The Road Less Travelled

I am in love with this photo…

i had no plans for this weekend..but this photo changed everything…after watching this i felt its long time i had a long drive…

i dont have a car now.. what to do?shall i go with my bull…hmm lets go with somebody so it will good if you feel like party also… couple of phone calls …wow good result… the plan is ready…

Saturday afternoon we will go for a drive…the destination ….unknown…

lets follow the words which i read somewhere “ I travel not to go anywhere, but to go.  I travel for travel’s sake.  The great affair is to move”

Evening thoughts…:-)

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…

Beach

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

The Road Less Traveled…One of my most inspiring lines

Perfect Rain

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

Photography…

I love photography. Even though I don’t get enough time to learn more about that I wanted to be a photographer along with my current job (I love my job that much…). I don’t know why, the kind of feel you get when you hold your camera is amazing. It’s like winning a deal. A deal with your own thoughts… 

The complete thing feels like a poem to me. You hold your camera. Slowly pointing to something what you like. Then you try to imagining your shots and its output. (That’s the best part. well before the photo comes it will be there in your mind…) Adjusting the lighting (I still don’t know how to do that properly) Then slowly adjust your lenses till you get what you want. Take a deep breath and …..Click!!! 

That’s it!!! Check your LCD display; you can see your accomplishment. One more treasure to your album…Your mind fills with a sweet feeling which says you did something which is really satisfying you… 

Pack you bag… Start your vehicle…hum a song which you like. You are on the way for the next scene…

I love it!!!

Lost

It was a perfect evening. i decided for a long walk.while walking I realized that I am feeling loneliness!!!! I also noticed that this kind of feelings come only in the evenings when I don’t have any work or any other thins to do. I mean if am idle. Is that happen to everyone like me who dreams a lot? i have everything in my life. But still some times i fell that i lost something…somewhere…

i am lost…

i can feel the pain

i can’t see any gain…

i lost my way..

i can’t find my home…

Scattered thoughts and blowing wind..

Confused mind and endless plans..

Why the truth is so weak?

Why the grief is so strong?

Why the facts are so clear?

Why the dreams are so fade?

i search for an answer..

But…i am lost…

Colorful Life

i had a very strange experience last week. i was traveling and part of that i had to travel by train. i reached the railway station and saw my train there .. i was boarding from the starting station so the train was empty and it just came to the platform. I rushed to my coach and placed my languages there. i was alone since am there well before the departure time. The lights were not switched on in the train… 

While sitting as a guard for my valuables i noticed a man who is there couple of seats away from me. I couldn’t see his face since there was no power. He was arranging his things for that days bread ( oh ya !!!He sells small things like lock, chain etc to the passengers for living). i just casually asked him about the electricity and without any hesitation he told me that the lights will be there in another 5-10 minutes.. 

Slowly passengers started coming and in the meantime the power came. I got some good company and thought that it is going to be a good trip.. 

After some time i saw the same person again.. He was selling some locks to someone. I felt like i got a slap on my face. He was blind. And i was asking him about light… 

i couldn’t resist myself.. While he passed me i asked: 

baba, i am sorry that i asked you about light. You could have told me that you can not see anything. Then why you gave me an answer.. 

He told me: 

This railway station is my home for almost 20 years. I know each and every train with their timings and my mind keeps a track of everything… my world is what i listen and not what i see… don’t worry my life is as colorful as yours. If possible give me some coins…

I Travel…

Last few days I was traveling…the same will continue this week as well..

I am not getting any time to scribble. But i am enjoying a lot… Because these business travels are fun… You wont see the same place or same face again in one trip..

Meeting new people…listen to their ideas. The questions they ask.. My answers… i feel that i am learning more and more. May be better than reading a book…

Though you wont be enjoying much as a tourist… Even business trips got its own sweetness…

As i read somewhere once…

i travel with my thoughts..

i travel with my pen..

i travel with my voice..

i travel with my hope..

i travel different places

Mix with different races…

For’ll always be marveled

Whenever I travel
