My birthday falls on 20th August..each year!1
I am a simple simon from India,in a city formed by the confluence of 7 small islands collectively called Bombay!2
My life currently is not so bad and I am not so either..anyway thats for others to decide.3
I live a life which seeks to nurture peace in all forms and nothing else.4
I would like to live this same life again next time around too,a little bit rich perhaps...as I would like to donate more!5
I wish to live till the ripe old age of forty and no more..thats the result after forty.6
Old age is a curse.I would like a BMW for my own sake in my new life.7
It's superb swerving wheels coming to a halt just under the porch.8
I want to remain independent in my own world..no one to care for..no one to return the care..a being so uninhabited away from the material world with a joyous satisfaction within entwirled.9
I wish to roam Nature's storehouses..along the banks of the brimming river..swim swim and just keep on swimming...watch the sunset astride on the sand dunes.10
I would like to get up early in the morning take my Lab and climb the hill yonder at a brisk pace..the motivation for the brisk pace a temple..a sanctum sanctorum atop the hill...pray to the Almighty..and sit within its serenity...feel the soft wind caress me entirely...and watch the Gulmohar trees afire..red balls of fire all around..the picture is so wonderful...pet my Lab..play with him..11
Listen to my favourite music..watch my favourite movies...I would like to do all this and yes never give in to smoking and drinking...I hope12
Never to utter an expletive unless the pent up frustration warrants one..13
I would like to control my ire a lot more...in short a perfect human being....bereft of company...bereft of anyone near..bereft of any fear..bereft of the so called sophistication..never would use fork and spoon...rather use my hands...the sweetness of the washed hand getting mixed with the food..14
Reading Tom Sawyer..Oliver Twist...Dick Whittington and his cat...Phantom..Asterix..Tintin..watching Alec Guinness in Bridge on the River Kwai...Peter O Toole and Alec Guinness in Lawrence of Arabia...watching Richard Attenborough in Miracle on 34th Street..with my legs on a patio..peanuts in my hand..tea next to me...ooh!15
I would just love this place where peace resides....serenity becalms..loneliness abounds..16

It sould like a wonderful place. Thank you for sharing so much of your dreams and the beauty you have within you. God Bless you. Sandy
