And yet everything happens for a reason.

Knowingly we do so much...things that are better left alone.So much of life is wasted on the trivial.

Things,beings....judged..unjudged,things that seem so mundane...done...undone.

Confusion where clarity could so easily have prevailed.We keep collecting trivia,knowing it is of no consequence, really.

My mind asks me to talk to you, but my soul cannot accept.My eyes refuse to look up and into.

I am not sorry, just puzzled.Why do i even bother.

And yet everything happens for a reason.

E-square

If you stay in Pune you must have heard of this place.Music, books , people, movies, Gift shops,People.....:) happening all day long.

Although , I have a totally different E-square in mind.The kind that only half the population (well almost) of the world gets to experience.And probably very few of them are aware of it.

I am talking about E-square = Estrogen Emotion.

Every lady goes through it, mostly unaware...attributing the changes in behaviour to a bad day.
Surprisingly though a lot of men seem to know about PMSing.Not that it is a bad thing...in fact it is rocking, if and only if they do more than just know, if they understand and not attribute every single emotion as a "side effect".

So if it is a man reading this you might consider to reconsider a lot of things.Whereas if you a women reading this and thinking E-sqaure has never affected me maybe you should reconsider too.

Rock on.

Milestones.

Each culture has a certain expectations from its individuals. Women in India are expected to know a few things for sure and be of a certain type.It works likewise for men also (ofcourse).

However as times progress there is a shift from what is expected from the same individuals.... it shifts from being gender specific to being more...well individual centric.

We are programmed and therefore expected to hit a few milestones over our lifetime.Our lifetime has its definition to the world outside by means of some of these milestones that we have achieved and by some that we are yet to achieve.

But do we really want to hit these milestones...how strong is our urge to move away....to seek a path with zero milestones,only levels that the mind should achieve.

Break...

All of our lifetime is spend exploring .... as children we explored nature, as teenagers we explore our boundaries.Early twenties is a difficult phase as you start to discover that so much of what we explored is true and a more of it false .

At this time of life you want to do so many things ...things that you know you could not do as a child but need to do right now or else you may never truly appreciate them.

Silly things really...you sometimes wish for a heartbreak...to really know what is it that so many people around us talk about..to know if you can really practice what you preach.And then one day all the wishing , comes true.... and then heart break happens even before joy even begins to fill you.

ha ha

All you can then really do is laugh out loud .......not knowing which is worse....the acceptance that so much you wished against all odds to work did not, or that you would never know what certain words mean......ever.

When Farmers die....

My grandfather took care of a family of 12 using 45 acres of land, 1 bore well and a lot of hard work.
Flash to today …….the acres remain the same, hard work is replaced by more hard work, prosperity replaced by drought and the farmers no longer harvest income …they harvest Death.

Crushed by circumstances beyond their control the life of the Indian farmer and his family has turned highly fragile. To add to all this, this year brought with it reports of hunger death. One more bad season and a lot more than the food providers would be lost, we would lose their trust and faith.

Twenty-five thousand farmers have committed suicide under these circumstances since 1997. In the state of Andhra Pradesh alone, 4,500 farmers have committed suicide in the past seven years. This does not include the number of family members of farmers who have also killed themselves. Things are not so bad as they may seem …..they are Worse.

The result of years of onslaught from all fronts…faulty seeds, the green revolution that rendered the soil useless, move from food crops to cash crops, government policies, lack of subsides, lack of transportation, lack of direct selling opportunities, poor rains, steady erosion of local democratic system, worsening rural employment, collapse of the agriculture credit and finance systems have pushed the farmers to protest….an ultimate protest against a society that shows no concern.

As citizens we need to show more concern and protest against the injustice met. The recent move by the Maharashtra government to provide the effected families with top bred cows is a step towards more destruction. what the farmers need is not another mouth to feed but more reliable seeds, subsidies, better logistics, guarantee of employment.

The only ray of hope is the involvement of corporate's…… for a lesser exploitation is better than complete destruction.

The Reason..for the blog

So much lies within us ...so much of it goes untold .
