The eyes opened up after almost a week. Yeah!! all it can see was bright lights. the scene was so bright that the eyes struggled to keep up with them. but the eyes kept on fighting. it badly needed to see things. and finally it was able to see some swift movements around that place, which were recognized as other human beings.. there were conversations happening in that place. which came to the ears as whispers... then he was able to hear the words which were saying something like " well its in his own will to come out of this". by this time his eyes were little clear and gave him some shaky pictures. and with those pictures and sounds he deciphered that he is in a hospital and in a condition in which medicines wont work anymore and only his own will power can get him back... at that time a voice in his head started to talk....
"well... is it tough for me to get out this? no way. when i was a kid people used to say i was fearless and bold. that's because people have seen me come out of a bore well hole alive and without any tears in my eyes at the age of 5. well that was just an accident. may be something like that happened because it was not in control at that time. now the doctors say its in my hands. so why cant i? just rewind what happened in my life. there were loss of dear one's at my very young age, which i overcame by making new friends and relationships. then i had an education which was smooth. then came the work life. a part of my life which started very well. so with the start of that came a family for me. well when everything was fine in the sail the disaster struck. a hole in the boat. the company crashed and i was left alone in the streets with my family. well i was in need of doing something to save the family. decided to start up my own business with some loans and made a descent living. then what's the point in having a business if u don't get any loss in it.again struggled. by that time i was well prepared for these things. even though it was not a cake walk i was able to make through it."
the voice continued " life was not that easy for me. the ship went through many storms in this journey. but as a sailor i have always enjoyed the trip. no complaints. i have learned from life. its all part and parcel of the game. you will enjoy it if u play it fully. that's what i did. well i can still feel the pain in my heart. not the one caused by any incidents of my life but by some health problem. and here i am lying in this bed with people around me. people who want me back. i can see a pic of my grandson holding my hands and praying for me to get up. well i earned this love of people also. i have lived my life a full circle. it started off with pain and ending with pain. but in between it was a great journey. a journey which i can ever cherish. i have seen it all and i am very content with this life. do i have to come back for a better end than this? well i don't think so....................."

Hehe. Great blog man. Although, I should take up this issue with koushik. How you manage to sound happier than a freaking teletubby despite having sat between two of the greats of clinical insanity & general cynicism (me and koushik ofcourse) in college, I cant understand ! Damn it, I knew we should have been more generous with the cynicism and gone easy on the psychosis.
