"Some people spend their entire lives reading but never get beyond reading the words on the page, they don't understand that the words are merely stepping stones placed across a fast-flowing river, and the reason they're there is so that we can reach the farther shore, it's the other side that matters." - Jose Saramago (1922-present)

The Cocoon??

Its been two days since I have joined my MBA prep classes.. When I was there, I was a bit early for the classes. To cut short my time, I took up one of the books and I really loved a story about a cocoon..

The Story:

A man found the Cocoon of a butterfly. One daya small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress.

Anatomy of my Death

Dated: August 11, 2008 | Author: Nikhil G.

The Curtain-Raiser

I am sitting on my chair.. A room slightly lit.. It was about 12 in the night..
I was pondering upon the things; I did for the whole of my life..
Yes, I am not alive..
I am not alive and I still want to die.. I want to kill myself..
YES, I am not afraid.. I am not afraid of cutting my wrists, or swallowing little poison…
I wanted to die… I wanted to kill myself…
I am not alive! Yet, this is my testimony, my suicidal note, my fair look on this insensitive world, moments before I killed myself…
Yes, this is the Anatomy of My Death.

The Problem:

While I wanted to die, while I wanted to kill myself… I had problems of my own…
I had this one question in my mind..
“Do I really want to die; do I really want to kill myself??
Or, the persons who care, for me, can take me out of this situation??”

The story of a Cocoon! He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings.

Jaane kya likha hai.. Main kahna chahu to bhi kah na saku.. Kyun khatm hoti nahi yeh kahani meri..

Love and Confessions! The same poem "Confession" re-written in english typography! One of my nice creations!

Confessions.. I am ashamed. Of what I've done to You. A poem by Me.

Guilt in ME… I am all guilty. I feel deprived. I feel depressed. But still, have a feeling of hope. Yet, I am guilty.
