"we are here for a reason, for it was a memorable season"

To Look at those sparkling eyes...
the guy almost dies,

Relationship makes such ties
of the wise and the other wise

Far away she resides,
life has taken sides

Pain is hidden in his eyeswhile,
the smiles are full of lies

"we are here for a reason,for it was just another season"

Like those waves that touch and go
no point in staying low

unconditional your love might have been
worry never,since god has seen

tomorrow will always be bright
let yesterday go out of sight

whatever u say for things to heal
it will remain as a special feel

fighting it will lead you nowhere
there are many those who care

"we are here for a reason,for it was a memorable season"

Elegance Personified

Yes, that I how I choose to describe what I saw today while sitting at the entrance of my college. I was waiting to meet the dept HOD, and was getting bored as he was attending some meeting. My eyes slowly glanced across the college entrance from corner to corner; suddenly something caught my eyes, and then my attention. If you haven’t guessed what
I am speaking about yet, probably you don’t know me that well :)
It was a girl about to ride away on her scooty. Man what an elegance species of Homo Sapien they are, it was really amazing and heart breaking to see her softly hold the bike, sit and kick the stand up. How in the 7 Heavens do they do such a monotonous movement so elegantly? To add to the kick of the situation I saw her pull that fortunate vehicle back and start that engine with a soft touch, only to realize that she is riding her way out of the college gate and onto the main road, finally she slowly speeds up that piston converting that motion to rotation of the wheels and hence riding away from my heart and the love of that moment. My heart sinks and am back to the reality just to find a guy in a Pulsar [Definitely a Male] and sigh away searching for Scootys[Undoubtedly a Female].I wonder how love stories can be such short lived but fortunately it happens every now and then. :)
P.S: I am not a brand ambassador of neither Home Sapien (F) nor Scooty but I am an innocent admirer of both with due respect.

Rendezvous With My subconscious

The Story of how I almost managed to drive right through what could have been the most disastrous accident in my life.

It all happened on 2nd Feb 2006 (Yesterday). Man this is hell broken, am having such a bad patch of my driving and the roads.

It was around 5.25 pm , I was happily riding back from office,and after having quick dash to my office gym. Fortunately traffic was mild as I left early. I had almost reached the end Hosur Road and was nearing the Silk Board flyover. It was a normal evening for me sun shining bright and me happily singing some song I had made up,to while away the riding. Little did I know what was going to happen ahead of me on the time frame just a few seconds away.

There was just a Car and a Cycle ahead me, car right in front of me about 200mts away which is consider very safe by hosur roads traffic standards and the cycle to the cars right some 100mts ahead of the car at the near side of the median.Car was driving at around 70kmph and me at around 60kmph and cyclist about 10kmph yet ahead of the car simply because the car hasn't yet overtaken it.

Then the most dreadful moment happened, the cyclist blindly took a right not noticing the car behind and the car driver saw it and tried to avoid a collision. But at 70kmph its not that easy to change your path. The car vrooomed ahead,tires squeaking and the car took a zig - zag path as the driver applied the break. Relative velocity got the better of me...As I inevitable neared the collision.

[If I had taken left I hit the car and right I hit the cyclist] Believe me my mind was not in control to make those decisions.
Guess what I just rode STRAIGHT as if there was no car or cycle ahead and I have no clue why my mind didn't work at that instance. It was my sub conscious that saved me...Like a HARD REAL TIME Operation system that was hiding in me.

Those few second I really felt I had something more then my mind,called SUBCONSCIOUS which I had no control of,yet it did the right thing for me..."Drive straight" or is it maybe simple that my subconscious never directed me to drive straight...It just stopped all the signal to my brain..So that it stops working and thinking whether to go left or right or apply the break[none happened], just due the inertia of motion of my vehicle and the direction,I went straight and almost got saved from what could have been the most disastrous accident in my life.

Seconds after I cleared the collision, I had the guts to turn back and some angry HAND raised at the stupid cyclist...Fortunately there was no vehicle behind me for almost 500mts avoid any collision with the car oscillating wildly on road, Believe me I swear the car driver was the HERO, If he had it controlled his car that well to avoid hitting neither the cycle nor me...Maybe he say me behind or maybe not..Still GREAT WORK at the steering.

My blood pressure had jumped up and my face looked paIe,i managed to give a full smile to my parent and hide the tremor for a while. Thank god I had my parent home that day else I might have never recovered from it.

I calmed down only after narrating the story a few times quiet animated to my mom,followed by a nice coffee and a face wash....

It all came to an end...I was fine...But the incident has left a lasting impression in my head.
