The fortress is breached again!!

My post maybe a little late to arrive…But, how many times do u get to read the below line

“Indians destroy the Australians”

Priceless…

They did it in Perth earlier this year, in one of the most controversial test series ever. And now in our own backyard at Mohali sans the controversies. What makes this match so special is that,It wasn’t anything like a typical nail biting test match, where fortune would swing from one team to another ,But the Indians dominated the aussies all the way, in all 5 days during all sessions. This is the first time in the history of modern day test cricket that our Indian pace attack had an edge over the Australian pace in the likes of Brett lee and Mitchel Johnson .The victory sent  the aussie media scrampling and pleaing for the legendary Shane Warne to give up retirement. Well, according to me, this is our real victory.

Below are some of the my take aways, from the test match…

1.Ricky Pointing still wants to be Ishant Sharma’s Bunny.

2.Mat Hayden, who’s known to sweep better than our Indian women is having an abysmal series.

3.The rookie  5-wicket hauler on debut -Amit Mishra has put Kumble’s position in the team in a hot spot. It will be interesting to see, who will replace who is the next match

4.Our own Bhajji surprisingly couldn’t come up with any mediocre sledge terms like “monkey or donkey this time ”. But look who’s joined the club, Its our gentleman “Zaheer”…

5.Never  the least, the demi god of cricket Sachin Tendulkar  surpassed Laras’ 11953 runs which must have come in the srilankan series itself.

நேற்று நான் தளை கால் புரியாமல் சந்தோஷ பட்டேன் நான் , உன் உயிர் தோழி என்று நீ சொன்ன போது ஆனால் , இன்று அதற்காக அழுகிறேன் உனக்கு அந்த கண் நீரின் அர்த்தம் புரியலையா இல்லை புரியாமல் நடிகிறாயா என்று..........

"Fear not, for I am with you ", a photo frame with those words stands on the cubicle desk

Ironical as it seem, I just got kicked out from my earlier workstation which is to be used for some project related work in the future..

"dah!,Im here for a project", I said


"You have been allocated a new workstation, in the next block. So Kindly take a backup of your data and shift", says a person not worth mentioning in my blog.

Little did i know that, I was being ceremoniously kicked out. I packed my stuffs and started my lonely walk to the next block for what it felt like an eternity. Emotions running loose,I could feel my eyes burning. My throat went dry. I knew whatever was happening, I least deserved it of all the people .I began to wonder if there's anything "fair" about this.


"Excuse me" said a voice behind me.

I just wanted to retaliate back, Yes!Thats how Im addressed these days. First name "Excuse", surname "me".Damn you IT buggers!..Has anyone ever heard of etiquettes?"You will all burn in hell and today is your lucky day",I thought to myself and silently paved way to the gentleman to walk through.

I reached, the so called "next block", It was cold, dark and dank, a few sleepy eyes turned their gaze on me as i walked down the aisle.
075,076,077,078...079....And there it was, my new cubicle "079".The oversized CPU was lying on its side.,Papers of all sorts was in a filthy pile on the desk. The monitor LED blinked boringly. The mouse was hanging off the table, as if it read my thoughts and committed suicide. An half filled, and half crushed plastic water bottle sinfully rolled on its side, like an overturned filmfare award twisted and bent. The scene was lifeless and messy, apparently the previous occupant took less liking to the act of cleaning. I pushed the paper explosion to one side of the desk, and deposited my bag and pulled a chair and sat. I took to cleaning the desk myself cursing the guy who previous owned the cube and gathered up a handful of the strewn paper bits.I spotted the dust bin just below the desk,when I realized that there was something dark and damp in the depths of the bin., puked in from the looks of it…I cudnt even imagine and I didn’t even wanted to imagine as to what might be in it. I sat up straight, throwing the paper back onto the desk. I was disgusted beyond words, angry,irritated,tired and worthless about my current state of affairs .My career was going for a toss . I felt myself boiling to a breaking point. I stared and stared at the dormant monitor.Just saw myself staring back at me.And then, I read those words


" Fear not, for I am with you "
-Is 41:10


A photo frame with those words stands on the cubicle desk just behind the monitor. It added a smile to my face for the first time today. I felt something, that I needed at that time- An Assurance!!!!


I suddenly felt grateful for my cube ex-occupant.

Being religiously a misanthropist by practice primarily when life’s fucked you so early as many times as  Paris Hilton getting laid in a month, HOPE never made into my vocabulary or rather didn’t  exists in my world of words. Hope, Belief, faith, trust were all in the same genre, So near, yet so far.I felt sorry for civilization, when they hoped and believed for something which was just meant to be hoped.I guess, they’d subconsciously knew, somethings in life can only be “hoped” to happen and never will “will” happen. Now, how lame are we?!!

And, there is this separate species, which believes in “thoughts-affecting- your- future” crap. I mean, seriously people! can you actually tune you mind so that you think of something so bloody positive and it will booooooom happen in the future.  This is even lame than the first theory. Has  the human mind gone so simple you can  manipulate it at will??...It’s a totally different theory if you don’t have one in the first place.

ANYWAYS, Cynical as I may sound in many of my posts, “A Little hope” is what makes me roar every day. No mater, how practical and rationale we may be in our attitude towards life, we always had hope, a teeny tiny ray of light, a minuscule voice inside our head that keeps us going, even if we know deep down inside that what we hope is not possible. And this does not ricochet from within oneself; It can be given only by others. Just like love, friendship,..Hope can only be given, by someone other than ourselves. More than being hopeful, lets give hope to one another, loved ones, friends, family.It is this very act that makes life to be lived for a lifetime.

Dunno what prompted me to write this post, Just something I needed and something I needed to write about in the present climate.

Remember, Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, no good thing ever dies!!!
