And freedom for the world

T'was once a molten mass,
The goodness trapped inside.
Fires of hell and brimstone outside,
Serene love, trapped inside.

T'was time for the colours trapped,
To be unravelled to the universe, in full blossom and glory.
Big Bang! And the fire of hatred imploded to the depths.
And the spring of life, out on the surface, for the stars to shine upon and the rest to behold.

Countless revolutions, rotations and explosions,
The springs are turning to fire, waters of life to poisons of contempt.
The comtemp on the surface, eclipsing the lava within.

A breeze untouched, by the demoniac tornadoes,
Asks the Lord, will you be a spectator to this?
To the self-destruction of morality and life?

Doubt not my inaction, I am the wisest of the wise.
Let them be merry, in revelry and avarice.
They are not grateful, those who call themselves humans.

They shall castigate my name,
Trade it with the devil.
Let them believe, as they do;
Enjoy their moments of treachery, before the moment of annihilation.

Annihilation it shall be,
The cycle shall repeat,
To dust life shall turn once more,
Redemption for the souls,
And freedom for the world.

Random Fact

The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law which stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb.

Random Fact

It was discovered on a space mission that a frog can throw up.

The frog throws up it's stomach first, so the stomach is dangling out of it's mouth.
Then the frog uses it's forearms to dig out all of the stomach's contents and then swallows the stomach back down again.

EEEUWWWW!

Choice

What would you prefer-
A moderate society in danger of extremism.
An extremist race, struggling to break into liberism.

Note to Self

For every tear supressed.
There is a smile i cannot forget.

For every weapon I've raised.
I crossed a bridge to redemption.

For every decision I regretted,
There is a lesson I've learnt for life.

For every moment of sin,
I've had a lesson in humility.

'I'm gonna go up and say-KISS MY ASS'

It didn't really turn out as planned.
It was more like - You scratch my back I scratch yours.

Civil Services? You must be joking - III & Bad days at work

Why civil services?
I need to feel that I'm doing something worthwhile with my life.
And besides, there's free travel, free food, free electricity, free telephone... :)

Bad days at work

I've been going through a rough patch at work lately.
Or rather, ever since I started work.
It's time I did something about it.
Can't take the shit no more.

What do they mean by 'serve your clients'?
I'd rather brand their asses with - I am a dork.
I'm sick of being labelled a resource -
Wasn't I supposed to be human?

That's it.
Have to muster up the balls.
I make my decisions from now.
They can lick ass if they want; I won't.

How and why did I forget-
The only one stopping me is me.

Today's the day.
I'm gonna go up and say-
Kiss my ASS.

Civil Services? You must be joking

I've done a lot of thinking lately, and have decided to try my luck in the Indian Civil Services.
I'll need to make a lot of sacrifices, at work and at home.

At the same time, success is not really close to being a possibility for me, considering my hectic work schedules and.
But there are some things you want to do because you are convinced you CAN do them. Potential failure then ceases to become a deterrent.

Why do I want to do it? I have this feeling in some corner of my intestines that I can make it.
One might argue that this feeling has gotten me into a lot of trouble and heartache along the way. But I'm willing to give it a shot.

This may also seem to some as being a blatant case of professional suicide.
I can safely assume that I will lead a comfortable life if I choose to remain in my present field of occupation.
Not to mention the salaries only sore from where I'm standing now.

I have no presumptions. I know at the back of my head that only a fool will expect certain sucess at the exams. But i'm giving it a shot.

While I'm at it, I've shortlisted the following three subjects as my potential optionals for the UPSC Prelims in 2008 -
1 - Geography
2 - Political Science and International Relations
3 - Psychology

As of now Geography seems to be the winner hands down.
More to follow.
