Buzz ..

Life's chugging along as usual! I finished reading "Life of Pi" today ...totally engrossing read, it's easily the best one I've read this year. I can already imagine myself as Pi Patel, sailing the Pacific in a lifeboat with a Royal Bengal Tiger for company :).

I live in a world of dreams, I dream about adventure,travel and leisure.. As they say, reality bites! My life is far removed from all I want it to be but I'm not complaining. I've learned to separate dreams from reality.. I've reached a point in life where the path forward is forked into two..one, they say, is the path towards success, the well-trodden path ..the one which is forced upon me by reality. The other strays off into the wilderness, promising none of success and all that comes with it.. but it is enchanting, refreshing and promises happiness,meaning and fosters desire.My brain chooses the former path while my heart beats for the latter. The laws of human biology state emphatically that the brain makes all our decisions, the heart is just another bundle of muscles supplying blood. I'm no exceptional human; my brain makes all my decisions.I'll take the path chosen by reality.

Yet, I vow to come back.. come back to where it all began and make the most important decision of my life- I'll take the path of my dreams.
I'll listen to my heart. I'll listen with diligent ears.
