Colors
We waste our lives fighting over colors
color of our skin...
black, white and brown.
Leaving the the innocence and beauty of creation to drown.
Color of our god...
green, saffron and white
Looking for a reason why his god is wrong and yours is right.
Color of money...
well that one is the same for all but still leads to so many things getting screwed.
BRIGHTER...VISIBLE...IN YOUR FACE => Success and happiness!
Sometimes I think if all of us were colorblind we wouldn't be so compulsive in compartmentalizing and categorizing every single thing, but then it figures, we'll just find another way of branding things. Nah, there is no hope at all!!
P.S. If you look at a black and white picture, the emotion is always more prominent than everything else...food for thot!

You look so fragile I could break
But I try to hold myself
Together for the both of us
But in truth I'm just as scared

The void of loss
You feel free.
Almost afloat in the air.
Nothing to tie you down.
Nothing to hold you back.
Ah the freedom of flight.
The absence of responsibilities.
No boundaries of futile attempts at humor.
Ah the spontaneity of a leap.
The gust of wind in your hair.
The darkness of the abyss rushing towards you.
The only source of light getting away.
And the solitary tear reappears.
Then you realize, you are not free...you are orphaned.
You are not floating it is your worst fall.
Your arms are flailing to grasp at anything around.
You wish somebody/someone had held you back and completed the puzzle.

The Requiem
You wished for it to happen.
You wished it to be perfect when it did.
It happens when you least expected it.
It takes your breath away every time you look back at it.
Then reality shatters all that was true and yours.
Then reality shreds the only perfection you had known.
What reality can't take away are the memories.
Memories of perfection and completion.
Every time you look back it brings back a smile and a tear.
Every time you look back you say "Goodbye and thanks for all the fish!!"
:_-)

Small Talk II
If you know me then you know I can't have the "Howz the weather" kinda conversation. That usually leaves me with my iPod when around new people. So I tried to change during this trip to Amreeka!!
It is a bit weird that we desperately seek change in the routines that are our lives, when we get the change we longed for we seek familiarity... So, the most critical task on the "to do" list. Get Indian food (can't cook so ready to eat :)) Being a guy I was finished with the shopping in 10 minutes and had about 20 minutes to kill before the cab got back to pick me up.
The owner of the store behind the counter (Also known as Bhaiya or Uncle) seemed harmless enough. So I took the plunge...
Lets skip the conversation and lemme tell you
1. He is from Rajisthan
2. Been in US for 15 years in Tucson for 12 years, 3 years in denver
3. Used to own a 3 Video Shops in Denver before Blockbuster and Netflix started and he moved to Tucson.
4. 1 daughter who is married and lives in Florida (who's inlaws are visiting btw)
5. Her husband is a doc (SURPRISE)
6. 1 son...yup he is a doc too
7. They are traveling to India to find him a Bride.(Sundar, Susheel, Saral ;)). Don't worry his daughter will take care of the shop in his absence.
8. The retail business is good. A big market for Indian stuff. Although they can't return perishable stuff to the supplier.
9. Some things are made for Import while others are the same for Indians and NRIs.
10. A freezer had broken down thus the fewer ready to eat Naans and Kulchas.
I was so proud of myself. Mission accomplished!! MAN I HAVE CHANGED!!!
Next week, out for grocery shopping. I went back to my new "friend". I asked him how's the plan for the trip coming along?? He said o.k. but looked at me weirdly. And it dawned on me..."UNCLE", did not know who the hell I was!!
I have started wearing my "CRAP, U R GONNA TALK TO ME AREN'T U???" shirt again. I think I need new earphones for my ipod.
