The Tenets of Peace

Having gone through this arduous pilgrimage called life, thus far, without overly much adversity, I have, through my powers of foresight, supreme judgement, keen observation and adaptability, garnered and treatised on the tenets of peace. Enjoy!

1) Peace is all about listening to good, soul-soothing music and sipping on Bacardi breezers.
2) Peace is when you spend 160 bucks, to travel halfway across the friggin' countryside to bungee jump, only to be informed you can't, and then realize the wild goose chase was totally worth it, when you see your friends around/with you.
3) Peace is about standing on a high rise rooftop, feeling the wind in your hair, and watching the occasional kite soar past you.
4) Peace is all about sitting at Nescafe, and wasting time.
5) Peace is NOT playing taash at Nescafe, with Dhar, Goel and the casino gang, no matter how many times the bastards ask you to.
6) Peace is what Attachee, Tallu and I normally do in Moti's room!
7) Peace is when you reailze that Sumeet Khullar, Akshay Gautam, Abhimanyu Talwar, Rohan Jain, Sanny Choudhary, Ramajjla Vivek Govind, Gaurav Lodha, Mohit Mittal, Gagandeep Singh and Abhishek Arora are gods!
8) Peace is about realizing that it is futile planning trips to Pondicherry or any other godforsaken place, and reconciling yourself with the fact, that you'll just tag along with any other trip someone else is planning.
9) Peace is about figuring out who are studs, and who are choos.
10) Peace is about realizing YOU are a stud!
11) Peace is about realizing YOU are a choo!
12) Peace cannot be attained through fags, booze, dope, fuseball, pool or AOE. They are fraud.
13) Peace is about realizing, what you thought was everything in life, was actually a small fraction of what life is actually all about.
14) Peace is about staring up at the sky and admiring the clouds/ sunset/ treeline that you see.
15) Peace is when you are at home with Mom and Dad.
16) Peace is when you are hugging huge, furry dogs called Simba and Iris.
17) Peace is when you realize how fortunate you are, to be in the position, where you're at, and be grateful that things are not as bad as they could've been.
18) Peace tells you that skunks stink ... they are smelly, disgusting creatures!
19) Peace is all about moving on from kiddish, immature nu metal, deth metal and other similar rubbish to hip-hop, pop, electronica, jazz rock, progressive and underground.
20) Peace is all about hogging on biryani, sausages, ham, bacon, ilish maach, and the plethora of other non-veg dishes out there (Mama, I'm coming home on the 21st!) .
21) Peace is confidently telling your stoutly Bengali grandma: "Aami bangla bolte paari na!"
22) Peace is when you sit around at Central Park in CP, with friends, in the evening, and admire the brilliant sunset, across the backdrop of the not-so-brilliant CP skyline.
23) Peace is when you realize that drumming sucks, and it was a guitar player that you should've been all along!
24) Peace is about realizing how fortunate you are, to have had the honour of playing alongside Mridul Ganesh.
25) Peace is when you realize that you're a friggin' compu tchienticht at IIT Delhi!

and lastly,

26) Peace is all about ... F* ALL, screw the peace, screw the skunk, screw the copyrights .... be at peace!!!

:p
