Suicide: The last resort???

This is an article in TOI on May 15,2012 (i.e. today) which talks about alarming rate of suicide in Gurgaon, Haryana, India. 104 suicides in 4 months!!! with maximum number of people belonging to age group 20-30 years!!! I am not able to understand why these people, who are at the very beginning of their lives decide to end it?? Is it because the problems they are facing are so big that ending their lives is the only choice?? or is it because they are so weak that they cannot solve their problems and move on?? Whatever the cause is, I would not want to comment on that as I don't have any idea about it.

The Dance of Democracy

I am finally writing after a long time, a bit disturbed by whatever is going on in my beloved Nation. We say it is a democracy. Of course it is. Or is it???

The Biker Within...

My passion with bikes started with my bicycle and my Dad’s Bajaj Chetak. I always wanted to learn how to ride, but was told I wasn’t old enough. My best friend used to stand in front of his father and controlled handle and throttle. I wasn’t allowed to do the same. This passion began as a competition with friends and as I grew up, took entirely different meaning…

Lost n Found...

Does it ever occur to you that you feel lost? When you feel that something is simply not right? When you find yourself on a cross road and don’t know where to go? Well, at least it has happened to me. Not once, not twice, but many times. Whenever it happens to me, I try to do some soul searching.

Fading Memories...

When we were kids, friendship was meant to be pure, fight was meant to be fair and love was meant to be unconditional. As we grow up, though the theoretical definitions remain the same, the practice differs. We make friends to get benefits, fight mostly stands for back-biting, and love??? Well, that is the costliest commodity of the market. It literally takes everything from you, well, whether in terms of money or something else.
