How I wish I stick to my promise of blogging day in day out,/..but alas the 3.5 hours of daily power cut eats directly unto my bloging schedule,....

I am reminded of the locus of control concept, taught as part of the basic course curriculum of standard OB course in MBA classrooms across,......should I attribute this to the harrowing power cuts or to my own inertia??,.....or to a combination of both??.........hope this delicate question is answered,.....hoping other readers of this blog help me with finding an answer to this,.....hoping I find enough motivation in me to post as often as I promised,.....its dour and dull and its as grim as it looks,......through the mind's crystal ball,....as I gaze,.......just very unappealingly dry and serious,.....very very sombre to even put off the most optimistic of blog readers away from this one,....I hope, in truest of all my earnest and sincere wishes...... the scenario changes,....It just cant be my blog,....so uncharacteristically inorganic almost being to the point of being robotic, machine like and truly corporatish, with the coldest of stone hearts and icy nerves,.......

Why is it that I cant feel a thing??,.....why is it that its such a grim picture I paint???.....why is it that I am losing all hope and optimism in life??,.....cant be me,......has never been me,....I have been in these situations earlier, except that it never threatened to loom for such a large period of time,......the facade of an optimistic man is still on,....but this one is dissimilair to all the earlier versions of it all,.....its only much evolved and matured,........I wish I find my touch back, I wish I find my purpose back, I wish for the materialization of all the positive thngs in life I have dreamt of,........I wish sincerely it also reflects in my blog too..........hoping in al earnest that this blog sees the bright and cheerful side of things again,...and real soon too............

4. you get used to hear a lot of @#$% from the profs who simulate a harvard like feel to a govt run school in the corner of your road...

5. you get used to endless rigor mortis...man you are the most patient of all the managers...a delight really!!

6. you slug out more than an IIM grad and would beat him in his own den ...any given day!!....

7. you perform out of your skin each day..

8. you get used to really inventive and innovative @##$ that churns out of nowhere...

9. you realise that your neighbour's dof is more creative and original than ur prof..

I know people could be sycophants, nincompoops.., but none worse than this...A monkey's been caged in exile for the last five years just because its bitten a little kid from another community..., and has been raised by a family from the majority community.........it just cant get more dastarrdly than this!!!!!!!!!!!....

How can a poor hapless creature disturb communal harmony????? It just doesnt make any goddamn sense!!!!!!!...this is just sheer foolishness and extreme ruthlessness on part of the authorities concerned.., without even the slightest regard for the value of life of an innocent creature...

Now what have the authorities achieved by keeping the animal in social isolation/????...Heaven??????....People have not just lost thier friggin minds but also their hearts!!!!!!!!!!..............

God ...if you are there.....please enlighten these faithfuls!!!!!!!!!!!

I have never been into the theatre and the histrionics kinda stuff ever before...thi is is like my first time,...

th dialogue has been initiated..., but what do i do next?????...

may i ask the intelligentsia of da community here to help me with.....i guess i cd,...and just hoping in the sincere earnest that it hasnt transgressed any of the community rules here.....

"the war has begun, they ve started it....am in no mood whatsoever to make truce.....even if am temporarily displaced temporallly to make some kind of concessions...,

i shall make sure that it doesnt happen....for am determined enuff not to waver again...and fall into tha bait again....

the hammer's blow shall be the hardest for all of them now...who have pushed me over from time....to time.., the transformation has been undergone..., the familiar friendlty face of the man of yore is gone....

there shall be no mercy shown at all..., for i shall recieve none of it...., i will prevail upon them...because i am above all of them.....justice shall be done unto them....

time has now arrived for to show the world..of the steel i am made of..., for years have i forgotten them and frgiven them...the time for them has run out...the time of theirs has run out and that of mine has begun...the ephemereal joys of their little and insignificant victories.., is of no consequence or use to me...., the mind of mine is far greater than thiers...., i shalln now demonstrate to them the powers of mine..., and boastful they may thibk of me attitude..., bad attitude they may name me..., devil may care about that......

if they have let me down..inspite of showeringf them with so many opportunities...i shall have as many of them...to shame them all....and i swear that i will do it...and make them realise the costly folly of having played..irresponsible and callous games with me...., i shall let them all down... i shall really wreak havoc upon them..., bt like a phoenix out of ad ashes i shall rise above all of them....i care not abt the relatioons i hav with the peers...the false reality in which i ws living has been strippd naked now..., the truth ahs exposed itself.....

