Man, i am in the final pages of the book Cosmos written by Carl Sagan.. and it was simply mind blowing, it makes you rething about everything you know .... i love to read books by such masters . it makes the other things so petty in comparison, the things men fight about, the territory fights, the mindless killings, what a waste, humans do not even know what they are doing... it is comp-lete foolishness, wish they could see the truth and divert their energies toward more fruitful purposes :( what that is gonna take a long time ... we are making progress but its very slow, but hopefully we will be there in a few centuries ...

reading such works makes me wish that i could express myself more vividly, with more grace, but i am afraid that is the gift to a select few ... looking forward to read all of Sagan's books ... soon !!!

Finished another book three days back - The lost Symbol By Dan Brown, it was thoroughly enjoyable but i will say that the path was more enjoyable than the destination ... I mean.. the process was magnificinent, the way brown informs us about the various customs and rituals and the hidden facts about many things of our daily life is very interesting, but the final truth to which he leads us to was a little disappointing ... hmmmmm ... but the book was great.. maybe i expected more ... but the process of reading the book and the revelations were very exciting, finished it in 3 days ...

Hmmm, back after a long time, was busy with exams, the previous exmas were not very good, so had to concentrate this time, was not what one would call a very good exams but will do, will improve more the next time .... this time did not go home after the exams, now is vacation time, but i am still in haridwar, because my parents are not home, father had a health condition and for that he had to be hospitalised, now they are in kolkata for treatment, thankfully now he is out of danger and recovering very quicky.... they will be home soon, brother is with them .... nothing much going on here, friends all gone home and i am killing time by reading novels and seeing movies, talking of novels, i started the novel 'the lost Symbol" by dan brown, its good, finished 2/3rd of it, will be over by tomorrow... its good to get lost between the pages ... will get some more from the local book store ...

Hmmmm ... saw the movie clash of the titans yesterday ... was ok , the 3d rendition was not that good, but paisa vasool :D tomorrow i will be heading back to haridwar to my college, so today busy packing ... start of ghisa pita routine again, but guess thats life .. if everything becomes as you want then it will be not much of a life ..... this summer will be extremely HOT, have to change my room when i get back and have to jump into the studies right then ,,,, not much time left, have to prove myself, have to make a comeback ... when i think about life as compared to the other bigger things like time and the universe, i realise that id nothing, who cares what i become in about a 100 years, no one will even know my name, i will vanish completely from the face of the earth leaving no trace behind ... (except for some nalayaak children :P ) but then i think for the time i am here have to maintain the status and to get the respect of fellow humans and the society ... like it is said behave like the Romans when in Rome .... so have to floow the rules, for how long i do not know, my aim is to work and earn till 40 years, then retire and go out on a world tour, i believe, that the gift of intelligence that we humans have should be used to the fullest, do things which differentiate us from the other animals, like travel, think, treat each other good ... be loyal (not like dogs running after many bitches), eat good food , and read books ... do things differently, and live comfortably ... hmmmmm ... i do not know if others will agree with me, but each of us is entitled to have his own opinion ... till next time... bye ,,, signing off *POOF*
