Coffee And Karma

Kids, we often get options in life. We make a choice and leave the other options behind. It's strange how each of those ignored options could have created a different life altogether. :D (If you think it's from HIMYM, then blitz you :P) Okay, so here goes my maze theory.. I often think if I had taken Path A, I would be somewhere else. And, if I had chosen Path B, I would be.. ahem.. totally somewhere else. <Imagines an insect in a maze taking different paths  :P > The beauty of choices is that even though they take us through different paths, we aim to reach the SAME end. Some paths take us to that end, and some leave us stuck in the mid of the game.

In the fall of 2011 (ok today ;) ), I was hunting for a top that I had to wear for (say, "an upcoming event"). After trying almost a dozen of them, I started feeling that I've grown so fat, and can't fit into anything. In spite of making so many efforts to loose weight, it was all a waste. This self condemn lasted for few minutes until I found the one which was a perfect fit. And that very moment, I felt ... this is the one! The only quote that stuck me at that moment was 'Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish on it's ability to climb a tree, it will live it's whole life believing it's stupid.' Very petty thing, but I don't know how many times I end up condemning myself for being unfit, when the fact is that I wasn't meant to fit there. But, I'll get to that some other time ;) PS: Yessssssss, HIMYM is taking over me ;)

Why do we 'fall' in love, and not 'rise' in love? What is better - falling or rising? Perhaps, falling in love is better. It's beautiful because you surrender yourself, just like when you are falling you lose it all and simply come down to your knees. But, the word 'fall' has a negative connotation to it. Falling is about losing balance. It's about coming down. It's about loss. Why we use such a negative word with love? May be rising in love is a better way to say it. Falling is easy, uncontrollable and can happen to anyone. Not all can muster the courage to get up though. But again, you can't experience rising until you have fallen. May be falling and rising are two phases. You have to fall, loose yourself and then slowly rise up.

Sudden realisation. Isn't life very much similar to snakes and ladders game? When something good happens, the ladder of success takes us to the top, and in another moment, a snake bite can bring us down - right at square one. But, you never know which phase of life has a snake/ladder waiting for you.. Even when we are happy, there is a fear of the landing up on the block where longest snake is waiting to destroy everything in a moment, and that we will have to start from the scratch! :S We do get up and dream again, even if we just had a major fall. There is chase. A lot of Competition. Of course, peer-pressure too.  But, only limited time! Sigh. I guess this is the beauty of this game.  There is an excitement at every step. A hope as we move from block to block. A prayer for desired number on every roll of dice. Yes, there are snakes. But, there are ladders as well :D

Very often I get into the situations where I have this eternal question in front of me- to 'hold on' or to 'let go'? And most of the times, I don't have the answer...!

Beginnings are always uncomfortable. In the mid, it feels as if the past and future are infinite. When approaching end, nostalgia takes over. And when it comes to an end, I dread the uncomfort of a new beginning...

I  can still so relate to this movie.. Goosebumps :) :) :) Best quote: Don't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.

I feel I am getting inclined towards 'The Big Bang Theory' when I have been a BIG fan of 'How I Met Your Mother'.. Two different traits, huh?

Nobody warned me about your smile... You are the light.. When I close my eyes, you make me colorblind.. colorblind.. ! :) :) :)

Few things I am in love with recently: - These days it feels so good to see a person who is in love with his own self :) - I feel so mesmerized to see how some people put words to every petty feeling which we ignore in the humdrum of life. - I am recently in love with captions too. They put dialogues in those silent pictures, and can give them a meaning. - I am loving the recent habit picking up small stuff from here and there that I don't really need! :) - I love randomly surprising people around :) -The best is... I feel like blogging again :)

Title of experiment: ... Purpose of experiment: To study human behavior in case of 'unknown' communication signals ;) Method of experiment: I sent the mysterious " ..."  to some people to see if silence can actually speak :P Findings: Guess what all replies all got.. !! "?" "??" "???" "dot dot dot??" "????" "Just come back now!" "busy. brb" "hmmm...." "ye kya hai?" "yo ke hai chorii" "not liking it there?" Result : I was entertained :D
