Leavin' on a jetplane...

I had this song in a Aerosmith album downloaded about three odd months ago... heard it yesterday after a long time & suddenly felt a very strong bonding with this song... Can't understand why, but then I didn't decide to waste time on thinking about the reason... just decided to feel it fully... without making myself busy to figure out why... then it just occured to me... how often do I do the same in life? As soon as something happens, I try to look at the reason(s) behind it.... & often times it has happened that i've gone past the 'feeling' without even noticing it... I think its important to be able to reason out stuff... but isn't it also important to enjoy the very feeling because, as they say every thing happens for a reason.... so, isn't it possible that sometimes things just happen for us to feel them, rather than wasting our time trying to find & locate the reason behind it? Its not being irresponsible or anything like that... its sometimes just bein a normal human being.... I may have been missing this point for long enough... maybe its time to notice what all went unnoticed untill today....

The Fountainhead...

I had started reading this book more than a month ago. I've been reading it in parts, bits & pieces. But its been an amazing read so far. The protagonist Howard Roark is a strong willed & indepent in his thinking and profession which is architecture. The way he approaches everything in the world is unbelievebly strong & strange for all the people who are burdened by their past prejudices & who refuse to see or think outside what they know, or rather they think they know. Everybody thinks in the way thet best can & still unable to comprehend his passion for architecture & his purity of designs. I've just read it to halfway by now, but i can surely say that it has made me think seriously & perhaps also aggressively towards a few good things in life. Lets see...
