ode to a beautiful some1~~

She's so circumspect.. that in retrospect
there won't be much left to regret!!

when we go back home.. and she drives alone
she pulled the parachute and pressed eject!!

Safe but far from safety..
they worship her like a deity!

when the sun goes down in hollywood
she paints her eyes and is off to see red!

its not as horrible as it seems
but magnificence is over-rated!

when the dust settles and we call it quits
atleast she would have lived!

principld livin'

the 2 principles to live by in kolkata
1. money is no object
2. time is no issue
this was mostly his philosophy for kol... i'v contributed about 10% to this.. but its so brilliantly true :)

:)
when this is the basis of yr philosophy for life.. in a city... one wonders.. how much can there be to complain about in life.. :)


today... was a couple of very interesting learnings... from the weirdest of un-expected places...

part 1:in the show he mentioned... each one of us has a specific picture, which is from our past... running in our heads... when we talk about back home (india) mine is this, kolkata... since my folks are from here.
and this... was sucha profound statement... it holds so true... our reality of things is always a shade from our past... be it abt some experience... some city.. or some situation.. its worrying almost.. to think of all communication as chinese whisper.. and how its so easy... for 2 ppl to be constantly in touch and yet see the situation in 2 opp scenario's... cos they come from diff realities..

part 2: like we went to this all-night open dhaba place.. post the show... and the man serving on our table.. gave us all 3 the nod.. like we were regulars.. and we discussed... this was my first time in the place... he had come there after abt 2 yrs... and he was also very erratic at best....
but then we remarked.. that if any of us were with a girl right now.. n the waiter nodded.. v'd prolly nod back n say somethin.. to imply v'r regulars here... coz its prolly cool to be acknowledged n considerd a regular.. just about anywherE!
