THE ITCH TO GET THAT BITCH!


As humans, we are bound to make mistakes. Simple fact: we aren’t programmed with the perfect thinking, the perfect decision-making-ability and the perfect judgments about choices or for the matter of fact, people.

I’m a normal human being, like some of them out there!
I’ve made a lot of mistakes, like any other human being!
I’ve had some of the worst relationships, like any other 22 year old!
I’ve had sleepless nights and mind baffling sessions with myself, just like any other adult!
Similarly, I too have several dreams stuck in that subconscious release state of my mind which are impatient enough to ooze out, but somehow don’t find the right channel.

So this “to-do” stuck in that subconscious state of mind makes us scratchy! Such a bitch it is! Damn it!
Basically every human has this *itch*. According to Dictionary.com it is ‘to have a desire to do or get something’. Itch, in simple terms is a strong feeling- which is definitely not about scratching your body! It’s the itch that makes us ‘get’ what we want.

Sometimes it takes us years to realize what caused that itch, or probably find out a proper medication (metaphorically) for it. And sometimes- just the times when you’re really lucky, you understand it and prescribe yourself the perfect cure that’ll take you through that channel!

The ‘Scratch-your-body’ itch gives us an urge to get it done with as soon as possible. Who wouldn’t want to stop scratching his bare back in public right?! Just like that, we get this irrepressible itch, to ooze out our ‘to-do’ and frame it into a picture perfect reality. The one we want! All cause to make our life a little more simple and free from mind-f’ed-ness!
Or to simply say, just to get that bitch out in real!

I’m working towards my ‘to-do’ with a hope to frame it into this real world than the flimsy reel dreams!

It’s time to curb my itch to get that bitch out, right?! Let see how soon that becomes!

Till then, happy reading! :)

DREAMS DON'T WORK UNLESS YOU DO.


During one of the early morning senseless-training-introduction-sessions they asked us to describe ourselves in a word each. And like always, I described myself as a dreamer. Now, generally what I receive as a reaction is ‘Ooh! / Haa! How nice!’ or some mockery. But from nowhere, a person sitting right across me, turned out to be an interjector and questioned about my dreaming reality and ‘procedure’. Yup! ‘What’s the procedure of your dreaming? How do you do that?
For about 10 seconds I kept staring him with one brow up. (Okay, I can’t do that! But still a similar expression :^\ ) I couldn’t decide whether I should just laugh out loud on his face or answer him outta the designation hierarchy and official environment. But deciding the latter was difficult too, considering he calling himself ‘creative’ without knowing how to color coordinate his clothes while dressing up for office!

I did both. I laughed at first and then answered him asking what dreams meant to him. Not to my surprise he answered what any regular middle-aged-frustrated-sleepless IT professional would. ‘Wahi jo sone ke time pe aate hai ya office mien kabhi kabhi- mainly those that give you temporary happiness and generally poore nahi hote’. 
Again! I kept quiet for 10 seconds, stared at him, and then mentally thought of saying –Sirji, grow up no?

I don’t know how you explain a person how to dream! I had no idea what to say! The closest I could think was to tell him what I generally dream about, thinking I might just inspire him to go dream, sleep and stop the boring training session!

After I finished story-telling my dreams, and how this office is one of the ‘loveliest’ places in my satire world; he asked me how do I make sure of getting them to reality. And then from somewhere, (I really don’t know HOW!!?) I quoted him- ‘Dreams don’t work unless you do!” For a minute, I was looking at his awestruck reaction and then I wondered what made me slap such an awesome line on his face, rather what made it strike my mind in the first place only!? Or for the matter of fact, how could John C. Maxwell strike me bang on that time!? Sigh!

Dreams don’t work unless you do. How unintentionally philosophically true can I get! Until and unless you don’t get up and start doing something about your dream, your sleeping on the couch won’t make it come true no!? You dream, you plan, and you *HAVE TO* work out to get it right into the real world. Simple!


After saying those sooper awesome lines, I just added another poster to my wall. And my lazy brain has started its realization process for the ‘To-Do’ - to get those big dreams to reality!

What about you? :)

YEH SAALI ZINDAGI!


Somehow when lots of other things start leading, your I-love-this-from-the-bottom-of-my-heart thing takes a backseat. And here I go explaining why I haven’t been blogging that often.

So since quite some time my mind’s on this stupid roller coaster ride, by the end of which I’m sure even my brain would puke! Which I wonder when it’ll end! Sigh!
It goes like this okay; you dream something- you plan it- you follow it till you get it. But then you dream more- you plan that too- and somehow you get close to get that too. But the problem arises when your dreaming-planning-wanting and getting overlaps.

And bam! It did!

It’s not as if it won’t make you happy or anything, but who wouldn’t prefer a simple untangled life!? Not that your dreaming made life complicated but it just happened. Life is fairly simple. But we insist on making it complicated. Natural human tendency it is. We've been told there's a certain way to live- that this is living. And we, we never really question it. We just sort of go along. But what if it's not the best way? What if there's another way that's better? What if there's something more?! This is what makes you dream more and there you go! You make it complicated- or at least mentally complicated enough for you to end up writing a blog post amidst lotta work in the office!

Dreaming, for sure, is not the problem. Or for the matter of fact, the cause of this obscured phase of life. The mind probably is.
And what can you do in such a situation? Simple! Write it down! Or Dance it away. Probably Dream more. And dream even bigger this time! *WORKS!*

Till then, happy reading! :D
