New year doesn't feel new yet

"We're all looking for answers
In career, in life, in everything
Sometimes the answers we're looking for have been hiding just beneath the surface
Other times, we find answers when we didn't even realize we were asking the question
Sometimes the answers can catch us completely by surprise
And sometimes, even when we find the answers we've been looking for, we are still left with a whole hell of a lot of questions."
(one word's been changed from the above quote, but yeah)

It reaches another level of hilarity when I see the kind of problems that one pinpoints and makes a mountain of, even with all that one could possibly ask for
How one can be so indifferent to the things happening around in your own country.. But at the same time, you make such a big deal about it when it comes to you knowing of what's happening. So, obviously, empathy has no trace here at all.

When you present well, but you're so filthy backstage, that it depresses me as to how messy you could be overall and never ever do anything about that part at all. And may I add, once the show's started and is over, there is obviously no looking back at what the clean up is like/should be, because, duh, you wouldn't be the one doing it after all. The dirty work is left by you for someone inferior to you to do. And it never made sense to you to take a peep into what that's like/step in that person's shoe, because oh, you've never exactly had to do that in life before. I wouldn't say, the person is lucky here, but it's unfortunate that even when you pretend you see so much around, you don't absorb any of it, you adsorb it.

When you say things on another person's behalf when you can't/won't do shit. It makes a part of me die, because I know that the person who'd be doing it all at the end would never be taking the credit for it, but gets tired, and works like there won't be another chance to make the best of your talent, or perhaps, the person/guest happy again. It makes me feel sorry for one who makes the promises and is all talk, but you would still go on about it because you know that eventually, someone will do the main job even if you don't take the slightest part in it.
Respect for the person who does it all and never asks for credit. Yes, we all know that's selflessness. But selflessness, according to me, requires a certain amount of courage, I've seen in barely two or three people in my life so far.

When you put on a good show about your concern, and I don't disagree that you don't mean it, you do, but what you just do not understand is that the other person, also concerned, was never trying and never will, to compete. He/she simply, I repeat, simply cares. It leaves me speechless at one point too, when you just refuse to see how it's never going to be about who cares more.

When you know you can't deliver one fourth of what you promise/talk about. Why promise?

When you find the other person that incompetent to do things you think you're best at, why don't you do them yourself to begin with?

What makes you think you're the only person who cares?
Just because you want the world to revolve around you doesn't mean you'd be the only person revolving around the person you apparently love. There are others who love that person too.

One of the things I haven't mentioned about Delhi so far in the almost half year that I spent there (and if isn't an obvious point being stated), is how fascinating the crowd of the city is inside a mall/theatre. It really makes me think at some point, as to how much time is spent by one, everyday, to make trivial decisions of day to day life. And how something that maybe of utmost importance to a resident of one city maybe of no importance to another.
And I don't deny that I'm not a part of it, but sure, I put my own opinion before anyone else who's capable of controlling my state of mind.

My posts here are mostly random. Incidents, situations in life.
Yes, no names mentioned. Of places, humans, whatever else. I like it that blurred in writing. And clear in my head. Crystal.

That awkward moment when you realize that all this while, you've been in love with the idea of being in love with someone and not really the actual person!!
#EpicMomentOfRealization

There is obviously no humanity left in our country with all that's happening around..
There is a colossal need for change in the mentality of the people!

And a dog (pug named Romeo) was asleep on my lap while I typed a little bit of the above :)

Winters can kill!
