Chase of Life!


Life, as I look at it, is an interminable chase...innumerable individuals and countless chases, all of us are chasing willingly or unwillingly. We see different stages of our life, so as the chases...to begin with, studies, exams, result, pocket money, girls...sometimes peace and most of the time "Life".

Our quest for life is the utmost chase that haunts us like our worst nightmares. Contrary to what I said just now is, when we look at past we find those chases were silly and we could have handled them better and with ease, but is that correct? No my dear friend, every single chase is heart-stirring as hell.

Remember boards...? getting in the room, looking for who's sitting near by, breathin the name of our savior, looking at the maths paper and realizing that most of the questions were out of syllabus. Remember those ants in pants...lol...now you can laugh at it, but that moment how I survived a cardiac arrest I only know. I held it till I broke the loo later at home.

So undoubtedly I remember my quest [quoting my... will be wrong ] rather most of our contemporary young studs and their quest for becoming the "Dude" in the circle...Hah !! what remarkable sacrifices made, getting up at 4:30am, peepers cryin' for mercy, getting ready to hit the gym before those big bullies could come for "use up all the weights" workout sessions and finally spending 2hrs of reckless pumpin',... oh sorry forget to mention, last fefteen minutes dedicated to biceps [so that the sleeves can rest upon them for at least an hour]and no kidding we took it so damn serious .

This one went for long, pretty steady one...while we [we as in most of us] were loafing around the life's most cushioned platform.....suddenly from nowhere crashing comes another big fat chase " Career"....holy shit!!!

Suddenly every rosy picture fell on face and humongous responsibility came crashing and , better believe me, it hit really bad.....Since then another quest [career chase started].....

The list will possibly never end, the point of discussion was exactly this....our life is an overextending saga of "Chase" and its repercussions in daily life....We now need to take a halt, probably sipping a glass of JD on rocks, lighting our patent tobacco candy or rolling a chimney...think of what we are and what we want....certainly we can chalk out a priority list [unlike those study schedules we used to make after a "bash- their nuts out" session by mom n dad] and reroute our chases in a much wise fashion where each of them gets interlaced, givin us a lil time to" live" life ...not to just end up chasing a perfect life.....

I am seriously taking a call on that, how about you pals??
Just take out some selfish hours ....Just for you, take care!!

  1. Heylo fellas!!

    Adding some more weight to the cart...Early this sunday morning I encountered a new chase...yeah a fresh one and this one is typical...

    "Chase of self-realization" as I termed it....ppl around us, most of the time talk how we are, what we do and how we do...the ain't no judges with utmost enlightenment, but they somehow force our subconscious mind to think. Think what we actually are, good, bad or the worst.

    hmmmnnn u got it right my whole week will go thinkin about this...lets see!!

    suggestions are welcome, do scribble if ya wish...take care till then...

  3. Thanks but this piece comes out of memories from the past, what we've done, how we've done and all that.

  4. Our Chase starts with our desires and is never ending just like our desires. We achieve one and there it is.. another desire right at its tail.
