the epidural man

the other night.. this strange thought crossed my mind.. ( usually all i do whilst aslept is fantasize or just sleep ).. well the thought was "how many sleepless nights i had in my life"

i began counting.. "zero".. i started going back in time... 4 years of stay at iitb.. not a single thing that could sap my sleep.. ( note that nightouts which i have putted tons of times dont count).. there have events that have caused tremendous stress.. high tension moments which gave my mother insomnia.. but i have always slept through all that..

there have been butterflies in the stomach moments at night sometimes.. the one only i remember now is the pre JEE night.. That govt. guest house in jaipur.. where i woke a couple of times in the night.. but still.. I had a sate sleep..

thats it ladies n gents.. whether when i wake up it will be dooms day, the ultimate trial.. it doesnt matter.. i can always sleep at my will.. i dont know whether to take this as a virtue or vice.. another point which prove what i have realised since the past couple of months.. i am the epidural man

hope



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANDY: That there are things in this world not carved out of gray stone. That there's a small place inside of us they can never lock away, and that place is called hope.
RED: Hope is a dangerous thing. Drive a man insane.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANDY: Dear Red. If you're reading this, you've gotten out. And if you've come this far, maybe you're willing to come a little further. You remember the name of the town, don't you? I could use a good man to help me get my project on wheels. I'll keep an eye out for you and the chessboard ready. Remember, Red. Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies. I will be hoping that this letter finds you, and finds you well. Your friend. Andy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RED: I find I am so excited I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head. I think it is the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain... I hope I can make it across the border. I hope to see my friend and shake his hand. I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.

never say die

wanderlust

"The boy knew a lot of people in the city. That was what made traveling appeal to him - he always made new friends, and he didn't need to spend all of his time with them. When someone sees the same people every day, as had happened with him at the seminary, the wind up becoming a part of that person's life. And then they want the person to change. If someone isnt what others want them to be, the others become angry. Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about their own. "
-- Santiago in The Alchemist
