Watch it Out

System Malfunction

Last night I trusted my ever faithful bio-clock to wake me up at 7 in the morning, but it just betrayed me. I woke up to a sound that actually hit me quite hard. It was a sound triggered by my biological clock that made me get up with a jerk. It was sudden and was accompanied by a small quantum of shock. Glancing at my watch, I saw the hour arm move towards the number 5. I realised that I was too early to be 'up'. I felt a slight breeze go past my face, my eyes were half closed, the eyelids did their job to perfection. The brain had force directed them to shut, but it also simultaneously gave errands to my lean bony legs and arms. The window was open and it had to be shut, it was getting colder and I cuddled myself back to sleep. My system was not functioning the way I wanted it to perform. It 's hard to believe that even after finishing 26 orbits, my system failed to obey my orders.

Strategies People Adopt

Guess the strategy adopted didn't fit the bill. I needed to re-think and change my ideologies. It's become tough for people and myself to accept 'me'. I have lately observed a high degree of 'exploration' with the outside world. There is a tendency to do the undone. The change is painful and has given raise to endless monologues. A big tussle to get the 'red apple' is still 'on'. The opponents have deftly plotted down their moves. It's like cracking a maze game, the most detestable thing to play, if you are confused as to what to do in life. You set focus on certain issues and try fulfilling the same. After they are accomplished the thirst to maintain your stature and stay 'ever focussed' dies out. The enthusiasm is lost and the issues no longer exist, even though they are out there like a white dot on a black paper. You start getting attracted to the black areas of life, constantly questioning and probing the goodness of a whole lot of other larger facets.
Its fun exploring in the dark 'cause you do not know what you might step into. It's very much like research and development. One fine day you might just be known as a 'Great Inventor / Discoverer'.

I guess it's all about crossing the chasm, leaving the society to rot about.
