From a quote

It is said that power corrupts, but actually it's more true that power attracts the corruptible. The sane are usually attracted by other things than power.
- David Brin (1950 - )
got this from quotationspage.com

I saw this quote today.. needless to say i liked it.. Well for me there are two sides to this quote..

Side 1:
Its true.. Power is attractive to people who are corruptible.. Think of this.. why would someone WANT power? Its definitely not becoz they want it as a momento.. They want to do something about it.. What is the reason that humans do something? mostly it is selfishness.. Even the most 'selfless' have done something for their own good.. It may not be even be that big so as to overshadow their selfless deals but definitely all human beings are selfish.. Its easy to see that the degree of selfishness varies.. Some mayb selfish to the extent that they would do anything to get their ends fullfilled some maybe selfish to very small degrees that no one even notices it.. So if the case is former then 'monetary benefits' can be one major factor for wanting power.. that makes them corrupt..

Side 2:
Who gains power automatically?? A 'sane' person or a corruptible one?? Who is entrusted with power initially?? I say its the 'sane' people! Its like leadership.."people who are born leaders are entrusted with duties without them asking for it"quoting one of my friends.. They would have been too used to having power that they do not want to work for more.. So they distribute it thinking that someone else should also get recognition.. Thats when oppurtunity strikes for the 'i-want-power' people.. And well one good thing about these people.. they are good at knowing what door is going to open for them.. These people are tactful to do exactly what is seemingly righteous so as to get to their goal.. So if a sane person was as tactful enough and knew what was going on in his surrouding i think that can make the society less corrupt.. So my advice to all people who are 'sane' is that please do what you can to stop corruption.. India needs to get better.. Be street smart not just selfless[:)]

Study leave!

so its study leave again!!
Mom's home everyday now.. so cant even tell her that i 'had' been studying like i used to in school days and til s4 in colg too.. Well now did i lie to my mom then??? i dont think so.. coz i did study for 5 mins in a day then too.. Thank goodness she never asked me for how much time then.. i wud really have been screwed then.. Nowadays its really hard to prove to my mom that i have been studying..
Only thing she would allow other than study is to sleep.. ohk for all you ppl out ther who are gona say i m lucky think again.. My dad is the exact opposite.. He would never let me sleep.. So now its like keeping my book open and day dreaming.. Again trouble mom knows exactly wat i m doing.. even if i m staring at the book[:P]

Anyone having any suggestions is welcome to comment[:D]

Mom's the best friend that i have ever known.. So here's something i dedicate to her:

When i get up i thank god
that i have someone to turn to,
that i have someone i can share everything with...

You are someone who understands me like no other
You have been with me through thick and thin
You have been there to scold me,to tease me, and to share my joys,
To tell me what i m doing is wrong(but ya i know i retort back like a normal teenager then)

Sorry ma, if i ever hurt you..
You are the best thing that could happen to me..:)

Note:this post maybe out of context and may seem like its not a poem or a prose but thats what i wanted it to be..

Being busy 2

Ohk.. i had written a post before.. about being busy..

Well i have always wanted free time somehow i never got it.. Is it gud or bad.. tat was always my qn.. Today taught me that i cant define if its gud or bad.. but i do know tat its not me..

Most of my friends would agree on this when i say i am usually very busy.. some may term me not having time for them as "jada" to put it in malayalam terms.. But if they are close to me they know that i always find time for ppl who are close to me.. I like being occupied.. and i m sorry if anyone is hurt by it..

Today well in the morning when i went to college i knew this wasnt a typical day in the life of sindhya kartha.. coz well i always have a plan for a day and its always jam packed.. today my only agenda in college was to write a rough record.. Half way through i learned that there was no need to keep the record.. Ya well i m a person whose feelings are reflected on my face and my closest friends could definitely see through it..there were some ppl who saw that i wasnt myself.. they thought i was sad..(vin,rosh,pri,ans,anv,hari,kish i m really glad to have you as my friends, you ppl are the best!!:)) Well ya even i knew i was a bit jumpy but i dint know the reason.. And when they asked why i said nothing.. but it was evident something was bothering me..

Then well one of my friends asked me to do the record work for her.. And to my own surprise i was happy to do it.. She still thinks i did it for her.. But lil did she realize that it was for me that i did it:)

Also learnt something else.. Little things and non-stop chatting can make me happy.. Thank god for that:)

Well whats life all about?? Is it about how much you have studied? How much you have gained? How much you mean to others? I dunno... But i know one thing its not about the big things but about the lil things that make up life.. Somehow i know i m blessed with the best of the little things[:)]

At last i have been tagged:D

Aaah well at last.. i have been tagged for the first time.. by freebird..

