My 100th post...



















Picture Courtesy - Taare Zameen Par
Though i dont believe in whole numbers, 100 is quite a milestone :D!!

Now its almost 2 years i have been blogging. When i read old posts i can see so much i have changed. And its really amazing how the same person can see the same world so much differently. Its correct, we dont have to be somebody in particular to succeed and thats the beauty of it.
Life has changed, it has become steadily better. And the better it becomes the less i write. Maybe this is how goodness protects itself, maybe...
Where my life will proceed i dont know. And i think this uncertainty is what makes our life interesting cause we dont know what will happen in the future.
I am not boasting but I really think that the picture represents me, endevourme, the most beautiful person i have ever found. He is nothing in particular, he may never be somebody great, he also will be lost in time one day and nobody will know...but...then...nothing lasts forever...nothing. And everything gets forgotten. And thats why its worth trying, trying to be human, trying to be good, because even if we dont succeed, it doesnt matter cause someday everyone will be forgiven and everything will be set right. And i am proud of being what i am cause...i tried...
There are very few who can smile so innocently as the boy in the picture. A smile, not of survival but of celebration. A smile that makes all the struggle worth it and sets everything right.

You amaze me Ende! You're right. It's worth trying to be a human and die a human, than trying to be someone we aren't! Its even more amazing that more and more people are finding their way toward this enlightenment! I just found mine after reading your post! :) Thanks for a wonderful morning. You have a good one too.

Hi!

Congratulations ...
Better late than never, came here after a long time.
Today, am feeling very strange, cannot describe it in words [I know it is a shame for a writer to say that, but it is true.]
I have been visiting old friend's blogs today and strangely, as it is call of the day ...
I landed up on the old friend's blog through google!


How are you? Hope all is well.
