I was in a Graveyard with Dead one’s.
There are some curious example to support this process, BOB MARLEY the who adopted the worst case living standards smoking weeds, drinking, women and singing what he likes, and adopting a weird ideology “rastafarism” and most importantly a nomadic life.
I read about STEVE JOBS life where in a special part of his career before the development of the APPLE company , he has come to INDIA learned about buddhism and adopted it to his life and literally became a buddhist monk, and after that he explored a different path involved in system’s development and worked on it and sexually… unlike what he studied and what other’s usually do dosen’t inspire him. so he became GAY.
Of course, CHE-GUVERA the person whose life always bothers me where he started his career as a doctor, how he inspired to the socialistic ideologies and most importantly how he devised himself to help people.
The most important lesson that has to be learned from all these people is “THEY LIVED AS THEY LIKE”. They didn’t design their life, they don’t plan, did nothing, they are free flow explorers and if you look at the success stories of most of the people, most of them didn’t plan their life. They didn’t plan like settle in life have wife and kids and enjoy a permanent life.
I would call all the above people as THE MINIMALISTS who have freedom of living their life. In other words they dont depend on materials, the nomadic life that leads to necessity and obviously the necessity leads to innovation thus proved the word “NECESSITY IS THE MOTHER OF INVENTION”.
Taking these people as a role model is nothing wrong so I don’t like to stay in family, or love someone be in a relationship or bound to family duties. Let me not constraint myself, so I decided to move away think at a distant point. Wide angle vision to explore places and meet new people and learn from them.
Today I met a guy called “Mr.VENKATRAMAN” a garden cleaner in the BRITISH CEMETERY , a cemetery cleaner???… oh please yeah but frankly speaking he was earning the same amount of INR rupees as most of the beginning trainee software engineers would do. For the cemetery cleaner he was earning in such a way that his first son was doing the BE final year and the second son was joined in the arts college and they’re been paid without any educational loans.
Yeah,… guys.. He was paid by the british government not the Indian government. 🙂 This place is in the middle of the city “NANDAMBAKKAM” But trust me this place is like no one notices in their busy schedule. The British government wants this cemetery as the memorial of the second and first world war combat soldiers who were died at the different parts of the world from different regime of the british colonisation.
Here are some pics. This place was well maintained and finely done. Now this cemetery is getting a good life because of the Viscomm students coming for the photo shoot and film making seriously this place will be like some good lawn cemetery that they show in hollywood films. such a nice place to view and enjoy.
But enjoying at a cemetery yeah what to do?… as I said like the people above they have done something that they like, at first those people dont know what they liked thats why Che guvera studied medicine, bob marley was begging and Mr.jobs was training to become as buddhist monk… When they dont know what they liked they choose to travel and learn things about different people.
The lesson that I learnt from this travel is many things that british pays for Indians still today either in BPO or in development or in gardening.. According to me Mr.venkatraman and service oriented commpany people were not two different people… ofcourse what they do defers.
