A great man once said "Life is full of unfulfilled
wishes". I'm not sure if a great man said it but someone
must have said it and that's enough for me.
Well
,okay so my life is full of unfulfilled wishes too. Now,
the question is," What wishes?". The answer to that question
is "I don't really know " , the main reason being that I
am just too lazy to go into the philosophy of the thing and I don't
really like to tax my brain too much. I try to think myself as older
though. I suppose that something I once read applies to me now and
will apply to me later."All
our young life, we want to act older and we come to that stage, we
are no longer young".
Well, leaving such cheerful thoughts behind let me try to list out
a few of my wishes. (Note: The wishes in this article are non-material
in nature).
One of my wishes
is to have the sense to come to the point without beating about the
bush . I usually beat about the bush so much that if there really
was a bush I would have destroyed all organic material present around
the bush altogether. When I approach a topic, instead of coming straight
to the topic, I follow a devious route, trekking through different
topics, skipping over the main topic, circling it and then finally
landing on the topic. I just can't seem to come to the point. This
article is a product of ruthless editing of the rough copy that was
approximately double the size of the article before you. I just can't
seem to come to the point. I just can't seem to come to the point.
I just keep repeating myself all the time. I just keep repeating
.
Well, I suppose you can see what I mean with the word repeating
now.
Another thing that I have noticed about myself is that I think of
too many things at once and a lot of these thoughts come into my head
at the most inconvenient time. For example, I get all sort of imaginative
ideas only when I try to do something else with concentration. If
I try to study for my exams, I get ideas for my articles and when
I sit down with the intent to write an article, my mind goes as blank
as my face in Chemistry class. I assure you that it's quite a problem.
I wish that I didn't have this problem.
My dear readers, you have no idea how much I had to work to write
this article. After a lot of painful thought(and a lot of not too
polite reminders from my editor friend) I have finally written this
article. But after writing this article, I've realized something.
Introspection is not a bad thing. It helps to clear the mind. It helps
to... oh damn! I'm drifting away from the topic again. I suppose that
it is going to be difficult to be able to fulfill my wishes. Unless
I act on them I suppose that all this will always come into the category
of wishful thinking. Well then, my dear readers who have had the courage
to tolerate this article, I assure you that there will be a new list
of wishes in the next article. Till then
, happy wishful thinking
and chow!(For those who do not know, chow! means goodbye. It was derived
from the ancient word
oops! I really should end this article
now or I may end up writing another article in these brackets) Till
next time then, BYE!!.
