The truth about life....!

I heard this over some late night radio show a long long time ago burning the midnight oil for the most dreaded part of a students life,Class 12th Board Exams! The background is besides the point but nevertheless here is the abridged version of what i remember!!!

Long long ago when God created the first human beings on Earth, the Master Craftsmen was elated with his work.The creation was 'Immaculate' on all counts.The first beings on Earth were perfect,they could think,had a Conscience and could provide for themselves and the ones that would follow and above all live in harmony with Nature. None of the creations could do all this and this brought immence satisfaction for the Great Sculptor who finally decided to recline to quiescence after the ordeal that was The Creation Of Life on Earth had come to an end.

The superior being had been created.

Thus the world was born, and in all its innocense of a toddler, began to flourish. One man and woman to hundreds and thousands of men and women. So perfect was the creation that even if sin and malice did touch the immortal beings and overcame them, God would forgive the sins and remove the burden on their consience from His 'perfect' creations. This went on for Centuries until the burden God had collected over this time had became so humongous that He could no longer handle it for millions and millions of people.

So this is what He did.

He called all his 'immaculate' creations and as planned earlier in His deliberations with His ministry He distributed the 'burden' amongst all beings, each one to carry his/her burden according to his/her sins and misgivings around his/her back till the final abode to the heavens was made!

Thus from time immemorial all of us can see what sins and burden our fellow beings are carrying and is easy to point out, but in the process we fail to realise what we ourselves
are carrying. Until it becomes so heavy and so unbearable and it becomes impossible to move ahead in life.

So dear reader all it takes is an apology, a confession or an expression of your feelings to get rid of the burden! And before you point a finger at someone just because you can see his/her burden on his/her back, beware.....

you are carrying one too! Dont wait for someone to point it out to you.

That my friend is the truth about life....!

An era begins.....

An era begins today.... I would like to call it so,as this is my first blog!!! :)
A lot of thoughts are going through my head as to what should i write about. I guess i should first introduce myself to those who dont know me and for those who know me, just read it for you could have missed something!

My name is Saatvik and i am a Computer Science Engineer(not a techy by any measure but what the hell, i am an engineer). Its actually a tough call putting down one's life in a words but nevertheless its the attempt that counts. Well lets begin at the beginning!

My Childhood. Though i am in the middle ages of my childhood now, its always a pleasure to recall all the beautiful memories of being nonchalant about the world around you. I was brought up in a small house in south delhi. Spent most of time at my maternal grandparents house when my dad and mom were away at work! I loved to draw (still do) and paint. Have spoiled quite a lot of walls my folks tell me. Though introvert and a quiet child i loved to observe people. Whether it be the carpenter or the gardner i would sit for hours just watching how they went about their work.I guess i am still very curious for just about everything around me!

At school i was an intelligent student but didnt dwell into co-curriculor activites till i finished secondary school after which i became a prefect. Till date i do not know how i won the elections but i guess my 'good' impression with the teachers paid off well! In middle school i was terribly shy to talk to girls. If i remember very clearly i hadnt spoken to any girl till i became a prefect except when the subject was geography or history!

Though i am not as introvert as school days but i would consider myself to be an Ambivert,and i strongly believe the Britishers must have coined this word for me!

Well that sums up my childhood !

If u ve read through this incomprehensible data on a human being out of the 1.2 billion surviving on this piece of land called India try this yourself!

Picture yourself with you as a child (may be how you were when you were 6 or 7 or 10 years old!!!). How different are you from this child? Do you laugh as much ? Cry as much he/she did?
good or bad? better or worse? Thats your call! but i m sure it will bring a smile to your face!
