​Aloha guys! It’s new year. Before I continue with my nonsense, here’s wishing you a happy and prosperous new year. Make the best out of it. Don’t complain if you can’t. 

Now let’s see. What everyone does on the first day of the year is pen down some resolutions. Most resolutions definitely include joining a gym. Isn’t it. Weren’t you thinking of this? He he he. That’s on my list as well for whole together different reason. Let’s not get lost in thoughts. We have to make a list. 

1) Reading : Over the last 3 years, This one resolution I have been able to keep up with. 3 years in a row!! Not a joke dude. I definitely deserve a pat on my back. So this year I am going to make it a little bit tough. I want to read 35 books. The difficult task is that I want half of it to be paperback or hardcover. Not ebooks. Believe me. It’s a difficult task. You cannot carry the book with you everywhere. 

2) Solo hike : This has been on my mind for 2 years now. Couldn’t do it for some wrong reasons and a couple of right as well. I’ll have to be fit to be able to fulfill this. Hence the next resolution. 

3) Join a gym : Oh God! I so want to do this. But my laziness keeps me away from joining a gym. I don’t want six pecks and the body of a model. I want to be fit and healthy and have good stamina (for all the right reasons). If I am able to make 30 days in a gym, Then it will last for a long time. BTW, Why there’s no tax relaxation for joining a gym? Are you listening Mr. Prime minister? 

Fourth would have been get married. But I have completely lost interest in it. My practical sense tells me I have just 1% chance of getting married now. It’s better to keep this out of resolution list. 

So what are your resolutions? Let me know. 

Happy new year

Hello guys!! Remember me? The donkey who used to blog about the usual shit? Yeah!! It’s me. Back with the mandatory new year’s post. First things first. I wish everyone who is reading this post, A very happy and prosperous new year. Hope this year turns out to be better than the one which just ended.
So, This year was quite a turn around for me. Till halfway through, Everything was going as I had planned. And then suddenly, My parents forced me take up the government job. Are you effing kidding me??? I got effed up for almost one and half year trying to get clients and settle my business. Now suddenly you want me to get into government job? Wow!! You guys are awesome.

Regardless of my opinion, I had to take up the job. I wasn’t sure. I wasn’t sure just like the zillions of times I changed my job previously. But there’s one thing I was pretty sure about. As sure as my death. And that was.. My parent’s cannot be wrong when it’s a matter of my life. After the struggle in first half of this year, I finally had some less struggling life. I have taken some really careless and harsh decisions in my life. And for once, I thought it’d be better to stick with my parents advice. Till date, it’s all good. 

This year, I felt, I entered into the next level of spirituality. I was a part of Bhagwat Saptah, Pooja of Lord Krishna which is lasts for 7 days, at my ancestral house. They were the most hectic days of this year. It was Lord Krishna showing me the right way. Letting me to look at the world through his eyes so that I could identify the good, the bad and the ugly. I was able to see through many masks during these days. I was able to identify the two faced dear ones. They are dangerous species of termites which will eat you from inside and before you know, You’ll collapse. May Lord bless them with wisdom.

Loss of dear ones always hurt. This year, I lost my aunt. You always love the ones who care about you. You reciprocate the feelings unless you are an asshole. Losing her suddenly was a blow to me. For the first time in two decades, I cried in public. I don’t know how people will take it. They may say I am weak. I am not a man. Phuk you assholes!! I am a human being with emotions. I hope she rests in peace. 

Usually, For the past 5-6 years, Second half of the year has been always painful. It always lead to unbearable pain and suffering. But this year was quite the opposite. I am happy like never before. I always loved my life despite suffering. But this year, I love it a lot more.
And towards the end of the year, Last week of the year to be precise, I discovered a whole new myself. I have never been so happy in my life. I traveled alone. I drove alone. Made new friends. And had a great time while doing so. It is just like Hindi film which ends with happy ending.

It’s been a great year. (Nope. I haven’t posted that video on Facebook. It sucks.) I would love to see this year repeat sometime in future. I wish..

Till then… Think Nonsense..

Happy New Year 2014

The first day of new year is always exciting and full of positive energy. we are greeted with happy faces almost all around. We make new year resolutions. It’s a different story we forget to work on them. We look for the new year diary, So that we can fill it up with everyday ramblings only to find it empty at the end of the year. It is also the time when we look back and go through the previous year.
That’s me actually….
Last year started on a positive note as usual but nothing happened for the first two months. I realized it was me and I had to put more effort to achieve. So I started my consultancy in the first week of March. I knew it would be difficult. I knew I won’t get much work for the year or so. But what I didn’t expect were the hurdles at the personal level. I wasn’t prepared for them. The result was a low point within the first two month of startup.
Lost and frustrated, there was only one thing that was holding me together. Hope. Tried and tested over that last decade, It always worked for me. Fighting with the difficulty to focus, I took baby steps. A couple of months of walking, I found myself on the right path. I am still struggling but now I know which way to go.
For the last six years or so, The last three months of every year, spoilt the whole year for me. I was very cautious this time. I didn’t want to make foolish mistakes, Which I had already committed during the first half of the year. I was happy with the proceedings.
In the month of November, I traveled the Northern India. I felt the change after the journey. I gained a little bit of focus to continue. Alone or with companions, Doesn’t matter. That was the moment I decided to travel every year.
There were a few things I ticked off at the end of the year. Things I always wanted to do. Silly, laughable and maybe very easy to do for some. Here’s the list
– Setup an office
– Experience a snowfall
– Visit Indo-Pak Border
– Pee from a bridge
– Dance like no one’s watching
– Take a long, quiet drive at 2am

I wish to complete some more this year. Fingers crossed.

Oh!! And Happy new year 2014 to all my readers.
Make the most out of everyday and
Think Nonsense…

Bye Bye 2010

This is the last day of year 2010. So I decided to write and opened the blog editor. I couldn’t go beyond the blank screen. I kept staring and thinking of the best or worst things happened this year. Nothing… The most boring year so far. There were very few moments of excitement but not worth mentioning. As the year closed to an end, I desperately wanted see the new year sun.

This year I was totally brain stuck. No new ideas. No imagination. No crazy dreams. No Nonsense. I feel like this year was empty. Every year fills up my thought basket. I empty that at the year end for the new thoughts. Not this year. It’s already empty.

I hope the new year brings a lot of positive changes in me.
I hope it gives me courage.
I hope it gives me strength.
I hope it gives me the ability to take quick decisions.
And above all it makes me think selfless. You must have figured that out by my previous lines.

Bye Bye 2010.. (Sound of emptying of bucket)
