You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know. Rene Daumal ...... Tis why i climb. Not very high mountains. Sometimes just the hills. Tis why I travel too and love doing it. Because the art of conducting myself in the confines of my office space and my home, changes every time i walk, climb and take a few steps away from them. Been a journalist for almost three years now.. Am not quite sure if I'm cut out for it though.. I have fought to be distinct. Fought to remain intelligent in a crowd where its so easy to become retarded. But there is a sudden urge to leave everything behind and devote time to learning, discovering, exploring.. After coming up close and personal with the realities of hardcore news journalism... it does not look all that pretty. Oh its very respectable and all. but the real test is to keep it looking that way ...I still work with entertainment.. But my scope has widened since I last visited this page -- I work with travelogues, music videos, entertainment features.. there is a lot more to entertainment journalism than covering who did whom! My professor back in college still disapproves I'm sure and would accuse me of being an active part of the dumbing down of the media phenomenon. But I dont think so. I still maintain that we bring the relief factor. The laughs, the nostalgia, the everyday things that we read and forget but like bringing up over a drink or some coffee. Its never life shattering.. just needed once in a while. What i love about what i'm doing is it keep me close to the visual medium. Err.... That in complicated words would translate as having a say in the way a subject is conceptualised shot, edited and presented on a platter. I love beautiful things, places, stories, music.. I love to look and listen to beauty and that is exactly what i like giving people. In short.. i love telling stories I love ad films.. Someday perhaps would love to make them.. tell a story in those few seconds.. Of late I have started reading about design and completely enjoy it.. My colleagues hate the fact that i love exploring all kinds of music, they are subjected to my experiments all the time.. I also enjoy working closely with the social sector.. A pet project of ours, the Bombay Hub is on its way to becoming a reality. who would have ever thought.. now if you want to know more about it.. ping me .. I will tell you more. I adore the visual medium. My camera is one of my closest companions. My friends think I am too absent minded to make it big. I might go deep into the jungles, get great pics and in excitement forget to bring the camera along. Sad to say.. their claims are not completely unfounded. Outdoors come high on my list of interests and mountaineering is a passion. I have completed my Basic Course in the same from the institute in Manali. The day I have the time and the money and time permitting, I would want to do a course in skiing as well. I have a sneaky suspicion that I might not learn to not fall flat on my face. Balancing problems... Nepal happened in 2005... year before last it was a trip to the Zanskar valley in Ladakh..(pics posted) After that.. let me see. been to stockholm, then goa, then hrishikesh. Last year landed up in Benares, Lucknow, Rajasthan.. Love the folk music of rajasthan.. which is why landed up there. Then Sri Lanka.. a few month back.. Leh, Ladakh, then Manali and a peak called Friendship.. Anyway given a choice, all I would do is buy myself a real good SLR and just travel, anywhere and all. And climb mountains! Maybe become of mountain photographer!!! Is there something like that? I dislike making decisions. A very typical trait of most Librans. If I manage to make these decisions, there are few times when I have not had doubts about them. Like right now.. i cannot decide if i have said enough or there is scope for more.. I'M sure there is.. people love hearing their own voice..I do. Well I know when to shut up and its time now.. Cheers!
