Colors of Life.

Its been a while, that I have had no color in my posts. How about some colors of friendship - of free will - of expression - of life

July the 13th

Today is July the 13th - 13/7. A special day! When the day dawned on me, I had no idea - how powerful this day is, and the impact it can have on me. But then, just as I was lost in my Monday blues - killing time and swatting flies ; a bolt of lightning - read enlightenment, struck me.

The date read 13/7 - One of the numbers is an unlucky number - A number which evokes fear,despair and a sense of failure or misfortune lurking around the corner.
There have been many movies or phrases depicting this number - House No.13, Friday the 13th, 13B.

And on the other hand is 7 - A number that symbolizes luck. Every Gambling den or a school fete would have a 'Lucky 7' game zone. There are seven wonders of the world, seven musical notes, seven days of the week, A number every young footballer would dream of - after Cristiano Ronaldo. God, the Bible says, created the Universe in 7 days.

What happens when these 2 days combine into one. Like the 2 sides of the coin were now on the same side or like Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. It probably signifies that good luck and bad luck just cancels each other out - Leaving no luck behind.

What does that mean? I guess, it means that whatever we do, Luck - good or bad - would not influence the actions. We are completely responsible for our actions and the failure or success of the action lies completely in the way we execute or approach it.

Sounds great isn't it? I wish every day was July the 13th - Then we'd do our jobs with complete committment without thinking about the external forces.

Chuck the luck!

A Saturday morning

Saturday - The wikipedia says this about this day.

Saturday (pronounced /ˈsætərdeɪ/ or /ˈsætərdi/ ( listen)) is the day of the week between Friday and Sunday. Saturday is considered either the sixth or seventh day of the week.


Sounds pretty plain and boring. But what the Wikipedia fails to understand is the emotion connected to this '6th day of the week'. For me - This day has always been the best day of the week. Once the Friday is done and dusted - The sleep flows into a beautiful morning called Saturday morning where clocks, alarm bells and time pieces do not exist ; Where bed linen - blankets and pillows are the dearest friends; where dreams have more wings to fly, more space in the sky ; It is the day - which when begins, all plans turn to zilch, All I 'd think of is to bask in the golden glory of this day and feel happy to have reached the end of the week.
A Saturday morning would find me spending more time stretching my arms wide, tossing around the entire perimeter of the bed, with a calm satisfied smile as if I had the password to Alibaba's cave


I do not get the same feeling about a Sunday - strange - coz, this day is a holiday too, but nothing is more special than the magic of a Saturday morning.
Jon Bon Jovi probably feels the same about Saturday - though its about a Saturday night - A saturday nonetheless.


"Someday I'll be Saturday night" - One of my favorite songs.

Hey, man Im alive Im takin each day and night at a time
Im feelin like a monday but someday Ill be saturday night

Hey, my name is jim, where did I go wrong
My lifes a bargain basement, all the good shits gone
I just cant hold a job, where do I belong
Im sleeping in my car, my dreams move on

My name is billy jean, my love was bought and sold
Im only sixteen, I feel a hundred years old
My foster daddy went, took my innocence away
The street life aint much better, but at least I get paid

And tuesday just might go my way
It cant get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, fridays aint been kind
But somehow Ill survive

Hey man Im alive Im takin each day and night at a time
Yeah Im down, but I know Ill get by
Hey hey hey hey, man gotta live my life
Like I aint got nothin but this roll of the dice
Im feelin like a monday, but someday Ill be saturday night

Now I cant say my name, and tell you where I am
I want to roll myself away, dont know if I can

I wish that I could be in some other time and place
With someone elses soul, someone elses face

Oh, tuesday just might go my way
It cant get worse than yesterday
Thursdays, fridays aint been kind
But somehow Ill survive

Hey, man Im alive Im takin each day and night at a time
Yeah Im down, but I know Ill get by
Hey hey hey hey, man gotta live my life
Im gonna pick up all the pieces and whats left of my pride
Im feelin like a monday, but someday Ill be saturday night

Saturday night here we go
Some day Ill be saturday night
Ill be back on my feet, Ill be doin alright
It may not be tomorrow baby, thats ok
I aint goin down, gonna find a way, hey hey hey

Hey man Im alive Im takin each day and night at a time
Yeah, Im down, but I know Ill get by
Hey hey hey hey, man, gotta live my life
Like I aint got nothin but this roll of the dice
Im feelin like a monday, but someday Ill be saturday night
Im feelin like a monday, but someday Ill be saturday night
Saturday night __________,all right, all right
