DOGS DAY!!!!

Dogs day!!!!!

Another evening after a horrible day in college and I was on the boulevards of college, with a frnd, talking various day-to-day stuffs and there was this dog, sleeping under a tree, unperturbed by everything around him, and there was this feeling of immense complacency in his face. Impromptu my friend said, “yar es kutte ki jindagi humse achchi hai.” I replied,” yar cool down, we are not so bad.”

Late in night when I was lying on my bed, this incident flashed back. I started to think about t n t nearly startled me. ””The dogs life indeed s better than ours””. He gets all the food stuffs we get, coffee, breakfast, lunch, tea, snacks, dinner and milk just like any other of us. He indeed has friends n family like anyone else. He also has a well defined place to live in. Then what s there that differenciate us from them???

He doesn’t have to wake up early and rush to college as we have to do. He doesn’t have to listen to the draconian professors who like Dracula are bloodthirsty n survive on our blood(to be prcise most of them r a sadist lot). They don’t have to attend lab, for the mandatory 75% attendance, as if every lab we gonna create a software n turn up into next bill gates, God!. And worst part, getting scolded by some novice lecturer for doing nothing in lab. Hell! Look @ u. And the submission of assignments, records n bla bla bla. God knows wat a big irritation t s. Even if someone wanna do sumthin gud, the hectic life did not allow him to follow his course.

All those worries of life, all those confusion irritation pain agony regrets ( for what u hv done as well as for what u hv not done)keeps haunting me. There is this fear of failure, of confusion about what to do, what not to do, of pain n agony of all those things that shud hv been with me, but r not. These give me nightmares n test me to d core. I really wanna know if these dogs feel d same. Do they get these nightmares n wake up in d middle of nite( as a matter of fact I never do) looking for some soothing place to hide away from everything? Given a chance I wanna listen silence, see darkness, read thoughts, morph myself, move like wind.

Nice post , dude! I totally agree with you. The saying "every dog has his day" doesn't hold good anymore. For us "every man has his day"!
cheers!

Hi.. Nice post no doubt.. You have improved a lot since the "murphy" thingy.. ;-)... But i hope this post was written more out of a compulsive desire to write and not with as strong a feeling as this post potrays ... There is definitely a difference b/w "Mr.Dog" and you. (sorry!! I dont know the qualified name of the dog u r talking bout... There used to be one whom we used to call h*******r... Dont know if its him.. Neways i added "Mr" so that it doesnt antagonize the dog... There's no intent on my side to damage his/her repo with you )...

But getting back to the issue.. Yeah definitely there are somethings in the environment you are, that can be at times very frustrating... Coz the environment you are in, isnt content just by not providing you any positive energy rather it also leaves no stone unturned in sucking whatever is left... But i think the option you have is not to choose whether to be in that environment or not .. The option is either to be frustrated with the environment (which by experience (not just mine but also of many others like us) i can tell you will lead you nowhere ) or to take it as a challenge and find means to do what you want to do rather than what you are forced to do... And believe me this battle will be everywhere throughout your life.. Though in most of the places not as intense as u r facing right now.. The option you have is how to bend things in your favour... How to bend the system in your favour.. (I am surprised that u guys still do assignments even after being with the "expert" :-) for so many days)... Anyways your energy should be yours and you should not allow anything to make you loose your focus... I and mark my words if u keep your focus till the end your your last academic year.. The environment you are currently in just wont matter after that... Just find out where you need to be focussed and forget the frustration.. And this exactly will mark the difference between you and your "Mr. Doggy".. (Dont forget to give my regards to him)
