not a morning person

31 Dec

I woke early one morning, 

The earth lay cool and still 

When suddenly a tiny bird 

Perched on my window sill. 

 

He sang a song so lovely 

So carefree and so gay, 

That slowly all my troubles 

Began to slip away. 

 

He sang of far off places 

Of laughter and of fun, 

It seemed his very trilling 

Brought up the morning sun. 

 

I stirred beneath the covers 

Crept slowly out of bed, 

Then gently shut the window 

And crushed his fucking head. 

 

I’m not a morning person

 
 

2-D barcodes

27 Dec

Hey – check this out. Its my personal visiting card, encoded in a 2-D barcode. If you have a barcode reader (on your Nokia mobile etc.) you can just scan it and see my details in a jiffy. On my Nokia E71, it gets scanned in about two seconds and can be directly saved as a new contact.

Methinks the next time I have a batch of visiting cards printed, this should go on the back. Cool.

i’m grateful

26 Dec

The year is winding down to an end and with hardly a handful of days left of this eventful year, i thought i’d do a quick rundown of all that i have to be thankful for.

the beginning of the year was as scary as it gets – what with mum being quite ill, aryan being very ill etc. 

i am thankful to the good lord for helping me survive through the crises. for teaching me that we have to let go and trust the forces of nature before nature turns around to help you. faith – thats the key.

i am grateful for the boost to my professional ego. grateful that i was able to once again prove myself to myself. grateful that i was able to live life once again on my own terms. 

grateful that i was able to turn the pain and sorrow of my father’s leaving into a positive force. grateful that his memories and his words keep guiding me and helping me distinguish right from wrong.

grateful that he lives on in my heart and forgives me when i go wrong and helps me get back on the right path.

grateful for those members of my family who have stood by me when i have needed them. grateful to all those who have accepted me for who i am and have not tried to make me that which i am not. grateful that i sleep each night with a clear head and a light heart.

grateful that i was able to shed kilos of fat and tonnes of negativity.

grateful for friends, for family and for others who had a kind word for me.

grateful that the unkind cuts of those i thought were closest to me, could not make me bitter or cynical.

grateful for the lovely song “jo bhi pyaar se mila, hum ussi ke ho liye
