To all the people who I love and care ..

I used to be afraid of so many things... That I'd never grow up. That I'd be trapped in the same place for all eternity. That my dreams would forever be shy of my reach.

It's true what they say. Time plays tricks on you. One day you're dreaming, the next your dream has become your reality.

And now that this 'scared little boy' no longer follows me wherever I go, I miss him. I do. 'Cause there are things I wanna tell him-- to relax, to lighten up, that it is all going to be OK.

I want him to know that meeting people who like you, who understand you, who actually accept you for who you are, will become an increasingly rare occurrence. These people who contributed to who I am, they are with me wherever I go, and as history gets rewritten in small ways with each passing day, my love for them only grows. Because the truth is... it was the best of times.

Mistakes were made, hearts were broken, harsh lessons learned, but all of that has receded into fond memory now.

How does it happen? Why are we so quick to forget the bad and romanticize the good? Maybe it's because we need to believe that the time we spent together actually meant something, that we were there for each other in a time in our lives that defined us all, a time in our lives that we will never forget.

To all the people who I love and care ... thanks for being there for me!

Get away!

Sometimes you just need time to relax and do nothing... This week off was somewhat similar. I took an extra day off... which was pretty hard to get, and went over to a relatives place in Delhi.

In the span of three days.. i did pretty much nothing usual. I lazed around, cooked and read a novel. I was away from home, from work and even from friends. The best part of the three days were it took my mind off everything that is going on. I was in a completely different place and had nothing to worry me. Luckily the people I know did not call or leave a message.

When I returned on the third day I was surprised by myself, I was actually looking forward to getting into my routine, the things that were bothering me a couple of days back had suddenly become exciting and I saw them with a whole new and renewed perspective.

I needed to do nothing for some time now, and this was the perfect opportunity for me. I made the most of it. So if you are feeling all stressed out and uncomfortable get away for a couple of days and come back all charged up!

Finally...

March 05, 2009... goes down in history as the day i finally signed up for a blog.

I've havent been trying hard to start a blog, but I have been looking forward to start one for a couple of years now. What the blog should be about was a decision I couldn't make, so I said to myself today.. lets start with whatever pops up in my and see where it goes.

Let me begin by my introduction..
I am 22, M, single.
I am passionate about computers and love to meet new people.
I like to do gardening and spend hours listening to music.
I am not the guy who will spend hours studying, but I like to fully understand things that interest me. I have completed college in June 08 and had a legendary time... but all good times end and so did college. Now I am working fulltime and really miss hanging out with my college friends.

Funny! aint it? How life takes over things. You get busy... others get busy and suddenly the people who you used to care the most about, hardly know anything about each other. But life goes on... non-stop! It keeps throwing new challenges everyday to keep you busy and at times wonder about what happened to the people who were a part of your life not very long ago!

If you happen to land on this blog, please leave a comment.. anything relevent or irrelevent. It will give me a reason to continue blogging.

So today I've started on a new journey, hoping to meet new people, make friends, learn new things, share whatever I know along the way!
