my happy ending


There's this unaldulterated sort of piety in happiness.
Robert Frost said: "happiness makes up in height what it lacks in length!" so true ..
and according to me ..nothin brings more happiness than accomplishment..
losing meself in work and than seein the flourishin results make my day!

alrite...so today was a realy good day..did i say good..neah...amazinn :)

as a result of a series of unfortunate events that i underwent last year [ i like puttin in movie titles to express meself]..i had become almost averse to happiness..u know..the type of people who dun really want to be upbeat cz they've gotten so frustrated wid all the ..well.."persistent blues"..

as a matter of fact..i had developed a strong liking for normal days..i liked normal days..they made me feel ..umm..."normal"
but i still had that small teeny weeny inkling urge for joy..i totally belive in the phrase "a Journey of a thousand steps begins with the first"..i guess its a japanese proverb..
point is..i consider the followin as one of the worth taken first steps...
i participated in a "word war " of sorts today..it was actually a bunch of people ..around 50 of us..from good schools[i wanna make sure u guys KNOW that i din win laurels amongst a couple of fools]..we were supposed to address on various issues...more like an impromptu debate..to test our vocab and conversational skills and thought expression capability.

for instance...the proposed bill reagarding the people who've done grad in US gettin green cards..[cool]..and about how the steppin down of tony blair and the 'coronation' of sorts of gordon brown is gonna change the fate of britain..and whether schumacher is the god of all F1 drivers..yeah..he does have soem competion in ayrton senna[the poor fella died almost as soon as he began...god rest him in peace].but schumi still rules the podinum..whoever thinks alonso is good shud go fuk himself!
anyway..
so you would have inevitably grasped by now...i won!
i dominated the whole discourse and that is more important to me than anything else..i felt "my life is brilliant" and i forgot abt all the ill fated unfortunate happenings of the past..

i wonder how the tiniest of things bring me such immense pleasure..
may be its correctly said "happiness comes in small packages!" :)

here i would wanna add that i would solemnly testify for the excellent skills of my competitors..which include quite a lot of brainy asses!
just the way i like...
i mean what could be better than havin a bunch of people with who u can loiter around the streets of janpath singin "take it easy"[love eagles]..watch sickly awful bad ass stupid hindi sex comedies and laugh your ass off..have mississipi mud pie at mocha's [i never get the spellin of mississipi right! damm!] ..praise your own MACs and drool over everything "apple" and still talk about hemingway,coelho,wodehouse and dahl in the same breath!

this is my abso-fukin-lute idea of a purrfect company! though i always make a complete fool of myself among em..i mean they completely cannot get convinced how someone can be so dumb to have swallowed one full spoon of coffee...what am i? reatrded?
and i cannot bring myself to identify with any of raghav's weird fetish[whats the plural of fetish?] for computer lingos!! i m like illetrate through his eyes...
what the hell? just because i donno how to write programs in C++ and watev.. doesnt mean i dont have the right to live??
he totally crazily worshipd such langs and practicaly knows all teh existing ones...
I on the other hand just knw a few words...like.linux..java et cetera.[i hate etc...prefer the whole word]
i dont find them adorable but neither am i repulsed ..infact i really like the way the word "linux "sounds..
L-I-N-U-X. nice. i queerly like words ending in "x"
well..so
they're all great thinkers and even better doers!
plus WE all swear by CATCh 22!
thats a masterpiece by josepf heller for all those who dont know.

so to cut a long story short ...im blissful today! feel like a godess..
guess im flyin too high in self glory..hehe..its not like i've got admision in harvard!
plus discoverin a new song "stand by me" by ben .e. king (right udit..it was not by john lennon)(voila!) added to the felicity! people..stand by me is an extremely heart winnin number..the kind of song u can just hum along while strummin your guitars even when u don know m of music!

all this while..there has been a recuuring thought in my mind..why does "kiss me" have such weird lyrics? talkin of weird lyrics..some of U2's songs take away the trophy[i love U2.period.]on that account...ive never really understood what actually is the concept of the song "with or without you"..though i'm hopelessly in love with it!
anyway..so what does avril wanna tell us ..
"Swing me ..upon it's hanging tire,
Bring bring..bring your flowerhat..we'll take the trail marked on your
father's map..." [?????] :/
but i agree that the song is simply ecstatic!


well..i realised somethin today..its all in our hands..how we feel..our happiness should never depend on anyone..expectations seriously bring misery!
its I who decides what happens in my life... how will i fill the blank? greys or pinks? i assume u understand here that greys's for sorrow and pink for happiness.[Sometimes, things just don’t make sense. Nonsensical ]

on this contented blissful note..i end it here.
now i'll go and read one of the regulars..i guess ill do one of dahl's today..simply awwwsum he is!
wait..i have even developed this new habit of speakin and writin like yoda...the green fellow frm star wars..r'ber?
hmm..nice thing it is.
now go..i must!
hehe.. :D

err...i use too many brackets ...dont i?? [bear with me] ;)

PS another happy stuff...blogger introduces automatic saving today...so next time when the comp blows up or there's some darn electricity problem..i wont have to worry!!! wowwww!
PPS todays's a good day for bubble bath! :P

UDit said...

yeah... agree with ya, amazing it is to find ppl who u can relate to, have conversations abt stuff u enjoy... shit yaar, i seriously hope i find such ppl in college!!
Nice post...u do well! don't really know the feeling of being a winner, as success goes to my head many times, and 'coz its all relative, and in the words of bertrand russell, "joy to someone brings correlative pain to others". Happiness is a state of mind, people are known to find happiness in the smallest of things, like while travelling in a DTC bus ;) or just observing other ppl, or just absorbing the beauty of a magnificent flower or tree... its all kewl! Half the joy in getting somewhere is in the journey itself!
