People Amaze Me

I am 25. By this age, most things become clear if one knows what one is looking for. Whether it is people, things, situations or anything else. There are always patterns. There is nothing new happening in the world today. The people today are so doped up on constant streams of information from television, internet, and their mobile phones that actual human contact has become somewhat of a luxury.

How many people do we interact with outside the office life? The friends from college and university will only hang around for so long. After a while, everyone drifts. Then, there are only sporadic phone calls, a forwarded sms or a sudden meeting in a public place. Even then too, how many things can one talk about, the conversation somehow veers towards the online life of Facebook, Twitter and what not. 

It's all funny in a way. You meet a friend after a long time and all you talk about is this and that or whatever happened on Facebook, or the Social Networking Channel of your choice. Then everyone is curious to know, "So, when are you getting married?"

"So, when are you getting married?"

This soon poses to be an irksome question. One can be rude and say, "Relax, I won't tell you whenever I get married." or even tell the aforementioned friend that its none of his or her goddamed business. 

People on the whole never cease to amaze me. Just when you think that you've the depraved acts that can be committed by a human being, there comes another one.

I am still gathering my thoughts about this space. So, till I focus in on something concrete, bear with the rants.

This is awkward...

I post to a lot of blogs. Sometimes I myself lose track of how many blog i have made, each for it's own subject matter. But now that I have a blog with my own name I have been somewhat skeptical/lazy/confused as to what to post here! Why this! 

Because simple as simple does, anyone who knows my name and anyone on the web can access this space and this space is going to be a personal expression, view, thought space. So, keeping those things in mind, the range of topics, the treatment i might want to give to them, and keeping them in the interest of everyone who might read, it becomes a very muddy, sludgy affair to write here. 

Maybe I am making it too complex, but what I want to write here is something that my mom would find funny and would appeal to regular blog readers too.

This narrows it down even more. This is pretty challenging too.

Oh well, let's see what this week spews up from its guzzards.

 

Today's Weather

Hello visitor,
Last post too old and too boring for your taste?
Well, it's more than one year old, what did you expect?
Nevermind that, let's get down to business.

This website is new, just one day old and i'm still tweaking it in more ways than one.
So, check back here sometime in the week, and i promise that things will be different and very very interesting. :)
