Amazing

amazing it is.. really.. some might disagree..

but it is..

the game of basketball..

Its one amazing piece of recreation man ever thought up!

yea, you heard it right!

I said recreation.. its a sport that ensnares your senses.. it has the basic element that we look forward in anything we do!

ask me now what we look forward to in everything..

you might be thinking now what relation there is between listening to Pink Floyd and making an extra superb micro controller and doing an out of the world fake in basktetball has is common ( yea, of course , only if you are my type and still dont know what i know will you have this qn.! )


well.. they all have this " beauty " that we look forward to!

as long as you are chained by the stream of common thoughts, as long as you are the dead fish in a river, you cannot think free.. you cannot think straight..

the whole idea behind quest for new things and unearthing the brilliant past at the same time is the search for beauty..

now one might be forced to think what beauty is..

well.. beauty lies in the eye of the beholder (yea beerholder, if that makes you happy! :P ) .. i would call anything beautiful if it can cause that tingling sensation of happiness in me.. it would have this rhythm, stability and elegance that you would long to savour and to have these traits in everything you do..

And so the three activities mentioned a while ago goes on to be in the same category, beautiful stuff!

Listen to "time" by Pink Floyd.
some lines that i personally love in it are:
"Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it’s sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but you’re older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death "

maaaaan, they make so much sense.. and then always there is Gilmour or Waters.

same goes as far as the microcontroller part goes. How beautiful it is when a little piece of nonliving thing you created thinks for itself and does what its designed for in style..

and so does an amazing fake in basketball make you happy!

And the whole point of my writing all this crap was that I played amazingly (ofcourse, according to me :D ) today !

I guess it should prove good for me, with interhostel tourney coming up soon!

Wish Me Luck!
