When you don’t blog regularly for a long time, you often tend to run short of topics to blog on when you resume. Perhaps that’s what happened to me these days….But today I decided, I shall blog on whatever my mind’s occupied with this very moment.
I got up this morning with a headache (caused by a disgusting nightmare)! May be I should blog about nightmares….or better still about dreams…I fail to understand why we dream…Researches say its our chain of thoughts in the subconscious minds which erupt as dreams…Parapsychologists claim its our future/past that manifests into reality in the dreams….I frankly have never analyzed them….but just that these thoughts usually stay with me the entire day and keep haunting me(Oh yes the good ones too!)…
So may be my blog friends could elaborate on these bizarre things….that they call DREAMs!
Another thing that caught my mind this morning was a picture on the front page of the newspaper…It bore profile pictures of the two most talked about men of the moment – Mr McCain and Mr Obama….But what I was most intrigued by was a teardrop rolling down Obama’s cheek…..for his personal loss!
This I thought was unfair – bringing someone’s personal moments before public eye! Whatever a person’s celebrity status is, he deserves some amount of privacy .The man has lost someone dear….why should that be brought to public notice? For publicity? For sympathy or for defamation? Definitely not fair….But that’s not how everyone thinks I guess….perhaps that’s why the media’s shrieking about every possible pro and con – private or public to get to where it matters!
I am going to sign off for the time being and get back to work! But you readers…give this a thought! Adios!

glad i chanced upon ur blog 2...it sure has some grt posts...do keep writing and keep visiting
Time has gone when the public falls for politicians who show their petty sentiments...
but still, i Obama's case one shouldn't forget the influence perhaps his grandma had upon his mind when he grew up dreaming his Great American Dream!
we just look into ourselves, we come to know, Priyanka
and to lose that support the day before the historical elections -- it has to bring tears if he is a human being -- public or private doesn't matter much -- i feel..
and even other wise, from personal expereince..putting ones' worries and fears and sorrows before the public makes one stronger ...
not for every other matter, though ;-)

I understand what you mean...
I absolutely get why Obama showed his feelings in public...he s human after all!what i despise is the media trying to manipulate that for worldly gains...that I feel is unfair!

Good that u hv started blogging again and as always this one 2 is so nice and thought provoking...
Maybe we all wished if we could be a celebrity someday but what I c all arnd thers nothin to celebrate being one.. u r always under the spotlight not even getting a momemt 4 urself to cherish waht u hav got.. not a momemnt to talk 2 urslf.. not a moment to shed a drop...w/o the media wathing u.. thats really is a big price tag.!
Hi Priyanka!
leave the menace of media to their pretty or petty hell -- its all about money, honey :)
if you need to understand how media can corrupt you, and make you start thinking the way they waant-- read Farenheit 451(451f is temp at which paper catches fire) by an American author Ray Bradbury...written in late 1950s
but he never knew an other menace -- the eletronic media - would be ruling the world of 'literates' -- so he perhaps limited it to paper and books by using a suggestive title.
anyway, it was nice to interact on that topic...
thanks Priyanka
