The overthinker

"Long time no see", perhaps this is how this blog would greet me today, if it was alive.

Yes, It has been a long time, I haven't been writing anything at all, unless it is work related. The habit isn't there, I have changed a lot in past many years. I think i forgot about this blog for a long time.

I wonder if it matters at all. who is reading this other than some friends, with whom I share the link of the posts. I think it doesn't matter, as long as I am able to write my feelings and convert my thoughts in visible words.

Words which are leaving me slowly, silently. I don't even know if I am an introvert or extrovert anymore. When I look in the past and present to compare, I see a lot has changed, a lot indeed. I feel like I am not what I used to be. But then again isn't it the key rule of life and time, it changes.

Sometimes I think, Have I accomplished something ? Am I happy ? Am I satisfied with what I have ?

Yes, I have accomplished something, more than something in fact. I am what I wanted to be, at least professionally, I am a good person at heart, or at least I think I am. I am happy, I am satisfied with everything in my life.

Unless, someone or something pushes me to think otherwise. Actually the thirst to achieve is over, now it is just an obsession. Obsession of earning and having materialistic objects. Can I give them up?, you might ask. Well, I don't think so, not until I have reasons to keep pushing.

There is a void lurking somewhere inside which is like a black hole hungry to gain more and more. Be it knowledge, money or social status. It's like an addiction, more you have more you crave. I am not sure how long I will be like this, but I am certain that this feeling is going to stick around in foreseeable future.

Am I "The Overthinker" ?
Umm, maybe, Yes, I think I am. I do think a lot and that too about any thing, relevant or irrelevant with my life. I don't know if it is a good or bad thing but I have always been like that.

Ha, Seems like I have run entire circle, as I started with I have changed a lot and now I am back to, I have always been like that. See, Overthinking again. :)

World outside the window

  Sitting near the window of my hotel room, I could see the full moon shining bright in the cold mountain night. Must be around 10 or 11 degrees. I could feel the light breeze on my face. Just looking outside the window, it was beautiful, even in the night.  A silent full moon night high up in mountains could be so beautiful and soothing. I felt like my mind was empty of all thoughts. Like naturally meditating with eyes wide open and looking out into silhouette of huge mountains, like staring into wast spread of nothingness.  I could see tiny lights twinkling on small buildings spread across the small town near Shimla, India. Sometimes when i came to senses, a sudden flood of thoughts streaming through the brain. How much we(humans) have progressed. How much nature had paid for our actions. Constantly digging the heart of mountain to make clearings for agriculture and buildings. Yet, nature is forgiving and let us be in peace.  Peace, which is perhaps pet word of my ...

Bachpan ki yaadein

kitna anmol waqt tha wo bhi, papa jab sham ko ghar aate the.. jeb me unki 1-2 rupye ke sikke khankhanate the.. kabhi kabhi khud pyar se humare haath me thamate the.. kabhi jeb se gir jane pe main or behan uthane ko daud jate the.. subha jaldi na uthne ko bahane banana, school na bhejne ko maa ko manana.. yaad hai mujhe bhot mar khate the..

Ajaadi - the feeling of caged bird

Main nanha sa ek panchi hu, mujhe kaid na kar mujhe udne de, tajj pinjre ki deewaaro ko, aakaash se mujhko bhidne de.. ye simte hue jo pankh mere, mujhe ek bar failane de, kabhi lambi saans to bharne de, aajaadi me ghul jaane de.. tu kya jaane mujhpe beeti, tu jaano ka saudaagar hai, jo sookh ke registaan bana, mere sapno ka wo saagar hai.. jo waqt mila hai jeene ka, mujhe khushio se khil jaane de, kar yaad kabhi apna bachpan, mujhko bhi wo pal paane de.. kuch khel hua fir kudrat ka, ek joro ka toofaan utha, na jaane kyu nanhe dil me, ek soya hua armaan jaga.. hilne laga tha pinjra wo, or jhat se neeche toot gira, aazaadi ke is pal me wo, khusi se hawa me khood pada, wo sang hawa ke udta raha, toofaano se bhi bhidta raha, aajaadi ki jo khwahish thi, unhe dil se jod wo badhta raha.. ek nanha sa jo panchi tha, ab hawa se baate karta raha..
