My Day

I woke up.
Imagine this….
You are happy; the kind of happy that have the right people around you to enjoy your time.
Then you are very happy; the kind of happy that you are just enjoying yourself and don’t care.

Then something happens. Something very small, like a thin thread. Like a drop of our own drink on your skin….. and you come out of it.

You are looking around and sometimes making comments in the current conversation. Then you go back to the place you were before. I can’t explain the place. Everyone is just there. No one bothers you. Nobody disturbs you. You are just there………….

“You're my heart, you're my soulI'll keep it shining everywhere I goYou're my heart, you're my soulI'll be holding you foreverStay with you together”

The radio station I am listening to is playing this. Such an old song. Reminds me of long time ago. I think around middle school.

Oh wow, I have missed my cousins. It was so much fun getting together at least once a year and just bug out parents….LOL
Then something happens. Something very small, like a thin thread. Like a sad train of thought that was coming towards you.

And, there you go……….

Where does it end? When did it get started? How did it get started.

You start thinking about it and then déjà vu………
You have been here before. Why are you back here?
You look closely. The theme, the situation is the same but different people. Actually there are shared people between the two but main characters are different.

Then you sit and write but it is late and your eyelids are slipping…….zZZZZzzzzzz

Scanner Darkly

Sacrifice for the greater good?
“Scanner Darkly” was the name of a movie we recently watched. We rented this movie while back and I tried to watch it few times but never passed the first 15 minutes of it.
I finally forced myself to sit and watch the whole thing.
At first the movie is about a drug called substance D and how authorities are trying to put a stop to the widespread use of it. However, later on it becomes about sacrificing for the greater good.

I have always questioned that concept. I can’t make my mind about the matter. Is it really ok to scarify for a greater good? Is it ethical? Can’t form an opinion on it, just can’t.

I don’t think I can ever do that. How can we think of it as an OK thing to do? Who do we think we are to sit and think about other living creatures like they are our toys? But again don’t we all play games to survive? I don’t believe in playing games but I sometimes catch myself playing it like others just to get what I want……..

Good movie, watch it when u get a chance..
