Choices, Questions and Answers.



Life is this infinite loop of choices, questions and answers.
Choices which you take define you, make you what you are and distinguish you from others. Others here refers to the other inhabitants of this world who also might have chosen that same path which you chose at one point or are choosing right now. Sometimes choices are made under pressure and we keep giving excuses like "I didn't have a choice" but all of us need to understand that even if you didn't have a choice, you did make one eventually. You chose the path which you thought is the 'most convenient  at that very point. So, now if you've made that choice then take responsibility for it. One of my friends told me this and I tell this to everyone and to myself that never 'regret'. Never ever should you be crying over the choices you made which might've played a role in get  you to wherever you are.
Questions are infine themselves. If we go into that chain of thought we can create a whole new world of it, of questions and mazes and puzzles which will keep us occupied throughout or whole life. The whole purpose of our existence is a very big question. If we fall into this loop we either just might keep exploring all our lives and become oblivious to all the other things that happen. The weather, the time, day or night, nothing would matter. Only one thing would exist and look clear and real and that would be questions. Questions which you ask to yourself, to the world, to science, to god, to man, to the creator, to the genetics, to circumstances, to choices, to the air, the wind, the water and life. These questions will entangle you into the cobwebs of other questions which would erupt as soon as you would move deeper into the process of finding the answers to those questions.
So your life would might just make you end up with all of those great people who by asking questions have made a name for themselves. The list starts from Adam who asked himself weather to eat the apple or not and ate it making a choice after asking a question to Newton who questioned the falling of an apple and made one of the most significant discoveries in human history. All of these great people asked questions and made choices, choices to learn and choices to explore are there sitting tight in their hall of fame. They are immortal in one sense that their name still goes on without any effort, they still live after being released from the chains of mortal life.
Answers are what you find on your journey and I can't elaborate on that because the journey is yours and so are the questions, so how can I know the answers?
All I have to say is that think, think before you make a choice, before you ask a question,before you know an answer. Know where your choices would lead you, if its a gamble, let it be but know that it is and it might take you anywhere it wants to. As they say about questions, "Ask the right questions and you just might find enlightenment." and about answers, "Ask questions only when you want to know the answers, the answers which you can handle. The answers you want to handle." Because one thing that I have realised in my life is that no one talks about a failures but success stories are what make the news. You never know how many have failed with the answer, asking the wrong questions, making the wrong choices, finding the wrong answers.
Towards the end, its your choice. Either to find answers to your questions or move in the same straight line which leads you one destination where every man reaches at the end. Death. Without any questions, without any answers and with choices of others.

The Startup Syndrome (Internet)

Disclaimer: This article is not to discourage or malign the ongoing internet based companies or startups. It is an opinion.  'Startup' should actually be the word of this decade. Since the start of this millenia we have seen a new buzz in the youth allover, 'Startup'. With companies ready to invest in ideas which might revolutionize the world and get them some good returns. But we've experienced the biggest wave of these after the current decade started. With the success of ongoing startups as inspiration, more and more individuals and group decided to try their hand at starting something of their own.  "Who wants to work under a boss, when you can be your own boss?" this was what I always heard from some budding entrepreneurs. Some are doing it for the drive, some for the passion, some for the adrenaline rush and some are just doing it because they want to discover. Now out of all of these startups a huge majority is inclined towards one

If one mask is torn off, then let everyone be unmasked.

S&P recently released it ‘Ratings Direct’ on India with a title –“ Will India Be The First BRIC Fallen Angel? ” The S&P which thinks of itself as the ‘Hand of God’ and it is quite true. The rating agencies like S&P, Moody’s and Fitch ( a.k.a ‘The Big Three’) control the investors sentiment and manipulate it. The investors look up to these agencies because these are considered to be most ‘reliable’ rating agencies in the  world and because of this faith ‘The Big Three’ have sustained over the years. Now is a time where everyone needs a little guidance. No one knows what is going to happen. It is too uncertain for an investor to invest anywhere. With Spain/Italy and of course Greece all in a big ‘Financial Fiasco’ (which might eventually engulf the whole of Europe), the US economy downgrading and the magical futuristic ‘Yuan’ being released from the clutches of the Dragon, the world economics is uncertain.   In such dark times the investors search for a knight

Today, I cannot believe in anything

Today, I cannot believe in anything. I feel like I am doublechecking everything I hear from multiple sources to support or to refute any opinion or act. I was born in '94 so I didn't always have the internet at my disposal, I saw it flourish and today I am partially afraid of it. It reminds me of the various books and articles I have read on dystopian societies, which I always thought were great, but fiction. Today, I think I was wrong. I live in a world where news channels show what drives ratings so that more people view the news channels and hence they can sell advertising spots for a higher price. Today I see people sharing their views and getting attacked. Today, I feel disturbed, afraid and confused. In classic dystopian fiction, there is generally an authoritarian government. Fortunately, we're not there (yet). Not in all parts of the world. There would be people watching you everywhere, everytime and the government will have the power to sniff you out anytime t
