Suicide

Everytime I hear or read about incidences of suicides, it saddens me and frustrates me. Many people in most war striken or poverty striken nations fight against all odds just to survive while those who generally suicide are victims of depression or excessive emotions and not because of poverty.

Clearly, there must be a logic that can explain the madness of the crowd driven by the misconception that money can buy everything. Money never bought happiness in true sense and we are constantly reminded in news and views.

All these only reminds me that my King's concept of GNH is greatly divine.If only there were followers who could perceive the divinity to purely embrace it instead of just making it an academic topic of research only to complicate with theories, statistical deductions and the like!

Inspirations

As I was browsing for some tech videos and watching them on google video, I came across professor Randy Pausch of Carnegie-Mellon University. Listening to his inspirational lectures revived my faith in humanity that there are people so selfless and so dedicated as this professor. Unfortunately, his departure was the saddest thing that hit me... why does great people have to be gone so soon.???

goodbye

As our lips touched for one last time
Bid goodbye finally and followed our paths
Back to where our destiny has sealed us

My eyes teary, my heart pounding hard
As I muttered along the way (I miss you)
Turned back and whispered
So long beautiful soul till I feel your breath again!!!

Fate, it seems is not without a sense of irony!