1.Pick out a scar you have, and explain how you got it:

Well the only scar that i can think of is the one near my eyebrow.. (not that visible now..) that was the result of my stubbornness... i still haven't learnt my lesson... :D dad was working in Calcutta(Kolkata now) n it was just mom n 7 year old me.. i had a fetish for cycle riding one day.. i had a biiiiiiiig (or at least it seemed so then) second hand cycle then.. anyone who knows me now also knows my love for driving whether its car or scooter...

it was kinda the same then also but the only difference was then i couldn't handle a bike/scooter... n well v didn't have a car then..thank god:D(or i would have rammed that into the first pole i could find then:D) by the way i was soooooo big tat my legs wouldn't reach the ground if i sat on the cycle:D.. so for me to stop someone would have to hold the cycle from behind.. it was usually my dad who did tat.. but since my mom n i were only there i forced my mom to come with me as my official "cycle-stopper"... she told me a loot of times that she wont be able to run that fast but would i listen?:D.. 
got the cycle to the road at last..:) starting was smooth.. i pedalled on.. gained speed.. then more speed... then more speed... i was on flying:D..next thing  i know i was at edge of a canal..(ekm area has toooooooo many canals):D.. i guess what happened is obvious..mom couldn't run at the speed i was riding n she lost her grip.. i couldn't stop wen i wanted to.. n i lost control...well coming back scar was due to falling at the edge of the cemented canal.. the cement was 
rough so

it cut my skin... no further injuries though... n for all those who thought tat was the end of my cycle 

riding days... u r sadly mistaken...:D

2.What does your phone look like?
phone...hmm... my mob is nokia.. 1112.. basic set... navy blue border.. silver around the screen.. with a NOKIA written across it.. no cover.. ya well tats abt it..
my precious sidekick:D
i m addicted to it.. had it not been for hutch taking away all good offers it'l still be disturbing people:D

3.What is on the walls of your bedroom?

Lots n lots of posters... dad always gets me such posters.. so also a lot of other people.. there is one abc's of happiness above my so-called "study table"(which is seldom used as even a table let alone study on it).. near my bed there are 3 posters..1.ten commandments of something(success)i think... 2. My mom(its a small kid's poem) 3. positive thinking.. on the opposite wall there is a comparatively bigger poster which has a real beautiful landscape and a quote "reach for the joy tat rises with every morning sun":)

4.What is your current desktop picture?
This is gonna seem childish... but its an anime.. sakura the cardcaptor with kerobaros(kero) the protector of the cards...:) i loved this anime series once upon a time.. well put it up as my desktop wen i my orkut account also had the same display image.. dint change it even when that changed..
                                                                    
5. Do you believe in gay marriage?
If a person chooses that he is in love with another guy.. then none should prevent them from being 
together legally... marraige is a social institution that humans have brought abt.. and it shouldn't be restricted to people who are supposedly "straight".. i don't find any reason why gays  shouldn't be "married"..

6.What do you want more than anything right now?
Well right now... personally i think i have messed up my life more than it needs to be...:D and i want to get back on track.. get back to my abnormally normal self.. also wish i didn't have college tomo... i m sleepy its as simple as tat..:D

7. What time were you born?
I think it was sometime around 10:25am.. or thats what i heard my mom say.. never bothered to remember the exact timing:D

8.Are your parents still together?
Define "together".. :D well i was just kidding... ya they are together.. thank goodness to that...

9.Last person who made you cry?
hehe... well good qn.. would say myself:D don't laugh... i m serious.. feeling bad about how i made a lot of stupid decisions and conclusions.. ended up messing up my life and made ppl close to me sad...at times i think my decisions were stupid but then i dont feel that  way always.. 'coz wen i took them i was positive they were right..

10. What is your favourite perfume / cologne?
ahem... i know what a perfume is..i use it too... but i don't know any particular special type of perfume :D

11.What kinds of hair/eye color do you like in the opposite sex?
hair colour:Whatever suits that guy.. who bothers about what hair colour as long as the guy looks good in total :P
eye colour:blue eyes look sooooo cute:D but this again as b4 i would say depending on the guy...

