#167 Exchange 2020

Exchange 2020 is a crazy idea that I had some days back, inspired by Kyle MacDonald.

Your first reaction to the game would be, WHAT CRAP!!! But that is the way it is.

I set out to exchange, yes Exchange, something that I have, with something Bigger and/or Better that you would want to exchange with me.

I start with a very small and simple thing. A metal box of Wrigley’s Eclipse mints! Let’s say someone exchanges something bigger, a pencil box with me for a box of mints. I would put that pencil box up for trade in exchange of something bigger and better! What I get in exchange of the pencil box would again be put up for trade! So on…

I shall exchange things that I would get in change of the previous item. This would go on. The condition is that my barter should necessarily move in a chain. Bartering the previous item for the next. Till I get something really BIG and really GOOD!

# 166 Daffodils

Daffodils
William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a Cloud
That floats on high o'er Vales and Hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced, but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:-
A poet could not but be gay
In such a jocund company:
I gazed-and gazed-but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought.

For oft when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude,
And then my heart with pleasure fills,

And dances with the Daffodils.

# 165 I Sit Back On My Chair

Sometimes I feel I'm not myself,
I dont want to be "me" anymore.
I want to go somewhere far away,
Where I wouldn't know anybody,
And nobody would know who I am.

I wanna go far away from all relationships,
I wanna go away from all hardships,
I am not scared,
I dont want to run away.
I just want to walk out of the game,

But then I see my life is so so long,
And I haven't yet seen most of it..
And I sit back on my chair, thinking
Once again, where I am, why I am...
But mostly wondering who I am.

# 164 When I say nothing at all...

I wish I knew who I am, where I am and why I am! I wish I knew the answers to the questions you asked me, to the questions I ask myself.

There comes a time when nothing goes right. From the moment you wake up in the morning, till the moment you finally go into deep sleep. Even after that things may go wrong. Dreams may ruin even the most peaceful of the moments. I hope my dreams never come true. Never! Ever! Cos I've seen amongst the worst dreams anybody could ever see. I hope you don't see the dreams I have seen. I've seen nightmares in the day. I've seen bad dreams while fully awake. I don't know if they were dreams or if they really happened. I just don't want to believe them.

What is it that one feels when one is lost? What happens when one can't feel the presence of anyone around him even after being physically there? What is it that happens when you are looking at a person you know very dearly but you don't know who it is? Or if you are looking at a thing you've seen everyday of your life but you still can't make out what you are looking at?

If drops of tears just start rolling of your cheeks like the drops of dew that roll down the leaves and petals, even when you are silent and everything around you is silent, what does it mean? If something has such an impact on you that you cant even utter a word, what would you do? If you feel so heavy that you can't even move your foot one foot ahead, how would you go? If you cant even stand up after you've sat down, and everyone around you has got up and left, how would you move? When your eyes are filled with salt water, how would you even see what is in front of you? When your gut has filled with emotions how would even a word come out of it? How?

How long will I stay alone? If I have to stay alone, I'd rather do that without anybody that I already know. Let me go to places you have not seen. Let me be with people whom you would never see. Let me eat and drink what they do. Let me be a peasant. Let me be a shepherd. Let me be...

I don't need someone to laugh and cry with, I need a companion. I need a friend.

#163 Six Billion People... Thats a fact!

At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just not facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world, six billion souls. And sometimes…all you need is one.

Picked up from an orkut profile I randomly landed upon... the writer of the above piece claims it to be original... hats off to her! http://blahblahblahbue.blogspot.com/
