All you need is love...

John Lennon... smart man!
Sad that he aint alive anymore. He would've written a LOT of beautiful stuff for sure.

Anyway... back to the topic. All you need is love. Is that why I've been screwing up things in my life? Academics.. Engineering wasnt really the love of my life... only I figured it out a bit too late... (duh!!!). Work... Code is still a code to me. And do I even hope to decode it someday? Comments withheld (what if my boss reads this sometime?)

Life has suddenly become too full of question marks.. From acads to work to relationships to everything else... Bah!!! Have I lost it??? Shit.. another question!!!! Damn this punctuation.. Sometimes I wonder if I'd been better off never reading that Wren and Martin book in school.

That apart... think about it... dude had a point... J.L. i mean... when you are busy doing something that you love... you never get tired. Even if it something as "tiring" as working out. If you are thinking of doing something that you love, conviction follows on its own. When you are with people you love, not a moment is dull.. even if it's nothing that you are doing. If you are looking forward to something that you would love, it doesnt matter how forward that forward is.
Maybe that's what the answer to all (my) problems is... all things that seem sad.. bad or miserable... Remember.. to let her into your heart... then you can start.. to make it better!! :D
Beatles again!!
I probably live my life in their songs. Possibly because I love them.

And that'll bring us back to the Lennon dude. Hats Off to him again!! Maybe he's right. Love IS all you need.
Until I move on to another question and another answer.. Let It Be!!!

n"No I .. don't wanna fall in love .. with you" - Chris Isaak crooned in his sexy voice making hundreds of women fall in love (and maybe some men too) with him.
"Listen .. Do you want to know a secret ? Do you promise not to tell ? Closer .. Let me whisper in your ears .. Say the words you long to hear .. I'm in love with you .." - who else ?
So many people writing so many things about that four letter word (and many other four letter words). Wonder how many really know the true meaning of it. Or is there a meaning to it ? No, i won't quote that 90's song "what is love ?" (#$%@@#@ !!!) We do need to love. That's what i feel. Irrespective of what the returns are (if at all there are any). It's what keeps people moving. "Soul food" as they say - without that I go hungry. Can't love from the mind. Have to do it from the heart. Hence, to decide what to love doesn't come into the picture. Unless one thinks from the heart too. Wonder when's the time we realise that we are in love and that this is my love. Guess it's a really happy moment.

Coming to the love for people - we love them for who they are (at least I do). Ever wondered why we love our kids ? Or even our parents ? Kids are born. And we shower them with our love. Irrespective of them being total assholes or angels (they're human too - they have a choice !). Maybe we love them because we're supposed to love them ? Doesn't sound nice ? Take this - we're born into this world and if we're lucky or unlucky (depending on how you see it), we're taken care of by our parents. And as we grow, we love them. Why ? Because they're our parents ? Till the time we're old enough to understand what's right and what's wrong (I can write a novel on right and wrong now) we love them, maybe because we're taught to love them. Doesn't sound nice either ? Think about it.

Coming back to love for our work, it brings in a sense of passion that's kind of directly proportional to our producitivity at work. Frustrating if you don't love it !

Yeah - "All you need is love".

what is love after all?

Gocha said...

dude . . . life is a wicked game . . . and love is just a part of it. . .

but never mind . . . the point is Kalindi has a secrey admirer, who loves his kids . . . and has a guilty conscience about not loving his parents as much he should . .


fucked up people with fucked up ideas . . . who is max bura? what is max bura?

"wats love got to do, got to do with it, wats love but a second-hand emotion" - the guy who wrote this was defenitely in love... :)
