don't walk under that ladder!!

Itchy ear, someone's talking about you; itchy right palm, you'll meet someone new;itchy left palm, money's coming ur way..It's bad luck to have a black cat cross your path...
superstition n me? nah ..modern thoughts, broader sense of thinking, wider perspectives. I have no place in my head for superstition- Those who choose to believe, find their world delivering what they expect.... and those who don't, (like me!!)are not affected... that was in reply to one of my friends asking me if i believed in "superstition"..It hardly affects the tangibles i need!!....those in the know would know and would have most definitely explained to this person that I always use the pen that my dad bought me when i was in class 5 and i'll cry if i ever lose it.. i always wear my blue kurta on the days i have a presentation to make and of late i've been terming the days that i don't wear my favourite ring as a 'bad day' - ask me. i'll still say -superstition?... nah, that's jus me categorizing things as lucky n not-so-lucky!:D

relativity and pressure

It was the first ever saturday in the 6 months of my so-called 'working' life that i decided to actually get to work- nope this sudden urge to work on a weekend was no by-product of peer pressure, merely that of friday evening's laziness..my work's always been timed comfortably, flexibly too. never had rush hours. i have an awesome gang there and not to forget really awesome senior collegues .but this was my 'everyday' and my everyday,was not something i ever contemplated about anyday until yesterday.. until yesterday when i met someone who seemed a wee bit more than jus tortured, who actually worked on a saturday cos he had deadlines to meet. for one, i felt amazingly useless!! I realised my happiness was challenged on such relative terms. relativity, damn you! ... maybe i really need to think of what i have actually achieved being where i am now- but then again, if i rationalise on the happenings of the past, how am i gonna end up? happy ?depressed ?philosophical?--am i happy having this easy life or am i frustrated abt it?? confused..
To see the world in a grain of sand, and to see heaven in a wild flower, hold infinity in the palm of your hands, and eternity in an hour. -Blake
