Whattttt

I cannot believe I am writing something on this blog after 2 years. There has to be a mistake. 

Investigations tomorrow however as its time to sleep.

Broken Glass Lid

I got a call in the afternoon today, while I was on my way back to office from a meeting. 

It was a lady calling from that cleaning service I hire to clean my house. One of the cleanses broke the lid of my pan. 

The lady on the call spoke hastily and I'm broken English and I questioned her a couple of time about what broke. I thought it was my glass bowls. Not that it mattered but I just wanted to make sure what had broken before I said it was fine. If it was something of the apartment which I didn't own I would have to take responsibility if I told her it was fine. 

Once confirmed that it was the lid, I said it was fine and not a problem. The relief in the lady's voice was so obvious that someone who didn't even know the context would have picked it up. She thanked me profusely and honestly I didn't see the point. I've broken stuff when cleaning the house or washing vessels. So for a cleaner to do the same at some point in time is inevitable. 

However it got me thinking about how unfair things are at times. If I had insisted a payment be made or some compensation be given, while the company may bear the cost the real sufferer would have been the cleaner. Reprimanded, salary cut or even being fired could all be a possibility. And for a silly little cooking pan lid. 

In the back of my head I keep thinking that the broken lid incident should have at worst made me angry or irritated or at best made me feel indifferent but I was actually saddened by it. The lady shouldn't have been worrying so much about a broken vessel but she was.

Life

I may not have seen a lot of life, but whatever I have seen, I have watched very closely.

R

So little, the difference between, friend and fiend. 

Staying in the same direction...

Why is it that when we realize we are digging our own grave, we still continue digging?

Irony

All the shit we don't want, comes to us and the only thing we chase, is totally out of reach.

What to do what to do what to do what to do what to do....

Don't you just hate when you're tormented because you have too many choices to choose from? Sometimes having too many choices is worse than having no choice.

Trust

If you have no trust in someone, nothing they say or do will seem right to you.

I'm not a fan of blindly trusting people but if there is 0 trust, you'll get nowhere.

Giving Love

If you are going to be partial in your love, always love more, those that love you back.

Growing Up

You only stop being a kid when life slaps you in the face a bunch of times and wakes you up. So a lot of people irrespective of age, will stay kids for longer than you imagine.

[PS - I'm not talking about 'the inner child in you' (positive sense and all) when I say 'kid']

+ - - + + - - +

So little required for going from positivity to negativity and so much effort needed to go from negativity to positivity.
Life has no real balance

Tragedy

Some dreams are meant to be just dreams....

Why did he do it?

Sometimes not knowing the context of someones actions is more nerve wracking than the consequences of those actions.

Simple enough?

Don't bite off what you shouldn't chew.

Reaching a plateau

There are 2 kinds of plateaus - ones you reach after uphill climbs from below and ones you reach after downhill falls from peaks.

Rule

When the world is on your side, whatever you want is at your feet.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, right wrong

Life is one huge struggle of trying to do the right thing all the time.

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness

The line is just so brilliant. It's from a song I've been looping.
Enjoy :)

Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know feat. Kimbra




Lyrics -

Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know



Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know


But you didn't have to cut me off
Make it like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Cleaning up!

Life is fulllllll of messes. It's just one clean up after another....
