the un-prepared self

In reality, sorrow is the catalyst for inducing sympathy, respect, and courage, and that’s the plight because it’s dipped in pity. You really don’t know what you are up to and friends neither do I. We are just driven by our instincts but sadly that instinct is coated with some confused thoughts inspired from around.

Superiority comes with purity and not power. 

It comes with understanding the consequences without searching for a raw reference. Let’s stop searching for brutal examples that we see around to shake our conscience, and just start doing something that helps us become pure. 

Try to see the white canvas behind the painted world.

The past history including yesterday is filled with wrongdoing and every time I encounter such incidents, I try to search that “un-prepared self” and expect it to do a miracle. And as the tough time passes, I get back to what I am good at… exploring “I”, “me” and “self”

Helpless with choice, is what I derive from my actions but with hopes to be "selfless" someday.

So friends, as I always say, keep exploring and until next time get some introspect and gauge your preparedness of selflessness. Ending this post with one of my poems which I think is apt to the context of the post.

Effigy

I never got a chance to burn my effigy, but
making responsible the latest reason around, I should take a chance;

The protest, the fire, the anguish, the desire, ain’t I not responsible 
If not, still, will you lend me your sin;

I don’t know why I generate this strange pull,
but I think I am responsible;

A good-hearted lad, no debate, no quarrel,
with thoughts of only me, my family, my friends;

And the only fire that I always had, qualifies just to burn cigarettes.
am I not responsible, What You Say?

And today, I do realize that writing this, doesn’t make me acquit 
A reason so strong, that stops me burning my effigy;

Frankly Frankenstein

Friends , it's utterly true that we want to progress but how much is too much is the small question in this big wide world. As technology tangents to a whole new level, each passing present profoundly preaches that what is done is a way too small and what's coming is the next best. As information become less informed to humans and more to robots it's quite a difficult phase that we humans are stepping into. As a part of the coder's life,  I live each new day writing scripts that would automate a thing or two. It's hay day for many like me but presumably, we are preparing an invisible workforce that surely would rise up and question our existence. So you may ask, it's early days of. AI. And it's a long way to go. So not to worry as you sip that coffee. It may sound more like a SciFi flick, but rest assured the future is closer than we think. With bots becoming commonplace, soon we will have "fleshless friends", who will know you before you ...

Watch Keeper

This was originated from the word woecce which meant "watchman", because it was used by town watchmen to keep track of their shifts. Yes you guessed it right, today's point of discussion is "watches".  You may be curious by now, why such a topic? I don't have time but I do have a watch. Well, never ever did "Peter Hele" knew during the 15th century that his invention would in the 21st century spread that ripple around.  Here comes iWatch, supposedly the next big venture from Apple. Well, it's not only Apple who wants a pie of it, but joining with equal pride are the guys from "Pebble", "Sony", "MotoACTV" and many more. And why not, the trend is catching up like wild-fire and you never know it may just peek from your sleeves when some asks you "What's the time by your iWatch?" … till then keep exploring ...

tic-Tech-toe

It sounds like an interesting point in the world of technology where innovations almost covering the complete spectrum of life which ever way we see. And it's not only about today, the coming days will be equally interesting and breathtaking. To start with "Apple". This company has been up to an innovation spree, and so just looking at the link will give a fare idea of the patents this company has filed and these patents will be a reality in the days to come in the form of Phone, Tablet, TV, Watch or a complete new product line. Slowly but silently "Samsung" is also coming up with some really cool innovations in the field of flexible displays under the brand name " YOUM "  thus introducing to the world a whole new form-factor with endless possibilities. So, as Google gears up with "KitKat" the next Android OS after "Jelly Beans" and also it's much awaited Google Glass , Motorola with it's latest phone " ...
