procrastination at its zenith

why should i do it and if i do it will it be of any use? leave aside doing it today there's lot of time and why not do it tomorrow. someone has rightly said," You may delay, but time will not". i may not be sure of anything else but one thing is for certain that i have evolved as a great procrastinator in the last few years . the situation has exacerbated and has begun to affect my day to day life. there is not a single day that goes by without delaying things. nothing seems to rejuvenate me and bring back myself to non procrastinating state. so leaving myself to the very same state and ending with the words of don marquis who said,"Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday"

the road not taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference

...Robert Frost

jinhe naaz hai hind pe woh kahan hai....

with reinvigorated spirits today the nation celebrates 60th republic day but one question that needs an answer is that, is it worth the celebrations or is it just to commemorate the republic notion of our country. sad to say but the fact is, not much has changed and seeing the present state of affairs nothing more can be expected. the way things are moving at snails pace it would take centuries for our country to get rid of all the evils that plague our society. the gap between the rich and poor will be perpetual and poverty will be ubiquitous. education is still not reachable to everyone and scenario of unemployment has exacerbated. are we going to move on like this? do we need to think on this? is this not our duty ? being responsible citizens it is but who says we are responsible..we are mere selfish beings who are busy in the race to outrun each other forgetting that there is a beautiful country out there which looks forward to us to do something for it . whatever be it but we are a patriotic lot and never miss on days like these to show our patriotism by visiting flag hoisting ceremonies and listening patriotic songs and then give a damn for rest of the days until another republic day comes. i'd rather prefer not to attend these ceremonies to show my false patriotism and take it as just another holiday because that would be like being one side of the coin rather than trying to be both .

the impromptu nature of my life

here i am very close to the end of my graduation and nothing seems to have enlightened me throughout all those years that have gone by in trying to make myself a deserving engineer. not to mention the present disgruntled state i am in which is all the more making it difficult for me to be decisive about anything in life. it all sums up to one thing and it is to let myself flow freely into this wilderness and hope that life takes it's due course just like a river. i believe that anything you get through preparation is not worth achieving but the very impromptu nature of getting things is in itself thrilling .so just hoping that something strikes me in my free flow and changes my course to something satisfactory and worth doing.
