Day begins and people starts running frantically. Ican see happy faces, sad faces, angry faces and even people without an expression. Hardly i see fresh faces in the morning. All are busy, they got to go to work, they got tensions at home, the newspaper makes them angry or sad etc. None of us are happy about our life eventhough we are alive and got food to eat and water to drink, but every day we got something to complain about. Life is beautiful is Ironical at times.
Why so Serious??
A quote The Joker said in the movie Dark knight, it is a very relevant question that joker asks. If you relate it to day to day life, the relevance increases. From the very moment we are born, we start living life, we start to adjust and compromise and learn how to deal with things. This thing continues till we die, Other than that the small happiness in life is family, friends and fun we have. This will be hardly One third of our total Living hours. An average human spent's more than half of his life working / trying to earn money. Whatever he earned, he wont be able to spend this on him, he has to spent on his family, relatives, friends, rent, mortgage and what not. Relationship is something which keeps life Cycle balanced, but when compared to a Single human being's life all these becomes burdens to. All of us are burden to each other in one way or other. May be i am wrong, but what i have seen and what i have learned is:
Work hard and earn, get married, have kids, welcome oldage, Dream about things which you haven't achieved and things you have achieved, Diseases (Optional), Wait for the Final call(Call from God), Embrace the earth.
I believe this is the life style of every human being or may be more than 3/4th of the Humans. In the end, when you look back:
what is that you achieved?
What good you have done to others?
What was the purpose of living?
Living being or Living-being is all the same.
On a day to day life, we do planning. Some do short term planning, some prefer planning in long term and some others are very clear about what they want to do and plan for their entire life. Not all these plans gets executed and infact most of them become big Flop. But the planning phase never stops, why are we becoming Schemers? Are we happy after being a Schemer? I don't think so. May be the Almighty has Designed us in a way that we are never 100% happy about anything. This makes us the unique species.
Forget a single human, if we consider a community also there is the same problem. Caste wise, religion wise, region wise, Country wise, politically etc. But what is the outcome of this hatred which we had developed due to the selfishness?
Being the most intelligent and sophisticated species, Humans have achieved no happiness, but some way of making one self believe that "This is happiness". "Life is beautiful " is a quote which is Irony at times, i mean most of the times.
Man vs Nature
Nature is also angry at us, the recent earthquakes and Tsunami warnings are good example. We destroyed nature to build buildings and many other things. Every time we say we achieved something, we never realized what we are loosing. Now earth is in a unstable state. The recent earth quake warnings are a very good example. "The world will come to an END" may or may not be true. But the recent happenings should be a good lesson for people to learn about some love. Whatever so called achievements we have is like an Oasis. We got a life which is undefined, it have only a Singin option and no Sign out option, unlike our Login screens. Once in you are Signed in (born) try to live life happily, find happiness in every small good deeds. Forget about your worries and try to lead a happy life. Instead of becoming a schemer planning big things and dying to earn money to make that plan happen, Live life happily, it may not be a 100% planned way, but definitely there will be happiness. Once you Sign out or your Session expires (die), then you don't have a chance to rethink.
Live life like a Man, Not like a Schemer.

You are Never Alone, Twitter is always Alive
Long time since i have written something. I ain't writting because i am good in Literature, but it makes me feel that you can utilise the free resource. I was not much into social networking other than creating profiles on various sites and adding up known people, an alternate way for being in touch. The one thing which kick started networking for me is Twitter. I respect and love twitter for that fact. When compared to Orkut(which is used by most indian's) and it's sick communities, Twitter i am able to see many sane people. Here also there are Bots and "Can we be Frans"(which i heard from many friends) requests.
On twitter things are more real. Whoever i interact with has replied to me irrespective of who they are. The people whom i interact with daily, or on a regular basis are awesome. The kind of interaction between us and the Trust that develops in a period of time, that i haven't seen elsewhere. This is the positive side.I have spoke to most of my twitter friends, met many of them and the get togethers which is a good way to interact and make the bond strong.
Why Twitter is better than Others?
In other social networking sites, you interact online. you never know who is on the other end, there is nothing other than adding people, joining communities and yeah Stalkers.
Twitter on the other hand, you really interact. you got Twitter meet up's called, tweet Up's. You are interacting with your friend from Virtual world really.
Twitter people use for different purpose like business, pleasure, promoting etc
Twitter has become a strong Source of information for people and media.
Twitter has become a way to get feedbacks when it comes to any enterprises, a "Direct Dilse" way.
Twitter is good for fighting about injustice, you are fighting for a cause, like minded people do support you.
Twitter is a place where you can even set Human Alarms. :)
Twitter you got Freedom to think and write what you thought infront of a Big Audience.
Twitter 140 words is a blessing in disguise, for a quick feedback.
Twitter is live and alive with people around everytime, you tweet something, you get atleast a reply.
Twitter is all about updating yourself and others about yourself, which inturn develops a community of people who are ready to interact.
Whatever i wrote here is what i feel, my thinking and my experience. Now what you think and why i wrote something like this, i really don't know. Please bear with me if this is boring, but as i said Freedom of speech or Freedom to express :)
My definition from my personal experience of using Twitter is "You are never alone, There is a 140 char reply waiting for you"
Tweet retweet and Retweet...

