now i am thinking is it 'deicisin made' or should i take things i my own hands (literally) and re write

Ignorant me

I was telling my colleagues yesterday how I don't know the name of the vice president of our country or any other country for that matter as it just doesn't interest me. One of them quickly rattled of the name in his bid to educate me. But I proceeded to inform them that this was something which just doesn't interest me or catch my imagination. And having known me now for more than a couple of months and my ignorance on a vast variety of subjects they asked me then what did.

While I stumbled my way out of there rather un-intelligently stating that people I know and how their lives evolve did, I knew what I was talking about but decided to word it better.

So what interests me is not the external environment and how that evolves but the internal environment of a person- the human mind- and how that works. How different people react to the same stimuli, what makes up those differences.

The exact words of the song . The music, the obvious and subtle emotions interest me more than the band name and credentials. The painting and what it conveys statically more than artist and his background. Second guessing my best friends thoughts, completing people's sentences, reading my dog's mind as opposed to knowing the vice president's name.

born lucky

i count myself amongst the lucky people in the world.
there have been no windfall gains in my life. neither can i account for any major incident as a stroke of luck.
then what makes me feel lucky.
i believe fate is on my side. through a string of moments that make up life.
i feel lucky when

i see a car pull out to make a perfect parking spot for me in the chaotic market place
i make it thru the red light just in time
i switch on the radio to hear a long lost favourite song
i make it home in time to catch my favourite TV show
i win my family version of KBC
i plead and beg but manage tickets for a bollywood blockbuster, first day, first show (third actually), 10 mins before the show

i feel lucky cause these things happen more often than not
i feel lucky knowing that fate will enable me to make the most of today!
