Fear

The most dangerous things of all.Everything you pursue will be gone in a moment,if this four-letter wave sweeps across you at that precise time. It's happened with me so many times that now I fear the 'fear'.Renders my brain useless and reminds me of my inability to control my own mind. Some may call it 'fate',but (like Neo in Matrix) I don't like the idea of someone/something else controlling my life.
That's when people look upto their faith. It is so beautifully intertwined.

"I don't like the idea of someone/something else controlling my life."

Not that I subscribe to "no-free-will", but I think it is frequently a good habit to reject an idea based on its shortcomings rather than one's discomfort at the prospect of the idea being true!

Did you write this post (rather) hastily OR you 'chose' to touch upon varied subjects,moving deftly from fear to fate to faith?I guess either of the two must be true, considering its ambiguity. :)

Rachit--
Don't you think this 'bringing out the best' was the only thing we desired for in the past one year?But I guess it wasn't born out of fear,but the efforts to tame it(My conjecture) :P

Mountain Quotes

From the Lonewolf's diary

Pilani is a buzzing place, which at times looks alien to me. Here I am, removed from my world, in a place that weighs me down in its intricacy, amongst people whose doings are as incomprehensible to me as mechanics. But the sad truth is that I can’t run away from both of them. The whole, busy, unheeding life of a metropolis campus casts me into a horrible gloom of isolation. I was never like the regular BITsian, and frankly I’d never want to be like one. There is one part of me which doesn’t comply by the temperament of things around me. It’s that all-consuming thought with a feeble voice. And however hard I try, it doesn’t get subdued. Call it a conflict between my reality and my conscience. I can’t let either of them win over the other. And the saga continues. I am what I am, nothing else matters. *** Everyone's so full of shit ...

The Quote that touched. Again.

Take chances, take a lot of them. Because no matter where you end up, and with whom, it always ends up the way it should be. Your mistakes make you who you are. You learn and grow with each choice you make. Everything is worth it. Say how you feel, always. Be you, and be okay with it.
