Dilemma

Why is there a Pre-position? Where is Post-position?

Why is there a conjunction? To join con men?

Shouldn't Noun be banned? I mean NO UN? No Peace? Only War?

Are you Pro-Noun too. Have faith in the UN!

Why can't verb be used as a verb? Don't use the noun form. Didn't you verb it?

Where is the Madverb?

Being a topper in the class.

HSC board in Maharashtra didn't announce the 12th standard toppers. Some believed this to be a very good change. I thought as well too. But what about the folks who study hard just to be recognized in the society? Same for the parents who want their kids to be known in public just because they stood first in the class, in the college, in the state, and so on. Must have been hard for them right?

I remember some people from my class. The toppers that is. They used to slog and slog and fight with the teacher for a single score in the answer papers. People used to cry if they came second in class, that too by a very slim margin. Now however, these people are married, mostly housewives who keep updating their FB status about their kids and caring spouses. That is cool.

What I am worried about is, will these folks become revolutionary parents? Forget revolutionary, at least liberal? Or will it be the same old story? Learn, study, learn, come first, and enter the rat race?

Time will tell!

Pack of cards!

Life is very ironic at times. When you try very hard to make something happen, it doesn't. And apart from it not working out, it leaves some painful residual feelings. However, as soon as you sit back and relax, things start moving towards you. Love for example. It might just happen, but you may not be able to hold on to it, not be able to keep it. Time! Timing! Big Enemies, well known thieves!

Decisions; very important weapons for some, double edged swords for others. Soon, life and its games draws us into a whorl, a whorl that makes us feel that all that is real in life is illusions. Illusions that offer the ultimate reality.

And all you can eventually do is sigh. Even the tears don't mean much. Laughter is just a way to forget the Time that stole a lot of things from you. But you can't and shouldn't laugh at Time. It might take revenge, a revenge too tough for you to handle.

When all the world is making noise around and all you can hear is the silence from within you, is the moment when you realize the games that your mind has played with yourself. The way you perceive life and the way it drags you in a roulette.

Choice, does anyone really have a choice? Life draws situations for us from the ever shuffling pack of cards!
