the return

its sure been a while since i have last been able to post, and by Jove i hate that. i miss my blog. anyways, the intricate twists and turns of life are as interesting as always. new stories about new people in new situations. each day is as new as the previous.

i can't seem to have enough of India and this has led to me personally believing that coming back to India was the smartest thing i have done in a long long time. Baroda is rocking (quite literally so) and time is flying while i pursue my dreams. but enough of me!! the humdrum details of my life in Baroda are not on review here...there are other things i must talk about; if only i could find the words...

"words, words, words"

...Hamlet said it to vent out his exasperation at Polonius's question...quite apt that i use them today when i find myself in a similar situation.

have been reading up quite a bit of late. philosophy, literature, theology, et al...you name it...Foucart, Kafka, Marx, Marquez, etc...and right now i feel like my brain is in overload. the thoughts and ideas are swarming around inside and the days are passing by in lucidity as i engage in one fascinating discourse after another with people from backgrounds as diverse as the imagination that men possess.

can't but help feel restless knowing that i know only so much. i need to know more. i want to know more. i want many things, and i cannot but help say the truth when i quote Marx:

"our intellectuals & philosophers have only interpreted the world. the point is to change it."

...i want to change the world. at least my world.

Changing the own little world - it should be easy, isn't it?
One needs only a capacity to act.
But do we always own that capacity??
In my life there have been times with a great capacitiy to act - but right now it's rather small.
In any case I wish you that you will be able changing your world in the way you are imagining!

Besides that I am very glad that you' commented again on my blog - I've missed you!!!

Ja Bru,

What's up? Jesus, you have disapeared for a couple of months there. I wonder sometimes that maybe Jess is right. Weird to say, but I do. Maybe in the backround there lurks a girl....Hmmmmmm, nah, that can not be right...I mean, you are just Nachi, right? Our little younger brother!

Anyway, bru I hope you had an incredible time in Mauritius and you are enjoying being back home. Just thought to say Hi for a change.

Anyway, be good, be great and just be you..

Ciao

OH PS: India got fucked up in South Africa. Y'all suck bru. Cricket ain't for you. It doesn't even matter if you have Tendulkar, Dravid and that one ugly wicky keeper....They suck. Peace!
