Resolutions And All That Jazz

An event less week in office was accompanied by a rather lethargic Saturday. Very little, if at all, has changed in the last one year for me. But if I have to look beyond that, I probably wouldn't be able to relate to it now.

"Change is an essential part of life."
"Everything happens for the best".
I've heard this too many times and to be honest I am not really a fan of the 'eventual happiness'. All that does is instill some kinda false hope, an expectation that things will, hopefully one day, be alright. This thought is drilled into our heads since a very early age. Most of us go about achieving it in our own ways but not all really know the finish line, let alone reaching it.

Today I felt something I have known for sometime but haven't had the time or willingness to accept it. I have learnt the art of being a journeyman and taking pleasure in not knowing the finish line. I don't recognize people by their actions, I rather experience them and move on. The same old people that have been a part of my life continue to intrigue me; the newer ones keep me interested. I might be digressing a little from the topic here but I wanna write down this part for future reference, lest I go another path later. At least I will have written proof that I, for once, walked this path too.But I think I am here to stay for sometime, I like being in this domain than anywhere else. It's simple, convenient, allows me to be more lazy, pretty much lays to rest all the possible doubts. Yep. I seem to have found my comfort zone.

Off-late I have found many interpretations to that. A friend of mine says I've lost it. Another says I am taking time off (pretty long I must say). But it's alright really. This is the best thing, it's all good. Oh yeah I almost forgot. "You've become a stone" hehe. That's alright too mikey!
I am looking forward to seeing how this churns out. May be next year this time should be a good breakpoint, I might find myself in yonderland but then what the heck! This is way better than those new year resolutions that people keep forcing me to stick too. Stick too? Seriously! There are those who want me to stick to something I have never made in the first place. With all due apologies, not my cup of tea. Jan 26th. Hopefully I will remember the breakpoint.
For the countrymen, Happy Republic Day!

I be.

As the wise man said:

'We havw what we havw."

And that point about laziness. Strikes a deep chord inside me.

Thanks for putting it in words, my friend.
