Back After 4 Damn Months?!!

by Sarosh Waiz on October 21, 2009 in Random with No comments

Hey Guys,

Finally after 4 months, I am reviving my digital notebook yet AGAIN… I know its really stupid to do that, and I have no real excuses apart from the fact that I had been up to several things lately. Though I know I’ve just lost it now, cause I have not been writing anything here lately, but that does not mean I have been hibernating all that time.

Have made pretty decent progress in all that time, and following is a list to update you guys with whatever I have been doing:

Had been working on launching PakMediaBlog. Well to be honest, this was the main reason that took up majority of my time and I couldn’t get back here to writing about whatever I have been up to. It is a media blog for Pakistan (my country), where I am happy to have several contributors who write about topics related to Marketing, Advertising, Media as well as a lot of random issues. Its growing and getting noticed further, which is encouraging for me. If you wish to check it out please click here!
I’ve also been lucky to get a start to a teaching career. People who knew me from always could never have thought I could speak in public, but this is transition guys … I’m glad I’m over my biggest fear and have moved on.. FINALLY! Yes.. If you would have asked me 4 months ago what are my weaknesses… the only thing I felt I was weak in was public speaking and presentations. I’m also glad to get a good creative bunch of students both in the summer semester as well as the fall semester, which makes the sessions more interesting. Will keep you posted on the progress.
I’ve also been up to launching a few more websites, as I have been learning more and more about how dot com business work out. Although they are still in the pipeline, but will be out soon.
I had also been working on the concept of “brand blogging,” but the problem is that none of the marketing teams in this country (Pakistan) understand the true essence of blogging. I’m not going to tell you the full details of what has been happening .. but for GOD’s sake blogging cannot be planted .. and PUHLEEASEEEEEE.. can you please maintain the difference between blogging and SPAMMING? Its just LAME .. and no one likes it!! ..

Well that’s more or less about what has been happening at my end lately. And all of this does not mean I am disconnected with my first love. No I’m not talking about a ‘hot chick’ here, I’m talking about Arsenal FC.. a team which is just plain amazing (shoo ManU & Chelsea fans!) … I had been criticizing them during the end of the last season .. because it hurts to see them lose.. but .. Wenger is the man as always .. and he has put together a good team.. I just hope this team keeps on going as it is .. they have given us a GREAT start ..

Au Revoir!

Interesting quote that I found. It relates to my last post …

War or the Battle?

Its been a while since I thought of writing about my feelings … infact I believe that its been a little more than a while.. but ofcourse that doesnt mean that I havent been hurt all along the time I decided to stay quiet..

Coming back to today’s objective of writing.. I still have a BIG question mark .. when I try to think … why does life has to rip you off all the time for the faults that you dont actually have..? Why do we have to take the shit that we dont even create… I agree to the fact that life is an unfair battlefield in which we have to fight as individuals… and in this unfair battlefield its up to us as individuals whether we want to take the ethical or the unethical route to win the small battles that we fight everyday … but then … what is in it for the people who want to take the ethical route?? because eventually people preferring the unethical ways of winning the battle seem to get all the recognition..!!! but … still i believe that the final decider of who wins and who doesnt would depend upon who wins the FINAL WAR!! Some of you might think that war is a harsh word to replace life… but think of it logically… arent we really are in a battlefield? we make strategies for our life… we work around to achieve objectives… and we feel pride in achieving success… !! What is success to you? the word itself can have various meanings depending in which context we take it.. to some people success might mean to achieve something that they always wanted to … but to a majority of the people … success is to be better then their peers… these people take success … as a preferred choice to be better then other indivuals they compete against in this battlefield… they can even go in unethical ways to do anything … literally anything to be the better ones and preferred ones… cause the hunger and thirst of becoming better makes them .. want more… and makes them fight with anyine they could… and even though they call it a war or not… I’ll call it a war … its a cold war… where people love to back stab you.. and smile infront of your damn faces… this is the true picture of the world my friend.. this is how it goes…

Inspite of all this.. I won’t change and go on unethical ways to win the battle… cause to me… small battles are temporary … i dont care whoever wins these battles… because I want to win the WAR!!.. and to all my friends who are on the ethical side of it… yes its tempting to go on the unethical side of things … but trust me … thats only short term .. so stick to your own views… cause thats what is going to win you the War!!

I know it hurts … it hurts to even think about trusting people cause you have a habit of trusting them … but when the same people who you trusted … broke your trust .. and betrayed you .. thats when things go blue .. not because you really cared for the ones who broke your trust … but because you think why the hell did i trust them? … but thats part of life… and its not your fault … cause you trusted them … its them who would realize it sometime later when their trust would be broken similarly … they can win the battles again … we need to heal ourselves and go on … until we reach our final destination .. .. cause thats what we want…

Signing out with the hope of staying alive … and trying to start loving my existence again …

Regards,

The Change

Why does everything seems so weird? Why am I being so unnatural? What is going wrong? Why are there butterflies in my stomach? Is everthing meant to be how it is? What is happening to me? What am I trying to hide? What am I trying to fabricate myself? Was I the same since ever? Where am I going? I dont know! I’m just confused… I can’t say what is happening to me!

Maybe I am transforming into someone I used to be! But I don’t want to be someone who suffered so much… Maybe I fabricate my actual image of what I am… or maybe have I transformed into a completely different being! I was never so dark! I was never so dull! I was never aggressive! I was never hot tempered! I was never anyone who, ever wanted to be bad! I just dont know what has happened to me. Maybe the bad things that I faced, led me to become completely different, not because I wanted to be that way. But because, I was scared of of getting hurt! I was scared whenever I thought of becoming neglected! And then maybe I decided to neglect everyone my ownself…

I dont know whether it was a right decision. But what could I have done. Its just the weird thinking process that I have. I hold it responsible for whoever I am. I am not someone who is not thankful to God of whatever he possesses. I am very thankful, and would always be. And I am not hungry or greedy for somethings that people usually run for. I just want to achieve something that no common man has. And I know I can do it! But not until I reshape myself completely. I often see things going strangely for me, but I have to be someone who accepts them as they are. I accept my mistakes as well. I know at times things mainly go wrong coz of a person’s own mishaps.

It was today, the 27th day of January of the year 2006, that someone unintentionally made me realize where I stand. I am extremely thankful to that person for showing me my image in the mirror and breaking it for me. That person might not even know what that has done to me. But from today … I start … the process of Re-transforming myself, my image, my thinking, and … my fate!

Signing out …
the old … Sarosh Waiz!
