Dance single forever..

Okay..... so what do i write bout today...
Lemme go back to my kiddo days again.. Like when i was in the 3rd standard or so..
Our annual day was nearing... we were all set for a performance...
A dance performance.. couple dance..
I dont remember how many of us were there.. but 8 or so for sure.. n seeing the old pic i ve i recognize Ijaz, Sithara, Shiju, Rose.. and some others.. and of course me..
My partner was Preethy i remember...
We practised for days and days together.... Dont remember the song..
We cut classes.. we had zero hours.. breaks.. all and all..
it was always practice practice pratcice...
Our excitements helped us through all the hard work...
Oh.. did i mention i was playing a boy...
Well i had my hair cut short.. so it was easy to pass me off as a boy..
We got ready our clothes.. the girls all got custom made frocks.. in red and black..
The boys and those playing boys all had to get their costumes fixed.. blue or black jeans and red shirt or t-shirt.
All set..

The day came... super excitement.
We all gathered together... Head count...
Yes, yes, yes... hey wheres Preethy???
Shes missing..
Maybe shes late..
Lets get on with the preparations...
And the news comes.. Preethys gone to.. umm... i think Chennai...
But wherever... shes gone.. she had to go..
last minute decision or so..
Wow.. great.. Whom do you suppose i dance with now..?
What??? put me out..??? Oh no, Oh no...
Yes.. i m not being put out..then???
What?? I dance alone?? Without a pair???
By myself??? The couple dance???
But How..???

Well.. i managed it all so fine..
It was funny.. but it turned a hit...
All i had to do was hold out my hand and move them inside and out... and groove to the music..
and i was placed in the centre front... Oh Wowwwwww..
so i wouldnt look odd placed elsewhere.. It would look pre-planned if the centre dances alone and just moves..
Super cool....

Well that was the best couple dance i ever had... ever....
Tanx Preethy.. Tanx...

Power

18-05-2010
Tuesday.

Cool na.. giving dates to junk makes it look all formal and journal like. I likey. I m in the living room. Sitting on the floor. Sipping on Milk with honey... With the lappy. Sorry bro, I stole it from yer room. Typing away for fun. Why is it that typing is harder than writing..? Thoughts flow better onto pen than on the computer???? Why???? Well thats nothing that should matter me for now. Whats the unfortunate topic of my blog today??? Power.

POWER.
Power is Earth. Power iss Sky. Power is everything. Our mere existance itself is Power. Power of Life. Power is Everything. Everything is Power. Think about it. Why do we do the things we do?? Its either to claim or earn Power or to prove or show Power. We speak to show our power over our speech and our thoughts. We think coz we have the power to do so. We walk on the power of our legs. We hear coz we have the power to do so. We die when Death overPOWERS Life.
Ok take little little things like the way we drive our vehicles, why we overtake, the importance we give to studies and our positions in class and for some the carefree attitude they show towards studies, the way we work or not work be it at office or at home, the way we stay out of home with friends or away from everybody, the way our mood changes or our attitude changes, the way we hurt someone with words, with actions,everything.. everything is dependant on the power we want or want to prove. Power isall that matters. Its all that lives. Be it the Power of Money, Love, Emotions, Relations, Sentiments, Hate, Anger, be it Physical Power, Mental Power, Artistic, Linguistic whatever and wherever.... its all Power.

So where do we get this Power from????

Dogs came into being..

15-05-2010
Day??? Why would that matter... but for the record its Saturday.

Today was fine. Ok ok.. i m dampening the spirit. Today was great. I loved today. For one fact that it was not completely fruitless and boring. Today I went out with Vish to our all time haven Mall. It was just me and her. We went around laughing and joking all the time. We visited many shops.. tried on some clothes... commented on some.... ate a lot and settled down among books. It was the most peaceful feeling. Being among books. Even if i aint reading. Books give me a lot of happiness. They give me a sense of calm. Be it reading or writing.
Today we talked a lot. I was telling Vish what i know bout History of the Mughals. Junk i read up in a phase of over indulgement in learning bout the history of India. But hey its not junk. Its a part of the history of India. It is a part of what makes India.
Then Vish was telling me bout her study section.. on finance and mutual funds... and insurance.
Bout coffee and the food.. and the books.. and the kids..
It was all fun but intelligent kind of talk.
But the best was a story Vish read out for me from a book on dogs that i would like to share here.

How were Dogs made.

When Adam and Eve (that got us in a discussion as to how Eve was made out of a Rib taken from Adam.. and it bought up the question... if Eve was made from Adams rib.. then why is it that men still have 12 ribs just like women??? They are supposed to lack in one right???) consumed the Fruit of Sin.. (an Apple... I wonder why it is not a banned fruit since it is an apple that caused all the peace out of this was to be peaceful world. But where does Pandoras Box fit in then??? I ve heard all the bad things came out of that box.. ???), God banished them out of the Garden of Eden and made a set of animals to guard the Garden so as to keep them away. Of these pack, some animals followed Adam and Eve and some remained back as savage beasts. Seeing that some of the group He had created had befriended Adam and Eve, God was angry and questioned these animals. To this they replied that As God had not wanted them to be dead which if He had wanted He would have readily slained them instead He just banished them out of the Garden so that they would create another world for themselves that would resemble Eden (thats where we live I guess.. that means theres the real Eden somewhere lost and safe and guarded by the beasts.. all we have to do is walk to the end of the earth to get there..). We accompany them so as to keep them alive and also keep them away from the real Garden guarded by the other beasts.
The wild beasts that guarded Eden evolved to become wolves and the tamed friendly ones Dogs.
Thats how Dogs came into being.

Wow. Nice na???