It really has been a while now.., since I had atleast read on lj.., let alone post one here.

Well.., it has been a very hectic month.., being part of the alumni meet organizing committee, has its own share of responsibilities, add to it the rigour of the academics(hardly worthy in any given case though), mindless exams which do not add any value whatsoever, quiz club, this club , tht club, blah blah and blah...one really does become a supr burn out.

In lower rung institutions like the one.., theres always problems of finances, so the whole lot of admin work need to be done by the students themselves..it becomes really hectic- theories of motivation, commitment etc.., do not hold good at all. They are only meant for discussions in the class room, after that ..consigned to the dust bins..thats it!!!..Its pathetic and hopeless, but cant help it..The onus is on the handful of those who reaaly burn thier !@#$ out..

In this case..was among those select few..lol....so what happens to me??...I become a burn out, lose my sanity, mumble gibberish in front of the audience, when I have to make a deep impact..make a dunce out of myself...so much for working so hard!!!...

Aug. 15th, 2006 @ 12:30 pm The Rape of Natural Resources
Current Location: Home
Current Mood: annoyed

The issues confronting us today are not just the ones that are political in nature. They are merely trivial issues if one would compare them to the clear and moreimportant issues that are staring us in the face.

Natural resources being plundered does rankle the hell out of me. It really does leave me with a very disillusioned feeling. Why on Earth do people not reralise the simple logic that if they keep raping the resources, exhausting everything thats there on this planet, they would completely turn this planet into a wasteland???

We already have seen glimpses of what kind of havoc nature can wreak upon humankind. I do not have to cite examples for it. I believe that the intelligentsia of the planet can comprehend what I am speaking of.

Its just bullshit after all, if I would say that we are doing anything for the country after all. If ever there are actions being taken....where are the funds for the renewable energy projects?? subsidies for solar energy/ other hitech equipment? Where is the darned fuel celll that was developed aeons ago? Where are the funds for the development for the sustainability of organic life forms else where in the Universe??.....No, we simply do not have any answers for these because there never has been ever a development in that direction.

Sustainable Development is just another fashionable term consigned to the a/c conference halls...thats it...I do not have any problem with the development of hitech gadgetry and the consumption of resources...I am for it..becaue it helps in the improvement in the standard of living of homo sapiens everywhere...but where I do have a problem is that whatever is being taken away is not being repalced back. We already are on an irreversible path to destruction..there is no way to mitigate the losses suffered...the only way I see that there would be a solution to this would be for all natons to rise above thier menial, parochial mindsets to unite ....pool in resources necessary which would diverted into meaningful research directed at sustenance of organic life forms elsewhere outside this planet...just as the great Carl Sagan had visualised...But alas!!! That never is the situation because we as a human race never try to rise out of our stupid, nincompoopish, parochial mindsets; we fail to see beyond today and we are only neck deep in muck...squabbling about nonsensical issues such as religion, caste and other stupid ideological crap...which would serve humankind no good.

This is one of my personal favourites...my first ever poem...had previously published it on yahoo too..but cant resist the temptation of posting it here..k...folks read on....

Wavering heart..
lost in the unbound land of dreams,
chasing rainbows across soft green lands,
the smell of rain drops on the red earth...
lost in time,lost in dreams....
the experience, a treasure that was...
wake up ministrel,
for the wavering heart....has met the mind.
