As I..

As I sit by the shore
I can feel the breeze
Hitting my face
Sweeping away with it
My inner most fears.

As it starts to pour
I feel I could freeze
My limbs go stiff
Though I feel at peace.

As I walk through the lonely roads
The leaves stick to my skin
Giving me a feeling
That I am the only one.

As I sit in my verandah
Staring at the sky through the trees
While listening to the almost extinct sparrows
Chirping a sad symphony.

As I take a stroll in my terrace
Watching the moon-lit sky
The stars shining like the diamond
That makes me wonder more
What goes beyond this life.

It's been a while...

It's been a couple of years since I stopped writing. My excuse is going to be the same old - no time. Was busy hunting for my first job and getting married. And here I am; almost three years at work and one and a half years of being married, I've decided to make the time. You should expect a post or two a month. Watch out for the space for more. Cheers!

The playground theory

As part of a fitness routine, my husband and I have started going for regular walks. Bangalore, famous for its 'parks', has a small one just about a kilometre away from my place. We go around the park several times hoping the weighing scale shows some mercy on us and we have thankfully been successful so far. This gives me the time to think about life, how time has passed by in a hurry and how things have changed in so little time. Looking at 2 feet tall kids running around, it makes me feel so old and it got me thinking - when was the last time I was so carefree and all I had to worry about in life was "When do I get to go to the park the next day?" To come to think of it, kids during their playtime can actually teach you a lot and so can monkey bars and slides! Here are some instances that got me thinking: The oh-so-tall slide - Kids are hell scared to get on top of the slide and are terrified that they might tumble down. But when its quite successful the fi...

The Theory of TV and Human Behaviour

We as humans, when we think of television, the first thing that flashes into our minds is the different programs we watch frequently or something that has a positive or a negative impact on us. For instance, whenever I see the word ‘racial’ all that I can think of are the racial attacks on Indians in Australia. To come to think of it, we have actually decided that the attacks are purely of racial nature alone after the number of times the word RACIAL ATTACKS has been flashed on our television screens. Therefore, I have decided to look at the impact of television on the society and how it has conditioned us to think the way it wants us to. The theory is based on Marx’s concept of false consciousness and other sociological concepts. The theory is named as “TV AND HUMAN BEHAVIOUR”. The reason for this title is that, we as humans behave and react according to the events demonstrated on TV, either according to it or completely against it. Som...
