Choices, Questions and Answers.



Life is this infinite loop of choices, questions and answers.
Choices which you take define you, make you what you are and distinguish you from others. Others here refers to the other inhabitants of this world who also might have chosen that same path which you chose at one point or are choosing right now. Sometimes choices are made under pressure and we keep giving excuses like "I didn't have a choice" but all of us need to understand that even if you didn't have a choice, you did make one eventually. You chose the path which you thought is the 'most convenient  at that very point. So, now if you've made that choice then take responsibility for it. One of my friends told me this and I tell this to everyone and to myself that never 'regret'. Never ever should you be crying over the choices you made which might've played a role in get  you to wherever you are.
Questions are infine themselves. If we go into that chain of thought we can create a whole new world of it, of questions and mazes and puzzles which will keep us occupied throughout or whole life. The whole purpose of our existence is a very big question. If we fall into this loop we either just might keep exploring all our lives and become oblivious to all the other things that happen. The weather, the time, day or night, nothing would matter. Only one thing would exist and look clear and real and that would be questions. Questions which you ask to yourself, to the world, to science, to god, to man, to the creator, to the genetics, to circumstances, to choices, to the air, the wind, the water and life. These questions will entangle you into the cobwebs of other questions which would erupt as soon as you would move deeper into the process of finding the answers to those questions.
So your life would might just make you end up with all of those great people who by asking questions have made a name for themselves. The list starts from Adam who asked himself weather to eat the apple or not and ate it making a choice after asking a question to Newton who questioned the falling of an apple and made one of the most significant discoveries in human history. All of these great people asked questions and made choices, choices to learn and choices to explore are there sitting tight in their hall of fame. They are immortal in one sense that their name still goes on without any effort, they still live after being released from the chains of mortal life.
Answers are what you find on your journey and I can't elaborate on that because the journey is yours and so are the questions, so how can I know the answers?
All I have to say is that think, think before you make a choice, before you ask a question,before you know an answer. Know where your choices would lead you, if its a gamble, let it be but know that it is and it might take you anywhere it wants to. As they say about questions, "Ask the right questions and you just might find enlightenment." and about answers, "Ask questions only when you want to know the answers, the answers which you can handle. The answers you want to handle." Because one thing that I have realised in my life is that no one talks about a failures but success stories are what make the news. You never know how many have failed with the answer, asking the wrong questions, making the wrong choices, finding the wrong answers.
Towards the end, its your choice. Either to find answers to your questions or move in the same straight line which leads you one destination where every man reaches at the end. Death. Without any questions, without any answers and with choices of others.

The Startup Syndrome (Internet)

Disclaimer: This article is not to discourage or malign the ongoing internet based companies or startups. It is an opinion.  'Startup' should actually be the word of this decade. Since the start of this millenia we have seen a new buzz in the youth allover, 'Startup'. With companies ready to invest in ideas which might revolutionize the world and get them some good returns. But we've experienced the biggest wave of these after the current decade started. With the success of ongoing startups as inspiration, more and more individuals and group decided to try their hand at starting something of their own.  "Who wants to work under a boss, when you can be your own boss?" this was what I always heard from some budding entrepreneurs. Some are doing it for the drive, some for the passion, some for the adrenaline rush and some are just doing it because they want to discover. Now out of all of these startups a huge majority is inclined towards one ...

Four liners - Music and connections

While lsitening to FKJ  on repeat and talking to an old friend (who just boomeranged back into my life), I thought of how I connect with music and feel so fluid in its presence. I don't listen to music for the lyrics most of the times but just for how it makes me feel, I am generally not able to put it to words but the endvevour is to find those words and out them up in bold . While writing this and publishing this atleast 7 times, I realised how crappy the blogger app on mobile is. I am so disappointed. Sigh . Coming back, here are the two small pieces I could get through to. Drowning and gurgling  I want to drown myself in music, Feel the waves it creates inside me, Move myself through its viscous meaning, Only if I could express it as I feel it. This one is a bit special because this comes from a text that I wrote to my friend and went back to myself saying - Damn, I am like the Jawed Akhtar for this shit. Anyway, the next one is derived out...

Finding Her. (Inspired by the movie Her)

I am in love! I fell in love with the woman who understands me and is just the right one. She knows what I know and what I want her to know, she asks me the right things and knows how I will react to those. She knows when I'm off or excited. She's the one I've been calling each day, the one who's in touch with me, without touching me. She's possessive and yet I have all the space I need. I love her and she loves me, that's kinda all that I need. Who is she? She's my operating system. Yes!Cara, to you is just an operating system, but to me, she's everything! She lives on my system, breathes with me while I go out for runs, schedules my meetings, pays the bills at times, I do it myself as well. She's everywhere. She's on my watch, notifying me that I'm running late, she's on my phone, showing me things I need to go through, things I care about and maybe the most important thing is that she talks to me! Yes! And her voice is music to m...
