I dont know what is ees about Calvin n hobbes that i am absolutely bowled over by it.I recently started reading and cant wait to finish the whole collection..
Ees it calvin's innocence?ees it his perpetualy strong reationship with his stuffed tiger-toy whom he percieves as alive and his best buddy:hobbes?Or ees it his clever,bright and imaginitive ideas?Absurdity?Or the way he lives in his own world and ees so happy with that?The way he expresses hi-funda opinions but cant really prepare a 5 minute report and asks his not-so-loved class buddy Susie derkins to do it for him?The cuteness?The profundity of his conversations with many other characters?G.R.O.S.S????i could jus keep guessing and would never settle for just one reason..
The deep seated philosophy that the comic exudes beats me.I have missed out on so much for so long but guess its never too late.
A calvin n hobbes strip a day can...........(pliss complete it for me)lets c you beat mr.bill watterson's goofy ideas.....

Random Question:Y people screw up things?
Milipedia Answer:The most common reason why people screw things up,would be when thinking from the mind and thinking from the heart gets mixed up....
Intellectual Reasoning, logic, objective thinking play no part in certain issues.. some things need to be jus accepted, and that happens when u wholly n souly believe in certain things. When you get into a discussion, or start reasoning out things or try defending them they just get more complicated, and once you get webbed its difficult.
Falling in love, Believing in God, Losing loved ones, reason of our existence, intutions..and many such sensitive issues in life which are unexplainable... how can one apply their mind to it and satiate the quest, and clear one's doubts? It becomes too difficult to vindicate one's claim...
Its easy to preach practicality but it doesnt hold good everywhere. Somethings are matters of heart and they need to be dealt purely with emotions, feelings and simplicity... To then take it from there and reach the heights is the most beautiful thing ever.. one may stumble and fall, but its fine. Life is a risk in itself. Why fear then?... A simple faith can make life magical and the very reason for living. Its exalting... Faith is not reason... it doesnt need any logical or substantial proof.. its just felt.
Conclusion: If we can just learn to differenciate situations which need an application of mind or heart.. we can live a peaceful life, learn not to hurt people unintentionally, and live happily ever after.:)

Being a twenty something
One of the very few meaningful forwards that i have ever recieved..
Being a Twenty something....
It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are many things about yourself that you didn't know and may not like. You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now. You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met, and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you don't recognize is that they are realizing that too, and aren't really cold, catty, mean or insincere, but that they are as confused as you. You look at wat ur studyin or ur job... and it is not even close to what you thought you would be doing, or maybe you are looking for a job and realizing that you are going to have to start at the bottom and that scares you. Your opinions have gotten stronger. You see what others are doing and find yourself judging more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and are constantly adding things to your list of what is acceptable and what isn't. One minute, you are insecure and then the next, secure. You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life, but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away, and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward. You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you. Or you lie in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough that you want to get to know better. Or maybe you love someone! but love someone else too and cannot figure out why you're doing this because you know that you aren't a bad person. Getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic. You go through the same emotions and questions over and over, and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision. You worry about loans, money, the future and making a life for yourself... and while winning the race would be great, right now you are scared just to be a contender! What you may not realize is that every one reading this relates to it. We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out. I hope everyone reads this. maybe it will help someone feel like they aren't alone in their state of confusion... Its called "Quarter-life Crisis." Nothing is constant...... except change. wats life without a few risks? keep playing the game !
