Being KEC

KEC is like a gorgeous nubile princess in the bosom of majestic Kumaon Hills. With lovely breeze blowing at its face and teasing its tresses, its breathtakingly awesome. Complete in itself. Its nights are heavenly and peaceful - taking you to yet unexplored, untouched contours of imagination.
Mankind’s biggest and ageless marvel engineering came to bless it, with the intention of giving it a Midas Touch. It had infinite dreams of carving out a manmade heaven and putting the princess in the robe of a Queen. It refurbished its elegance and saw the princess turn into a Queen.
People who came to see the Queen experienced the divinity of the its night and became mesmerized, deciding never to leave the place. But as night got over and dawn came, it ended quickly without lasting long and suddenly broke a grim, stark noon. With the advent of the noon were uncovered some of the dark truths, till now shrouded by the grandeur of the night. Also got revealed was the morguish jinx haunting the place and invisible during the night. The ugly faces, the ‘Jinx’ themselves - dark like the dead of the night, who ate away the beautiful noons leaving behind the half eaten corpse, were apparent during the day.
And now, the Queen already robbed off her diamond studded thorn, lies vulnerable - helplessly waiting to see her night gown ripped apart next, and night, her only respite, be snatched away too.
Sometimes a whiff of fresh air blows away a little sand away from the ‘desert like’ noon, but then suddenly the whiff itself becomes ‘alloyed’ with that sand and dies or turns out to be mirage giving the delusion of an oasis.
The story continues, people come mesmerized , people go away disillusioned, with empty faces, vowing never to come back and the jinx continues to haunt the place. The Queen who once saw a gigantic dream with engineering is now witnessing herself, being ripped off its grandeur, slowly, time and again, by the brutal assaults of the ‘CANCERS’ of the same specie whose ‘GODLY HEROES’ once blessed it with the Marvels of Engineering.. HUMANS.

So feeling good today right?
Hard work does’nt always go unnoticed…
Sometimes we just blow things out of proportion………
Look at Urself…..U r in a pretty sound position today…….
It happens……
And that is why it is said never loose hope and just keep doing things…..
Doors open up only for those who dare to challenge……..
And remember if U never fall down in life U never learn anything………
Remember,every failure of ours makes us learn new things and makes us stronger…..
So never curse them……….
Keep this thing in mind that failures come our way to test our strength……..
If there are no failures then there is nothing to achieve and the life becomes very boring……….
So always take them in the right spirit…..
And believe me if U really start enjoying the tough times U become unbeatable…………..
Heroes are never people who r extraordinary but they just do things in an extraordinary way…..
Everytime U r able to defeat a challenge in life U become a hero………
Never forget to appreciate urself for that and thank urself for that……..
Those are the moments we really deserve a pat in the back from no one but our own self……..
Do it………….
It may seem nothing but it boosts our confidence to double thre previous level…………..
Sometimes things should just be done without thinking about them……
Thinking beyond a extent becomes dangerous for our own self……….
So whenever U fail to understand why something ids happening just stop thinking about it…….
And wait for few days…..
U come up with a solution………….
It is just one life that we get so always enjoy it to the fullest…
It is easy to buckle up under pressure everybody does tha,t what is difficult is facing it on the face and taking as a challenge ,without letting it overcome us……….
The most difficult thing in life is staying happy always………
Today whatever is ur state of mind try to maintain it even in the toughest of times and then u will find nothing is impossible to U……….

JUST IN!

Of late it comes to me only too often;what sort of blind race are we running in?Leading to nowhere?No light at the end of the tunnel………
The world around as if shackled in the hands of destiny? Destiny? Can it be called destiny?or a farce ! –the whole situation –a FARCE.We—struggling to achieve…..?
What?Something which even we don’t know?But how is it this possible that it is our future ,our destiny ,our life and we don’t know about it?Shall I call This irony or buck passing?Well,it is the question that has to be answered……..But when?After this delusion swamps us or we lying in our death beds ,with whole of the life flashing in our mind realize that one precious human life to live and to feel proud of was wasted!
That at the end of our life we havwe came a full circle…….?
Can’t we realize it is the time to “draw a line!”..
To say “I do !!” To wake up!! To realize…….that we EXIST!!!
To start living the life we want,which is unforced,of which we don’t have to be guilty about , skeptical about ,following the trite,hackyned,stereotyped success paths which we may not want but still force ourselves because of the delusion that having money and professedly successful is what is the goal of life and we sacrificeourselves saying “we want to do it but THAT’S THE WAY THE COOKIE CRUMBLES!
Perhaps not! What a sin this is ,sacrificing oneself,one’s feelings,one’s will for something we say is a BIGGER CAUSE……..! Not realizing that it is strangling our creativity,killing ourself and morphing us into unthinkable,thoughtless herd of dustbin,so called ‘Corporate Citizens’.Getting ourselves entry into a world where people don’t think,who survive but don’t live…….
Shall I say this is the Achilles Heel?but why?till when?for whom?what is the use of this existence?where we have to beg?to confess?to feel sorry for ourselves?it is nothing but disgracing the nature’s greatest creation ---MAN.