A dawn in the Dark
Time 4:30am Place: Chennai
I am in my office terrace with a cup of coffee. There is no sign of daylight. Infact it is dark. Somewhere i have read "There is a day when darkness will fill the atmosphere & we will die for fresh air" this is what came to my mind after seeing the surroundings. Even the dawn will look ugly. You won't see the Sun's rays, We wont be having clear visibility. Everything will be abstract, everything fades. I am dying for fresh air, not able to breath in this dawn. Where has all the Fresh Air gone? What is it that is causing smoke? Came out of my office surrounding and understood that everywhere it is the same. it is not just in my office compounds, Its everywhere. All over. Everyone is having the strange look on their faces.
Well this is not a joke, not even a scene from the recent movie 2012. This was the scene in chennai today early morning. The reason was SMOG. This is not a natural phenomenon, but something created by Humans. Bhogi Smog, Today people here are celebrating Bhogi and this is the result of their celebrations. Bhogi is celebrated a day before Pongal & people burn all the wastes on this day. Due to the excessive burning, the smoke filled the atmosphere and it was causing the choking effect and low visibility.
Festivals are to celebrate and old traditions are to be followed, but i think it should be in an environment friendly way. The burning of these things to be done in a way that it won't become a nuisance for any one. The Smog today has even caused for delay of Flights because of low visibility. This might have put several travellers into trouble. Why to celebrate hurting environment when we got ways to celebrate in a environment friendly way. Let us hope that this Bhogi / Pongal is the last one celebrated this way & by next time, we will celebrate in a echo friendly way.
India is the land of Colours, Colourful Festivals and rich and varied traditions. But we keep forgetting about our Mother nature & the environment and surroundings. Let us make this place a beautiful place, let us be more environment friendly& Let us celebrate...
My prayers & condolence to all Haiti Victims.
Happy Pongal to all...

The Game of Life
Now a days either am thinking too much or am under some kinda immense pressure which even am not aware of. Was thinking about a new post which is still under construction. for the time being, my crazy mind & my rather freak style is writting which is victimizing this Zone. Yeah! i wrote something now,, Dont know what category it is..Somethings which felt in mind
Life is drifing, away from me
A moment of agony, a moment to think
Drifting down the lane, no control
Where it goes and why it goes?
Questions and negotiations, am loosing myself
Like lost in Some mathematical puzzle
Nothing i can do, nothing i can think
Happiness is all others want, why mine?
Perceptions and imaginations leading to dreams
Those Dreams which are crawling into my head
Eating my free traveling thoughts
Why me? why not Set me free?
Serenity and peace are drifting away from me
Answers is what am struggling to find
Why commitments, why no freedom
Let me live, Set me free
Reality,culture, custom & relationship
Somethings which came without our knowledge
The Gods whom we never worship, still they control us
The rule makers of game who makes me think
What if you loose? What if you win?
What you gets? Why you have to play?
The game of life, playing since birth
Wherever it ends, leaves no answer.

A puzzle or a riddle ridiculous at times
A question without answer
A thinking exercise, a game
An experience, a feeling, a notion that you are alive..Lifee

