Things I figured about myself. Hmm let's just say that.......... I love to start numbering from zero instead of one. I love to take photographs wherever I go. I can eat same food, day-in-day-out and not get bored. I can listen to same song non-stop in loop for days and still enjoy it. This freaks out all my buddies :). When I'm tensed, I like to watch movies or meditate. I hate to suffocate my feet inside shoes, so you will often see me roaming around bare-footed. If GOD asked me do you believe Angels? I would say 'Yes, my Mommy'. I believe that surviving in this world requires you to be extremely mean and exceedingly cunning, yet I refuse to adapt to that kind of life style. I would rather sit alone on my a$$ with a book than booze and party. I would rather play exhausting sport than sit on my a$$ and read a book hahaha. I like to dream. If God gave me power to remove any 3 vices from world, I would remove Politicians/Politics, Greed and Jealousy. I don't like to celebrate my birthdays. I think I'm too afraid of a celebration that is why you will rarely see me carousing at parties, etc. As to WHY... I don't know yet. One fine morning I was introspecting as why can't I be normal like everyone else and enjoy birthdays, parties, dancing, etc. After much deliberation a voice came from the deep sub-conscious.. 'You are scared of celebrations, Atul!' I gasped in utter disbelief. I sat there for few minutes, only to realize to my horror that it was every bit TRUE! OK, don't psycho-analyze me too much!
My Belief: If faith in ourselves had been more extensively taught and practiced, I am sure a very large portion of the evils and miseries that we have would have vanished... I spend more time digging and fixing what is not right within me, than I spend enjoying what is good in me. I believe it helps me make a better me as days pass by, but at the same time I miss out on enjoying the good things in me. While it helps me make me "the me" I am, I don't necessarily see this as a good thing. Neither am I actively looking at fixing it :-S
