Through the thoughts.

I need to get a hair cut ASAP.

Oh yeah, I need to cut my nails too. They are long and filled with dirt.

I love it when I resolve something by logical thinking.

Why are managers so fucking dumb and incompetent?

I'm happy I'm in the right stream on the career front, after years of thinking and bad judgement.

I dont know what to wear to work tomorrow.

My cousin has taken my hard drive and I'm really missing some songs.

Planning a short trip to Mysore on Sunday, hoping it'll be a good one.

I hate mobiles phones, its an absolute pain in the obvious areas.

    My love for music.

    I left early to work. Scorching sun, literally burning the skin, I turned on the radio and did not concentrate on the RJ making the announcement of the song before she played the song. As the song played on, I totally fell in love with the melody and regretted not concentrating on the name. I remembered the RJ saying something with 'M' and all along the song I could hear 'Stop chasing shadows, just enjoy the ride'. I turned off the radio (did not want to lose the melody), stopped the car aside and noted that down. The moment I got to work, even before I could go to my desk, I hooked upto the network and googled for the above phrase.

    The song was Morcheeba - Enjoy the ride.

    I hate missing out on melodies. I was so glad to get the song right. I put on my headphones and listened to the song peacefully, with a contended smile on my face.

    Song of the day.

    Just cant get enough of this. Have been playing this again and again for the past few days. Starts slowly and ends on a high note.

    Linkin Park - Minutes to Midnight - Shadow of the day

    Worth a download. MP3 is way better than the above YouTube link.

    Visions of the sub-conscious.

    I had this dream the other night and it was the weirdest of all the dreams I ever had. I believe dreams are manifestation of the sub-conscious. But, sub-conscious cannot exist without the
    conscious. So, all the dreams are somehow related to reality. Correct me if I'm wrong.

    Its so hard to type. Why cant we just think and the words get written? Well.

    Surrounded by huge walls of stone, I'm standing facing away from a mansion, looking at the huge gates open to let the chariots come through. I look around and I start to think I'm alone and as
    I'm looking around I see someone. I begin to think he's my friend. Lets call him X. More important is, as soon as the chariots are let in, we (X and me) storm outside the gates, as they are closed. From outside the gates, the mansion looked less huge. As we are out, I start running towards my right, slowly looking backwards. I see a huge Pushkarani (usually found next to temples). There was not much water, as I remember. This one had a passage of steps which led into the Pushkarani.

    As I'm looking at the passage, I see a huge, I mean HUGE Lion like animal barging out as if its just been released from captivity. I get scared and suddenly I see a shotgun in my hand and I see X has a shotgun too and he's running before me. Then my focus shifts to the animal and this time I 'm having a closer look and I can see its ferocious and its running towards the same direction that me and X are running in. Suddenly, I see 5 to 6 green hound like animals, only larger, towards the Lion.

    The next thing I see is me and X running back to the mansion and we're scared to death. We look back and the green hounds disappear and the Lion is now in the opposite direction, chasing us. We make it inside the gates with our eyes still at the gates as we see the Lion is distracted as it gets just near to the gate. We run into the haunted mansion (yes, haunted) and we can hear the
    Lion behind us, although we cant see it. We run into rooms, halls and passages in an effort to escape the Lion. After some time, I'm again found with a shotgun, coming out of a door next to the main door and I see I cannot go any further as everything is fenced. As I stand helpless, I can hear the Lion coming out of a door next to my door, I tell myself, this is it.

    Picture this in a slow motion. I point my shotgun towards the Lion as it comes out of the door and I take a shot right into its face. As the Lion gets shot, it transforms partially into a man (still huge), gets pushed to the fence and falls down. I turn around to see everybody dressed in uptight formals, giving a you've-done-it smile. I smile back at them as the shotgun slips out of my hands. On yeah, the shot is something like a flash of light that hits the face of the Lion.

    By the time I could see anything else, I'm awake and the alarm is ringing.

    Tarot (reality? belief? coincidence?)

    I usually check the Tarot when I get some free time at work. Somehow, today, I forgot to check the Tarot. There were some decisions made, hearts broken and disappointment all over the place. In the first place, I didn’t understand why all this was happening to me (why me?). I was disturbed. As the day came to an end, I made myself strong, told myself that this was not the end and that there were greater things in life. By the time I reached home, I was completely confident and knew what I should do. It felt great. There are things beyond my perception and I began to think whatever happened, happened for good. I decided I will not lose patience and make a hasty move. I ate the fruits and drank the milk (my mom teh bestest!) and went upstairs to my room.

    I check my mails (gmail) only after coming home as its blocked at work. Then BAM! I realized I hadn’t checked out the Tarot. To my absolute coincidence, the Tarot was as below.

    The High Priestess
    The High Priestess is the mysterious one and counterpart to the Magician. She symbolizes all that we are unable to perceive or comprehend, as she travels in dimensions that we can only imagine exist. She is able to uncover the infinite potential that exists within all humans. Her patience is perhaps her greatest virtue.

    It’s not the first time this has happened to me. I can recollect, like countless times through the years, out of the blue, when I least expect it. I never understood why such things happen. I’m just glad that it made my day.

    Is there an explanation?
