Live on the edge - or you take up too much space

Is there any other way to be, except edgy?

If I die

No, I'm not hoping to die yet....however I am traveling out of town to Kabini. I am driving. 5.5 hrs each way. Am a lone driver. Amith can't drive. I thus have the responsibility of 2 lives. Bull shit! Many more besides mine and Amith's. My mom's and all his folks.

So just by some miraculous serendipity, any of my friends read this, or this blog's discovered by some agent on the prowl, this could also turn out to the be the 'last ever written account by a writer purported for greatness, never feted, always tetchy, with a heart that demanded more, but always got less, a loser, but nevertheless the genuine goods'...(psssst! 2 of the words used therein were from M-W...recent 'words for the day'..yeah!).

So here we go again...tra la la la la la! All you folks who've bumped into my life and stayed on because the co-incidental bumping turned out to be such a mutually beneficial (ugh! what a corporate sounding term...guess it comes from writing too many brochures) association, I thank you.

For you special one, what can I say, except, you're okay, and I've stopped wishing or hoping. I truly do hope that you get who and what you want in life - boy when you do get that special someone, I'm sure I'd like to scratch her eyes out, but theek hai yaar...hum kaale hain toh kya hua dilwale hain.

For you ma... let me just say, 'you've always been the wind beneath my wings'. Without you I'd be nothing. I'd want you for my ma in every rebirth of mine. For me you truly are the One. I love you. Forgive me my trespasses and sins.

For all the rest of humanity and the world - try and live in peace - don't destroy our beautiful planet. Brotherhood of man and all that jazz! At the end of the day or night, the journey is what counts, not the destination. The destination for all is the ultimate unchangeable truth. But is death the end of the road? I'll let you know from the other world. Ha ha ah!

And hey, Sunil and Amith , guys if you read my blogs, leave your comments. It'd be your commemoration to your mad hatter friend Alice who lived in her wonderland. But the world never knew her...all they did was ask, 'So who the f%^& is Alice?'
