You can move from a group to another group - any group you want. Every group has a "persona" just like we have one in product management and all of those personas are equally interesting and boring depending on what you already know. To me it all seems boring and noisy and lip-service after a point. They look interesting from outside, they are all the same from inside. So depending on what one likes or wants, they can become that to join the club. What if I do not like what the clubs offer from inside but find them interesting from outside? What if I do not even want to know anymore clubs because they are all the same for me? What if nothing impresses me any more? I knew this in 2018? Why am I taking such a long route for what I already know?
"This miracle of me is mine to own and keep, and mine to guard, and mine to use, and mine to kneel before...The fortune of my spirit is not to be blown into coins of brass and flung to the winds as alms for the poor of spirit." -- Ayn Rand

Natural Principles
If the world around us is hell bent on doing things against every possible natural principle, what are we to do?
Everyday when I drive to work, I listen to the radio. And almost everyday once, I note the shallowness and materialistic approach to everything that is ever said on it. Lyrics of songs, any advertisement, any kind of short radio caller game, any jingle, even simple one liner news, gossip - everything reeks of a boring, brain dead society that thrives on only cheap thrills.
Where are the natural principles being discussed? There are only examples of things against the natural principles and they are so successful in the world today that it seems practically foolish to not to align to them. Natural principles as mentioned in the book are Self Awareness, Conscience, Independent Will and Creative Imagination.
Does the law of farm work here as well? If it does then it is very scary because we are building a society that will surely collapse under it's own weight of fabricated lie. All inputs to this society is junk. Absolute junk.

And so the most awaited baby news arrived to every household in India. Via twitter and via Media channels of all sorts. The ultimate result of Bachchan bloodline and world's most Beautiful woman's union. Media and Astrologers have gone berserk.
Not that I am particularly in love with either Ash or the Bachchans. But I am sitting here wondering - why. Why the hell is everybody interested to an extent that it makes us look stupid. And then it struck me, just as it did during William and Kate's wedding.
Wedding and Babies are the ultimate crowd-pullers. It's what makes the world go on and on, literally.
But for now, I am already feeling compassion for the unborn progeny. To be born in this world already comes with a package called Living and this one has big ribbons of expectations tied around! Baby, Ask Dad :-)
