2008...2008...supposed to be a lucky year for me...i want to believe in luck...in cats'eyes and gemstones and god...sometimes i feel like i should ...but no...i have been able to understand through logic that god is either
a) powerless, or
b) bad
let me show you :
why do we pray to god? because we believe that he is all powerful. so, either god is all powerful...or he is not.
now, let us assume that he is. then all thing happening in this world are caused by him. that means he is bad...because otherwise he would not let so many bad things happen... bush wouldn't be president, john lennon wouldn't have been murdered, hitler wouldn't have been born...so why believe in him?
now, let us assume he is not all powerful...then why pray to him in the first place?
so you can't believe in luck, nor god, nor gemstones, and last of all not in zodiacs because everyday every morning paper makes a different forecast for the same zodiac...
so the only thing worth believing in is.... you....
so that will be my new year resolution...believing in me...but whenever i step out into the front garden and smell in the chill in the january air i forget when ahmed shah abdali invaded india or in what kind of soil cotton cultivation flourishes... i start believing in march...the month when it'll all be over and i will be out on my cycle with my friends for day-outings, the only care in my head being - if i do not get ninety percent maybe i won't get into as good a school as i may want and maybe i might not get the ipod classic next december.. but now the only thing i want is a big hug and to watch the animated version of 101 dalmations and decorate my room with purple bouginvillea that grows on the fence (which is a perfectly feasible idea except bougainvillea has thorns and i might get a cut on the right hand which will decrease my speed of writing)...totally confused me.. :)
happy new year to me because the only person who has read this and will ever read it is me.
