On My Mind

In what can be termed as the biggest leak of this millennium, Wikileaks has reported of 2 people following Champions League T20 this year. This has taken the entire nation by storm. As quoted in the leaked report, " The Champions League is being followed by exactly two people, who happen to be friends. These two people have been traced by their IP addresses and are from India." The report goes on to name the two individuals, Aakash and Bhagyesh, who meanwhile are having a tough time explaining this embarrassing action of theirs to their friends and family.  While Aakash's mom is in utter disbelief and refuses to believe her son could go to such an extent in his blind love for cricket, Bhagyesh has been dumped by his girlfriend who couldn't cope up with this crazy side of his.

You learn to savour the private moments even with your room mate around. Your birthday snap looks like a ...

I tried to be in their shoes sometimes and see everything around me. Obviously, I couldn't keep this exercise unbiased but I did learn that life is a marvelous thing. You never realize the impact you make in other lives with each little action of yours. As I grew up, I stopped doing it. It happened unconsciously, something I didn't realize except for today when I delved way too deep into my thoughts. Life happens to you and you never realize it. You never know what it is like to be living with yourself, how do your friends tolerate you and so many more things. At this point in time, when I look back at all those things which happened to me, they seem so justified.  The guy who rejected me in the interview, the friend who ditched me, they all seem to have a reason when I look at things from thei...
