Left, Right and Straight!!!

Take a left…Take a right..no no just go straight!! We come across such situations almost every time we travel. It sounds so funny that I relate everything to anything at times or I just love to see it that way.


At school, we had this weird exercise of matching the left section to the right by drawing an arrow or a line. If the book said all that you marked were correct, you get the full marks or else your teacher looks down upon you as a piece of crap who could not even match simple things. Wait…what about your friends? Ha I remember I always had a good fortune of being around with the ones who did well in their exams and soon after we got our marks they had a grin on their face…”you are so stupid man…this is just this way…its so simple”.

My teacher was right, my books were right and my friends were right too. But I had this question, why was I wrong in matching those small things? Or was I really wrong? A bat matches to a boy playing with it, the same bat matches to a ball with which it is being played, the same freaking bat matches a playground in which it is being used and the same god damn bat matches another boy who has interchanged it from the first!!! I was wrong because the book said so, my teacher and friends were right because again the book said so. Few steps relate to everything we do and how we presume it...We were taught that a line was the border, beyond which there is something bad and unknown. All those who crossed those lines were bad and all who did not are good people like us???

But who really defined it that way? No disrespect to them but when I look from their point of view I feel they must have seen the consequences themselves and were trying to help others by telling them that it was difficult to travel on a path which 95% of people dint and it was tough. But again the interpretation comes down to an individual who likes what he is doing. I guess we change our course to get away from something difficult or see ourselves happy or at times see the ones we love happy!!!

Take a left
Take a right
Now go straight
What do you see? Grave yard!!!

Lets try it again…

Take a right
Take a left
Now go straight
What do you see? Dead end!!!

Lets try it again…

Go straight
Take a left
Take a left
Take a left
What do you see? Point where I started!!!

Lets try it again

Take a right
Take a left
Take a left
Take a right
What do you feel? I could have come straight!!!

Lets try it again

Take a left
Take a left
Go straight
Take a right
How is it now? I am on the wrong way!!!

"I am so confused…
You confused me
I don’t have aims
You molded it with your directions"

Somewhere, somehow…few paths are lost in finding the right direction or allowing your directions to be shown by others. You commit mistakes we come back and we try to start a new journey. You know what is right and what is left in you. You are the best judge of your heart, mind and your situation. If you are right then you are right because you have your reasons. If you are wrong then you know it better than anyone else. May be judging the path by consequences will not fetch you your life!!!

My Life...What the hell are rules??

I wanna jump up and down
I wanna run round and round
I wanna raise singing loud
I wanna drop dancing down

Views will not be defined
Fun will not be confined
Freedom will have a meaning
I will have a new feeling

I wanna fly high and high
I wanna fall feeling light
I wanna swim breathing slow
I wanna play cheating right

Raising Sun will be loved
Sleeping Moon will be adored
Mornings will be realized more
Chirping birds will be heard

I wanna fight for a toy
I wanna sleep like a kid
I wanna lie for a chocolate
I wanna stay with my pets

Sky will be beautiful
Stars can be counted
Rains will be enjoyed
Time will be sensed

I wanna pray for no reason
I wanna feel every season
I wanna sit without a thought
I wanna live forgetting all the rules!!!!
