My Mood Series

For many days now, I have been drawing moods on my office desk white board. The picture that I draw usually depicts how I am feeling on that particular day. The idea is simple....to vent out my mind's status to the people around me even when the vocal medium fails me. And thus....My Mood Series was born.

I started doing it way back in November of 2009, when my life at work was becoming monotonous. The drawing gave me a mood swing...and I liked it. I initially started mailing these pictures to a few of my friends....and they loved it. Slowly, the mailing circle grew big, and today, I thought that I should finally Blog it. :-)

Currently I am in the Season 2 of My Mood Series. I stopped drawing for a few months because there was a lot of work pressure. But then, I realized that there will always be pressure, and that doesn't mean I should stop doing what I love, isn't it? ;-)

These images that you see are some of the compilations from Season 1. I hope you like them. And I hope it solves the purpose for which it was created - to bring a smile on your face. :-)

Courage and Honor!


Courage is a hard thing to figure. You can have courage based on a dumb idea or a mistake, but you are not supposed to question adults or your coach or your teacher, for that matter. Because they make the rules - the guidelines. Maybe they know what's best or maybe they don't. It all depends on who they really are and where they come from. Didn't atleast the six hundred guys think of giving up and joining with the other side? I mean, The Valley Of Death! That's pretty salty stuff.

That's why courage is tricky. Should you always do what others tell you to do? Sometimes you might not even know why you do something. I mean, any fool can have courage. But honour, that's the real reason you do something or you don't. Its who you are and maybe who you want to be. If you die trying for something important, then you have both honour and courage, and that's pretty good.

I think that's what the writer of 'The charge of Light Brigade' was trying to say, - that you should hope for courage and try for honour, and maybe even pray that the people telling you what to do have some too.

The Drunk Driver

Just read this somewhere, and so thought that I should share:

"I went to a party Mom,
I remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom,
So I drank soda instead.

I really felt proud inside, Mom,
The way you said I would.
I didn't drink and drive, Mom,
Even though the others said I should.

I know I did the right thing, Mom,
I know you are always right.
Now the party is finally ending, Mom,
As everyone is driving out of sight.

As I got into my car, Mom,
I knew I'd get home in one piece.
Because of the way you raised me, Mom,
So responsible and sweet..

I started to drive away, Mom,
But as I pulled out into the road,
The other car didn't see me, Mom,
And hit me like a load.

As I lay there on the pavement, Mom,
I hear the policeman say,
"The other guy is drunk," Mom,
And now I'm the one who will pay.

I'm lying here dying, Mom....
I wish you'd get here soon.
How could this happen to me, Mom?
My life just burst like a balloon.

There is blood all around me, Mom,
And most of it is mine.
I hear the medic say, Mom,
I'll die in a short time.

I just wanted to tell you, Mom,
I swear I didn't drink.
It was the others, Mom.
The others, who didn't think.

He was probably at the same party, Mom,
Just as I.
The only difference is, he drank, Mom,
And I will die.

Why do people drink, Mom?
It can ruin your whole life.
I'm feeling sharp pains now, Mom,
Pains just like a knife.

The guy who hit me is walking, Mom,
And I don't think it's fair.
I'm lying here dying, Mom,
And all he can do is stare.

Tell my brother not to cry, Mom.
Tell Daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven, Mom,
Put "GOOD BOY " on my grave.

Someone should have told him, Mom,
Not to drink and drive.
If only they had told him, Mom,
I would still be alive.

My breath is getting shorter, Mom.
I'm getting very scared.
Please don't cry for me, Mom.
When I needed you, you were always there.

I have one last question, Mom.
Before I say good bye.
I didn't drink and drive, Mom,
So why am I the one to die?"
