In Pursuit

A while away, i whiled away

to chase the moving puck

i raced to the edge and tipped over.

i got back in and straightened up

to chase the moving puck.

Two years since I kissed comfort, safety, a good bye, atleast so far.

Journey in a startup has not been forgiving thus far. 

It is a pursuit, a search to find meaning. 

To be born as humans with ability to think, 

to rationalize and ideate is a great gift.

greater and rarer is the ability to find one's calling 

lo! behold, he's a misfit.

greatest and rarest it is, 

to translate to reality, to give meaning to thoughts, 

tangible as they be.

It is a pursuit, a search to find meaning.

                                     

thoughts on thought

how many times do we see, that there is no difference of an inch in what we think and what we see.

There are so many actions that I am guilty of; very few I take pride in, I find in the zero sum analysis i thought them all. I fed thoughts with life and energy, and they manifested. There were no surprises.

Animated and expressive person as i am, i make a fool of myself when i see some eventuality, and realize that it was already thought out.

I find it surprising, how i feed energy to a thought, till it expresses in physical form. This dis-illusion re-affirms that thought indeed is real. All external things are manifestations of the thought.

So must be the case with each one of us.

We all have our own unique world and each of us has created it for himself/herself by his/her unique thoughts and the energy fed to it.

Our interactions with the world are but physical manifestations of our thoughts.

So if we think greatness or think downfall, either ways it is right.

I had half-hearted faith in this idea. and never really paid much attention, even after having read long long back the "the alchemist"-Paulo Cohelo, until I experienced. 

So I would continue to believe that we indeed can; and we alone can create and shape the world around us, through conscious thoughts, and enable unique unaltered manifestation of our thoughts.
Good or Bad, they are there and they are right. Always.

Things to do

Things to do. They get all guns pointed. They burn all bridges. They inspire.

My things to do...

Although, i do not remember how limitless i was feeling to write them down, the feeling is still there.

Few of the  'Things to do' have changed and have transpired into more meaningful goals.
Each day getting back to this list gives me an affirmative.
There is also an awareness when there would be negatives days on end. I'll know it's time to change then

Till then.... it is very much happening

TEDxMumbai @ Bluefrog Part-1

Some days you wish never end. You wish they go on an on and on.
Today TEDxMumbai @Bluefrog was definitely on of them, where I just soaked in everything that I could like a sponge.

Though I will not elaborate much about the speakers and the entire day's happenings, the videos would be uploaded soon on TED page but would put down points that I jotted in my diary. Did somebody check out the live feeds that were available for free???

Morning:
The first session was about "Hopes and Dreams"-- Obama's listening!!!
First speaker for the day, Viren Rasquina started off li'l nervously and shared his insights on India's potential to be Olympic gold winning machine. He captured the audience with this "It takes only 6 grams worth of gold to lift a nation".. still feel my hair standing on end..
