another year

Look back and take a grand glorious view of the year bygone. Step back and pinpoint the nooks and crannies of the things that have happened and things that should have happened. Savour the nostalgia dipped in salty spheres, sugared highs, and cascading sour-tapes; flickering on a reel of a VHS technicoloured re-run. It's been strange. It's been rather sublime. Full of farcical instances.  

Cut-off places. Lost sunshines. Rediscovered links. Reanimated intentions.

Not too shabby.
Not too lurid.
A pretty good year after all.

smile for a better world!

Find something in your life daily that makes you smile.

Could be that kitten that walked across your flower pots, or that oddly shaped cloud in the sky. Whatever it may be, smiling helps anyone and will give you plus,+, plus, +, plus points that would brighten up any day.

Disconnect! Rejoin the REAL WORLD

"Facebook is a fantasy land of goofy pictures and meaningless banter, and too many people are getting lost in that make-believe world. Too many people are under the illusion that on Facebook they actually are engaged in a community, when the truth is they are alone in a room and staring at a screen."
- Marc McAfee

Marc's views are true to every though and fact that people should realise about this ginornimous online phenomenon. Replying to a two-word post on your wall in Facebook does not qualify as a conversation. Soon enough we will be all losing touch with our inherent conversational skills and dissolve to sms-like yelps in reality. Stop stalking your so called 'friends' online and give them a phone call instead. Or even better, call them and ask them out for a drink. If you can't suck up the courage to do so you would have already been infected by the fear of facing people.  

You will be surprised at how much more it means to others meeting up in real life rather than hiding behind a screen

running up that hill

...if only I could,
make a deal with God,
and get him to swap our places,
be running up that road,
be running up that hill,
be running up that building...


Whether its different, its still the same. tough.
