“A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything.”

Friedrich Nietzsche

(German classical Scholar, Philosopher and Critic of culture, 1844-1900.)

People refrained from calling him a lunatic at times. That was how he was perceived. Way ahead of many fellow humans, his intellectual thinking and analytical reasoning knows no bounds when he is in the mood for the game. Rarely people understood his arguments, for that matter expect for a privileged few, men around him found him incorrigible....

very lean, he was always a clown for many. People rarely took him seriously. His ideas in general blended with creativity were awesome. He has an impeccable knowledge in the fields of literary, science, technology and law....vodka, wine and likes of alcohol too.....his accuracy for events on the global stage along with the relevant data cannot be doubted...People never believed him, but i always had the faith in him....

Put in the wrong stream of studies, miseries engulfed him. He rarely cared to read and cared for people around him...That was how others perceived. But he always cared for others and debated on their problems and desperately wanted to find the solutions deep in his heart. There were days when this bloody fellow skipped meals for days together, just coz he was bugged down with some beautiful technical theory or fellow human's plight...

My relation with him had been one to cherish so far......Always there whenever needed, whether to pay for my food or to play pranks or to make fun of him to get my time going....We had shared beautiful days of fun and debacles...There were times when i had to pull him out of his doomed illusioned world, where he was portrayed as mediocre, useless and totally pathetic....Those were the times, that brought us close. I always believed him for his words and wished, he finds the right door.

During our campus placements, he was the one who coached us with his mock drills for various GD and interviews....There were days when we had roamed from tanjore to trichy with just 50 bucks in pocket...we always somehow found to keep us busy and happy...

All good things comes to he who waits.

Yes he had to wait for 6 long years to enter his dream world...to experience his world in reality....My friend though graduated with an engineering degree and found a job to keep him going, his desire to vanquish his portrait built in the minds of many, pestered him to persuaded the course of his desire....

He waited and with patience found the right one...IIT Kharagpur. Topped the entrace exams and cleared the PI and GD. When he called me a fortnight back to share his joy, my joy knew no bounds.....Pride had no limits..

That was a special experience, knowing your faith to be right, your prayers coming true, finding your best pal in the right place......

Beginning of his ascent.....Wishing Airavathan the best of luck.....Waiting to see him reach the epitome.
