Of imaginary blossoms and amateur penstrokes...

Hmmm... writing a blog for the 1st time?? well technically no .... fell asleep writing it at 1st ...... but I'd rather confess that i'm a complete novice at this ...

There is one thing odd about the human behavior...
what we take for granted may not be there the next moment and only when it's gone do we realize how deeply , intricately and beautifully we may be connected to it.... it's in a broad context..can be anything a person ,the nature, the environment or as simple as an object or the state of our living.....

We live in a life that achieves an equilibrium with the conditions around us so that rarely an event happens so as to bring a drastic change , what we need to realize is that simple decisions can effect this equilibrium in ways unseen to us and in a magnitude unfathomable...
the decision may be as simple to board a train laden with explosives or just to start a blog!!!



A plethora of ideas buzz in the head like sparks flying off a huge circuitry of the brain...the mind numbed down by the "holiday firewall" created by it which says " ignorance is bliss!!!".
The big question: is an idea worth it?? should one listen to random, sometimes seemingly ridiculous scehemes the crop up in one's head??
well .. i'd say why not?? after all is it wrong to assume that everyone has a "eureka" moment in his\her life?? The point is that people are so engrossed in mundane things that they refuse to acknowledge that they can make a difference .Now i'm not saying that each of us will make a ground breaking invention of some kind but the self belief that it can instill in us if we just open up our minds to "ourselves" !!
If u think u can make bits of left over candle wax into a piece of art...do it!!
If it strikes you to connect all the audio and video devices in different corners of your house to a single computer then do it!!( or at least try..) why be discouraged??!!

Even if we do not succeed or at least partially achieve what thought of , even then it wouldn't it be a tribute to the randomly firing and misfiring circuits up there in your head instilling a sense of joy and accomplishment???

P.S. - the examples may not look so elegant but what the heck!! you all get the point right??!!


P.PS- This is in the memory of a child who had an idea of creating a moving vehicle which used both suction and propulsion at the same time until one Uncle Newton came out of nowhere and kicked him hard in the balls.....

Before anything I must commend you on taking this initiative. There you just went on to say things about issues very near to my heart. Talking from your piece, my personal belief is that if we respect and recognize each person as a beholder of talents second to none we might just end up with people having more than a single high point or a eureka moment in their lives. The delivery of ideas were fairly articulate too. Keep it up and let it keep coming.

just the right blog one can expect under "musings of a different kind".. nice thinking. it actually conveys a very simple but a very meaningful message that "the race doesn't finish till i win it!" another way to say that the world needs your contribution.. so don't stop thinking your way

u penned down exactly what i used to think sometimes but i never expressed it...but u said that people r busy in mundane things which prevents them from thinking n getting deep into themselves...i rather think that people today r engrossed in too many interesting things.... with the onset of the multimedia age,we take while away our time watching tv series n movies or playing comp games blocking our mind from thinking....but a gr8 thing that u pointed out this fact...so keep going dude....

sounded more like a passage from some obscure journal..lol..yeah it's true small things do make a hell lot of differences but few of us take the initiative..
as for the 'musings',i guess they sounded rather equivocal ..try to be more objective..
all in all a good one..keep going
