22nd Jan 2015

Another Saraswati puja day approaches. Yesterday Koni from our complex came to give the card for Saraswati puja and collect the money. I was thinking that maybe this time they were not coming to collect the puja subscription at all .Paranoia attack! All of us like to think that the world revolves around us.
Big Boss8 has become quite boring now with the predictable fights and flare ups between the contestents. Yesterday they were given a task where the contestents were asked to keep a button pressed while standing. The contestent who was able to keep the button pressed for the longest time would be declared the winner and would get 25lakhs as prize money. Pritam won the task in the end as he could keep standing for nearly 36 hours straight without sleep or food. I was wondering if i had been given the task how long could i have kept standing. Maybe only 5 or 6 hours at the most and that too with great difficulty.
It really is a test of endurance more than anything else.
So many things come to my mind and I keep thinking that I should write this down in this diary. But when the time comes to pen the thoughts i forget about it. Yesterday i suddenly wanted to pen a poem. But i forget what the lines were. It went something like this

What a strange story this life of mine is!

When i got what i wanted! Alas! I realised it was not

What i was looking for all along!

Money, a little bit of it, Respect and love

All are things, a bit of which i have sampled

In this life of mine!

What am i looking for then ?

What am i still thirsty for?

Why do i yearn with a hopeless longing

And dream of impossible things!

There can never be true satiety

When i drink from this cup of mortal sins
