Suddenly realized that it has been awfully long since I wrote anything. It has actually been really long that any thought compelling enough entered my mind and that I picked up my laptop and started typing. No doubt the past few months have been a little rough and that my mind has been a little unstable. Hundreds of thoughts would have entered and exited my mind during this period but I never tried to hold on to any of them for long enough to build it into something concrete. But then who said I could write only when I had a real heavy philosophy to boast of? I never signed on this scribbling pad in the cyber space with a promise that each post of mine has to have some substance. Its purpose was just to preserve the ripples that form in my mind… so that is exactly what I am doing right now.
Sometimes we forget the real purpose of things and attach more than necessary importance to trivialities. Things that were introduced for pleasure become compulsion, things that were for recreation become competition… and then we start crying that life isn’t fun anymore.
Life is simple, why not keep it that way and try being a little impulsive at times even if the outcome is a stupid concoction of words that runs across three paragraphs but still says nothing :)

Hummm..Well….with me...Things work differently...
Usually, I don't have many thoughts exiting or entering in the mind…somehow, I tend to see only one thing at a time...
However, I totally agree with you that one should keep the life simple.
In your words, it is giving the un-due importance to the trivial things in the life that makes the life difficult, well, but in my words it is the cravings or lust that really makes the things complex…..
Enjoy the journey not the destination….In other words, don't let the obsession of end results to overpower the fun of the journey…..
Otherwise, you will never know when your passion became obsession , and when your obsession became lust.
It's funny that it happens quite often, and it tremendously clouds our judgment. We are no more objective because our judgment is clouded by the fear of losing or joy of winning. People tend to lose the calm of the mind, and they either over react or just hastily take the reckless decision.
