what's he building in there?

since sometime now, i ve been growingly restless about my future. which kinda goes against my well bought principles. (and i am not very pleased about it. alarmingly calm though.)

i am not sure. is the answer. there are questions.

1. greatness. all our education would suggest, greatness is something that is bestowed upon you, not something that can be chased or scheduled. i remember having a lengthy discussion with one of the senior scientists about this topic and soon realised that - greatness is handed out in kind packets like savories in the local mithai shop, if you are lucky enough. i ve seen greatness walk around the corridors in the building i work in; i ve shared elevators with it.. pissed in pee pots next to it. there is no glamour to greatness after its 15 minutes. there is its existence though. in a quiet and sometimes respected manner. which made it apparent, it is not greatness one should chase.. but respect. and it is far more humble. and less restless.

2. love. impure. women are selfish. men are stupid. the days two of these people are fooled outta these.. the two are happy and the world would seem as glorious as the sun beams across a shining bay to call it lovely.

3. home. we lose it everyday, only realise it much later. don't try to define it, it will only make you sad.

4. happiness. is all around you. =)

ironic lives, brilliantly underlined by some habitual need for excitement and clamouring for attention in hours of uneasy solitude. this, is what we ve become. as a generation.

sometimes i get annoyed with myself, for turning into two people.

and in three years from now, if i am still writing stuff like this.. and if you see me around, remind me of the following video i ve been saving since sometime now. kindly.
