A birthday to remember
I never really believed or even probably looked forward for my birthday except probably in my childhood days when the lure of a gift was all I used to look forward to.
However, in the past few years, I had few very contrasting birthdays, some filled with so much joy and happiness and some with relative despair. In them I saw and felt touched by others and also saw how much I can be despised by someone.
Yet there were events or rather aspects of them to mark them by - maybe.
This year has been the oddest of all. It has been the most indifferent one in the life I have lived till now I presume. Forget gifts, I even forgot my own birthday - seems hilarious maybe but it is tragic too. A birthday full of loads of work is fine but bereft of any feelings is something very new. Many a year I had said to myself that birthday is just another day of the year, there is nothing more noticeable in this year about my birthday than this.
Enjoying such a day is also an experience.

The World is Flat
The world contrary to popular/scientific belief is actually flat.
Physically it may just be oval but life in this world is definitely flat.
People lead their lives on a flat pitch. They do not revolve or rotate. Time passes by, men keep walking until we actually fall off the edge. Many people make a hue and cry about being satisfied of feeling satisfied by looking behind after we spend a lifetime. Do we really get time to look behind, nobody looks or even wants to look behind, everybody looks forward without knowing that the faster we travel the closer we get to the edge to fall off.
And when we reach the edge, we actually feel that probably we must look behind, wait and cherish the things we did right and correct the wrong ones. Only if we had waited and patiently tried earlier without running forward only, the wrongs would have been corrected surely.
And then when all those realisations do flash back we fall. We fall deep in the chasm, in the dark only to live another lifetime sometime else and commit the same fallacies over and over again.
Only if the world would have been round,oval, spherical,elliptical or even a cone for instance. :)
