doing ok

saw a Rerun of the 98 wimbledon championships, Pete Sampras winning his 5th wimbledon..at the championship dinner afterwards , he said "I just realized i had equalled Bjorn Borgs record of 5 Wimbledons, and I thought to myself, "I am doing ok.." " in a very modest understated sort of way..

I just moved into my new apartment, it's very spacious, we started talking of buying a pool table, or playing cricket inside the house..as i lay on the bed, looking up at a high ceiling, pool view on my left, i though to myself "I am doing ok.."

sometimes its the little things that make you feel like a champ,

my own arc

haven't blogged in a long time.
summary of events :
- travelled to india, trapped in a cyclone, escaped in a train.
- read the broker, by john grisham and realized that paperbacks are fun, and nothing more
- drank a lot of wine in various places, wine is a nice afternoon alcohol.
- went to china again - the abundance of wealth and growth is astounding, trhe contrast in the countryside is stark and disturbing.
- watched hazaaron khwaishe , understood yet disagreed with the leftists.
- found a new house to move in - filled with apprehension
-most recently, had an excellent meal of red rice and chicken curry and lots of coconut filled items in kerala cuisine
- currently slightly inebriated.

sigh..these are all simple narrations of events..as if life could be described as "start, live and stop"
Everyone has epic arcs, feats of triumph, acts of glory, victories and defeats, tragedy , adversity and redemption. wish i could locate my arc. wish i could focus on some destination, this listlessnes and random diversity of actions is crushing me....need to find my arc..
