Just One Of Those Days...

Begin today for a better tomorrow and a memorable yesterday!

Once again, my name is Inayat. I was born in Delhi on the 4th day of the eleventh month.
Currently, I live in New York. I dream more than I fulfill.
I'm passionate about music, literature and life!
The whole idea is to be happy, right?

My blog was dedicated to Anthropology all this while. I'm going to start talking about other stuff now.

There are different kinds of people in the world. Everybody wants to make it big.
We have the same wants, more or less:
Love
Big house in a fancy neighborhood
Fancy Car
Gadgets
Happiness
More love
Leisure
Success
More happiness
Peace
Knowledge
Pleasure
Satisfaction

I might have missed a few, but you get the idea!
My question is, how many of us make it? What does it take to make it big?
Hard-work?
Destiny?
Serendipity?
Knowledge?
Intuition?
Appearance?
Talent?
Greed?
Passion?

I don't know what it is. I don't even know if I'll get there.
But I do know that we all aspire for greatness.
People fascinate me. I like to know their story. Despite being extremely talkative, I do listen to other people talk. And most importantly, I always remember them and their stories.
The emotional aspect of life has he hooked. While most of my peers have tremendous faith in technology and think it's going to drive the world, I beg to differ.
We created technology! So technically, it shouldn't be driving us. We should run it.

We live in a day and age, where we have limitless options and little respect. We have much to fulfill and no time.
Here's hoping that my generation will perhaps value emotions over money, people over gadgets and priorities over options :)
