behind pin stripes

The moon looks like it's drowning.

There are some days when words fail to come naturally. Or when everything you say sounds stupid. Like today.
There are some days where you smile a lot and don't know what exactly you are smiling about,
Or maybe you know exactly what you are feeling, but show the opposite.

There's this thing in Hinduism about Jnana yoga (the way of knowledge) that talks about the correction of false identification to reach your 'true self'. ( yes that's one of the few things one semester of South Asian studies has taught me).And I was just wondering how many people have actually found their 'true self'? Like 'What is me?'

For those people with religion, self is probably submerged in God. Like 'One's essential being is Being itself'.

ok. existentialist.crap.shall.cease.now.

Next year's In Parliament will be something to watch. There is more to everyone than meets the eye. Why can't the world be simpler, ever?

"Complicated is good" says a particular history teacher with the unnerving habit of threatening students with electrocution by imaginary cattle prods.
