Single & Looking – Part I
There is no point taking life too seriously, you are never going to come out of it alive anyways.
The day had to arrive but I was a good procrastinator I thought we were still together, but I was wrong as always. I dont think the climax of my Luv Life is worth more than 2 lines, yes I m angry, infact not at all.
So I m not gonna write nething abt wat happened in my life rather will write something which I feel is more important. This post goes into max number of categories, first of all in Love yeah becos this is the end, Me-8-IIIT I dont know y I have included this just becos everything for last 4 years and for next year and a half is connected with IIIT, College Special, although fked its still special, Not-Lovable, I created this one in Nov/Dec I dont remember and finally into a new category for which this is the first post, Philosophy. Yeah I like Philosophy, specially my own.
So wats important, rather wats more important than the only Luv Life I had, hmmm. Every single day in my life I only had one thing to achieve, Happiness of the Day. Seems to be philosophical, becos it is, and thats wat I tried to do all my school life and I guess in my College too. Actually it all comes from my parents specially mother, when I used to leave for school (School Bus, then Bicycle and then Bike) there was not a single day when she did not come out at the door to tell me the same thing which I was hearing for all these days I had been going to the school, Dhyan se rehna, khoob masti karna. I guess I did take that seriously and went ahead with that. When I came across Osho stuff thru U know who, I could clearly see what my mom told me was same as Live in the moment. Be Alert, and thats why I liked it more. So I guess my Happiness is the most important thing to me in all world along with my parents. I know I know, U mite think it all changed with a single break up but believe me I never changed my priorities. I have stayed with it (happiness) longer than I did with my gf…oops x-gf. ok read this then I will tell u smthing more….
Happiness is always herenow. It belongs to the present. Now say to the mind: “I am not worried about the future at all because if I can be happy now, this moment, I can be happy forever. The future never comes as future, it always comes as the present. Now I know the secret of being happy in the present, so why bother about the future? Tomorrow will not be tomorrow, it will come as today. And I have the key to open the door. This moment I am happy; I know how to be happy in this moment. All moments that will come will come always like this moment.

Yes, Its always here. Ok by this time there wud be a good number of ppl trying to differ on the idea of Happiness mentioned in the above couple of paras. They feel this is a temporary state of a looser dumped person like me but believe me its not, neither its temporary, becos Its always here.
When I look back at my footmarks, I c, I am at a similar stage as I was in High School i.e. arnd Class 10th and a year from then. Less things on Mind, Things I know about, Yes yes yes, U shud have a very clear idea of what you are going to deal with, Good Friends, yes they matter, the only difference in this category is, I used to stop my school friends on some things then and now I see my friends doing that to me not exactly stop but you know wat, enjoying the work (actual work, hello remember we are here for our Undergraduation Husshh yeah I know its hard but u got to do it
) I loved my studies then and now too, Single, yeah thats important.
I guess in last couple of months my life has taken another good amount of turn, I seem to be looking forward to a lot of things I never thought about like my carrer aka JOB which gives Money, planning how to spend my life, The Learning Process, Partying,yes I was never a party person and similar ones. Not that all these come from the shock :O of being dumped but rather from the experience of last couple of months, I hate that period from 22nd Nov (My Bday) to 13th Feb. I cant hate her, just becos I cant hate neone, but its just that I dont like being sad and wasting my time thinking abt something which is making me think more than I want to think about it and believe me later is worse. I definately learned that Thinking is Injurious, no one ever made a good decision just becos he/she thought a lot. Go with your instincts as long as u believe in the idea of Not regretting abt the past. According to me a decently smart decision is the easiest phase of dealing with any situation becos the suffering is still to come.
I dont like writing long posts, so I wud rather split this into 2 or may be more….
atlast to say I am Happy and yeah ofcourse Single and Looking……adios

Don’t you have an interesting life?
@Lalitha :: I guess you are missing the whole point, I m Happy.
@Sines:: Hi Sines, Hmm Yeah I do have one !!! I did not understand where that que. come from ??
That was a very beautiful quote. If we can really understand that and follow it, i think we would all be very happy.
I think you’r doing a good job of following it too
keep going!
I don’t think anybody in the wrong profession can be happy no matter how much he thinks about the present. Maybe you would like to have a look at my link.
that sounds mature and happy.
its not just “Not regretting abt the past”, it should be “not living in past”, that might include all happy moments as well. I am not talking about forgeting the past, but living in the present. We all like to think about past, but it should not be so much that we start living in past. i hope you are understanding what i mean. its same a case with future also.
and i feel happy for you coming out of it so happily, and starting living the present.
carpe diem
@smr:: Yeah it shud (sound mature and happy), after a year and more of frndship(??) with u. Yes “not living in the past” is much better and infact thats egjactly what I wanted to express. adious
@Neha:: Ok !!!
