I am a spider

Yes I do think I am a Spider.
No not the one that goes up and down scyscrapers in Newyork, saving life and doing amazing wonderful great things.
But I am definitely the spider that taught Raja Vikramaditya the lesson in the cave.
I try to get up the same wall again and again.
Slip a many times, get tired and enjoy the free fall sometimes.
Sometimes I get kicked by my own, sometimes an unknowing stranger pushes me in his hurry.
But I am trying.
I am very close to become the master of the wall.
Atleast this is the wall, that no ones gonna argue with me about.
About reachin heights, this is the one, I am definitely sure to scale one day.

To think what one should not

A novice coming into a really big demanding position.
Enthralling as it may sound, its a case of misplaced thoughts.
Atleast this is what happened to me once.

Following is a slightly "metaphoric" situation for the one that happened:
I was in army.
Was called up to serve in the WAR.
Performed really well.
Gunned down many enemy men.
Saved a few of my own mens lives.
Came out of age on certain instances, turning the tide for my country.
Then we lost a few men. A few injured, a few released from the pain.
The leaders were scarce and some new leadership was badly needed.
I was given the opportunity.
This meant to carry out some high profile surveillance mission.
Now what should I think at this moment...
Why was I thinking about the success I have achieved.
Why was I thinking about the great things I will do.
Why wasnt there a caution alarm ringing aloud in my brain...

Today I saw a colleague being in the same state.
Seems that I have realised where it all went wrong or rather I actually learnt a few lessons from that.

Questions n thought

Hi readers,
Heres a small introduction of 'me':
I am an engineering graduate from Mumbai.
I am currently working in Stamford,CT,USA for TCS(Tata) on a Genworth Financial project.
I am an avid reader. I love mystery as well as fiction. I love to dig deep into information on esoteric phenomena.
I do like to keep myself updated on technology, being in IT I am expected to do more.
I have a large apetite for sports and music.
Love cricket and football. Love Lata and Rafi.

Questions n Thoughts
I love to read, and do get involved in the storyline and the characters frequently. Love to think over whatever I have read. Somewhere in my thought process I link totally discreet events and try to make more meaning out of either events.
Reading about current affairs has lately inspired an urge to decipher the real information from the "News". The belief that "News" are adulterated for more TRPs and under existing pressure form government and extra government power bodies, has sunk in too deep to believe what I see, without a thought.
This thought process does give birth to many "Questions". These are basically those information clusters that have not yet been revealed to the thinking brain. And since the thought process cant continue without the information it asks for, starts another interesting but painful cycle of "Search".
This blog intends to put forward my thoughts and get more information from my readers.
Seems to be a pretty selfish propaganda, but I think its fair in the world of "Right to Information"
