Wandering of a lonely heart

She kept walking on the dark, abandoned street...nothing could have stopped her today...she had had enough...all her life, she was neglected and hated by everyone around her...

only because I am black, I am unlucky? My neighbours do not wish to see my face...I have been an orphan all my life, no idea about my parents whatsoever, maybe its my colour the reason that they deserted me...hated and feared by everyone all the time, I have been eating food if there was some left-over thrown inside the dustbin dumped at the end of the street making sure nobody spots me...this has to end and it has to end today. It can't go on like this forever.....

but she had decided she would not cry tonight, not anymore...her crying days were over...she will face this world like everyone...she won’t hide away from people...she looked up in the sky, it was a cloud-less and moon-less clear sky...wind was blowing like a trumpet , shaking the trees and making the leaves sing too...she had relinquished the fear of anything...life had taught her not to be scared of anything anymore...life is the best teacher afterall they say....she was looking very beautiful tonight...the night had accepted her like a mother, making her look like itself...




she was unaware when she had hit the main road.Today was the day of her resurrection. She was humming her favourite tune, the only tune she had known all her life...she was in her own world, roaming free for the first time...luckily there was nobody on the road too...maybe its past midnight, she thought...she smiled to herself...she was so happy to be roaming around freely that she did not notice the loud noise approaching her...a car came from behind in a full speed and hit her...it was so fast that the driver did not even realise that he had banged the car into somebody and without stopping, he zoomed away...

she flew high in the air and fell on the ground few feet away with a low thud...the pain was cumbersome and unbearable...she knew her end was almost there...her heart screamed out in pain, cursing god for giving her such a horrible life...and now she is gonna die in such a manner that nobody will know about it...she will not get a proper burial, but she will be the food for the stray animals and birds; she dreaded the scene...she tried to scream, but the only word came out of here mouth was

meow...

If you people are puuling your hair after reading this maybe its time for a reality check......but before about the story.....I had nothing to write and was getting bored so just thought of it and came up with this in 15 mins time. Though it didn't shape up as the way I would have liked it to but I just posted whatever came to my mind......:D

Bullet time(*)

The other day I was watching this really nice TV series, Hustle(this has nothing to do with this article) and it got me thinking about the "bullet time". In the series it is used as an occasional tool
by the bunch of con-players to actually explain what's going on to the viewers.

Anyways, Wiki defines bullet time as "a digitally enhanced simulation of variable speed (i.e.slow motion,time lapse etc…) photography characterized both by its extreme transformation of time and space". That is everything around you just sort of stops or moves at a pace far lesser than you do. For geeks, this means "one second" in others reality means a lot more time than that in your reality.Talk about making the most of one second. I was just wondering if this sort of thing isn't limited to just movies fantasy etc and maybe possible in our real lives too. I mean we are all having a busy day with hardly any time to even catch our breath, by the use of bullet time we would all be fine without much troubles that way. And ya, what about the night before exams??Everybody would love it. Of course it would be banned in sports but elsewhere it would be quite handy. When the day is not quite up to your liking you can always think about where it is going wrong without wasting any time and would correct it almost instantly. What a revelation it is going to cause to this world!!!
But when I look at it the other way round I think only a loser, a pure-sure loser would opt for such a thing to make some difference in his life. Nobody who is willing to fight it out would prefer such a thing in his daily lifestyle. This sure acts like a shortcut to make your life easy but at the same time this may cut your life as well. Counting on the bad points there are many of them and better off if they aren't stated. But ya it might end up making us more handicapped as opposed to the freedom we have got. Gosh, why doesn't anyone makes a movie on it anyway???

P.S. I wrote this thing as a part of blabbering as I had nothing to do during these holidays and was itching to get on with something and keep myself busy. And anyways bullet time would never be for those who are already lazy enough to do anything.
