Total tp...

For the past few days am racking my brain as to what to write about.

Went through all my previous blogs and trust me am baffled that how in the world did I write all those serious things.

You write the best when you have got nothing else to do (meaning you are all time bored with nothing constructive to do) or when writing is the only medium to vent out your charged emotions.

Off coz the blogs that I have written to do away with negative feelings are the ones that actually elude me.

So where was I, yup what’s up with me?

Well nothing much, just adapting to new changes in my life, doing time pass, basically having a jolly good time.

Not that this is any different from my usual days but yes the change that’s going on now is a good change for a change; because as I said before I hate changes but that’s the only thing that is constant.

Recently a close friend of mine gifted me a special book by the name The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini.

It’s simple but a powerful story of journey of two people as different as you can get yet bonded by a bond which goes beyond the bond of blood.

The language is at its simplest form but the words provoke you to think beyond what is implied.

Subtlety at its best; that’s the best way I can put it.

On one hand you have got Amir who has got everything that a materialistic world can provide him with and you have Hassan, poverty slapped onto his face yet has got everything.

But some how Amir is the one you can relate with and Hassan some one whom you can idolize.

The story begins with these two people sharing a curious bond with no name, set in the time when Afghanistan was obscured from the world map because of its normality.

Through this book you get to know a beautiful world which once existed in Afghan before it was ravaged by one and all.

It makes you realize what we have lost due to our human errors.

The pulsating culture, the pride, the exquisite cuisine, the scenic beauty, the action packed kite running etc that existed in Afghan once upon time has been beautifully put down.

Between all these intrinsic details you have got our lead pair living a life at its innocent best.

The Kite Runner is indeed a wonderful novel. And considering that it's Hosseini's debut, it's a marvellous effort.
