The "Inside" Stuff


Above: Doctors operating


A very thoughtful and pensive Quills tagged me with this one:

I am thinking all the time, so much that I can feel heat above my head :) Right now I am thinking of a holiday

I said be careful with your words, for you may have to eat them. I think someone said something very similar before me! :) Yes, you guessed it, I am a man of few words

I want..I cant think of one thing I want..is it because I have too many wants? Or is it because I am content? Right now, I just want to be on a mountain-top, breathing in the fresh air, and feel close to God

I wish people learn to make life simple, live life full and not make it complicated (especially for others!)

I miss.. I try not to think about what I miss.. I always try and strengthen myself.. I used to be a very sensitive person as a child, upset about small things and cry for everything; then life hardened me, gave me a shell, beneath which I am perhaps still the same. I do miss some of the special people who I have met in this life, so many special moments, so many joyous moments.. thats what life is all about right? Enjoy every moment..and cherish the best

I hear myself all the time. I make sure I listen to that inner voice. I read somewhere if you stop listening to your soul, thats when you begin to deviate from what God meant you to be. Infact, I remember not listening to my inner voice a couple of times, and those instances were not good. I can relate this to Snowy in Tintin: the angel and the devil trying to influence the character

I wonder what life is all about. They say we are all here for a purpose. But how many people find the purpose? Do we seek it? Or do we just leave this world without knowing anything about it?

I regret nothing in particular, and I am thankful to God for this life. I have experienced so much and lived life so full in so little time. I just pray God keeps things pretty much the same for me while I am here

I am who I am, take it or leave it. That said, I go out of the way to be accommodative to nice and genuine people I like. I am also very uncomfortable with anything that has "I" in it, I hate talking about myself, and no wonder this is a difficult tag, but yeah perhaps therapuetic like its supposed to be!

I dance when I am really happy or when I am really drunk or when I am with great company

I sing to myself

I cry a lot.. man! sometimes I wonder if somethings wrong with me. I dont cry when I am upset, but I cry when I am happy, or when someone else is upset (even in movies). I feel ashamed I have cried watching Top Gun. But hey, Goose dying, and Meg and Maverick upset was so touching right?

I am not what others want me to be

I write much better than I speak

I confuse others ..This is useful at times ;)

I need very little. I am an island.

I should remember always that life is short. Apart from living it full, I need to take care of others as much as I can. God does lie in small things. One small act of kindness, care and love, can go a long way. I should also remember to take more care of my loved ones.

I finish.. I cant remember much that I finish. I am a last minute person, always just about making it, meeting deadlines.. The only thing that I do finish is perhaps chocolates. But hey, chocolate is good for the heart the latest research said. Oh no, now they say its not. Yay, now they say it is! Doctors! Such pains they are!

This tag is open.. Take it..

silverine said...

@Anon: I agree whole 'heartedly' it is a nice picture.

silverine said...

Looking at the picture: You didnt have to open up your heart for the tag doc!!!! hmm Quills should have been more specific brrr

:P

I am thinking all the time- So do I

I said be careful with your words- I am not a woman of few words but I have learnt that words are like the proverbial bow

I want.. I just want to be on a mountain-top, breathing in the fresh air- Same here :)

I wish people learn to make life simple, live life full and not make it complicated- Absolutely!!! I dunno why people get all hot and bothered about it and make life unpleasant for themselves. I tis so easy to be at peace and happy.

I miss.. I used to be a very sensitive person as a child, upset about small things and cry for everything - I used to be too, but not anymore since I don't care what people think anymore :)

I hear myself all the time- I converse with myself in my mind.

I wonder what life is all about- I too wonder but since I am here I might as well make the best of it.

I regret nothing in particular- same here :)

I am who I am, take it or leave it - I hate people trying to change me which is why I belive in the 'live and let live' and 'agree to disagree' philosophy :)

I dance - when the music is good :)

I sing to myself- same here, actually I hum all the time and the loud singing is confined to my room :)

I cry a lot - he he :p Where have I heard that?

I am not what others want me to be- join the club and keep being that way!!!

I write much better than I speak- I can do both well according to some people :))

I confuse others- *standing applause* This I wish I could do, but I am too open a person for that.

I need very little- I have a some basic necessities :)

I should remember always that life is short- Very true

I finish- LOL I am just the opposite, dont like chocolates {mebe I will give you my share :)} am always on time and never do anything last minute unless someone else has done the organising for me :)

Too good doc, spoken from the heart, mebe when the dream girl becomes a reality, you will talk to her "in writing" since you are so good at the written word :)

Doc, is that you in action...in the pic I mean?

*silverine gives a standing applause to one of the best tags ever*

Mind Curry said...

@ anonymous - lol..thanks..but nobody fainted that day.. but i have seen a lot of people fainting during surgeries.

@ silverine - *standing applause* to the best comment ever in blogging history!

:)

so sweet of you to spend so much time here. thank you sooo much!

hmm Quills should have been more specific brrr
ROFL!! you are so hilarious!

