So much to talk about

Thr are days as i must have mentioned before when u have so much to talk about that u feel that you need more than a blog and more than afew minutes to write about them. Yesterday was one such day. The only reason why i did not put anything yesterday itself was that at 5 in the morning, after dancing for 5 whole hours and then taking a guy back to his room after he had had more than his usual quota of drinks, i had no energy left to even think about logging in and writing something.

A very dear friend of mine took me to a temple yesterday. No big deal...I am one of those ppl who go to temples on a regular basis. Now this temple i went to was really located in such a small corner of the city that we actually wondered who had discovered that such a temple even existed. And then it was really small. Why this friend took me was because she had kept a small mannat and on its finishing she wanted to come and take 108 rounds of the idol. Why u may ask. This will happen in case u r not familier with the way indian society is run. Total faith in God and all his doings and undoings is such that even things which are explained by normal contemorary science are sometimes attributed to Him. But we are MBA's (me and my friend), so why do we believe in all this and actually feel that in case we ask him for something, he is the one who is going to give it to us? Not that i am in any way lowering his place or trying to dispute that he does not exist or even trying to lay a claim about his presence. This is supposed to be a very median statement not meant to mean or convey anything. I just felt sitting their and waiting for her to finish her rounds, as to why this was happening. Is it because we are not confident of what we can achieve on our own? Or is it because we need someone to put all our mistakes on? Or probably to have someone with us...because man is a social animal and all our lonely ordeals on this planet make us want to have someone around...so why not have God who will be present everywhere and we can talk to him and walk with him and listen to him at any time that we feel lost in this big bad world?

If that is the case then as soon as the above things are taken care of, will we lose our faith in the existence and hand of god?

I dunno...all that i know is that if their is God, then i would prefer to have him on my side...
