Away from this world, to a paradise we shall run. Our sails be unfurled, in dark, after sets the sun.

30 day challenge: Go to bed by 12:00!

-

Inspired by the 30 day challenge series done by Google's  Matt Cutts , I'm going to start my own series of monthly challenges and blog about it. In fact I have already started. It will hopefully also help me keep this blog active :) So my first 30 days challenge is to go to bed by 12:00 am every night. Since a long time I have been wanting to get enough sleep but I barely managed to get about 5 hours a day. Work, college and my personal projects consume a major portion  of my time everyday. Sleeping early will mostly create a backlog in my personal projects but I'm hoping to make it up by utilising my weekends. Hopefully getting enough sleep will make me more productive in my work during the day! I was also thinking about not using Internet after 11:30 pm, but since this is my first challenge I'm going to be a little easy on myself :)

I like the thoughts I think, while I walk!

Sometimes I simply walk... just to think like how I like to think... coz the thoughts which come to my mind while I walk are completely different from those which come while I'm sitting down somewhere... while I'm doing nothing... May be it's because it feels like a real journey while I walk... each step feels like a step towards some destination that exists in my mind... every single thought makes so much sense... feels like every single thought is hand picked for me by someone... to complete my journey... may be :)

Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

The last seven years of my life seem to have passed in the blink of an eye... the experiences I've had... the things I've seen...the choices I made... When I look back.. I can roughly define everything with just a few pictures and thoughts which come to my mind. Through these years... life has taught me a thousand things about it... I've had moments when I felt like on the top of the world... and moments when I felt I have nothing at all... Life hasn't been fair at all times, but today it still feels good :)

Lifted like a free bird..

There are days when I get off from the train… feeling totally tired and drained… taking small steps… as I walk home… a music of memories plays repeatedly in my mind….… my heart feels lifted like a bird… and I glide back home with the wind.

A moment of wonders and magic

Sometimes I sit quietly in peace… listening to the sounds that surround me… my mind suddenly drifts away… to some place full of wonders and magic … I feel as if a beautiful mind is caring for me … listening to my deepest thoughts and feelings.. And everything around me feels perfect in that moment…
