A constant companion or friend who never vanishes.

You might be wondering a man's best companion is a dog, one who never vanishes. But not everyone is fortunate enough to own a dog, train a dog or sustain a dog. I have never been able to have a dog.

But I would like to tell that, man's best companion rather my best companion is the gym. Its because whether it is a good day or bad day or a normal day, I get there and it basically feels good. The gym never vanishes nor the trainer refuses to admit me :) (Yeah even without fees)

If I'm high on ego the gym flattens it up, if I'm low on morale, it just ups my morale. Moreover, meeting people from different background, where salary, pride, age takes social status takes a backseat, all that matters is a 1+ hour of workout session.

Its sad to say, Bangalore doesn't have rather the infrastructure to support a good exercise regime or routine, or rather I do not have enough guts to sustain it.

I started exercising seriously only when my company provided time and transport. Tomorrow, I might not have them, so I'm still wary of changing organizations just to sustain this routine.Going far, might leave me with less time to exercise.

But discovering my love for physical exercise has been the most joyous thing to have happened to me. Not sure this post made any sense, but atleast it got me back to writing after weeks together of drudgery at office, having to deal with Indian, European management, etc etc, plus technical work, coding, re-coding. Lots of things happened, but now got the time to write.

So cheers :) 

Genius of David Gray

David Gray is one such artist whom I have known since my teenage years. I have not heard enough of him for years. And now when I realize he has belted out some super songs, I only can curse my luck for not having paid attention to his music.

The bottom line is any artist from England, Ireland, Scotland should be taken seriously, I mean by me, else I miss out on loads of good music.

Imagine David Gray music playing on a silent night. There is full silence and there you have David Gray and a pinch of spiritualism. what more can you ask for ?

I have few favorite songs from his album White Ladder way back almost 20 years, but this one which I am sharing is from 2002- 2003 album. Years go by but David Gray music still remains ahead of its time. Technology may come and but it will always be short of the talent this man possess. (Wrong comparison :))

PS - to enjoy some of the songs, you need good woofers plus clear cut speakers. To appreciate drums, bass, those acoustic guitar chords, I guess, after all you need good sound system and tuned equalizers, Please do not tune disco to alternative rock songs :) You know what I mean. To register sound from each instrument individually, into our ears and mind, you need a good sound system.Period.
