Isms

I figured out recently about a new phenomenon- more and more people attributing what counted as genuine goodness to be just an 'ism'. Loyalism, niceism etc.
It's like saying, hey that guy is blue- not red...
Whilst its very nice to view everything very objectively without essentially attributing good-bad labels to it, its just a bit hard for me to question my lifelong beliefs this time.
I used to think, if you went out of your way to help someone, did something about it proactively, that's good- well, not quite according to our new set of assumptions. Its just that I am being a niceist. Nice!
Who knows what's more to come- walking-without-bumping-into-peopleism, smiling-when-someone-smiles-at-you-ism, jeez! Let me stick to breath-through-all-of-it-and-you-wont-die-ism...
Yeah, its me sulking, I will come in terms with it though...I believe in theory of evolution more than any of my beliefs ;)

Domains

Just back from a trip back home. It was a short one but a very relaxing one nonetheless.
Although, I couldn't meet many of my friends. Priyanka just sent me an IM saying 'Welcome back.' Ironic- I thought considering she lives in India and I am back to Jersey now, but then, so right in a way!

Its like you have two domains- one for physical presence where you 'do' everything you have to do and another more real than the physical presence, where you can 'be'.
I am not at any rush to shop, go to bank, make social visits etc in here...I can chat to my friends one to one without having to worry about nitty gritty like rice boiling on the stove, Manu being a pickle or bai needs to be paid.

What would we have done without the internet!!
