The circle
Its been long since i've last blogged. Many things happened meanwhile, some of which are going to make a mark in the rest of my life. This makes me wonder how i have spent the past two decades on this world. So many memories to be cherished, many other faults to be ever repented on. I think everyone cherishes & repents in a more or less similar manner. But it is intriguing to observe that everyone thinks that what they have done is something extra-ordinary & also that it has the potential to stand out from others. We could claim that this kind of perspective arises from the archaic assertion- Every human is unique by himself. Having said that, the similarity which it beholds - Everyone have their unique characterestics, which means that everyone has a common ground on uniqueness being the basic similarity. We could very well observe that this whole analysis started from one point - 'Everyone is same', extended as a line - 'Each is unique' and finally met the origin point by forming a complete circle - 'The uniqueness of each make them common'.

Have you read,'Atlas Shrugged"?
'My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being, with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life, with productive achievement as his noblest activity, and reason as his only absolute."
