Reality bites.....HARD!

Watching the news this morning after very long, normally I prefer reading the news. Less than 30 mins and I hear: -UP Cabinet member mocks deaths from cold in Muzaffarnagar, says no one can die of cold! -20 year old gangraped in Pondicherry TWICE -blast in Jalpaiguri How much depression can you handle within 30 mins! You're being mocked for being a woman, being poor and helpless...all at the same time! So I switch to a music channel and my masaledar bollywood numbers lighten me up...maybe Bollywood is the way it is for a reason - theraptic in its own way! This is how we deal with being helpless about our situations - switch off and forget abt it...dont know for how long though!

Falling short of life

Lots of things in my mind right now...feels like life is speeding away and eroding me in this speed. I dont think I am able to savour the flavours of happiness as much as I'd like but grief takes me to the rock bottom of my sensibility. Im wondering why is that? Im trying hard to take in every bit of a day's experiences but everything seems too much, too overwhelming! I feel a huge burden on me...I feel I need two of me to carry it all...my being is so insuffiecient for it. There are things that I need from life but I somehow dont find the means to do it...its like I have a path to go and life is pulling me towards a different path and its happening ALL THE TIME!Its just so entangled...everything aroud me...will I be able to untangle this mesh?
