Boast of Quietness by Jorge Luis Borges
Writings of light assault the darkness, more prodigious than meteors.
The tall unknowable city takes over the countryside.
Sure of my life and death, I observe the ambitious and would like to
understand them.
Their day is greedy as a lariat in the air.
Their night is a rest from the rage within steel, quick to attack.
They speak of humanity.
My humanity is in feeling we are all voices of that same poverty.
They speak of homeland.
My homeland is the rhythm of a guitar, a few portraits, an old sword,
the willow grove’s visible prayer as evening falls.
Time is living me.
More silent than my shadow, I pass through the loftily covetous multitude.
They are indispensable, singular, worthy of tomorrow.
My name is someone and anyone.
I walk slowly, like one who comes from so far away he doesn’t expect to arrive

My Dream..
Look out from the window
that’s my dream which is flying
that’s my dream leaving me
leaving me all alone
leaving me in this box
Open up the window
for I need to catch my dream
I need my dream to carry on
to look forward to another day
Let me go
I need to stop my dream from running away
I need to tell me dream that I still care
I still need it to be where I want to go
Look at the clouds
They took my dream in their arms
They are taking it to a new place
to a new city and new people
That was my dream which left me
But now it belongs to another little girl
She is cherishing it like I did
I hope this time it won’t run away
and stay with her forever…

He said.. She said..
“She was looking nice today”
“Yeah!”
“I wish I could look like that”
“hmmm”
“You think she looks better than me”
“Whhaaatt??”
If someone chose to be with you, they did so because they wanted to. You are the most gorgeous person ever for them. Don’t doubt their decision because of your own insecurities.

Old Memories..
Any one remember this Gem from Faiz
“Mujh Se Pehli Si Mohabbat, Mere Mehboob, Na Maang
Main Ne Samjha Tha Ke Tu Hai Tau Darakshaan Hai Hayaat
Tera Gham Hai Tau, Gham-e-Daher Ka Jhagda Kya Hai
Teri Surat Se Hai Aalam Mein Bahaaron Ko Basaa
Teri Ankhon Ke Siva Duniya Mein Rakha Kya Hai
Tu Jo Mil Jaaye Tau Taqdeer Nigun Ho Jaye
Yun Na Tha……… Maine Faqat Chaha Tha, Yun Ho Jaaye
An-Ginat Sadiyon Ke Tareek Bahimana Tilism
Resham-0-Atlas-O-Kamkhwaab Mein Bunvaaye Huye
Ja-Ba-Ja Bikhte Huye Kucha-O-Bazaar Mein Jism
Khaak Mein Lithade Huye, Khoon Mein Nahalaye Huye
Laut Jaati Hai Udhar Ko Bhi Nazar Kya Kijiye
Ab Bhi Dil-Kash Hai Tera Husn Magar Kya Kijiye
Aur Bhi Dukh Hai Zamaane Mein Mohabbat Ke Siva
Rahatein Aur Bhi Hai Vasl Ki Rahat Ke Siva“
I found its translation here
And the best part that I rediscovered.. version sang by Noorjahan

Transformations
First you lose trust, which in turn takes away your innocence,
then your ideals leave,
then your values,
and one fine day, your real self is missing too..
This is what becomes of adults in this world….
I wish I was still a kid.. playing with friends from all around.. imaginative and real

WordPress Support Rocks
As some of you might already know, due to all that password-hacking, email-a/c-deactivations, new-id-creations n blah blah.. I also lost my wordpress access. And I love this blog address. I’m still sad that it doesn’t exist on blogspot anymore. Lots of memories were there. Almost 3 years I think. Is anyone still here from those days? Anyways, I contacted support and they’ve been angel enough to grant me access (of course after verifying personal details and stuff).
So Here I am. Back again.
Saying a huge Thank You to Support Guys. You guys Rock.

This or That
“We can try to avoid making choices by doing nothing, but even that is a decision.”
-Gary Collins
We all wish for good things, but have you realized they all somehow always come together. Not that it is a bad thing. But sometimes, it causes so much of confusion.
You need to take decisions which might alter your life.
Some decisions would affect your loved ones and some your future.
How do you know which is the right one?
How would you decide in favor of 1 but not the other?
And whats the guarantee that you won’t repeat your previous mistakes?
Ah.. so much to think about, no wonder nothing can be decided…
“Take your life in your own hands and what happens? “
“A terrible thing: no one to blame.”

Wheels keep turning..
Some things are not supposed to matter, but they do.
Some people are not supposed to hurt you, but they do.
Some times are not supposed to be bad, but they are.
Funny how removing someone’s name from your address book can hurt. Or being removed from someone’s list.
We like to hold on to those last threads. We like to pretend we are fine. We like to pretend nothing affects us. Yet, the sound of broken guitar strings go deep and you cannot not hear it.
But then again, that’s good because now you’ll never hear it again ever.
Let’s not unman each other – part at once;
All farewells should be sudden, when forever,
Else they make an eternity of moments,
And clog the last sad sands of life with tears.
~Lord Byron

Learning about new Stuff..
Adobe Tech Summit Rocks! No other words for it. You have these great speakers coming in and giving sessions. You have people presenting their Ideas. You have people showcasing their products. You can ask anyone about anything (of course it has to be within their domain/product area 
) The level of enthusiasm and innovation is just so inspiring. It is things like this which makes Adobe a great company for techies..
By the way, If you haven’t tried AIR by now (Shame on you) Do it Now… Its the future..
Probably I’ll feel more geeky someday and would blog about RIA.. til now.. Ciao
