It seems that the world over a "freedom movement" is taking place. The generation of boomers have finally taken charge of their destiny. Stuck in place where they can't live under the shadows of their elders nor can they be as confused as their younger generations, the boomers have taken upon themselves to live the rest of their life enjoying independence and liberty.
The intrinsic need of a person is "expression of his individualism", and with mass media and internet playing the music of freedom, liberty and anti - establishment at full blast its very hard for the oppressed not to wonder. The Egyptian got rid of a corrupt establishment and will soon enjoy a democratic leadership which will allow for the first time the individual to rise in the country.
We the so called Generation X born and brought up in a democratic, secular and tolerant country sometimes take the freedom given to us for granted. Since birth we are not the slaves of royalty nor the followers of a community leader. We were groomed with formal education not is religious textures. The world is an oyster to us rather than a mine field. We made decisions because its us who want to do it, we don't follow some mislead people.
This is the true power of our generation, this is want our ancestors fought for. Freedom is when I express myself here without any inhibitions about my words.

taking sides!
They say, if you don't have an opinion then you don't exist. Let it be right or wrong but you should stand for something.
Diplomacy is a disease which kills the essence out of the good, and leaves you with a lot less people in your life. It soaks the living sense out of you and shuns you in the deep corners of self denial and grief.
For once taking sides might make you the bad, but it leaves smiles on the face you care about. I say its all worth it, if you want to see the same faces after five years still being a part of your lives, rest are just a blur going through the motions of your life.
There are things which are not done, not said, not acted upon and the build up to resentment and self doubt. Lending a hand and lifting a person up from the darkness is the fact of the matter. But that darkness and grey should not pull you inside so that you, yourself drown in the grey and the ugly.
Time and again when faced by complex human emotions, these words help me make sense of it all. Emotions have many facets but I guess I've blunted a few of them inside of myself. They have eroded over the years and shown me the real image of myself. But in the process left me with cavities.
Ive always masked my real emotions by my words but today all I want to say is, I can't be emotionally stretched, because thats one thing that will pushes me towards things which I have left behind. Life is simple for me, I have goals and a long bucket list and I live, and let others Live.
I let people make their own mistakes and learn from them, I accept them as they are, then again my intolerance for certain judgmental people is increasing, and I don't know what to do of it. I'm at that stage of my life, when I look behind I see a blur.
And my fears are coming true once again, but this time I'm stronger and it would be lot easier going through it.

Words Unheard
There used to be time when I was addicted to blogging, my day and night used to revovle around my blog. This space was my home; something I used to come back to which would always accept me with open arms.
It would be a patient listener at times and at times the biggest source of my inspiration.It was there when the times were tough and also during the joyous times.
It was the reason I got my first job which followed a string of other events. Some which were just dreams and came true.
It been a while that i'v stopped coming here, its not just that I don't have time, It's just that sometimes your thoughts are so cluttered that even words can untangle them. They say that "new beginings bring about new life", but sometimes it takes some time to set course into the new life.
And sometimes we get so blinded by the brighness of the new life that we forget the old self and the old dreams. The dreams for which we had set our course for. The brightness tricks us into taking wrong turns and causes undue pain. And when the light finally fades is when we see the path clearly. The path we were destined to walk.
There is nothing wrong is charting a new course but never forget the path to your dreams
P.S - It feels great to be writing again :D
