I Believe in the Evil


This thought is based on good and evil. I in my short existence on this planet have realized the importance of good and evil. In many societies it is a complete taboo to utter the word evil, in some societies people are scared to be associated to the evil, and many women have lost their lives over false witch hunting which brings me to this thought.
I believe that evil is way more important than good because it is the degree of evil that defines how good a person is. Have we ever thought that if there was no evil there wouldn’t be any good. To strengthen my point I’ll give a few explanations.

Firstly good and evil are opposites, hence no evil-no good. But this is a simple explanation for the shallow minded people.
Secondly, and the much more deeper thought is that only because we do not commit certain deeds that are evil do we become good people. For example theft is an evil thing to do and if we do not steal we are good people. Hence we can see that it is the evil that defines the good. To further strengthen my point, if stealing wasn’t an evil thing to do, it would neither be a good thing to do, it would just be a normal part of our lives, leaving us un affected.
My third and final reason is that only because there is evil do we believe in the good and the god, we pray to god to protect us from evil, we pray for his help when we are in trouble, we ask him to forgive those who have done something evil against us.
I believe that there is a very strong balance of good and evil and we cannot change it. The more good we try to spread the more evil will too. All we can do is try and change the type of evil that we have to face.

Trust is a bitch!



Walking through those new doors,
Staring down at the cemented floors,

I walked on with no one by my side,
With every chance I got I took to hide.

To the loved ones I said my goodbye,
Just as the time went flying by,

Few months later I met a friend,
We never had enough time to spend.

Then one day came a test,
Thought I would pass it to the best,

Little did I know,
That the gap will grow.

With trust being skinned to bare,
I realized it was never there.

Is the Mosquito the Problem?


Today I was lying down on my bed trying to catch up on some lost sleep, it was three in the afternoon and my eyes were as droopy as they would be at 3 in the morning! The lights were off and the curtains were drawn, the weather was perfect and the silence was deafening.
I was already half way through being unconscious, and the hazy yet clearing picture of me driving my Aston Martin in the country side was forming. Eric Clapton playing on the stereo and a chilled bottle of beer was sitting in the door pocket. It was like eternal bliss. It was one of those dreams you wished came true.  
Just as this picturesque dream began to form and play in my dreams, I heard a buzzing sound. It was a stupid mosquito, I was pulled out of my dreams in Hollywood style, and now I was looking at a mosquito buzzing and circling around my head. Though tiny, yet causing the maximum number of human deaths in the world, this fragile looking creation of nature carries deadly diseases with ease, it can be considered no less that an Aston Martin, but it is not highly regarded as a topic to dream upon, more of a nightmare I can say .
Now my sleep was lost, lost and gone, nowhere to be found, all that remained in and around my head was that mosquito.
Staring blankly at the fan I realized something. I realized that problems are just like a mosquito. 
They keep coming when you least expect them to come, will keep nagging at you, and sometimes even suck the life out of you, they are deadly at times, and have a permanent presence. They remain around you and also take a large amount of place in your head! Just when you seem to relax and have the time of your life, problems destroy them for you. We end up not fulfilling a few of our dreams because problems in our lives do not allow us to reach our goals! The “smallest” of problems can cause the greatest of affects. And they keep coming back for you.
Now there are two ways of solving the mosquito crisis, by using chemical evaporators or nets, which only give us a sense of satisfaction, but no real satisfaction, because neither of them really solve the problem, they only give us temporary relief. The other way is the way of squishing them to their death, a smack of the hand or the newspaper gives us a permanent solution.
The same way we have two ways of combatting our problems, the first being- taking external help, help taken in kind or in cash, which only deters the problem. The other way is by squishing the problem just like the mosquito, this can be achieved by using our strength, will power and determination, eradicating the problem forever!
But it’s not all that easy, because just like unlimited mosquitoes, there are unlimited problems, they will continue to come, we just need to fight them off to live another day! Don’t lose hope, just like we don’t think much of a mosquito, we need to do the same for our problems, it makes it easier! When the mosquito comes to buzz around you, don’t cover your face with your blanket, it will always find a way in!

Ten reasons as to why I shouldn’t give up my life


A few days back I was asking my friends a simple question, with a not so simple situation. The shortness of the question made it sound irrelevant but it was more a matter of life and death. It was also my way of testing them as to how they felt about each other.

To everyone I asked the question “will you give your life for” followed by a series of names.  The answers I got were not very surprising; in fact I think I had a success rate of a hundred percent. They all would reply with a yes or a no. but little did they realize that the moment I put that question in their head, they had begun to think, “is this guy really worth dying for”. Even though they had already answered, they still thought about it, at least the ones who took it seriously. I saved them the embarrassment of asking them how they so easily chose to give up something they had cared for so much, the reason they ate, spoke, kept themselves happy, studied, wasn’t it ultimately for themselves? It was really easy for them to say that they would give their lives for the following people, but their brains were racking on as to why they should do such a thing.

It becomes even crazier when the time actually comes to give up your life for someone, only a few can live up to what they had said. These people are the ones who don’t want to weigh the consequences, because they love that person too much to actually start valuing their lives in comparison. These are the people who would actually give up their lives for someone.  It is these people who you can call true friends. They are very difficult to find. The rest of them will be standing there giving themselves ten reasons as to why they wouldn’t want to give up their lives rather than ten reasons as to why they should give up their lives. Have you asked yourself that question? 

Three years, three minutes, three seconds ogo...



Three years, three minutes, three seconds ogo;
you held my hand and never let go!


There was a smile on your face when I asked you out;
not once in your mind did you have a doubt.
 Girl I just wanna tell you that you look so pretty;
and everytime I think about you it makes me dizzy.


The hug you give me- its so warm,
even when I am mad it makes me calm!
Girl u said to me- I love your nose- its so long,
and for that- I wrote you this song.


Three years, three minutes, three seconds ogo;
you held my hand and never let go.


Girl I said I am going for long,
all I want from you is to be strong!
Thats when you told me you'll miss me,
and thats the first time you kissed me!


Your smile's the sunshine and the rain your tears,
 God I wish it doesnt rain for another fifty years!
It will be sunny and you- all smiles
and for that baby I'll swim a hundred miles!


Three years, three minutes, three seconds ogo;
you held my hand and never let go.


Now this songs really over!
But not our love cause its gonna last forever!

Three years, three minutes, three seconds ogo;
you held my hand and never let go!
