Who Am I?
Let me tell you....who I'm!
I'm an Indian geographically, for all of you who thinks human life is to serve the country.
Then I'm a Software Engineer by proffession though I claim to have a Computer Engineering degree. Most of my time I created buggy software or corrected other's same endeavors. Hardly I enjoyed the Computer's all other aspects other then creating business software.
After that I'm a Hindu by religion. Oops, that is such a general statement, my hindu bretherns only revoke at me. So to be specific I'm a Brahmin, Hindu Brahmin. So I distinguished myself from others said to be low caste Hindus & become conspicuos & revered by them as my nature is to seek 'Brhama' i.e. knowledge.
Then comes the ideologies I believe in or sometime speak in length about it. I'm Capitalist in economic sense, politically to a larger extent I support BJP though I'm not unaware of their evil deeds. I require logic & evidence when I seek truth but I've not hundred percent scientific outlook towards life. I'm spiritual at deep down in my heart & most of the time engage myself in totally unscientific works for there is no logic. For example few days back I tried to write few lines about 'What is Love?'. Most of the time I admire Human freedom as in thought, deed and chossing profession etc. & like America so much. But at the same time I remain confused & seek truth, scientifically, why Americans are crazy & behave as animals. I didn't found an answer yet!
I've grown up playing & admiring cricket as a sports. I too enjoy playing bad-minton & chess & caram too. I hate playing football & tennis, for it require too much energy. Spending such a amount of energy to enjoy a sports doesn't quite look scientific to me & there is no spiritual reason for it is either. I love Old Hindi Movie melodies. And not specifically a particualr singer, I like them all...Rafi, Kishore, Lata, Asha you name it. Most of my free time when I'm not watching movie or listening to music, I read. My interest here is Business, Politics & Economics, Phillosophy & non-fictions. I found myself lost when I read poems!
I drive a bike & that most of the time drive me into lot of activities. Like, I'm being a part of a NGO, 'iVolunteer' and drive myself to the meetings & associations to help 'the unfortunates'.
As my future doesn't seem dark as of yet so I aspire to drive some of the b'ful cars that man has ever made, Pontiacs, Caddilacs, Merc, BMW etc.
Did I miss anything in defineing me? Hummm....I don't think so.... at least nothing more is coming to my mind. But is that all? Am I this much? Isn't there any other parameter to measure me? I hope, it's not all.
Still there is more to me. I'm more beautiful as a person, as an individual. When these parameters end, the real 'I' in me starts. I'm more then the sum total of what these parameters could measure about me. I have in me something, that no instrument could give a form, shape or quantify. I transcend all the boundaries that has been created to define & limit myself.
I urge you not to know me by all these. Instead if you choose to know me by these, you are lossing a chance to the real me.
I'm like a flower. A flower has colour, form, place & all other quantifiable attributes much like an human being. But how one can measure the fragrance of a flower, the freshness & the innocence in it? How can you count the joy that you get by a mere a glance at it? Could you fathom the depth of the ecstacy you felt? So I'm more as a flower for you. And you all are at the same time like flowers to me too!
I love & respect you, the 'individuality' in you, the real 'you' in you.
