26 years of existence on this planet today...Have probably lived very peacefully so far courtesy friends and family...Thank you all...
Now,starts the hard part....The next 36 years(Average life expectancy of an Indian male is 62) will involve(fortunately/unfortunately-depends on how you look at it) jobbing,changing jobs,trying to get some direction,settling down,marriage,kids,their education,their despising you for the lack of time spent with them because of your intense urge to succeed in your career(bah!!),etc..

For now..Metallica-"Nothing else matters"

So close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

never opened myself this way
life is ours, we live it our way
all these words I don't just say
and nothing else matters

trust I seek and I find in you
every day for us something new
open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

so close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know

never opened myself this way
life is ours, we live it our way
all these words I don't just say

trust I seek and I find in you
every day for us something new
open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they say
never cared for games they play
never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
and I know

so close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
no nothing else matters

Interesting pics these...Are they proof of the increasingly racist attitudes in the coalition forces in I-RAQ ??? or is it another ploy by the resistance forces to topple the applecart ??Allegations left,right & centre...As Oscar Wilde's memorable quote goes..."The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple...."
