A shocking revealation. A good friend of mine was hiding some thing from us from long time and he revealed it finally in his blog post. This image will make it straight forward for you guys to understand what he was hiding from us.

Yes, I was as surprised as you guys are when I came to know this truth. But, I ‘was’ happy to know that he was doing something what he loved from his childhood. He followed his force and became what he wanted to become.

But, being a guy who sits next to him through out the day at work, I wanted to see his light saber skills. I was astonished by his skills when I saw them. Later I had to accept that he is far better in coding skills than his saber skills. Well, you need to know the shocking reason.

This is ME after the exhibition of his skills.

I request you all to sign this post as a petition for him to stop being a Jedi. Yoda, if  you are reading this post. Please, leave the Jedi council, ask him, you must.

Guess you understood what I’m going to tell. I should have written this a week before, but I thought - readers of this blog would anyway be knowing all the information. But, yesterday an old teammate of mine gave me a very big shock with a mail with subject “Fw: Beware!! Aids can spread like this too - Unbelievable!!!” To add to that shock, it was forwarded to him by another old teammate of mine.

Guess what is the mail about ??? Yeah, our same old pani puri story, but instead of pani puri, it was pineapple. If you don’t know the story, here is the line up

• Kid fell sick (General news)
• Parents take him to hospital (End of the day news)
• Docs diagnosed as AIDS (Shocking news !!!)
• None else in the family has AIDS (Happy news !!!)
• Kid tells that he had pineapple (Exclusive news to Docs !!!)
• Group from Mallya Hospital (Wow, they named hospital name too) finds pineapple guy (Reporter news from crime scene !!!)
• Pineapple guy don’t know that he’s got AIDS (Yet another shocking news)
• So - Don’t eat vada pav and pani puri !!! (WTF ???? News)

I didn’t believe this even when I was in my junior college and its hard to believe that software engineers, who are 25 years old, not only believe this but mail it to a bunch of their friends with in 10minutes and they end up in mailing this again.

I’ve changed little bit and I’m not as assertive as I was couple of years before. So, I didn’t mail him back with technical details of AIDS and tell him that it doesn’t propagate through this way like I did to one of my college friends (regarding Bill Gates giving money to who-ever-forward a mail) and I actually demanded many of my friend to mail everyone in the To-list or CC-list of the mail that whatever he has mailed is “wrong or inaccurate” and to let them know the validity of the content. Some of my friends actually liked that habit and many hated it. Anyway, I’m not going to do that again unless a very close friend end-up in forwarding faltoo information.

You know these, even then as information is wealth [Pun Intended]

• AIDS doesn’t spread through Pani Puri walla as long as you eat just pani puri from him
• As one Telugu movie tells, wear a helmet whenever you fight
• Don’t try Hollywood and don’t fight strangers
• A mint with a hole can be polo but Helmet with a hole can send you to Apollo
• As Balayya[¹] tells, Hand For Hand can be hit in movies but, blood for blood can sometimes shut your life
• HIV-positive need not mean that you are community-negative
• Mosquitoes have more deadly disease to spread, Malaria kills one in every thirty seconds[²]
• HIV is slow[³]. It takes nine to ten years to become AIDS. In those ten years, some bright scientist might find a cure. But, why take risk. Trust helmet.

Gave you enough information that you already know. But, be sure that you spread it to guys who don’t know. I’m going to mail my teamie, atleast for a noble cause. Pani puri is great.

I’ll give you all I got
If that’s what you want
I’ll give you what I got and more
But just see me through and through
That’s all you got to do
But don’t you dare give dare give dare give me
Artificial Love

[Taken from Bambi - Artificial Love]

I like flowers, especially flowers with water drops on them. When ever I see them, I couldn’t stop myself from capturing them. Almost all the snaps I take are special to me. I see them again and again. While taking them, I take so much time that my friends usually get frustrated by the time I take to take a single shot. As I try to give 100% of myself to that particular shot while framing it, some times, I get decent shots like the above one.

You need not observe the picture carefully to find that the flower is artificial, but if you have to see carefully to find that those drops are not water drops. I really don’t have anything to tell anything about the camera or the shot or the mode or the focal length used to take the shot. There is something different I sense from the picture.

It’s beautiful. But, it’s fake … just like that special “someone” you met in your life. Everyone of us would have met that “someone” atleast once in our lives. That “someone” could be the person whom you’ve loved sincerely or the person whom you would have considered as your best friend or even a person from your family. If you think that you haven’t, the truth could be you haven’t sensed it or you are just one lucky person in this world. But, when you come to know that you are not a lucky person, all you would be doing is tracing through the steps written in one of my previous posts.

Everyone of us would have had some minor to major crushes or even serious loves which failed. For “you” who is reading this right now and comparing the artificiality of this flower to the artificiality of love that your “Ex” showed you … I’ve one thing to tell you.

The flower is fake just like her love
No big deal of blaming her now
The drops are fake so were your tears
Even a cyclone stops as the sky clears
You moved on for the greater future
That’s the same you would get for sure

I wrote this blog post without thinking. One random thought and a very random post. If it makes any meaning, good; otherwise sorry for wasting your time. In a nutshell, I wanted to tell you one thing - If you are a victim of artificial love, just move on. It’s everywhere.
