Solitude is bliss. It’s a necessity. I love solitude. That’s because I am not scared of meeting myself. I like to look myself in the eye. Discuss my shortcomings with myself. Exult on my successes. Bitch about everybody and anybody. There was this time when I was afraid of myself. Afraid of facing myself. That was because I tried too hard to hide SO many things from myself. I was always petrified that I would challenge myself. I would fight with myself and all those unpleasant truths would surface and shove me into perpetual depression and gloom. But I stood up to my fears. I realized all these truths were unpleasant all right, but they weren’t bigger than me. It was all in my mind. They were big wannabes. They just knew how to intimidate. They never could actually do anything to me. I just had to stand up to them. Gather up my shattered courage and stand up to them. I had been stupidly holding on to the past, superstitiously believing that it was saving me from these truths. But it never did. Shutting these truths and fears behind doors didn’t lock them out. They kept banging on the doors and grabbed out with their bony hands through the cracks. They never let me be at peace. But I stood up. And faced them. Beat them. And now, atleast I am not afraid of myself. I like to be with me. In fact I am my best. I cant do without me.

Life is all about running. Keep running. Don’t stop. If you stop, everything simply runs past! Don’t stop. Run. Leave people and things behind. If you don’t, they are going to leave you behind. And I am young. So I can run faster. Make hay while the sun shines. Run along. Run as fast as you can. Which way? The direction in which you see the light. That’s the loneliest road. Rarely people take it. Traffic is scarce here. You hardly come across anybody. And its very rough here. Not like the other one everybody else took. But this is the right road. And when you are running on this road, everybody can see you. I am young. So I shouldn’t stop. There will come a day when I wont be able to run anymore. I don’t want to be regretting today then. But why are we running? I don’t know. I have no idea. Is all this running going to get us anywhere? I don’t know. Right now, it just feels great to run. And I want to run along.

Heat em up

Its been a hot H O T summer and the heat is still on! Exams over, industrial training looming in the horizon, its quite an exciting summer as well. Exams? Lets not get there. All I have to say is that I THINK its not going to be six points this time around! Well there is a LOT more that’s been happening. Take for example, the return of “little Jacky Paper”. Don’t worry! This is an interactive blog, you will soon figure out who THAT is. Then there have been early morning drives. And loads and loads of jogging around! But I must say, in the end, I am happy. Not entirely happy, but I have taken many positive steps forward in life.

Here is a song I heard recently. Its really old. And its funny. But its got inner meanings. And I could connect to it. It kinda tells my story. Well the story of my past. Its different now…

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,
Little jackie paper loved that rascal puff,
And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff. oh

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.

Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail
Jackie kept a lookout perched on puffs gigantic tail,
Noble kings and princes would bow wheneer they came,
Pirate ships would lower their flag when puff roared out his name. oh!

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.

A dragon lives forever but not so little boys
Painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys.
One grey night it happened, jackie paper came no more
And puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.
His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain,
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.
Without his life-long friend, puff could not be brave,
So puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave. oh!

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee.


It really amazes me nowadays how immature I had been. I also feel great when I realize how lucky I have been. Not everybody gets to carry such great memories with them. And what I had thought earlier, is being disproved.

But truly, what made my summer this year is the limited edition SUMMER AXE DEODRANT!

Summer Wine

Strawberries cherries and an angel�s kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things

I walked in town on silver spurs that jingled to
A song that I had only sang to just a few
She saw my silver spurs and said lets pass some time
And I will give to you summer wine
Ohh-oh-oh summer wine

Strawberries cherries and an angel�s kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine
Ohhh-oh summer wine

My eyes grew heavy and my lips they could not speak
I tried to get up but I couldn�t find my feet
She reassured me with an unfamiliar line
And then she gave to me more summer wine
Ohh-oh-oh summer wine

Strawberries cherries and an angel�s kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine
Mmm-mm summer wine

When I woke up the sun was shining in my eyes
My silver spurs were gone my head felt twice its size
She took my silver spurs a dollar and a dime
And left me cravin� for more summer wine
Ohh-oh-oh summer wine

Strawberries cherries and an angel�s kiss in spring
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you summer wine
Mmm-mm summer wine
