Destiny and Peace

Pre-Script - Just random 4 lines scribbled in 5 minutes. 

Gazing at the boring pixels on the screen
I contemplate the life which lacks any sheen
People talk about Destiny or changing the timelines
All I care about is inner and outer peace for my lifetime

Pointless..

Sometimes I feel that there is no point in living this life..
On the flip side there is no point dying either..
Death happens only once where as life can be experienced daily..
May be that is why we choose to live even if it is pointless..

First blog from Android

I've always used mobile more like a pda than a phone. Upon buying an android phone it just got better for me. Nowadays I use it like a mini computer to check my emails, chat, sometimes even a vpn.
Just installed the blogger app from google and hence this post. :)

Ciao..
