I just see things around me and get amazed. Pick a day and start observing things around you, all the things you did, all the things you used, all the things you saw, all the things you wanted to do but could not do, should not do, all the things other people around you did, looking at people, just random people around you at any time and imagining what they are thinking, you are driving on the road; pick any car and look at the person driving and think what he is thinking, where they are going, or just look up at the Sky, see a bird and how quickly its flying pass by, where it is going, why in such a hurry, everything is exciting to think about provided you are not sad otherwise everything looks the same or at least doest not look exciting. And, if you really want to be confused then imagine you are moving with the time because the clock is moving, sure enough, air is blowing, so things around you are moving, sun is moving, earth is moving, everything is moving, you feel it or not. So if you could feel it for even a moment, its a scary amusement ride.
It is an amazing coincidence that every time I put the car keys in my pocket and then have bags or other stuff in my hands and if I need the keys, I free up my one hand and reach out to the pocket to get the keys out and there you go, the keys are not in that pocket, it is always the other pocket. And then you shift all the stuff to your other hand and then reach out and get the keys. It happened not once or twice but so may times that even when i was trying to test this it happened. Could it be that our brain does not keep very instant small details handy for recall within few minutes. Because I am sure that if we stand there for few minutes and start remembering which pocket, which hand, which side, we could then guess correctly. Or this could just merely be bad luck. happening all the time.

Another year approaches in few days. This time its called turn of the decade as the new 2010s will start. The time moves so fast that you dont get a chance to even stop, think back what you did last year or years before and make plans for the new one. Just like a tidal wave with a new name 2010 it will hit many. Sometime it feels like you have seen this moment before, like last year, same time same feelings, maybe or may be not. Some days that appears special are also confusing. New Year is one of them.

Your past is your kid's future. Spend your time wisely and nicely as you will be seeing the replay sometime in your life and it is not always the greatest feeling watching your kids doing similar to what you probably have done several years ago. No complaints and no questions just a shock. God sure is the best justice and you know in your heart when certain things happens that why they happened and why they happened the way they happened.

Often I hear the phrase, sky is the limit. I wonder what it really means. Either that there actually is a limit or one just say that you are unlimited because sky is far away at unlimited distance. It has often been said along with what one can achieve or one can do in life. While growing up, going to school and then college, everyone is given this lesson that if you work hard and do good in your studies and become a professional then once you have attained the education and your equipped with the necessary experience then 'sky is the limit' to what you can do. Alas, we forget something which is so important and that is the fact that 'time in limited'. You may reach the skies if you were given unlimited time but that is not the case. So what you can achieve in life and what you can do is bound by 'time'. And time by no means a simple factor in the equation, it is a killer. The reason its a killer because a person dies when the time expires. So the game of life no wonder has unlimited levels and unlimited fruits and bounties and whatever you can collect when you are equipped with the right tools, time expires. I then wonder where can you use the phrase 'sky is the limit' when its actually not even a right phrase at least not from the perspective of humans. Its a demoralizing goal which can never be achieved and thus showing you the realities of life.

Time does not stop for anyone, anywhere. Most of us grow old every single second that pass. Only the few lucky ones grow while growing older. We have to waste few seconds or minutes of our precious life to stop and think where we are. Are we growing or are we just growing old. These few minutes of rethinking could be vital for our future path. We could choose to continue to go straight heading the same direction as we have been and face the surprises of life like a game of luck or we could choose our path and look ahead of us to plan, like a video game where you could see the map ahead of you to decide either you are going to make a turn or just slow down. The problem is that once the game of life starts, it does not stop until the game is over. It is hard for most of us to plan out the minute by minute details therefore we could just look at our days in full and see if we have moved forward every single day of our life or we have just passed another day not knowing what was it all about and what were we suppose to do. When the time pushed us through a day, we end up not growing a inch to face the challenges we must face, either we have planned out or either its a surprise.
