Being free- Just a state of mind

I want to go and scream my lungs out.
I want to get drenched in rain.
I want to clobber a car with a sledge hammer.
I want to sit alone and stare aimlessly.
I want to do something I havent done in a long time.
I want to do things without having to think about the consequences of spending time in doing them.

On the art of flying

Rule 1

NEVER expect to be seated beside a good looking woman.

Rule 2

NEVER violate Rule 1.

Rule 3

If you happen to be hopeful and violate Rule 1, give yourself a knock on your head and follow rule 1.

Some observations...

Disclaimer: these are purely my opinions and observations..they need not necessarily be correct

Recycled air in the aircraft sucks.

I think air stewards/ stewardesses are pretty pissed off, but just put a smiling face. If you observe carefully, there is a "How dumb can you get" look almost always when the aircraft ascends/ descends.

I always wanted to know the real reason for the small hole in the window of the plane. Now that I know, I'm glad I guessed it right. And then I smiled and looked at the air hostess. And she gave me the "how dumb can you get" look. IGNORE :)

Coffee at the airport always sucks. Yup, it quite literally sucks all your interest in having coffee again.

There is always a 'desi' pretending to be an American and will invariably NEVER acknowledge you...more so in the airport.

The ground crew always look at the pilot with the "Come on man!...you know better than that" look.

Somehow, the body language of people working on a laptop in an airport suggests they WANT US to 'see' that they DON'T WANT us to see them...remember..they are working very hard! in an airport!!

Moms aren't really bothered about the behavior of their kids....they really aren't bothered!! if it were up to them they would also join their kids in kicking the back of the seat :|

Dressing sense of Indian men on flights SUCKS (couldn't find a bigger font).

I can never read a book on flight...I simply haven't been able to read a book for more than 20 pages.

Do the pilots automate their voices for regular announcements?

Till date...I HAVE ALWAYS sat near the wings.

My closest encounter to breaking rule 1 was on my first trip outside India on a flight to Paris. But Rule 1 has its own mysterious ways...a beautiful woman was to sit beside me...she comes and asks me if I could change my seat...and where am I seated? in the center seat of the middle column...beside a woman and her 2 children!!

Remember Rule 1 has its mysterious ways!! If u mess with it...it'll spank you and say "Ayee! Respect my authoritaah!"

Cheers

My genetic program

Am I genetically programmed to be lazy... or am I genetically programmed to live life on my own terms?.. I cannot say.

I think I am genetically programmed to learn....never for a profitable cause...but do I? No!... I also live to fulfill other's expectation of me.
I think I am genetically programmed to speak my mind...always...but do I?...No! I fear being misunderstood.
I think I am genetically programmed to be carefree...but am I? No!.. I am conscious about by behavior.
I think I am genetically programmed to be fun loving...am I? Do I allow myself to be so? mostly yes..but I don't think it's always so.
I think I am genetically programmed to feel strongly about making a difference to my society..have I? No!...One day I will.

After all this time..., I lead a life where I still consciously or otherwise do not know what I am genetically programmed to do...or do I? I do not know if I have the guts to always follow my intuition!

There is nothing that gratifies us more than the feeling of knowing what exactly we are genetically programmed to do and follow it.
