Egalitarianism

I am not in the process of writing about the searing issues.. neither do I intend to tell u about some raw facts which cease to exist coz they were ignored.. There is so much to talk about and write about. There are only 1400 something tigers left, we should save paper n use mobiles, recent pune bomb blasts, the political leaders n their populist gimmicks....amidst these I chose to brood on 'egalitarianism' for a while.
I completely understand that the way 'our system' has taken us for granted, we have started to accept any thing on the card. we live with so many things we fail to accept.

My friends fight over the various cuisins they wanna dig at. some wud love chinese, some mexican, thai and indian. Some of the people I've met are not keen on ordering a specific cuisine coz it tastes good or smells awesome or is a delight to have but because it is stylish...or more formal...or it shows we have great taste. I believe food is meant for the taste buds n for filling stomach. No use talking about the lot for whom the concept of four square meal does not exist. Here I feel, food has no nationality...no rank or hierarchy to place. Let your taste buds decide what do u want to have..

I am very fond of dark chocolate...no matter how bad one's mood is I feel dark chocolate can easily change mood. But, I love other chocolate too. I love swiss chocolate, I love the honey dipped and carmel coated bars also, I love anything that has cocoa...coz my taste buds love cocoa...my olfactory nerves love the fragrance of dark chocolate, molten chocolate n cocoa. I do not like dark chocolate, coz it is 'very english'. I prefer an evening snack of muffins, cookies and coffee...only coz I love to.

We have easily wrenched out the original us and have been aping someone, chasing someone and being someone we are not. We want to be the star who endorses a product, or want to be a part/section which is on the top of pyramid.... we have said several times, 'there is equality, this is an egalitarian society' where we have equal rights, values and freedom.
Paradoxically, we are so different...top of the pyramid is so much different from the grassroot level....freedom, values, truth, love, triumph, malice, etc etc have diffent definition for each level of richest to poorest, most respected, revered to most hated and haves n have nots....the gap is huge like grand canyon. Buy it, we are so equal.....there is unity in diversity, aught to be more precise..... listening anyone??
Huge edifices in posh mumbai and the destitute defecating in the open.
Apparent anomalies in the econonmic, social and political strata.
The vehement opposition by maharastrian sena (shiv sena) to non maharastrians in their state..doesn't matter that their nationality is common- Indian.

I started with simpleton cuisine and various chocolates....how they have different levels, class and acceptance from people. Now u know why I wanted to write on egalitarianism? coz it does not exist n has become extinct , like dianosaurs and the way tigers will become in few years!

valentine what???

Hey, was just watching news and gathered that bajrang dal is still hell bent on finding out the glossy so much in love couples....shiv sena is finding the nook and crany of maharastra, so that they can get the couples tie the knot, and live happily ever after!

Years of corruption, red tapism, illegal money, etc etc has robbed them of their gentleness and compassion. Now they have so much time to happily live with terrorism, endless killings and incholate morality. Amidst that, they take out time to celebrate valentine's day! do not miss out on the ephemeral celebrations..

the brutality with which blasts r killing people is falling on deaf ears but one couple can not go unnoticed. they are dodging the glare of politics. aah!

This is my hegemony of standing against what bajrag dal does to v day celebrations; shiv sena does 2 non maharastrians-counting how many non maharastrians r still here & what the terrorists are doing- killing innocents.

My sincere advice 2 them, 'GET A LIFE'.

life is like this

oh no m not writing about the life stuff or slickier concepts, thoughts or ideas... it can just be an unusual  rambling, an unsaid or maybe  ill expressed thing or just a drawn out narration.
what usually comes to your mind if u have to describe ur life in just one word. i went ummmmm, can't say, donno, maybe ....... lot of words came to my mind.
angel said, 'megalomaniac' is the word for her. i thot is it so easy to describe your life in one word..now what about me huh? dunno too early to use heavy words for the little head of mine.
but m not sure whether the manifold things my life encompasses can come under the canopy of a single word...

so what does ur mind or heart says? can u tell me a word which describes your life completely?

put on ur thinking hats ;)

dots and dashes

could not certainly think of anything else...

second tired of reading/writing social issues, filched recycled stuff or yet another travelogue. I was wondering in the broad daylight why on earth do we suffer from restlessness, especially when we are looking for jobs....monster, naukri, linkedin...too much to prod on!!
sick n tired of calling up people, references, Ms. n Mr. (s) recruiters n consultants....Gawd, am i lost in cyberspace.....

last thing on my mind is shopping, reading etc etc...i do not crave for chocolates n coffee...coz i use them for relief from stress, un-eas-iness, guffawing, frowning, evil n odd..

such mundanities..who says market is better?? go flush urself...

Conscience hurts when other parts of ur body feels great

It was last week when I talked to him. Oh no... no one special, just a friend who works in Delhi and called after quite some time. I had to mention him in my blog coz the kinda conversation we had made me speechless, not because it was gross or shocking or jarring or blah blah...but due to lack of context and contemplation....
This has nothing to do with indian politics..i know a lot of us feel estranged coz it takes us for granted..or nothing is right..or has not served the purpose yet..whatever!

My idea of writing this is only coz of the day to day hassles, one feels in their personal life; coz you look for some answers to the questions you can never ask. I know u do not feel strange, but just think about this.....
It was chilly..too cold to venture out and he was sitting warm in his blanket....suddenly his colleague turns up. She is cold as one can be in their grave. And she has come to discuss work. But her condition is bad and guess what the good guys will do. Make her feel warm, give her something to drink and doing every possible thing to change her pale grey skin tone. And with that helplessness, that plot, circumstances.
The seductive mustiness and come hither play (created by God) or maybe God is testing u..He is ...can two people ignore it? Yes...No...Maybe yes..maybe no...I do not know.
My friend succumbed to it...

Now I know that my friend feels guilty coz he is already engaged with another great friend of mine. And she is least aware of the infidelity...not infidelity but a mistake....but i feel strange on how easily small mistakes, infidelity, extra n pre marital affairs, side affairs, office interests have mingled and amalgamated with 'relationships'.
The couples are happy with each other...not sorry about whatever is done, was done....damage is already done....past is dead, bury it..live the present....that is what he said when he narrated and said he wanted to confess this to me.
He feels guilty..but is not sorry.
He wanted an outlet to release the thoughts, he's been taming all the while.
'conscience hurts, when other parts of your body feels great' - i read it somewhere and now i know why did he call.
