Sometimes I just like to do things that you would not expect from me. When I was little younger I started painting canvases. I struggled but I made my way to two beautiful oil paintings with the help of my sister. In the end it was a pleasurable experience and I learned a lot. There is always so much to learn. Learning how to paint was not only learning painting. Every new job undertaken gives a new perspective to a lot of things in life. My first painting was dusktime seashore. That helped me overcome this fear of dusk (I dont know if they have a word for it - duskophobia?) I had ever since.
I have housed a lean frame for around quarter century years on planet earth. For which I never complained, to the extent I liked it. I have had enough of friends and family saying every now and then - 'You are growing skinnier! Eat something'. So last month went I met nutritionist and started doing weights. Most difficult part of this exercise is maintaining a complimentary diet. Vegetarians always have the protein problem. So if you are looking for protein-atious veg foods I have a lot of suggestions right now.
I never played a musical instrument in my life. Closest I got was when we used to goof around our uncles piano as little kids. After hitting quarter century age Im learning to play an obscure instrument called Didgeridoo. It is fun! It is simple plain bamboo from the tree. What I like most is the simplicity about this instrument. It is nothing but one big column taken right from the tree. Like a pipe. But as Da Vinci says - 'Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication'.
This summer at least once I tried playing two different sports. Ultimate frisbee and Softball. Both are games endemic to US. I liked softball much more compared to frisbee. Partly because I fared much better at it than catching/throwing a disc plate. (It is a difficult kind of physics they never taught in m school!) And partly because it is one of the few American games in which no bodily-contact is necessitated.
So here I am making choices which would have never defined first quarter century of my life. I guess there are more things to come.
If you are wondering whats the answer to the question I asked earlier, well I don't know either. I'm on lookout. Till than I will keep going.
