Stranger on My Blog...

I like the soul in your blog posts.. said a stranger
And i wondered.. is it better to have a soul within, or take it out on a bare display... win accolades for that?

And then.. she's still a stranger, largely... not that i'd want her to be!

Pal...

पल… बस ठ़हरने को कहा था तुझे, अपना बनाने की गुज़ारिश नहीं की थी
तू किसी और का हुआ तो क्‍या, मेरे लिए रुक तो सकता था!

Pal.. bas theherne ko kaha tha tujhe, apna banane ki guzarish nahin ki thi
Tu kisi aur ka hua toh kya, mere liye ruk toh sakta tha!

Different Shoes

used to think... why's someone doing a thing i'd never do!!
i don't put him in my shoes anymore.. step into his'

The MANkind

Sometime back (been long, actually) a friend plagiarised (er.. sorry if you are reading this... let's say you were INSPIRED) a popular note on women , and wrote her version for my kind -

OLD ELEMENT IN THE PERIODIC TABLE

Element : MEN

Symbol : WO-

Atomic mass : Accepted as 65 kg; isotopes may vary from 40-200 kg

Occurrence : Copious quantities in all urban, rural and forest areas

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

1. White, brown or black

2. Adsorption, tremendous affinity to dirt and dust

3. Condensation, covered with a layer of sweat

4. Bad odour

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES

1. Highly reactive with WO+

2. Hybridized state : Electrons always in excited state

3. Capacity to form Unlimited bonds with WO+

4. Does not allow bonding between own WO+ with other WO-

5. Breaks bond with WO+ with high frequency and looks for new WO+

6. High affinity for C2H5OH, alcohol. Shows Brownian movement under it's effect

7. Repelling effect with water

COMMON USES

None found till date

TESTS

1. Turns green when WO+ reacts with another WO-

2. Litmus test : Turns red to blue due to perspiration

POTENTIAL HAZARD

WO+ must always take precautions before WO- bonds, potential threat to mental and physical health. Highly Unstable, keep WO+s out of reach

This was my reply to her...

Just additions to what she wrote.. to give a different perspective

OLDEST ELEMENT IN THE PERIODIC TABLE

PREDATES ALL OTHER ELEMENTS, ACCEPTED NEGATIVITY TO HIGHLIGHT THE IMPERCEPTIBLE POSITIVITY IN WO+

Element : MEN

Symbol : WO-

Atomic mass : Accepted as 65 Kg; isotopes may vary from 40-500 kg (ref. WWE)

Occurrence : Copious quantities in all urban, rural and forest areas, basically wherever there are traces of WO+

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

1. White, brown or black (please make a note of the variety)

2. Adsorption, tremendous affinity to dirt and dust; characteristic of activity, as opposed to the gross inactivity typical of WO+

3. Condensation, covered with a layer of sweat as a result of the tremendous (sometimes inhumane) toils it undertakes for the sake of WO+

4. Bad odour, camouflaged with deodorants in the advanced members of the species

CHEMICAL PROPERTIES

1. Highly reactive with WO+, react to stabilise WO+

2. Hybridized state : Electrons always in excited state, catalysed by WO+

3. Capacity to form Unlimited bonds with WO+; only if the scope of his WO+s interacting with each other is minimal

4. Does not allow bonding between own WO+ with other WO-, because more bonding between positive and negative ions can result in annihilation

5. Breaks bond with WO+ with high frequency and looks for new WO+, a process often precursored and initiated by WO+. Strangely WO+ regrets once the process is over, n blames it on WO-

6. High affinity for C2H5OH, alcohol. Shows Brownian movement under its effect; which is highly amusing for WO+, so accept it for the entertainment value

7. Repelling effect with water, excepting the water bodies inhabited by WO+

COMMON USES

None found till date, except that their unavailability would render (most specimens of) WO+ incapacitated of bonding

TESTS

1. Turns green when WO+ reacts with another WO- (ref. chemical properties of WO-, given above, for the underlying logic)

2. Litmus test : Turns red to blue due to perspiration (ref. physical properties of WO-, given above)

POTENTIAL HAZARD

WO+ must always take precautions before WO- bonds. Potential threat to mental and physical health, because being transported to higher levels can be dangerous for elementary samples of WO+. Once accustomed, the experience is similar to the attainment of nirvana.

Highly Unstable, keep WO+s out of reach. The instability is very superficial, though WO+s with a penchant for existentialism should better be kept out of reach.

The Moot Point

2.50 am.. felt kinda low..

had been chattin with a good old friend on Yahoo... told him... excerpt -

dd: why low ?
dd: best B school
dd: good internship
dd: so many bandis
dd: aur kya chahiye
dd: #-o
me: koi bandi nahi abhi
me: nyway thats not the moot point..
me: the moot point is futility
me: absolute futility
me: dont u feel sometimes that life's driving u rather than u driving life!!
me: n that too life drives u by its own whims
me: i've been resisting it.. successfully to quite an extent
me: par kabhi kabhi lagta hai.. thak gaya hoon...
me: everything around seems empty.. an illusion..
me: its like living in the matrix

life's not an ordeal.. at all...
but its inherent simplicity is often lost in a din created by a certain myopia.. which makes an entity seem more intricate than it is.. n then the noise is all pervasive.. you never realise how simple things are... turns into a vicious circle.. and you never realise how simple life was... ever
that is THE MATRIX

and people lookin at things from a different, somewhat complicated, perspective often affect me as well.. cause some heartburn.. but i chose them to be a part of my life. and the cheer they bring to it more than makes up for everything