Hope Runs - An initiative by us, Success depends on your Support
What is what & what we can do?
Days passes by, years passes by and we never changes. What have i earned? Nothing, absolutely nothing other than some paper with some figures in that. If it was all about those paper with figures, i dont need to be civilized. I can earn that in a simples & easier uncivilized way. When i am different from others, what am i doing for others? Am i doing anything good? No, nothing significant.
Thoughts are crawling into my mind like Viruses, I am sinking in the deep Ocean of thought. Past 27years i just lived life according to me, but that ain't true. Think about people who don't have anyone, leave grown up's think about Kids. What about them? Some of them are born Orphans, how they live? What all tortures they face. A major threat for a child is Sexual abuse. Why it happens? No answer, Some may be maniacs, some may find it as a way of entertainment. Some find it as a way to get thrills and satisfaction. Yeah! These ain't thoughts in my mind, these are facts which are related to Child Sex abuse. Eradication of poverty is important, but what about this? This is worse than poverty. A child who faces bad things in his young age can turn out as a disaster or a total failure for the system.
Facts and figures about child abuse
- NSPCC research shows that a significant minority of children suffer serious abuse or neglect:
- 7% of children experienced serious physical abuse at the hands of their parents or carers during childhood.
- 1% of children experienced sexual abuse by a parent or carer and another 3% by another relative during childhood.
- 11% of children experienced sexual abuse by people known but unrelated to them. 5% of children experienced sexual abuse by an adult stranger or someone they had just met'.
- 6% of children experienced serious absence of care at home during childhood.
- 6% of children experienced frequent and severe emotional maltreatment during childhood.1
- 16% of children experienced serious maltreatment by parents, of whom one third experienced more than one type of maltreatment.2
- Latest available figures show that there are 32,700 children on child protection registers in the UK as at 31 March 2003.3
- Nearly 79,000 children are currently looked after by local authorities in the UK.5
- Every week in England and Wales one to two children will die following cruelty.6
- There are on average 80 child homicides recorded in England and Wales each year.7
- Every ten days in England and Wales, on average, one child is killed at the hands of their parent. An average of 35 a year over the past five years.
- The people most likely to die a violent death are babies under 1 year old, who are four times more likely to be killed than the average person in England and Wales.9
- Three-quarters of sexually abused children did not tell anyone about the abuse at the time, and around a third still had not told anyone about their experience(s) by early adulthood.10
- Over a quarter of all rapes recorded by the police are committed against children under 16 years of age.11
- 31% of children experienced bullying during childhood, a further 7% were discriminated against and 14% were made to feel different/an outsider. 43% experienced at least one of these things during childhood.12
That is just some facts which i got on a simple google search. Collecting these ain't great, but what can we do for eradicating this? There are ways to prevent this, but who is there to take initiative? Organisations like this need people ready to help them. Hoperuns is a movement started against the child abuse.As the name states, this is about people who runs marathon for the cause of child sex abuse.Harish Iyer a friend of mine is running for ARPAN in the Mumbai Marathon on 17th January, 2010 to support Arpan's work on preventing child sexual abuse and healing it’s ill effects.
This is the site address: http://www.hope-runs.blogspot.com/
We are not working for collecting money for this marathon, we are trying to make maximum people aware of this sad fact, the animal behaviour shown towards innocent small kids.
Today's world money can be made easily in different ways, whereas human security is very less. Child sex abuse can happen with any child, its not just about Orphans, but anybody can be a victim of that.
Today's kid's are tomorrow's Heroes, we want them strong & brave.
Let us do something good other than just working & earning money.
My humble request to all is to help us in this initiative in whatever you can.
Please check http://www.hope-runs.blogspot.com/ or join thr facegroup with the same name or follow us on twitter.
Your support & donations may help many kids.
Going Back to the Past - A reality
Why on earth is it like this? What on earth is happening here? Why why why, but why me?
Dont worry, things are fine, but these sentences are always there in my mind & i think the same might be happening with everyone else also. The country which is famous for its Rich & Varied heritage, it is going back to its Old state i think. Olden times when Kings wanted a kingdom for their name sake & show their Freaking attitude, It's back. Instead of King's we can see the elected memebers or So called Social Servents or normal term Politicians doing this.
To become a ruler, they ain't creating a Kingdom, but toring apart a State. The trend seen for past 2 days is People want their states torn into pieces depending on the Caste, Creed or a Selfish plan of becoming a ruler. Nobody is thinking about the power, beauty & Strength of becoming a single state. They want things to be divided, Where are you folks? Wake up & do something. If this thing keep on happening, then India will be again into its pre-independence Stage, someone will come & invade India.
My country which was divided in a planned manner is again getting torn into bits & pieces. Not all people wants this, but the upper lot wants. For the privileged upper lot who never pay taxes & lives a luxurious life using the Tax paid by all Hardworking people. What is the value of a common man? Is it that he is supposed to pay taxes to government & buy things at double rate & Vote & sit silent and watch the innovative ways in which common man is getting tortured?
The countries where taxes are levied, they do provide facilites or services. Country like OZ have good roads, proper drinking water, financial help for jobless people, good roads, safety for their own citizens.What about us? What are we getting from the amount paid as tax? Some torn roads, Costly petrol, Increase in cost of commodities & government wasting Crores to protect a Terrorist?
This post is not a post of Frustration, but the feelings of every common man in India. The highly skilles & talented lot of India is preferring to live in other countries not because of money, but because of a satisfactory life, where even a single common man has got his own Rights. We do have human rights, but on papers.
Wake Up people..Dont let the useless people to tear a countr & play their Game of Chess with our lives & money...
