Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy

Neither am I a hitchhiker nor a guide…I just loved the book. The author in his comical sci-fi way has hit the nail hard on the head to some underlying questions, answers to which we still seek!

Are we really alone or is there life in a different plane of the universe? Is earth just an experiment by life forms more evolved than us? What happens to us after we die? What is the purpose of life itself?
However much you might deny it….the fact is somewhere deep inside us we are all curious to find the answer to these ultimate questions.

There is an unknown force in this universe which we cannot control and yet we are so intricately linked to it in many ways. This is the very force that conspires in bringing to us what we really want at the same time take away what we truly desire at the snap of a finger.

Your school of thought could be science or religion, Charles Darwin’s theories or the theology in the holy books. I believe them to be mere speculations of the whole picture that hides from us.

‘The Truth is still out there’

Hopefully, If I keep looking then it will find me someday!

Nothing is constant BUT change

In a jiffy…Another year has gone by…….!!!

Come New Years Eve and there is a festive excitement in the air. It is a time to make new resolutions with a zest to start afresh and let bygones be bygones!
The clock strikes 12 while you toast to a hope of a better tomorrow and gear up to ride new flights of fantasy!

Just after the jubilation dies down and there is nothing more to rejoice about, I feel a void difficult to describe. It is as if I have left some part of me behind and no matter what I cannot get it back!!

After all….Years will turn to decades and decades to centuries…
Nothing endures but CHANGE

Wishing happiness and prosperity to all!
Cheers!!