12.What are you listening to?
Right now... "Breakaway" by Kelly Clarkson.. i love this song... i have currently put my itunes in shuffle.. and now its linkin park "somewhere i belong"... contrast maybe.. but i like both pop n rock and everything in between...:D


13.Do you get scared of the dark?
Well i don't remember the last time it was pitch black.. but on other times wen it was dark my eyes got adjusted to the light(or the lack of it i should say).. and so i haven't been scared of darkness... also i guess being an only child when parents are out of town i have to get used to being alone in darkness...:)

14.Do you like painkillers?
Well i have taken dart when i have real bad headaches that i cannot sleep and also one pain killer for the time wen 4 of my teeth were extracted.. but other than that..till now(that i can remember) even if i m asked to take ibuprofen or stuff more powerful than that for anything i haven't... 

15.Are you too shy to ask someone out?
No.. if i know for certain i LOVE a guy(and can't live without him) i'l tell him directly... Fortunately god has spared me the embarrassment of ever having to get turned down til now...:)

16.If you could eat anything right now, what would it be?
Right now.. not hungry.. i have my tea in front of me n i m still reconsidering whether i should drink it or tell my mom i don't want it... unless its time or any of the three courses of food i don't want to right now.. and nooooooooo its not 'coz i m dieting.. i cannot diet.. need food wen i am hungry:D

17.Who was the last person that made you mad?
Mad as in???
well if its angry.. then its one of my best friends.. 'coz of reasons known to that person..well i was mad then.. but it seems i shouldn't have reacted that way.. i m sorry..
mad as in nuts.. well same person again.. for a reason related to that reason... i don't wish to disclose so don't bother asking.. :)

18.Who was the last person who made you smile?
last person well... technically last person i chatted with who made me smile was dhirajji... but i guess after that this question made me smile too...so partial credit to freebird :)

ohkkkkkkkkkk now that that is done... time for me to do the honours of tagging the ppl below :D
abhay, govind, muni, and gayatri..

Jus life!

I m a person who puts my head before my heart.. if u had read my previous post u would understand what i meant..
At times i feel that it would have been better if my heart had taken control of my thoughts and prevented me from doing the "right" thing... But sometimes wish my heart would never raise its voice when it wasn't needed...Sounds a little too weird but i m just putting my thoughts to words... When u do certain things you don't think of the implications coz you just assume its gonna be OK.. Even when there is a gut instinct which tells u don't do it.. Its when you look back later on and ponder on it that u realize you always knew that this was going to happen..
Wish somethings never happened and wish i could hide my emotions from people i love..Wish someone could tell me what i did was right other than the person concerned.. its when my heart and head work together that i have a conflict and end up hurting people.. yes i have hurt a lot of people at various times..But i have hurt myself more when i cant suppress my heart when simultaneously my head is doing the thinking...Well in conclusion i still would go with my head coz i don't want others to get hurt coz of me... At least to the maximum extent that i can i don't want to hurt another person.. But i still think i m lucky coz ultimately its what the person i hurt feels and i m glad things haven't changed for the worse...

My sun sign...the archer

My blog has been kinda dry since 2k7 started.. once again lack of events isnt the factor its lack of time to blog... very bad blogger i know... so this post is one thing that kinda made me think, i got the following from astrolife.com

Sagittarius :
Upfront, direct action or speech is your response to life which you always want to be a constant adventure. You dash into high speed gear regardless of the consequences assuming your luck will hold out which it usually does. The third of the fire signs, you are cheerful, restless, optimistic, a deep thinker, energetic, confident, adaptable but not always practical or realistic. Next to talking and thinking about life in its broader aspects, you love to roam, being stimulated by travel and intrigued by foreign cultures. Along with Virgo and Gemini, you're really mainly about communication since you have acute observations about people, love to swap ideas, and are a great hander on of useful information to others. Always well intentioned, you can still be honest in your comments and opinions to a degree which makes more sensitive souls wince. Ruled by lucky Jupiter, you have a permanent guardian angel present, ready to rescue you from tight corners. In your life there is always a silver lining no matter how dark the cloud. Possibly the most popular of the signs, you radiate good humour, brush aside difficulties and bounce back from problems with a laugh.

that is supposed to be my sun sign... how true is it???? well that question cannot be answered much by me.. itl b u all who hav to comment on it... so do comment... n for all those ppl who wanted a short post this is short..[:P] hope to update my blog without this much delay next time..
