Discombobulated & Bored

Yesterday I was stuck in the traffic on the way back home for a long time. I think it took me around 2.30 hours instead of 1:30 hours to get home. So as I was sitting in the car I started to look for things to amuse myself. First I start thinking about what I was going to write for my blog about religion.

“I can’t concentrates these days, have too much in my mind but that is nothing new!
I watched “The Da Vinci Code” few days ago, and I have been thinking about religion since. I got to say before hand that I am not that religious.
What do you think of religion? There is one thing to believe in God and another to follow everything that your religion books/authorities tell you. I have always thought about religion. About what it means in general and what it means to me!
I believe religion is a tool. It is a tool to control people. There are so many horrible and sometimes nice things are done under the name of the religion. It is a tool to get people to believe in you and follow you. It is also a tool which brings people together and connects them. Maybe, it gives you a feeling of belonging to something beyond your secular world.”

Then I got tired of it and stopped. Then I saw a guy, who was driving in the lane beside me, readying a book. I thought such a good idea. So I took my finance readying out and started to read. This readying was actually interesting. It is a case on Google.

Then I start thinking of the conversation I had with a friend on Saturday night at my place. We talked about people and their hidden agendas! This person believes that if your income is more than certain amount then you have to pay a lot more tax than others and basically have to share your wealth with everyone. This person also talked about living in a socialist country and the benefits of it.

“If you are greedy enough to want to become that powerful then you can not, possibly can not, have possibly have good intentions, you can not have humanity in minds.
Any body who is in a powerful positions can not have humanity in mind, doesn’t have the welfare of humanity in mind, they only have money, power, greed in mind they only want to rule as they want, they only have their own ideology in mind. Someone who becomes the head of the state is because he/she has something in mind and they want to implement their own ideology to the highest level possible”

I got tired of that too. Then I start looking at the cars. Some of them are so pretty that you just want to look at them for hours. Some are new and some are very old and wrinkled. Just like humans. I’m not sure why but majority of the cars that I took my undivided attentions were black; Even though black is not my favourite colour in cars, but again what is my favourite colour for cars? I am not sure, depends on a car I guess.

I got tired of that too. Then I start looking at the “stickers”! and trying to find out when the driver is born and then try to remember their horoscope from it. Then I start judging the drivers according to their horoscope signs and had so much fun with that. The ones I liked I let them get in front of me if they were signaling and the ones I did not like or I was not compatible with were stuck in their own lane and had to look for another person’s mercy….LOL. I got to say though it is hard to read the little sticker at the back of the cars.
I found this car whose sticker was from 2005!! God help him….. that is a big fine…
I was almost home by then. So stopped thinking for few seconds and turn into my parking.
