Introductions ?

The past one year in the usual Earth time has been rough to my presence here is probably an overstatement. Out of the 29 or so Earth years that I have spent here , the last few have been remarkably pointless. Except for probably that one time when I actually scared the shit out of myself and realised that no matter how many times I actually scare it out, it's probably going to build up in my system again, looking for escape points, only to be regenerated again. There really is no end to this shit business I tell you.

Anyways, I will try to be serious about this, 'coz I know that this is probably the most serious thing I have ever attempted in this lifetime of mine on Earth. Although, it's actually quite hard to be serious about the thing that I want to talk about, without losing the perspective and hence the plot of what I wanna talk about. It's all quite pointless, you see....or as is more likely, you don't see it ...yet.

How many times have you had an out-of-body experience ? How many times have you tried to bypass the logical circuits of your brain, (that have been by-the-way, designed and shaped by your bodily experiences in this world) and just Think for a bit ? If you are one of those freaking lucky bastards( my apologies for the profanity and if you can trace your origins right down to the first humanoid that ever walked the earth and are absolutely certain that in the last few thousand years that humans have been in existence, all your genetic foreparents reproduced under the strict social idiom of marriage - I hereby take back my words) who have actually experienced it at some point of time or another and actually remember it to this day and time, well....then clap your hands in the air right now and join me in this celebration of meaninglessness.

Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce myself - I Am. And believe me ...I find immense solace in the fact that you Are as well. The world can be a very lonely place if there was no you and I was left here all by myself. The name needed to denote my time here in this world is Pramesh. I don't exactly know what to do with it, although I know of quite a few people who spend their lives trying to make a name for themselves...what for ...I'm not quite sure of that yet. In my case, my immediate parents in a fit of brilliance decide to name me as Pramesh and I'm stuck with it eversince. You can call me names as well if you like.. I'll be just as clueless about what to do with them as well, unless one of them sticks, in which case I shall be ethically bound to list it as one of my names ( as if they say anything about me ), whenever I introduce myself again to anyone else. Oh...I didn't catch your name there ...what is it again ?
