Three years.. these past three years define life in a bubble.. A bubble thats on the verge of breaking open.. fear to let reality sink in... to accept the simple fact 'nothing lasts for ever'..
The things, the people, the life, the relations that were taken for granted, almost treating them to one's own rights n property.. start posing questions.. questions that range from 'Is it goin to be the same??' to 'Is this really happening??'...Nostalgia started kicking in already... even before the end....
Or rather 'Going Psenti' would better describe the condition we are in right now.. the reason for this sudden rush of emotions.. Batch Snaps...!!!
To see those guys, all suited up running from person to person, trying to capture all the memories in a picture .... a soveneir, not for the day but all the wonderful experiences for the past 3 years, the emotional rollercoaster ride thats about to come to an end.. So much, so that
group pics of dota and cs players were being taken..
Pretty mediocre jokes were shared, cameras kept flashing, suits were flaunted(the barney instinct surfacing) and so were some traditional attires of mass appeal(go Kings..!!), past groups rekindled(badboys, vyasites, wingies, roomies, sidees... n even old bhavanmates).. all in all, it was a day fit to serve as one of bitsian life's fond memories..
28th feb ... well , got to see how that turns out... :)

SeRendipiTy..it Is!!!!
Life... define it and be cognitive of the fact that the true meaning is a mystery. Search for the same and you will end up on a wild-goose chase. 'Live it', some say, but whats the point when you do not know its significance. Try to understand life and you will take an enthralling journey into the mysteries of life, solving a few but ending up with more.
The enigmatic memories of the past coupled with future expectations painted perfectly by the creative part in you, the power of which is beyond measure. As the events of the past upon retrospect solve some riddles but bring up quite a few at the same time, leaving you in an emotional turmoil, if overcome would result in having a whole new perspective of life.
Ayn Rand says,"Every man builds his world in his own image. He has the power to choose but not the power to escape the necessity of choice." Lets ignore the latter half of the statement for the time being, which i assure you has a lot of bearing for the protagonists of objectivism. Now, what about God or rather the existence of the superior force that has a say in our fate. That is one of the questions of life that would mystify me for ever.
As you dig deeper the thoughts ultimately turn to one's self and then the soul. There are three personalities trapped in the body of a normal human-being:
1. The one you project yourself to be
2. The one others perceive you to be
3. And finally the inner you that remains hidden in the wraps of self-assurances and fear of rejection.
The inner you, that comes to the surface only in cases of stress, drives you in the significant decisions much to your own astonishment and of the people around you. This leaves me with the attitude that's best suited for one's self.. Is happy-go-lucky the best way for all times?? or is I-don't-give-a-damn resolves all the problems instead of creating them.... But if scrutinized carefully, you will understand the point i am trying to make. The former attitude is a manifestation of the latter that one projects and bestows the driver seat to the latter in extreme conditions...
The ethical values come to the surface once others step into the picture. Am I ethically correct in either outright expression of my feelings or hiding them deep inside my heart?? The probe mystifies with the integration of the ethical element.
I ain't sure where this is ultimately going to lead but one thing I have learnt is 'Life isnt simple' and probably it shouldn't be. The mysterious potential that it holds and the power of reason is what that's driving me forward in this quest for the meaning. The same mysterious potential that unravels itself to an extent permissible resulting in...... Serendipity!!!!
