Do I come with a Guarantee Card of some sort? no right! but our folks do create a long decorated piece of beautifully written paper with hell lot of calculations of positions of stars and all heavenly influences that will govern all my life(sigh); all my life in a piece of paper. I should not be mocking the greatness of astrology BUT I AM NOT SURE IF IT WILL WORK AS THEY SAY, my seasons do change but if you ask me how, I may have answers none.I am intoxicated in this strange good mood by a happy feeling. Something creeping in my head. It must be this crazy song playing....
I’m just average, common too
I’m just like him, the same as you
I’m everybody’s brother and son
I ain’t different from anyone
It ain’t no use a-talking to me
It’s just the same as talking to you
I am common too and I am average too. Why should I think one should always have a degree in Law; I want to. Its good to know what laws we make and follow while I keep aside what law comes naturally to me. There are different more things I want to be, do and become in time. There shall be one tallest mountain in any continent I must climb; one of the seven summits. Once on top; from there I shall jump into a para glide or a sky drive. The Himalayas are fascinating 'scapes, I would love to ride my cycle bike across these heights. Even hot air balloon would give nice aerial views. Or even fly a plane for I always wanted to fly one.
The desert is good, one strange musical instrument I must learn and play it while sitting on sand as a setting desert Sun stares at me. If I can I will get on a tree top, sit there under the starry sky while the game runs across the great expands of Serengeti. Fly a large kite on the flats in Kuch and drive a speedy in Utah salts. Yes, I like driving car more than a motorbike; strange it is not. One car rally across the country I do desire in life. Cross over from India in to China I guess!
Hike up a river from where it meets the sea to where it began flowing is ultimate adventure. As a kid on many rainy days I dropped so many paper boats in the drain hoping it will make it to the sea one day. The sea is one other place so continuous and so wide. Surfing is a good sport I should try and do a deep sea drive. I should even try to canoe across a strait in Sea. What say you ?
If all above is a little too much for you beware I will write a book too. Dancing surely is the most relaxing form of merry making, I want to learn to dance now; one classical Indian style. Gotta get glued to my roots or I fear I might go haywire. My country is vast and varied like a world within another, I want to travel India alone. For rest of the World, an accompanying wife. Twenty five I have in mind, countries not wives.
Note: There are more it just keeps coming and coming; like being present in one Olympic Game or watch a World Cup Football match from the stadium and weird ones like sipping coffee at North Pole! Damn will be a farmer OK!!!
