Time: 10.00 am Sunday, 22nd January
Just as I am writing to you, sitting before the computer, thinking of what to write , my mind is clouded with infinite possibilities of what to share with you today. To put it right,in a richie benaiudish way, my thinking is no were near where i am thinking.I pulverized my neurons, extracting all the juice of it, but failed to find a topic to dwell upon.
Time to get some inspiration . Off I went .....
Time:11.57 am Sunday, 22nd January
Am back to where I left .... still blank ....
Time:12.07 pm Sunday, 22nd January
Here I am , now i have got what to write, and my inspiration a small boy, sticking his thumb into his mouth,walking down the street, without any botheration about the future ,living his life carefree.
Ah how dearly I wish to live like that again ! No responsibilities, no appraisals, no code reviews,no deadlines, nothing at stake, living life as it goes.
Oh oh , atleast i had them time today to think about my childhood , the most coveted days, school and college which am sure, everyone would want a second stint .
'antha naal knyabagam nenchile vandadhe nanbane nanbane nanbane'
indha naal andru pol indamai illaiye athu yen yen yen'
' butthagam kaiyile buthiyo paatile .......
Such is the nature of the world that it has made us slaves to responsibility, money , and has curbed our spirit of free thinking. What ever we do has to be within the boundaries of work,family, culture, society and what not.In an acre of land only a square foot remains for us with the rest occupied by hedges.
@college and school every day was sunday but now, week ends are like heaven. All I want to do a weekends is to be at peace. Dont do anything !!!. Work has made me so.Even the small things which used to interest me @school and college are no more interesting.
Everytime I do something , i question myself "why am i doing this/ , In what way is it going to benefit me?" In the end i keep asking questions and working for my company for getting some figures added up in my bank account. Life has become all money and work, with lesser time to spend for myself.
There are a lot of kids near my house. Every time i see them playing , I long to be one among them. I know, unless something like benjamin button happens, i will not be able to do it :)
I want to be free
I want to fly,roam around the world
I want to enjoy my life
I want to be me....
Dont you?
the sweet looking kid in the image is my source of inspiration and i just took few snaps of him:)
ReplyDeleteHa ha.. u ve been wearing the shoes of the reader and dropped the first comment :)
ReplyDeleteWhile i was opening the comments link, the first thing tat came to my mind was to ask if that boy in that picture was U :)
Who is richie benaiudish.. I know only Richie Guy :)
ReplyDeleteVery true picture depicted.
ReplyDeleteCha irunthalum jeffrey how can u work behind money earning intentions da ;P...
But aama da, college life was again like reliving childhood days
@Jeff: Oru super thathuvam da.. I felt it when reading ur pitiful storu.. kelu.. "_Lifenrathu velia edutha tooth paste mathiri.. atha ulla podanumnu nenaika mudiume thavira.. ulla poda mudiathu_" :D :D
ReplyDelete@Jeff: I too felt the same two or odd months before with office work eating over my life - but must say I have got an ok kind of solution for this. Make it clear in your mind that office is not your whole world and office work is not your only job. It will naturally get to a stage where you will get enough concentration to finish off your office work soon and @ office.
ReplyDeleteI used to work nearly 11 to 12 hours before and now it has reduced as much as to 8 hours and the rest time is all mine :)
Thathuvam is nice meenakshi, i resist it works. :) Atleast for guys it wouldnt. Maybe for gals it might, as they might not be looking for a long term work association
ReplyDelete@senthil
ReplyDeleteya you are right, when you are planning to work for a min of another 30 odd years then you have to really enjoy what u r doing, else however concentration and dedication u have u will feel bored of the work