Just A Minute!

What is that one thing that you never want to stop doing or you always want to do………?
Before proceeding further on this think for a while………….
For those who could not recall anything ; read it because this will tell you why it is important to find one and for those who could , it will be a journey into the virtual world of thoughts,giving you a taste on introspection!
I have always been a kind of person who loves respecting one’s Self. I recently heard a quote saying “When I am happy I do Maths,when I am sad I do Maths!” Sounds funny …….isn’t it? But it reflects the very thing I want to say-----Loving something passionately.
Everybody has that one thing which one can’nt stop doing. Both in the best and the worst of times. It may be something very trivial like stuffing oneself with food or something very intellectual like writing like, I write whenever I am on extreme highs or lows. Similarly there are many people, many faiths ,but sharing the same views as mine!
It really does’nt matter what u do ,but what matters is that u do .And those who don’t ,it is necessary to discover that one thing and to keep pursuing it, because it acts as a safety valve….
Just as a safety valve releases extra pressure out of the pressure cooker, the same way it is that one thing that keeps you resilient and shock proof!!
Today the competitive pressure has increased to such levels that people find it difficult to focus on themselves and hence tend to buckle up on the first sign of pressure --inspite of being good .All this is because they don’t utilize their safety valve to the fullest or let’s say don’t utilize it at all !
Though people know life provides no automatic safety net, still they can’t stop their past laurels from affecting their present .As a result --complacency starts creeping in.And they find it difficult to detach themselves from a past “success state” to a new one (which might not be pleasant………most of the times).
All this eventually leads to the shift of focus from self to the surroundings. The worst one could want! It makes you vicarious! It makes you fill up your success void with somebody elses !!! Check it out!
It’s a warning signal !! It can temporarily kill your potential or may shatter you to pieces ,time and again!!
Watch out ,if anything like that is happening it’s your time to wake up and do something about it ,rather than sitting passively and watching yourself crumble…..
Pull yourself together .Your Safety Valve--Use it!! If it is still dormant ,find it!! It acts as a psychological boost none other can give you.
It can bring focus back to urself .And remember if u still ignore these signals and don’t do anything about it now it becomes very difficult afterwards to put the pieces of ur shattered identity back !!.
Ultimately what matters is, living happily while being productive. Both are complementary. If one is missing other can’t be achieved .

ACTIONS

World is an open arena where individual skills are the only weapon we possess. It is a long quest--quest for the best! Whatever actions we take today ,affect our tomorrow.
(That does’nt however, mean we should balk at taking actions...)
Actions should come from our side repeatedly!! Never ever should one be conscious of one’s actions .
One should let them happen ,because they are one’s own!! …...And that very fact makes them special !
Categorically speaking ,actions are of two kinds-- Self generated and Externally Motivated.
Most of the time ,actions we take are influenced by the second kind.
It is so because the uncertainity which shrouds self generated actions compels us, most of the time, to switch over to the second kind--by default, and most of the time ,they turn out to be favourable also….!
But still I would give more marks to those preferring the first kind.
The reason being ---
The will and bravado that calls for to take self generated actions!!
Giving a deeper thought makes one realize what degree of mettle and sense of emotional and mental integration is required to take them !
Only few possess the valour to initiate such actions…!!
Talking about the consequences here, let me emphasize they are secandory since
nobody is born omniscient!!
Self generated actions possess the beauty of unpredictability which influenced actions don’t…........!!
And without which life looses its savour and so do actions……………
No matter how safe influenced actions may be, the very fact that they are influenced ,snatches away the originality from them and makes them unattractive and somber………

So be a self –generator always……..!!
Remember: The toughest thing in the world is staying original……….
