Boredom @ its Best: Let Life Suck! (For a while)


I really wish I had fewer days for my vacations to end. It really gets boring after some days when you are at home, sitting and doing nothing for a while. Now I know how my dad must be feeling after his retirement! He too keeps working constantly even after he’s officially done serving the government. Why should I stay behind then? I too get the same feeling (apart from inheriting the genes) of working restlessly on a project that’s given to accomplish. Family, friends and relatives all have their values at a place where we can visit often when we are down and out, but the problem I feel is, when the work environment gets shuffled with personal life. The proximity of work location and home is not the criterion here, but the vicinity where we abode with them together surely will come into picture when we react rather respond to situations.

It is not a good omen that we get frustrated at work and take it out on the cookery. If the food tastes bad that night, then probably either the mood for dinner is not set, or the taste of dinner itself has changed the set mood. If your mother wants to watch the daily soaps and you’re rather interested surfing 100 channels in one minute, she’s definitely get pissed off with you. I am stuck in neither of the situations. It’s just I realized, how important it is, to keep the work going. If you stop for quite a long time, your rhythm is about to rust. Unless we don’t galvanize on our daily activities, life will keep deteriorating at its worst.

For a while, it is okay if life sucks! Be lazy, be crazy, be sad, and be mad! Be a fool, be cool, be amnesiac, be insomniac, be lunatic and more importantly… Be Romantic!!! This will actually keep you going on & on & on & on………..

Waiting for a miracle

The mirage isn’t real, the moon isn’t near, the hope, probably feeble, and life, certainly terse. A verse, has to be written to tell a story. Because this fairy tale, is getting gory. You wished for a smile, and walked through the isle, you wished for the reveries to come true. A fine friend, you expected. A flawed foe, and a marred knot, you got. While I hopefully craved for the dawn, you eclipsed into despair with a resentful scorn. Emotions began to take turns on the weighing scale. My pains versus yours, versus our trust getting frail. Giving up may not be your forte, and winning may not be mine. Deprived and devoid of love, we live together, waiting for tides to change, waiting for a sign from Above, waiting for the impossible, waiting for a miracle.

Where’s the Middle Ground?

If you are a middle-class man and married recently, there must be an incessant turmoil going on in your mind. You must be thinking, “why me?” There were times when nobody cared what you did, or said. But now, after you are married, everyone questions your decisions and actions (even inactions). You are blamed for posing a “changed” (read,  spoilt ) behaviour and it is basically not you – it's because of YOUR WIFE, who has drastically changed you as per her convenience and necessities, just because you are like clay in your thirties. Anybody can manipulate you and make you their slave, right? That’s the intention of every marriage – to enslave all of “Man” kind. The mother-sister combo tries that for a particular period with all their love. To some extent they succeed without any resistance from you. Because, you too love them back equally for everything they did to you, right from your birth till your marriage. Now that you have become their most prized possession, it is nearl...

What are you?
