The begining !!

Whoever said that a good begining is half work done, probably never finished the work. And even otherwise why can't we start a journey without knowing the destination? Why can't we just run and then one odd day announce "I'm tired. I think I'll go home now" and never pout about it. How can we overcome all the "obvious" things around us and look beyond? Look at the bigger picture of Life, Universe and Everything?

May be the answer is hidden in some book somewhere or may be the author couldn't get a publisher to publish it or may be he was born even before mankind knew how to print. We do not know. May be we can never know but the bigger question is, "Do we want to know?"

when ideas first come into being, they are fresh, raw and energetic. They may be bright or dark, happy or sad, thoughtful or nonsense but they bubble with raw energy that thrives on to change the world, they have a heart that beats for the beauty of the world around them and loves it, they are a harbinger of things to come.
And then they grow old. They mature. They pass thorugh the furnaces of expirence and what comes out is gold. These are the ideas that have a soul. They represent what this world stands for. They are also beautiful because right behind the shining gold face, there is still a heart that beats.
But not every idea has this fate. There are many who just die midway, never seeing the light of the youth. Never getting a chance to fight it out in the open and they never turn to gold. And death of an idea is not the death of one idea. It hits the source, it marrs the origin and restricts the flow and soon all that enters furnaces of expirence is dirt,scum and filth that never comes out.
So let's be dreamers today, let's say just like MLK said on the steps of Lincon Memorial that "I have a dream" and begin. About end, as we said in the beginning, we will never worry.

"As we go winding down the road,
our shadows taller than our souls,
there walks a lady we all know,
who shines white light and wants to show,
how everything still turns to gold !!"
