Inspiration and Musings
So, I'm posting something after nearly 2 complete years. What was I doing the last couple of years? I don't know; A little bit of everything is a perfect answer. And oh, I now refuse to shave and always maintain a killer beard. 2014 can forever be marked as the most important year of my life for two reasons - One, I finally have my own business going which is generating actual revenue and most importantly, I am not tied down anymore and to put it in not-so-nice way, I separated from my wife. When you are a true blue aquarian, you tend to wander quite a bit and let the mind take a little bit of a backseat. I ended my marriage because I felt unhappy every single day and I did not think for the reasons of social stigma and "doing the right thing" I should continue with it. Now, continuing to what inspired me to this very post.
I spent a lot of time with someone this weekend, and I was so inspired by the courage, the personality and the mind-numbing-cuteness, that I really just felt like writing. I mean, the person was so cool, that "I", a sex loving hetero pig (deep down we know that all men are pigs, so let's not pretend), enjoyed spooning. I KID YOU NOT! I could talk about things like symmetry, zen culture, musings and just have a good conversation. Like all good things, it had to end because we live far away and the visit was very brief but I might have struck myself with some much needed catalyst. I mean, I listened to a couple of episodes of a pod-cast her best friend and her do and I found myself asking, what was the last really creative thing that I did? Life has come down to playing my playstation, reading once in a while and sitting on the laptop 8 hours a day working or watching TV shows. Weekends just fly by with alcohol and friends and I told myself, starting this Monday July 11th 2016, I should engage the creative side and try to do things the un-conventional way, like a 18 year old Sarat used to do (a side story that I can write a whole book on).
No post of mine would be complete without the great Mr. Jobs and like he said in his Stanford commencement speech, "Here's to the misfits, the rebels, the round pegs in the square holes..." I need to keep thinking I can change the world and I just MIGHT.
