EVERYONE IS A PROSTITUTE

" anyone who lives in their own world are mad. i mean people who are different from others"

"like you?"

"you have einstein, saying that there was no time or space, just a combination of two.or columbus, insisting that on the otherside of the world lay not an abyss but a continent. or Edmund Hillary, convinced that a man could reach the top of the everest. or the Beatles, who created an entirely different sort of music and dressed like people from other time. those people and thousands of others all lived in their own world.


That was a small conversation from the book " veronica decides to die" by my hero paulo coelho. the so called 'normal people' may find it very funny, certainly not me nor i'm in any way 'normal.' well what does being normal mean??? being normal is doing all the bullshit just because the whole society does it. being normal is playing the game even though you know that you are not enjoying it. i hate playing those games.....i have been criticized by many people because of my unwillingness to mingle with NORMAL PEOPLE. let me tell you i'm not against socilaizing but i can't talk nonsense. i would rather talk about books or music or a good movie.....not about abhi-ash wedding or indian idol results...that doesn't interest me at all. that's the way i'm. i cannot give fake smiles and say that i'm enjoying the conversation.when i feel like pulling my hair. when i go out what i see is that almost 98% of the people on this earth are prostitutes.....prostitutes do what they do even if they despise the work because they need money.....in the same way we act normal to" fit in." Thats what paulo coelho is talking about in the above conversation....every legend had something different kind of madness in him. but these eccentricities are what made him/her a legend.
i would love to be remembered as a weird, mad and an individualistic person rather than being known as a 'normal' person.....because i don't want to regret on my death bed during my last breath that i've spent my whole life thinking about others opinions about me and losing my powerful right:
TO DO THINGS MY WAY
The song "my way" by FRANK SINATRA says it all:
And now, the end is here
And so I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case,
of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full
I traveled each and ev'ry highway
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do and saw it through without
exemption
I planned each charted course, each careful step along the
byway
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
and did it my wayI've loved,
I've laughed and criedI've had my fill,
my share of losing
And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way,
"Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I did it my way
"For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way!
Yes, it was my way

FRANKNESS V/S FLATTERY



Some people say that today more than the obvious talent the most important art required is flattery. well i totally disagree with the statement. it is totally against my principles. i totally believe in the line in the book "jane eyre" by charlotte bronte:




" frankness and rudeness is better than flattery."




but my question is that do we really need flattery as our arms and ammunition when we enter the dog eat dog professional world??????


in the book fountainhead by ayn rand, there are 2 talented architects: peter keating and my hero howard roark. peter keating becomes very popular due to his flattery techniques while roark is more talented than peter but is still unknown!!!!! was flattery the difference????? it might be but i still think that if you work hard and speak when its needed then there is no need of flattery. i experienced this even in my own life: on eof my colleugues is a very sweet talker and so she is liked and appreciated by the whole college. she even takes the credit from her group because this wonderful artistic quality.BUT ALL THIS DOESN'T MEAN THAT I'M AGAINST PARTICIPATION AND MAKING YOUR VOICE HEARD....BUT THERE IS A THIN LINE BETWEEN MAKING UR VOICE HEARD AND SHOUTING....................




NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS I'LL NEVER BOW DOWN TO THIS RULE.....WHAT ABOUT YOU GUYS?????????????????????????????????????

WHERE IS THE NEXT CAMUS?????????????????

Today's world is full of unnecessary hype and overrated "HEROES". well are these people really heroes?? that brings me to the formality.....definition.i dont believe in defining something because when we define something we restrict its scope.but since i have to get some readers i have to define. hero for me is a person who is very comfortable being himself, a person whose legs are pulled by mediocre people because of his"different approach" to life but still fights on and on.but where is originality today???? where are bands like pink floyd and metallica? where are movies like life is beautiful or dirty dozen or great escape??? where is the next bob dylan???. we can't exactly say that there is no creativity in this world. there are surely some guys out there.but my question is can these guys keep their creativity's candle blowing????



ANURAG KASHYAP






this guy has great talent but he is discouraged by media, the law and almost everyone. he is 10 times better than yash chopra or karan johar.he is a legend when it comes to scriptwriting and storytelling.




RABBI SHERGILL






this guy can beat t our indian idols like ABHIJIT SAWANT or SANDEEP ACHARYA on any given day. but does anyone care about such unbelieveble talent????



what about good writers man??? where are books like the alchemist or the cathcher in the rye or the evergreen "the stranger." where is the next ALBERT CAMUS???????????

MISS TOPPER V/S MISS AVERAGE


There were 2 girls...1 was ms.topper n the other was ms.average.Ms topper was an walking encyclopedia while ms. average just passed through the exams with average marks. they both look for a good job in the professinal world. surprisingly ms.topper has a difficulty getting a good job.


THE REASON: THROUGHOUT HER ACADEMIC LIFE MS.TOPPER MEMORIZED GLUT OF DEFINITIONS: 500 MILLION WORDS OF SOMEONELSE'S THOUGHTS!!!!!!!!

All the problems of the world could be settled easily if men were only willing to think. The trouble is that men very often resort to all sorts of devices in order not to think, because thinking is such hard work. - Thomas J. Watson

TORTURE IN D NAME OF EDUCATION !!!!

this weekend i lost my only hope. our professors say dat dey r not concerned about our thoughts.they told us without an ounce of shame that all they want is the same bullshit that is there in the books....what will we do when we enter the professioanl arena where we are expected to have our own views and ideas????? will we quote mr.greenberg n mr.baron when well b asked about our views on organizational behaviour.yes these authors are no doubt are legends but there is a thin line between being inspired by others thoughts and copying others thoughts..........
