Not Camera Shy Anymore! :)

Finally! One less on my wish list. Have been dreaming and craving for it over 5 years now. One reason to brighten up the weekend :)

I've realised I am my own worst enemy. Am the only one curtailing my freedom. Need to free up my own mind against my self imposed restrictions. The guilt, the masochistic streak, the shackles need to be thrown out. Period.

Can't Stop This Thing We Started

So many faces online....multiple blogs for multiple personalities.
  1. The Toon Side
  2. The Dark Side
  3. The Blank Side

The dark side on a white background and the white side on a black background! What does it reflect?

Clarity or Confusion?

Irony or Contradiction?

Or just plain schizo?

Either way, learn to make peace with it.

Still...a reflection of a cluttered mind?

Multiple email ids...clutter, more clutter, and clutter everywhere!

S-I-M-P-L-I-F-Y your life!

Circles of Life

Sometimes I feel like a hamster in a cage. Lately, the inner stagnant frustration has been building up and making me acutely aware of how status quo my life has become. The only thing I seem consistent at is going round and round in circles. Just making me feel more caged by the day.

^^This is how it feels like. Home-work-home. Literally. That's not just my routine. But my whole life. Even stagnation has to reach some boiling point! Or is it too late since I'm at the 'point of no return'?


If only the caged routine had a bit more color to it, it might have made things a bit more bearable. Some neon hues to dress it up every once in a while. Life is neither colorful, nor black or white anymore. Just one plain old consistent shade of grey.

What would it take to infuse some fresh color into my world? Would the tangible, physical visual work? Or is it some inner cleansing of old worn and weary attitudes, thoughts, and habits that need rehauling?

For now, though, despite the apparent self-induced gloom, I take solace in the fact that amusement and bemusement still has a place in my mind. Laughing at myself is the one quality that keeps the sanity (what's left of it) intact. Nothing like a toon to get the smiles to return, punny or funny, they all help! :-)