I am thinking all the time- So do I
good good..i feel a lot better after reading your comments and knowing i am not the only one.

totally agree with you on people complicating things..even i just cant understand it at times. people seem to thrive on complications and stress!

I cry a lot - he he :p Where have I heard that?
lol..where? mmm...

its so easy to confuse others..dont worry..will tell you the tricks some time.

{mebe I will give you my share :)}
i told you i like you already na? :) thanks so much!

you will talk to her "in writing" since you are so good at the written word :)
:P
thanks so much..will keep this in mind!

excellent..you know..its like i wait until some of the special bloggers finish commenting before writing another post. and you top the list! without your lovely comments no post is complete. i am sure its the same with a lot of others too.

p.s. its me too in the action.

quills said...

Thank you for taking this up. Straight from the heart eh? Good good.

I am going into an even more thoughtful mode after reading your tag. :)Some more insights into the doc of few words, the man behind the mask..

I confuse others ...hmm..a useful skill indeed. But something I can never do. But you know, hope you can teach me too. :P

I hear myself... You know, that is something I have in common and you are absolutely right.

I wish... if only Life were simpler..I always wish for that too. I think we make life complicated for ourselves sometimes..

Good Tag MC!

@Silverine: I shall try to be more specific about my wants and needs next time, but good na..see what the good doc has revealed. ;)

Mind Curry said...

@ quills - i think bryan adams will be pleased to take this tag.

when i first wrote this post, the title was "I am..Or am I?". So there, so much for the insights :P

yes, we will do some elaborate sessions on the "confusing others" module.

but good na..see what the good doc has revealed. ;)
yes, what the docs revealed is part of the patients intestine there; glad you liked it :)

silverine said...

"yes, what the docs revealed is part of the patients intestine there; glad you liked it"

We liked the rather 'graphic' spilling of the guts doc :p

Good work Quills!!! ;)

Jiby said...

This was beautiful writing bro...i totally forgot my surroundings reading this one. Its been quite some time that blogs had that effect on me...maybe your own sky above, earth below post must have been the last time it happened.

You should write a novel some day.

quills said...

yes, what the docs revealed is part of the patients intestine there...

Hey doctorrrrr,( to quote Jayan partially at least) vayar oke thuraanu kanichu virataaaammennnnu vicharichu alle?

(Man!! I think I do a pretty neat Jayan impression..except for the voice part I suppose) :)

Yeah, I am liking it alright!! :)

shruti said...

Hi doc... really nice tag and post ..well my post also opens with the same line .." I am thinking all the time " and sometimes my head reels too... I have already done this tag hence will not repeat but the following words did create a sense of deja vu-

"I always try and strengthen myself.. I used to be a very sensitive person as a child, upset about small things and cry for everything; then life hardened me, gave me a shell, beneath which I am perhaps still the same. "

I was also a very snesitive child ..I have a photo in whicn I am sitting in a corner and crying because I thought mom didnt love me enough ...
keep posting ..we like to feel the warmth ..

alex said...

MC,
I believe that we can never find our purpose in life, because there are just too many!
Crying relieves your emotions well.
Talking to yourself is crucial too. I wouldnt have be recovering now, if i had listened to my inner voice. (But the accident was for my better.)

"I am not what others want me to be"
The most important thing to know in life is this. Once this principle is followed half our confusions and troubles fade away.

Good tag.

Viks said...

Wonderful Stuff Dude !! Both this tag, and your take.

White Forest said...

oops! that pic is painful!

Archana Bahuguna said...

Like always, you express so well...

Anand K said...

That pic is quite..... overwhelming! :P
The crying part; ahh... last time I almost went to tears was Kaazcha. Mentioned that in Alexis's take on this tag. I haven't actually *cried* in a long long time.... last time was perhaps 8 years ago. But on occasion I have felt the tears welling up...


>>I am not what others want me to be

This nugget is the one I most identify with! :)

You have a sharp wit.

Vandana Bhatia said...

Your post was narrated just like you would describe this surgery would have happened.
I am thinking, I said, I want, I wish, I miss, I hear, I wonder, regret, dance, sing,cry. Each of these aspects we all do in all the activities we get into. I enjoyed reading your post as much as you may have enjoyed writing it on :)

Alexis Leon said...

Wonderful post MC.

I miss.. I try not to think about what I miss.. I always try and strengthen myself.. I used to be a very sensitive person as a child, upset about small things and cry for everything; then life hardened me, gave me a shell, beneath which I am perhaps still the same. I do miss some of the special people who I have met in this life, so many special moments, so many joyous moments.. thats what life is all about right? Enjoy every moment..and cherish the best Ditto.

I wonder what life is all about. "Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather must recognize that it is he who is asked. In a word, each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life” - Victor Frankl (Man's Search for Meaning).

I too cried watching Top Gun. And I don't feel ashamed at all. In fact, I can polish off 2-3 hankies if the movive is good :-)

Another island! Glad to meet you.

Excellent one. And nice photograph. I expected nothing less from our resident philosopher.
