The Downfall of one Mr.Adil Zaid...

-

“Well, i am adil zaid, and i fell down….

And it wasn’t a single hurdle that tripped me; for the hurdles were never too high and the climb was never too steep. And my limbs are strong and my passion unrelenting and my will unbending. But who says we only fall when we stuble on our path…Sometimes we just fumble and fall cause we get tired of walking and we can’t allow ourselves to take a rest. Sometimes we deliberate our fall so we can get out of this mad race for the supposed peak. Sometimes we just fall to get out of the race we are no longer inclined to run. Sometimes we fall not when the path gets tough but when our inner self discards all will to move.

I’m not a depressive…but i don’t trust happiness. I dont hate people but i dislike being with them too much. How much is too much? I can’t say. People say i’m a poet and a philosopher, but they miss the point. They focus more on my hairstyle than my content. I’m not a bore, although having fun and enjoying myself might not be on the top of my list. I demand my peace, and pray for you to let me be in peace. And i pray for peace to be upon you too…

I’m not interested in theory, but to put it into practice. I love experimenting. And i get bruised aplenty.

I’m a grunge soul as i torture myself when i feel like setting the world on fire, cause that would be impolite.

And i’m a kiddin’ you with my bullshit. Only thing is i like to believe in it too…”

It is a mad mad world out there...as you remind me of the Lion and Gazelle story.
And it's not too high or too steep and it's not one peak that we're trying to reach.we're all running after different things. and here's the point dude, actually about the world famous question "Does the end justify the means?" and the answer is, "No, It does not".
So when you feel like stopping and taking a rest or distancing yourself it is not so bad as just running along and cursing..."Uski maan ...ya uski behen...cursing your friends, your boss, grudging your family..."
No dude! take a break and take a rest and join the race where you want...It's called owning up to your life and in the end that counts! accepting responsibility with love.
I pray for you too and you're my hero too, so keep living and keep loving.
Sometimes being down and out is the best way to recuperate 'coz sometimes when we just keep on running we lose track.
But always find the courage man to get back into the race,It'll come to if you look, always!

Dheet-Trekkers' Bike Trip to Bhutan

View Larger Map Dates : 10th June, 2012 to 17th June, 2012 The Dheet-Trekkers :   PP , Manish Kutaula , Khandi, Danish, Upreti , Amit Bisht & yours' truly Dheet7 :  "So what is the secret behind being an expert biker?" Dheet1 : " It’s simple. Just grip the handle firmly, and make sure the bike stays underneath your ass and not the other way round…" How do I find the words to describe this trip of ours? Well, if you’ve ever seen the video of the  headless chicken  on Youtube, you’ll know.  Without our  Sardar , the planner and the shepherd, we were just a bunch of rebels without a clue. But I kid you… The fact is, it was a wondrous trip, immaculately timed (by chance). We not only had our first experience of riding an Enfield in the hills, amidst green valleys and treacherous fog and rain, but we were introduced to a nation that although is considered one of the poorest countries of the world, but where we met some of the most ci

Ctulu dawn....

A belief in the supernatural comes with a weakening of the self…. A long time ago, the earth was a lonely place. The population was too little, the land was too barren, or may be too forested, or too icy and there were wild beasts, for taming animals was not known. It was the treacherous place where only the fittest survived. Man was weak; man was vulnerable; man was helpless against nature. Out there, God was the only protector. Then some wise guy invented the wheel and some other discovered fire, and all that jazz. Populations grew, tribes began to form and civilizations began to happen. God this time, was not just a protector; religion became a way of life for the people, a way of disciplining the masses, a means of suppressing the old animal instincts. Gods were on top of unreachable hills, God was the holy Mother in nature, God was the one supreme power the people bowed down to. The civilizations grew and came into conflict with one another. Powers, wealth and egos grew. An

On Innovation, Or The Lack Thereof

-
Inspite of having the IITs and holding some of the toughest college entrance exams in the world, we in India lag far behind the West when it comes to innovation and invention in the fields of mechanical, civil and electrical engineering. However, we are as good as any other nation, if not better, in innovation in the field of software development. It is worth thinking about what could be the reason why the West is so advanced in these fields whereas we lag behind. Even the R&D departments in our country do little other than validate field results and homologate western technology to suit Indian needs. I was once listening to Steve Via’s for the love of god when it occurred to me what a wonderful piece of engineering laid in the small earphones in my ears. But long before this speaker saw the mechanized mass production in factories, and long before it came to be invented in a laboratory, there must have been someone who must have put a piece of paper or a leaf from a tree be
