Music: My Best Companion...

Music: it has been my friend for a long time. A very good friend indeed which I'm sure I can never lose. I've loved music for as long as I can remember. I even tried my hand at it once but soon found out that it was not my cup of tea. I listen to it all the time, on my way to and from work, when I'm reading a book, while I'm in bed asleep and on my long runs(Which are but very few :) ). It helps me get relieved of stress, it gives me hope when I listen to some with such beautiful lyrics, and I'm at peace when I listen to ones with such soothing notes. It brings back sweet memories, even bitter ones some times but then again I'm still at peace. Sometimes it makes me think of my life, what it has been till now and where it is heading towards to now. It fills me with life.
It reminds me of my friends, and those "Happy Days" when I was at college. Those days when we used to bunk classes and go to the movies. Even getting thrown out of classes was fun. The funniest one I can remember was when my Math professor (can't remember his name) branded my friends (4 of them) and I as terrorists for disrupting the peace in class. He called us the Lashkar-e-Taiba group. We had such a good laugh after class and for the rest of the semester ...LOL... Sorry I digress. So I was talking about music. Sometimes it's nostalgic, sometimes its sad, sometimes very happy, and sometimes it fills me full of adrenaline. Sometimes its my only company when I'm all alone and need someone to talk to, sometimes it shows a new meaning to my life and sometimes it shows me how happy and content I'm and I don't regret anything that has happened in my life so far at that moment. It accompanies me everywhere, no matter what I'm doing. I even remember listening to music just before my job interview. And yes, I had been listening to one particular song all this while, when I was writing this post. Here it is for you to enjoy (Although its Telugu, I am sure everyone would enjoy it)...


I don't know what would happen to me without music. I thank all the people out there in the music industry for their beautiful gift.

The Buffalo Theory


I don't know if you have heard of this before, but this is a great theory. And its true 'coz it hasn't been proven otherwise :) .... Click on the image to read it ... Enjoy your beers guys and gals....

For a Reason...!


Everything you do in life, you do it for a reason, for a goal that you have set for yourself. it's not been any different for me either. I went to school when I was a kid for a reason, to be aware of the society and life around me. I went to college after that for the same reason. I worked hard in college for another reason, to get the best job possible. I tried hard for a job for another reason, I wanted to be independent. But there was another reason, why I didn't take up the first job that came my way but instead chose the dependent life for a couple of more years and came to this so called land of opportunities.
But what happens to life if that reason dies? What if there is nothing to live upto for? There are a few reasons that I can give, like to support my parents in future, to be successful blah blah blah which are always there. But these are not reasons good enough to lead an exciting life. These are not the reasons, that would force you to accelerate through life or to live on the edge or to take risks. These are reasons that are good only if you want to cruise through life. And I believe that life without risks is no life worth living. I want to get back on to the fast lane again, but a good reason is the ticket that would get me there. And thats what I'm living for now, to find a good reason to get back the life as it was.
