On the side of a country road
I found someone waiting alone
When my eyes collide with her
Strange feeling made me shiver
I know this face long ago
But where is the life in those eyes
Without a single word or thought
We started walking together
With the golden rays of evening sun
We took the road which has no ending
The birds are singing on our way
The night is ready to take us away

I was roaming around yesterday…I thought of having some food…I was about to enter a hotel but something caught my attention…I saw a kid standing in front of the hotel begging for some food with his mom (I think that’s his mom…of at least for the time being…)
The entire appearance of that kid looks very dirty…according to some of my friends this is just a marketing strategy…I wonder why people think like that… is that because they want to use big terms even in day to day life?…I think now a days we got an analytical eyes than human eyes…I hate this…
I was watching him…when someone comes out of that hotel…his eyes go so bight and he will ask them for some food/money…as soon as they deny him then all the brightness will go…if somebody give something the he will smile…I felt his eyes is like a lamp which on and off with a switch…
Hardly I have noticed someone eyes with this much intensity of hope… (Forget about the day to day acting we does in the office…)
I felt that as a real spark of hope…

April 23, 2008 ….its been 2 years I got married…wow …what a feeling…there was a time when I thought that no one will ever take me into their life as what I am. I hate pretending …even that is happened and it’s happening for last 2 years…
People think life will change a lot after marriage…I don’t agree…I am still the same…I still enjoy my rides…I still enjoy my music…I still walk in the rain…I still dream looking the stars…I still party …
Thanks to my wife, who sat with me to listen all my craziness…she was there to support all my small dreams by taking it so seriously and putting all effort to see me smiling…she took me as what I am and not what I will be or what I could be…
When we met I never thought that I will marry her. I shared almost everything happened in my life and I was sure that listening to all those she wont even think to marry me…
I was mistaken… and she is with me now. She gave me the most precious gift …my son…
I am scribbling for you my dear…who knows the real me and still loving me for what i am…
Today we celebrate one more year…
Of a wonderful sail called life
I can see everything so clear
Like it all happened yesterday
The priest gave your hand to me
The smiling face of your sister
The tears of joy from your mom
The initial hug of your father…
The joyful giggle of my brother
The naughty words from my friend
The serous jokes from my father
The sign of relief from my mom
You told me to forget the bitter past
You teach me to smile on all joys
Your smile can make my evenings
Your eyes tells me thousand stories
Today will bring you lot of luck<
I am there with you on every step
But the best is yet to come
You tell me every day…

Today is very different… Don’t know why…After office I took my bullet (my bull is my part of life now) and gone for a long ride…evening was pleasant enough and after couple of kilometers I was away from the mad traffic…I had a car here in Bangalore but I was totally fed up with that for parking, driving in this stupid traffic etc…I am lucky I don’t have one now… Bull is good …you can feel the surroundings …the wind blowing against your face…you can feel the ride in all aspect …
Life was always different to me. ..I always had a reason for my thoughts and actions…I never tried to think life from others point of view…I paid a huge price for that…but still I am not changed that much…why is it like that? Why can’t I pretend at least?
I got two comments today on different occasions…
one told me …”you are a dreamer and there is no way you can live the way you want…forget it…your thoughts are not gelling with the society…you are answerable to lot of people…mind it”
My mind said…”sree …you have only one life…forgets the society rules …this is also created by people like you once…so you have all the rights to change the rules…if people can’t understand you, its not your fault…may be they can’t think from your point of view…” (This is why I love myself…J)
On the other occasion I had to give solutions to someone’s problem. He told me…”No wonder people think you are arrogant…you are truthful to your thoughts and your actions…change it dude…otherwise the mass crowd won’t accept you”
My mind told me…” forget the crowd…you are surrounded with some good people who can understand you as you…who are there for you every time you need…don’t look for the quantity look for the quality…”
The evening was pleasant …I turned my bike…while riding my mind started singing a scorpion song
“I saw the evening
Fading shadows one by one
We watch the lamb, lay down to the sacrifice
I saw the children
The children of the sun
How they wept, how they bled, how they died
Do you ever ask yourself
Is there a heaven in the sky
Why cant we stop the fight
cause we all live under the same sun
We all walk under the same moon
Then why, why cant we live as one…
The song goes on …like my thoughts…never ending…
I told myself …follow your dream…never allow time to fade it…

