So you think you can tell? Heaven from Hell?

"There is light, there is the cool breeze,
It runs through my hair.
If I stand here silent,
I can almost hear the past fade away,
I am hiding my scars from the moon,
I know the end is coming soon." ---ME


Hello Again! There has been a big wake up call...An alarm that refused to switch off. But then again, I am the quintessential Scarlett O'Hara, and tomorrow is another day. Alcohol and anger is the most dangerous combination (trust me, I learnt it the hard way). It is my earnest request to all the budding/full-blown alcoholics not to mix the two. Mix Vodka and diet coke, not stupidity and drunken-ness.

The semester at Wales is coming to an end. (YES! YES! YES!....jumping up and down clapping like a clown). However, freedom comes at a price there is the dissertation and a couple of not so interesting assignments hovering over my head. *YAWN*

This is proof that I am going to be a lazy bum all my life (not that have a real problem with being so) and just float from one phase to another. Living in Wales and in a town with social degradation reaching new lows, one cannot help being influenced by the complacent lifestyle and wonder "so what if i work in a bar all my life...??"
This is what I had been fearing, slipping into oblivion..a deep and comfortable state where everything goes. I no longer know the difference between success and failure. Then there are the proponents of the theory of 'happiness and peace of mind are enough'. Given that being happy is what its all about in the end. But, what do you need to be happy? Money? Love (if it exists)? Peace? (Yours or the world's, or are they even separate?)

All ears for the answers...

Money... that's the ultimate reality! Love... it exists, but it's selfish love! Peace... well world peace is a fantasy... peace within, nope... that's pretty much a fantasy too. Unless you stop craving for money and expect to find love... inner peace is a fantasy too! :D
