Quarter Life Crisis

This is one of the forwards i got from one of my close friends and liked it very much, that i thought it would be great to put it here for others..


BEING IN TWENTIES - SOMETHING

It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are many things about yourself that you didn't know and may not like.
You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now.

You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met, and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you don't recognize is that they are realizing that too, and aren't really cold, catty, mean or insincere, but that they are as confused as you.
You look at your job... and it is not even close to what you thought you would be doing, or maybe you are looking for a job and realizing that you are going to have to start at the bottom and that scares you.
Your opinions have gotten stronger. You see what others are doing and find yourself judging more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and are constantly adding things to your list of what is acceptable and what isn't. One minute, you are insecure and then the next, secure.
You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life, but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away, and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward.
You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you. Or you lie in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough that you want to get to know better. Or maybe you love someone but love someone else too and cannot figure out why you're doing this because
you know that you aren't a bad person. One night stands and random hook ups start to look cheap. Getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic. You go through the same emotions and questions over and over, and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision. You worry about loans, money, the future and making a life for yourself... and while winning the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a contender!
What you may not realize is that every one reading this relates to it. We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out. Send this to your twenty-something friends... maybe it will help someone feel like they aren't alone in their state of confusion...
We call it the "Quarter-life Crisis."

Kissa Kiss ka

Well I know that you would be wondering why I the world I’m writing on this issue of kiss, no I haven’t got my first kiss as yet from any girl cause I’m not having any girlfriend as of now ;). Kiss can be of many forms, the kiss given by small kids, or the kiss given by parents to their kids showing affection or the first kiss given by a girl/guy to his/ her partner. Actually there are many styles of kissing, French, Indian, check a peek Hmm affection it is but it can be of many types.

Now what is the kissa I’m talking about Is what happened few months ago. I had exams in the afternoon and was just having a final glance at the books while sitting in my balcony and suddenly a car comes and stands in front of my house gate, this car was one of the pretty luxurious one’s, the guy sitting in the drivers seat was also well dressed. Ab hua ye ki I had a curiosity as to who is this person and that too stopping in front of my house, there was no traffic on the road and there was no reason I could figure out to have a stop gap, so I stood up and while I was seeing the guy in the drivers seat pulled a women (or girl I’m not too sure) towards him and engrossed himself into a French kiss :O which lasted for a minute I guess, after which he promptly moved to his destination, Keeping me dumbstruck. Did someone say that there is very less privacy in Mumbai, well seemed so….
