0 in like 1 second,the disc pads catch the front disc stopping my bike immediately ,just before the stop line for a red light.Just then I could see a silver image from the corner of my eye,a silver Honda City.The Driver was a girl in her 20's are something.This would have been a normal occasion,but after she stopped the car,she went on to apply make up using the rear view mirror on a busy signal,but the sign was red though.

Whizzz.... Signal goes green and the car zips past me.Well I was tooo deep in thoughts to accelerate fast enough.I am not trying to judge anyone here,but aren't we becoming 2222 superficial nowadays.Guys with gadgets and girls with never ending fashion tricks and makeup.

Priorities seem to be changing for all us,including me.Hope this fast paced techno babble does not burst on our faces with time....

Nostalgic....

Myself and my fnd's were chatting about our brief stint in Bangalore.We Joined a Software MNC as Freshers and truth be told staying away from home for the first time.It was an experience that is deeply imbibed in my mind.Happiness and Sorrow mixed with friendship that lasted even perfect storms.Being a bachelor,I lived like one.Even my fnds,once in a while visited my house were taken aback with the housekeeping.Pretty Bad... :)

But all I can remember now,is not the pain of staying alone but the thoughts of having fun with my friends,working late in office ,chatting with some of the beautiful girls.I would say,I was the king,Queen and the Jester of my Court.

My rustic looks with a reserved attitude,a perfect clone of a loner with a mind that can concoct a deadly vision.People ask me as to "why I am the way I am ?".I don't have an answer to that,but I can't be myself,If I am not that.

My most blissful moment would be to "Give all that I have and hold nothing back ,to snatch victory".Imagine "Skidding on the asphalt at speeds exceeding 75KM/h".I have been through an nerve cracking accident lost my life amost,saved by my helmet.I knew at that moment ,I was to make a difference,may be not to the entire world,but to some one or more than one.

And that is exactly what I am going to do.Be the man that I am supposed to be and live life the way it should be.Rarely does one get a second chance,If you get it USE IT!!

Enough rambling..."Happy Living!!"
