Every once in a while you feel like a change will make you feel better. Even if it's just for a moment. Or is it only if it's for a moment. You never get tired of wishing and wanting. Or it's not that you don't get tired, but rather just don't stop.
But once that wish of change comes true, you start all over again. Irrespective of who you are, how affluent you are or even how happy you are. Our wishful thinking is like wanting a toy every other day of our childhood. But now, in my late 20's, what I want is not considered right by society. But I can't stop wanting it.
Now if I want, what I do, then I am considered as selfish and greedy. But I am still the same and the judgement that would befall upon me is all man made. So should I do what I like and face this judgmental world?
Sometimes I think I can getaway with what I want by deception. And that would be good as I get my adult toy and also go scot free. But I am still waiting.
I know someday I will be there in the moment when my wish sits at an arms distance. So I wait.
But once I get there, I will live like a child all over again and again and again.
Share me a wish right here right now.

Education: An ignorant bliss
Education is a norm for this generation. Study hard, excel and succeed. Additionally it provides you a numb and machine like lifestyle. Living and life are disparted wide apart.
"It has life!"
"It has life!"
You might say that when something non-living seems otherwise. Doesn't even hold a similar meaning anymore. Race to excellence, wealth, fame, status and man-made knowledge, leaves you rather lifeless.
Ever wonder why there were no subjects like "Family", "Friends" or say "How to select your life partner"(core course). Why didn't my school teach me how to make and keep girl friends? Friends being plural.
Am sure if there was an international standard for girl friend selection, then there would be plenty Phd's of the same. And your funded to do research, oh man!

Back from ga-ga land to reality. Our education system is just making robots. Machines are taking over the world and it's people like you and me.
Ancient Indian schools, gurukul, probably taught you enough science and alot of everthing else that's much required to merge living and life.
Atleast once a week or month, do something that you would do when you were a kid(fresh knowledge free brain). For me it would be playing with my nephews toys, with an empty head. No thought about work, current life, food or some reoccuring guilt.
Note: Kindly teach your kids the science of life.
