The Great People

I tweeted today.. I am surrounded by super duper of the world people. Lucky to have them in this world and have met them.



Have this Calvin in my life who is 24 and been playing the instrument for almost 2 decades. And this kids been going places

This guy who sold his car to buy a bike and who knows only to bike, blog and build businesses.

Photographers - starting from dad to all those who "HAD" to capture me posing

If dad was mentioned then the Lovely ladies of my life - cooking skills.. crafts
who redefine the laws of definite/multiple proportions.. :P

Another 2 eyed guy who had the guts to shift the highest paying job from campus to explore what he loved in a career

Buddy who changed ways to start all over again

Hunk who waited for the destiny s call - Patience needs mention here

one was spurned 2 consecutive years in bschool interview that he doesnt know wat he wants and he went on to become a gr8 photographer and this came after a biking trip to ladakh n the alikes for 6 months

And there are numerous lailas and majnoos who went to fight for love against the conventional world ( yes still its like a scene from 1980s ke Ek duje ke liye hahha )

Travel & adventure freaks & explorers - on legs, cycle, bikes,

the Himalayan saints the species who can work for 11 months and trek, meditate n merge with nature during the rest.

mind readers and psychiatrists

so many to mention, some fight for social cause, some for fight between art n a job. ( i do sometimes think art is for those who are too well settled in life - i do want to change it in the coming years )From CA to dance teacher n book writer

DJs Music mixers - all the guitarists - who loose their golden touch putting up with me.

Some who always make the atmosphere live and some who cant make us stop laughing.

The smart writers and witty bloggers, sketchers and painters - Actors and mimics.. ( cha no mime s or sculptors )

all My threads to theater

a mention to the ppl who just dont want to / cant live by the ways of society

oh the ones who freak me out - quizzers ( TRR, Adi, suzy, phew )

Last but not the least the kiddos - the epitome of innocence and brilliant fresh geniuses. and even the time pass bhasadi friends - Yes it is also an art to chill around.

Spl round for the ones who just cant do more than to care... do u need more ;)

You all never cease to inspire me

Sorry about the order of introduction of characters.!!! its just to do with the low permanence in my memory. And these are not the only ppl who were live example to what bizarre means ( Excuse to the ppl whom i have missed out :P ) sorry i dont include ppl who have excelled in the field of education.. sorry to say this is india.. i just know too many who has done it :O ( the actual reason is i am so cant relate to them :P hahha )

The common thread which connects all these people is the passion, youthfulness and voracity to seek for more out of life. Refusal to live life the easy way. And they have found what is it that kicks them in the phrase "Alive and Kicking"

And what about me.. I am better i knew all these people  :) hahha

Einstein did a research, on why some are successful and some arent.

I dont know what he concluded, but i have my own version.

As you had summarized in last paraphrase about connectivity, its just goes to say, the penultimate para of "Uncool" guys are the torchbearers.

As Human being, we always taught ourselves oh He Plays violin ? Oh great re.. Oh he went to Ladakh trip , oh awesome man.. But in the end,...Everyone is cool on what they are best at :) and world would be far better, if we are just a bit more tolerant to accept everyone :) :)

For humanity, and for your wonder blog and for all wonder people associated, greatness is not in themselves, but only in how they define their greatness :) Amen
