Life

What is life? What is destiny? Are we a cosmic mistake? Are we so very special, or are we nothing more than chemical reactions? Why does life go on? And to where? What is this all so consuming love? Perhaps nothing more than nature’s way of ensuring our species survival. Perhaps nature made a mistake by giving us means not only to survive but to thrive. For though one of her sons lives, others perish. Or may be this for the best as we can ensure our survival even if earth were to be doomed someday.
Life will go on. Things which are so important to us will not be even considered when mankind looks back. For it does not matter to humanity that when a person’s heart was broken his life was shattered. Life cannot be lived for the future for nothing lies in the future nor does it lie in the past it exists only now. If we lived now and only now it would not matter if we are remembered or not for we lived.

I am invincible

I always wanted to be able to cook. My mothers a great cook but she never realized I wanted to cook even though I told her so many times. I know a lot of things driving, I am doing engineering, I can deal with people very well and I am very independent sort of fellow. So whenever I saw some one cooking I felt kind of stupid and felt admiration for the guy who has the skill to cook.
Well enough was enough, I entered the kitchen and tried to cook myself an omelet, well it’s not much but it is a start. I got the ingredients ready and unfortunately broke the egg shell and put the insides on pan even before the oil got heated. The egg was in liquid state for a long time. I finally ended up making a scrambled egg out of it and it was delicious. (Too bad I couldn’t find cheese or it would have been better)
Anyway, I then even washed the dishes if my household helper or anyone would have seen me they would have been ashamed and wouldn’t have let me do it, but I loved it. It felt like breaking free, breaking a taboo and I felt invincible- I can do anything.
I am searching for some sausage recipes now…..
