Now.

"From now on , I'll connect the dots my own way!" ~ Calvin

Twenty and three years is a very confusing stage... believe you me! It's where you try and fill in most of the variables to give your equation a definitive value. So many of life's defining events to come. Those that'll decide what shape it takes.

I start with my first job very soon. Excited to say the least... dont know how long the excitement will last though! There's one variable down!

You've moved on with the flow till now. Taken some decisions on your own, let some be governed by others. Some have just come. Happenstance.

Now is different. Now is when you decide.

Now what you do, is what you get to pat (!!?) yourself on your back for the rest of ur life!!! Now is also when you want to let your self imposed cares go with the wind. Now is also when you want to take in everything and Enjoy every moment. Now is the defining moment.

Now is a connundrum , also an opportunity.

It can be overwhelming too.

Now is when you go and and connect the dots your own way!

Aptly summed up by the song I am listening to right now ....

"Tu Dhoop hai... chham se bikhar... tu hai nadi , oh bekhabar.... beh chal kahin, ud chal kahin.... dil khush jahan... teri toh manzil hai wahin!"

Thank God for Anaesthesia!

To all those who contributed in inventing Local Anaesthesia.... I owe you one!

Well well well... in case you are wondering why a post on this of all things! One painful trip down to the dentist and you ll also be thanking the heavens! No matter how brave you are... u think u could handle anything in the world... but the dentist with his face hidden behind a mask and eyes peering out of thick glasses, while u r trapped in that chair ,is a different story all together! You turn into jelly the moment he comes at you with his arsenal of tiny shiny pointed metal weapons that he pokes and prods your mouth with!

and I turn into Ally McBeal imagining all sorts of things while putting up a brave face and repeating "IhatedentistsIhatedentistsIhatedentists" in my mind :D

and then came the life saver.... "would u prefer if I gave u Anaesthesia?' Yes! Yes! Oh please... I wonder if he could see the tears of thanks in my eyes :P

One prick and no feeling later.... I could stare him and any of his shiny pointed weaponary right in the face. :D

Here's to local anaesthesia!

On a different note altogether.... Life on the otherhand shouldnt have anything remotely like anaesthesia. Every painful moment is an experience too... Numbing it out wouldnt be a wise choice here :)

Cheers!
