Shift ..delete!!!!

Like many of you out there even I am searching for the magic eraser which will forever erase those memories away. (Guess we have to wait much longer for such an invention)Those ones which we don’t need.. those memories which always make you feel like less of a person. ..We just don’t need them. And at times we get ruled over totally by our emotions and reason won’t be even near your vicinity. ..times when you see that willful slaughter of promises given and dreams dreamt of ..

I too ask this question many a time.. why do we punish ourselves for things which we have not done. But some people are moulded this way… you and me just forgive no matter what the damage has been.. forgetting never happens though.. Guess I am yet to master the art of ‘moving on’ be it be anything… manufacturing defect I say..lol

Wish things were that easy as it sounds like.. one click ..’shift’ and then the ‘delete’ button and you are fine. Guess it doesn’t happen like that always. ..but you know there is no harm in trying.. if at all now after all these years I am showing symptoms of improvement it is because of some real thoughtful some ones in my life.. those people who were always there no matter what.. can’t begin to thank them for all that they have done for me.. for listening without judging..for knowing without asking.. for accepting me just the way I am..

We all live out short little life in a trillion different ways.. why not make it worthwhile..rather than waiting for something in vain…a day lost is lost..it is never going to come back to you.. I am almost getting my PhD …have been researching in the literature of waiting for a long time now.. would not want anyone else to feel that way.. let that one doctorate be patented..all rights reserved..lol

Shaan is an amazingly talented singer.. this one song for all my people out there …seriously I am improving…and this is sign number one..lol.. and the biggest realisation of my life ' Some how a man's heart is either exceeding the speed limit, or getting parked in the wrong place..'

“As the days seem to go on endlessly, I await the 'someday' I've always been promised. That 'someday' when things are supposed to be perfect... the 'someday' when I find my place in this unforgiving world…”

words sometimes stay handicapped when it comes to describe emotions... a "shift delete" is a good concept.. but wat is life without all those memories.. v need both th good and bad ones. its th thorns that make th rose even more beautiful..
value of 'good' depends upon the quality of 'bad' one has experienced.. so.. there is no happiness without sorrow.. just like there is no day without night!!!
so,, every one has to learn to "move on" with the available light and relations and emotions!!
so cheer up!!!
take off the "shift delete " from the key board!!!

It aint ‘theirs’, for them to stay
Life is yours, Live it today!
Seasons they sure come & go
It’s to make u rise & not to bow!

Hi,

Erasing the memories?? Not everyone would want to do that really, sweet or sour every memory has its impression in life. Just when you get hit you know how to tackle that, that is what life is all about. It should move on "Good moments give us happiness, bad moments give us experience" don't we need both of them in life?? I always feel that the ones who try to escape and try forgetting the past are afraid to live, worried about the things they lost and even more worried about the future that holds. Good that God hasn't really give us that "Shift-Delete" option. "For everything in life to be perfect we should know the imperfect, imperfect is seen by experience"
Oh you definitely have many competitors on your research subject ;), lets see. And wish your 'someday' hits on you soon. :)

Keep Blogging!
All the best!

Wow...That was amazing! You don't want anyone else to suffer the way you did....is it? Thoughtful and Moving!!

Here is a poem and mini-post dedicated to you for your Empathy with the same theme.

"Shift..Start..Restore!!!!":

Start Understanding,
The worst and best are bed Fellows.

Start Star Gazing,
The brightest and darkest are Minnows.

Start Dreaming,
They grow slowly from a Dwarf to a Giant.

Start being a source of Motivation,
The coal becomes live embers on contact.

Start the Whirlpool of Inspiration,
Struggling souls are washed ashore on the gold coast.

Start believing in Miracles,
They teach you the value of Patience.

Start Observing what made the Marvels,
They instruct you on the worth of perseverance.

Start living a life of Simplicity,
Plain living and high thinking are the results of a lifetime’s labor.

Start to be in the fullness of the Whole,
Then this Whole Wide World Would merely be a Hole.

Start the sweetest of Melodies,
Amidst the crackling Cacophonies.

Start to play the finest of Tunes,
Where hearing ears have had None.

Start to sing the elevating Songs,
And in times of need they would Boomerang.

Start being a Torch Bearer,
Over the lonely paths and on the unexplored Frontiers.

Start a Resolution,
Follow through to its Fruition.

Start a Revolution against the Authority,
The Corrupts should be Uprooted from the Society.

Start turning the pages of History,
And you would find there is no mystery.

Start a Chain Reaction,
And see how it reaches Completion.

Start Writing,
The Pulitzer and Noble Prize can be kept Waiting.

Start Swimming,
Sometimes with the tide and sometimes against Losing.

Start beaming with Astonishment,
Let the worried ones get their Nourishment.

Start Fighting,
And your stand up stance would shake everyone’s Findings.

Start Winning,
The Flash on people’s eyes is your Lightning.

Start Cleaning,
The Dust Mites shall not take their place with Diamonds.

Start Running,
Away from the Cunning.

Start wondering about Creation,
And the Creator’s Unerring Function.

Start thinking, how it is in the Microcosm ?
And the Secret unfolds deeper in the world of Atoms.

Start imagining, how big is the Macrocosm ?
Expand as a consciousness and travel with the Spasm.

Start working Hard,
A good night’s sleep would be the Reward.

Start painting your Masterpieces,
And let them adorn the Museums.

Start the long forgotten practice of Hand Writing,
You would remember the cursive letters badly Quarreling.

Start the habit of listening to Moving Speeches,
They would trigger the passion of Expression.

Start walking on the Rain,
To come out from the Drain.

Start Sauntering between the Cloud Covers,
The Sunlight Shine would remove the mental Fears.

Start a Corporation,
Let it become a huge Conglomeration.

Start Seeking The Top Slots,
Your contemporaries would never be the Hot Shots.

Start giving free Education,
Your schools and students would prove your Contribution.

Start constructing ‘No-Cost’ Temples of Healing,
Your award would be in the form of Pleased Hearts.

Start riding on Storms,
You will float on the fearless feathers of after-Calm.

Start a Journey,
Travel to meet Peace.

Start a Pilgrimage,
And you will meet God Face To Face.

Start an Adventure,
And let the mind Capture.

Start drawing Caricatures,
The Serious people would become Comical Characters.

Start learning a new Language,
And that would leave a legacy on your old Age.

Start being a Leader,
A Crowd is always there to Follow.

Start to know the art of self Defense,
Else an angry mob would Swallow.

Start to plant Saplings,
They would be companions to your Offspring.

Start to help Weaklings,
For they are not Fortune’s Minions.

Start admiring the rain bearing Clouds,
For they are on an impossible Mission.

Start making a new Rule,
Let your light be the Guide.

Start breaking the Cliches,
Let Mountains be the Footsteps.

Start a Campaign,
Death for a Cause is better than Disease.

Start a Quest,
Never give up until you Slake your Thirst.

Start a Conquest,
Let not the Jackals rule the Roost.

Start being a Visionary,
For the poor and its Misery.

Start a Mission,
And include in it other people’s Ambition.

Start being a Panacea,
For the ones who have no Idea.

Start giving shape to your Fantasies,
For they cannot always be Fancies.

Start firing your Imagination,
Let the thought wisps illumine the Conflagration.

Start a Rebellion,
And do away with the Stereotypical Notion.

Start Sacrificing,
And you will feel the Joy Of Dedication.

Start Polishing,
The hearts that need Washing.

Start Electrifying,
And the Electrons be kept Pulsating.

Start Flying,
The Skies would be Fleeing.

Start seeking Knowledge,
And liberate yourself from the self Bondage.
