Happy New Year


I am not one for New Year Resolutions. They are like a prostitute's promise of virginity. They last only for a night. With a tinge of blood spilled, all innocence is lost and all promises are forgotten. You move on, the virgin moves on and, hanging in mid-air, remains, the promise of virginity. Despite all this, I have made a few Old Year resolutions (they were made throughout the year of 2008) and like the lover, estranged, comes to the bed next night, seeking virgin promise. I have come back to fulfill a few of mine to keep the momentum of breathing going. Here is a list of the promises I made to myself and known only to me are the ones on the road of fulfillment :-)

  1. Learn to Play guitar
  2. Get a tattoo
  3. Learn Boxing
  4. Climb a few more mountains
  5. Watch all the kind of movies I like to watch
  6. Watch as many plays, go to as many concerts so on and on
  7. Travel extensively -
  8. take a 3-4 day trip once every 2-3 months
  9. Have a month long holiday every year for traveling
  10. Trek as often as possible
  11. Photograph extensively
  12. UPDATE THE BLOG REGULARLY
  13. ................
  14. .......................
  15. .............................
  16. ................................
nth. Make a movie

Here is to never losing our virginity.

मैं तो सोच रहा था कि एक संकल्प यह भी होगा कि मैं नियमित रूप से हिन्दी में लिखूंगा - खैर :-(
