I’ve clearly run out of suitable titles for my posts. This one is another example. You might think this post would be about Coldplay’s free concert album, or my political views, or driving, or something else. But it isn’t. It isn’t about anything, in general.
How do you react when you meet someone who you think is greatness personified? As in, somebody who is what you want to be in the future? Do you feel happy about meeting him/her? Do you ask him/her for tips and ideas? Do you want him/her to guide you? I don’t. Instead, I envy that person because, somewhere, I get a feeling that I’ll never be able to become what he/she is and so, I start hating him/her. Hating to the point of trying to find faults in them to prove that they are not so great after all. It’s very difficult to inspire me. This could be one of the reasons why all of my dad’s so called inspirational students have never been able to work their magic on me. I will like them initially, but when they go on blabbering about how they did this, and they did that, I’ll lose interest and start hating them for what they’ve achieved. Whether this is jealousy, or lack of self confidence, I don’t know. What I do, however know is that I’m not a very happy person by nature. My happiness is very momentary, it never lasts for more than a couple of hours at a stretch. Left to myself, I would probably sit and curse everything that may be keeping me from achieving something but I would never do anything about that. Did I tell you I also despise self help books? I don’t like anybody giving me any kind of advice. I know it’s good most of the times but I don’t really like it. I don’t like people telling me what to do but I won’t do anything revolutionary myself, either. Where does such a person go? Well, maybe I’ll be able to tell you some 20 years from now.
I don’t have any classes today and still I’m not happy. I just won 2 god damned laptops in an online competition and yes, you guessed it, I’m not happy. I did, however, shout and dance and wake up a couple of neighbors when I realised I’d won. But that excitement was short lived. It’s just like I told you – I’m not a very happy person by nature. The next post, if it happens, would probably be about those two laptops and hopefully, it’ll be a happy one.
PS: Go Federer! Kick some Nadal butt!
You lucky, lucky bastard.
Yeah, hopefully, the next post would be a happier one.
So unhappy at such a young age! :(
the title reminded me of a serial..left right left..had a good tune..

n ya self help books suck! especially something like how to get ideas? :p
oh oh!!
I understand that you’re not happy and all, but more importantly, watcha doing with them laptops?? :O

Cheer up buddy!!! Life is not so bad after all :)

@perx: girls aren’t the solution to everything.. in my case, they always end up complicating things.. :P
@jalal

Heh yeah you should really try to cheer up :) Woohoo 2 laptops lucky u !
You Lucky Dawg!! :-P
@Perx- @Reema- so would it be ok if he was sad at an older age?
LOL :-P
No comments on the ‘being unhappy’ part………time heals……
After a nice blog,good writing ability and 2 lappies ppl someone is still nt happy.god where is the world going
There are other things to cheer about. I guess you need to explore what that ‘other’ thing is.
Feel free to hate people – but only if it makes you happy. :P
If you are not so happy with laptops, you could try donating them for eternal salvation and spiritual happiness in life afterward (since you are doomed in this one as you claim. :)
Okay, kid. Time for a new post! :)
You remind me of myself. I am just the same. Most of the time, i keep on cursing people/objects/my luck/anything within my imagination’s reach :P Self destructive, thats what i am. Btw, congrats for those laptops….
OMG, two laptops!! Whoa! Congrats! What was the competition about?
And it’s ok to hate the world and feel morose. It makes you normal. I am kinda mistrustful of all those sunshine-y people who have a Cheshire cat grin on their mugs all the time. As for all those inspirational/greatness personified type of people, it’s no good wasting time on them. I hate their self-satisfied smug faces and the whole oh-look-what-I’ve-achieved-you-loser type of attitude. Inspiration doesn’t come from any outside source anyway.