Couple of my friends asked me why the hell I am not putting anything on my blog..
The reason is very simple… I was lost…I myself don’t know what the hell I was doing last so many days…
I took a short break and went to my home time… it is so sweet… No traffic jams… No busy schedules… good food… I can enjoy the morning with birds singing… I can enjoy the sun set…visiting some temples in the evening… (I like this mainly because hardly anybody there who visit temples in the evening time now a days …since my home town is a village you wont found much people also …people love to be there in front of the Idiot box (TV) and watching stupid things…)
I try to compare my schedule when I am in Bangalore and when I am at my home town.
Bangalore: Wake up early in the morning and do the necessary thing before rushing to office
Home town: Stay in the bed lazy and do day dreaming… wind will be flowing through the windows…some body will come and give you a bed tea the you slowly start your day
Bangalore: Check you mails, calendar for daily meetings /presentations. (Oops you might have skipped your breakfast)
Home town: Grab a news paper, Sit… Relax and go through that… When someone calls for breakfast then take your towel, go for a bath… (Here also you have options … either you can have the bath in the bathroom or you can go to the near by pond/river)
Bangalore: Go for a tea with your colleagues …intensive discussion on inflation, economy, our daily action plans, 20 20 cricket, endless list
Home town: some relatives will visit… Have a chit chat with them…mom will be making some home made snacks…Have it and go for a small walk in side your compound watching the trees …birds…etc
Bangalore: Lunch time… Still the same old topics and think as if you are the reason behind all the things happening in this world…your inputs are extremely important etc
Home town: Have a nice lunch with lot of side dish…some sweets at the end.. You will start feeling little sleepy… Go for a nap
Bangalore: Coming back from office… Long traffic jams… Your FM will be spitting something ridiculous or put some songs. If no dinner outing/party then you will reach home by 8…tired but still sit in front of the TV till you fell sleepy
Home Town: take a cup of tea. After that go to the place where your old pals who are still there in the village, playing volley ball or football… play with them… sit with them for a nice chat…comeback home… Have dinner with some chats with your near and dear… once finished take a book…Read it till you feel sleepy
Same person two different kind of life…

Last week I was there in Chennai. I had a very nice time even though the temperature was high. In the evening I went to the beach.
It’s a long time I visited a beach. My camera was not with me so I missed some shots there. Looking at the waves I felt like they were speaking to me. I sat there for sometime.I felt like scribbling…
Like a dolphin I want to swim
Like a wave I want to rise
I felt the freshness of a sunrise
I felt the calmness of a sunset
I saw a lonely girl sitting nearby
Tears filled her eyes like pearls
I started walking back
Thinking about her in my mind
Scattered thoughts filled my way
From a distance I looked back
She was sitting really far
Like a lonely boat in the endless Ocean

I called one of my friends today. These days I am having very busy schedules and couldn’t even get time for proper sleep. He scolded me and said you are not taking care of your friends. You got attitude!!!(I think I have a right attitude but I am sure, I don’t have the same what he is mentioning, wrong attitude)
Evening another friend called me and we had a long chat. He told me about some web sites which are worthy reading and about some other stuffs. He never complained that I never called him, I forgot him etc…
Where is the problem now? Is that me? Is that someone’s perception?
I think this is purely how you take things. You can assume that the glass is half empty or you can assume that the glass is half filled.
Then I thought what a friend is. I felt scribbling the same…
Someone who can shine your day
Someone who can make you smile
An inspiration for a dreamer
A pillar for a lonely heart
Who will hold you tight
Who won’t let you fight
Who will stand like a light
When your roads are out of sight
Someone who can wash you tear
With his lovely words and care
Like waves, faces come and go
Like rocks, friends are here to stay

I saw this picture in flickr. The name given for the same is
Chove sobre mollado. Its a nice piece of work. I love to call this a perfect rain.
I can hear the thunder roaring
I can see the wind blowing
I can feel the drops pouring
I can catch the hail falling
Walking under the street light
It is a perfect rainy night
