Trying to call my life, but all I get is the voicemail
The Explorer | Don't be driven away by the subtitle. After all, I might tell you what message I left on the voicemaiil. But that comes later. If you are expecting some honey dipped or hair raising story, let me forewarn you, I am no Sippy, Chopra or Ghai; its gonna be as bland as the American food I am putting up with. Have always wondered over names, their meanings, and how they affect people. I know what the bard said, and who am I to disagree, yet, I think of it again... Thoughts...our thoughts, do we give them names? Our values, beliefs, morals...they are perhaps the best of our possessions. they dont have a name tag, yet they are always with us. Why would the same not apply to our friends and family? Isnt the thought more important than its physical manifestation? Perhaps... I guess thats what the bard meant, the insignificance of a name. if you are thnking of someone dear, what conjures up in your mind, is it a face, a name, or just the thought is enough to make you smile... If you have put up with me so far, perhaps you would understand my intent in calling this page 'untitled'. The thoughts that drove me to write these lines, and the thoughts that drive my self. subjectivity is not something an engineer is expected dissertate on, for rationale is linked to objectivity, still...just goes on to show that the name on my degree certificate, is just that, a name. Let's leave it at that, and explore the subjectivity of our untitled lives. P.S. If you noticed, I was indeed objective in that last few lines! :-) And if I ever had a one-to-one with my Life, this is what I intend to discuss. |
