Pearl Jam - Jeremy

I am totally in love with this song, don't know the exact reason. But it touches the deepest thought one can have. They say, pearl jam wrote this song, after reading a news about a boy who shot himself in front of his classmates. One of the way I look at this song is that, I look for improvements, in everything I see around me. Give it a listen. Its a live performance here. You can look for the original video on YouTube. That video really stirred some minds. Here it is...





A change is in act

Well, from this month, February, i m moving on with my professional life with a new company. I am excited, motivated, hungry for success, and sad for not being able to work with my teammates from the previous company. Its all mixed feelings. We were the best team I ever worked with.

But, at the same time, being in my nature now, i don't look back at my past. Just keep the helpful experiences with me. Everything else goes in the black hole. 

I am looking forward to a wonderful year. With lots and lots of opportunities. Regarding self-improvement, outlook on life, helping others, and of course enjoying this tiny life.

The lessons I have learnt are priceless. Something that you can never learn from books. 

I am planning to keep this blog updated. But since last month was really keeping me on toes, I couldn't do so. Sorry readers.

So see you around.

Peace!

Pearl Jam - Wishlist

Now this song is really closely attached to me. It gives me vision; It reminds me of my dreams. It reminds me of those time when i used to be sad. It reminds of courage, that i found right within myself. It reminds me of all those aspirations that I wanna keep following. It just charges me up. Check it out. Do read the lyrics.



The Lyrics:

"Wishlist" by "Pearl Jam"

I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice but somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the grounds
For 50 million hands upraised and open toward the sky

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me
I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon shining off a Camaro's hood

I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on
I wish I was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down

I wish I was a radio song, the one that you turned up
I wish...
I wish...

A new year, A new resolution

Here we are in another brand new year. Feels like a fresh start is waiting for us. It’s a nice time, to put together your "new" resolution. Its always a good idea, to put behind whatever happened in the past. Because, hey, that’s the fact, you can't do anything and I mean anything about it. You can’t change it.

Being a positive thinker, having my sight set ahead, one part of my new resolution is forget/forgive what happened in the past. And move on. There are enough challenges ahead as compared to the challenge of keep diving in the past. 

Past is only for one thing: To learn something from.

So, the new year is here. Better brace ourselves, for another tough year keeping in mind the global economic recession or whatever. :) But we are bigger than that. Have better things to take care of.

Start exercising, improve your diets, plan some more improvements. Change yourself in a better way. Establish achievable goals. Make them your targets. And yes, don’t forget to add the ingredients called will power and discipline. Without them, resolution will go down the drain. :)

You can always add up the things from your previous resolution. It wont hurt anything. Just be more hungry about your targets this time. And i mean genuinely hungry.

Whatever you plan and hope to achieve, good luck. And yes, one more point I would like to add in my list and would want you guys to add, that is "Be Happy".

Good luck to all, for the year ahead.

Peace.

Eagles - Long road out of eden

This is one of the tracks, that used to give me goose bumps. It has some kind of depth, that i could never figure out. Have a listen to it.




A piece from the song's lyrics

"Silent stars blinking in the blackness of an endless sky
Cold silver satellites, ghostly caravans passing by
Galaxies unfolding, new worlds being born
Pilgrims and prodigals creeping toward the dawn
But it's a long road out of eden"
