What's the QUESTION?

Have you ever been awe-struck? By quality, charm or precision?

Do you call fortune the optimist's belief or the pessimist's luck?

Have you been part of something larger than life that makes you feel worthwhile and gives you immense satisfaction?

Twisted illusion or harsh reality? Immortality or eternity?

Does work make you happy? Or you'd like to just get done with it?

Pizza Hut, Manish Malhotra and The Hyatt or food, clothing and shelter?

Have you ever kissed the sunshine and ridden the wave both at once?

Do you belong to the section that lives to party or the category that takes work so seriously that they'd probably have a nervous breakdown by the age of 21?

Is it that beautiful flower or the colourful butterfly that distracts you?

Do you just do something because you can, you have to or you want to?

Prisms, crystals and diamonds or alkali, test tubes and chemical formulae?

Chrome yellow, cherry red, sea green or aqua blue?

Pencils, erasers and crayons or Adobe photoshop, Quark express and Dreamweaver?

Mahatma Gandhi, Shaheed Bhagat Singh and Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj or Barkha Dutt, Chetan Bhagat, Mom and Dad?

Goa, rave and madness or blogs, wikis and conventions?

And last but not the least... (Thanks to my dearest friends)
What's your name Mansi and do you count sheep in your sleep Jo? :-)

Wondering why I've posted this piece and you're reading it too? Keep thinking...

it didn't sound all thayt nonsensical....
it made perfect sense.n indicated quite cleary ur pattern of thought at a certain point i time. :)

however, had thsi actually been nonsensical, it would hav easily qualified as nonsense verse or at least, literary nonsense.

either way, it demonstrates to a great extent ur ability to pen down all ur thoughts....something that poets n novelists n authors are all
reputed for.

:)

jus thought i'll say it again.-really nice stuff. :)

sad... but i dont hav a blog. :(

but i'll be around here 'on the net' & 'in the world' , wired in to everythin around me.

so u won't find it difficult to find me or reach me or read my thoughts (were u to ever feel the urge)....

ps- jus wonderin, did u originally get the inspiration 4 the style of writing from Caroll himself, or someone else?

(if u haven't tried it yet, check out some of the russians who try to dabble in it.-rather hillarious!)

what about somewhere in between the two ends??

Karishma Desai said...

That's always the route that people end up taking right? But to most of the questions the answer could be 'both' or either one or something completely different... And again in most cases the two extremes are too different in nature to be somewhere in between... If you get my point...
