What if I were to fade away tomorrow?
Would you miss me?
Would you care that I was dead?
Or would you thank your lucky stars that I was finally gone?
Or would you just not care? Live life with the "don't know, don't care" regime?
Who do we live life for after all? Ourselves? Or the people we love?
Would you miss me? Or would you move on? Would you write a poem when I was gone? Would you cry and press you lips as they trembled? Would you hate yourself for not having said the things you wanted to? Or would you just not care? One soul less, how does it matter?
The smoke shall blow me away, my ashes running free in the ocean and the free air emancipating my soul..
The spirit shall run free, once again!
Listening to: What Sarah said by Death cab for cutie. I love the song! :)

This world is fake.
And you'll be remembered till a time. After it, its fizz in the air.
I believe Im still a apin in the ass for millions, but I dont care a shit.
By the way "One soul less"..doesnt matter to humans, might matter to God. Remember!
peace.
My point exactly! We only matter to GOD! The world.. Well, it is big! Too big for its own good...
What if I were to fade away tomorrow?
what shit ... what will i do when i come to india then !! u wont get rid of me that easy
Would you miss me?
Would you care that I was dead?
are u kidding me ... im having trouble with not missing u and i am just in a different country ... different dimension all together .. thats just cruel!!
Or would you just not care? Live life with the "don't know, don't care" regime?
well .. i know ... im a geek remember .. its my job to know .. care ... what about all those hugs .. even though they were just >:D<
Who do we live life for after all? Ourselves? Or the people we love?
hmmm .. as much as i want to say for myself for some reason it always feels like in the end ur living for someone else .. may be its the people we love .. dont know .. but ull be the first person the day i figure out .. ;)
Before you ask these questions - you have to make sure you have left your mark....and people will surely miss you
We matter at most to a handful of people.. the very close ones.. like the immediate family. Of all others.. they would remember you for a certain time and then its all gone.. only the closest ppl might really keep remembering you for a long time..
btw.. why such thots??
good blog n nice words
i'd miss ur blog :) ..n ur comments :(
OMG!! I just wrote a post called LIFE and DEATH!
every pebble makes a difference to raise d level of water...every drop of rain helps a tree to grow...u still askin whether u'll b missed??

u'll be missed by family n friends for sure!rest assured..the blogger community will miss you too!! :)

depends on who you address this to.....i am sure the answers will be yes from ur family n loved ones...yeah people on d street may not remember u...but ppl in blogville will surely do..
n am sure all ur things will miss u:)
Anindita sweetz, the truth is, everyone will miss u dearly. But nothing lasts forever. While ur loved-ones will miss u always, ur friends and blog-mates will miss u for a while and then move on.
Im still alive, and some blog mates of mine hv cut me off their lives for good. I just heard the news.
So d u think these ppl wud care if I die? :)
*HUGZ* but I'd still miss u tonz!
Keshi.
Ani
this world's an illusion, all that matters is ur family n friends, and thy for sure will miss u alot
I bel, everyone is here to serve a purpose...to touch some lives and leave a mark on some.
Hope u will fulfil ur purpose and I will fulfill mine :)
:)
Well written.
We live life for ourselves, and hence automatically for the people we Love. Because if someone Loves you, they will set you free to live life the way you want to.
You will die one day, but the spirit that was yours will remain alive, probably not in one form, but scattered all over.
So, to me, it doesn't matter what happens after I die. What matters is, Am I doing justice to the spirit within me? Am I alive?
I feel death of someone loved creats a void that can never really be filled, but ofcourse its presence tends to get less obvious with time...though he pain lingers on - raising n lowering at different times to different levels....
hey..i wana put a similar set of questions to my near n dear ones...i know they ll be senti 4 while..n as everyone says life moves on...the drama continues..
That's well written but I wonder for whom did you write it for ??
well...absolutely..well written...BTW cant think of an explaination that forced u to write such stuff...well wateva it mite b...but ur post did trigger my thoughts..
um actually sumone who lives in the present..death and after are things far-off...
i live in a bubble..love and get loved is wat drives me each morning..so i wud say that i live for my loved ones ..
itz all give and take..i live for otherz and so they live for me...i matter to them and hence they matter to me..
and so um in love to live and i live to love..
OMG wat greek am i typing..but this is how my minds feelin so cnt help..
visit my blog sumtime..

luv:nickku
Man, thats one awesomely written post :-)
We live coz life is too dear to us,
We live coz our instincts tell us to,
Its complicated, every-one lives for different reasons. But as far as the world after you are gone is concerned, "the world" wouldn't change, "your world" would. :-)
I liked the concluding sentence very much
"Spirit shall run free, once again"
Cheers!
Lovely lines...
I second Ceedy and Cindy here.
hmm....i will miss your blog :)
everything is an illusion... :)
Ofcourse there will b ppl wo will miss u!ppl u mattered to....but y r u gettin such thoughts in mind?hope everything is fine.
u wont believe it but just the othr day i was talking to my friend about the same thing... as to if i were to pop off the surface of the other some day... how many would remember me.. in what way.. what will i be remembered for... will they spare a thought at my demise.. regret the fact they didnt say things to me which i should have heard... its a strange life...brilliant post...
Before answering your query...
Let Me Know U First...!!!
well babes....yeah people will remember u, but the truth is....for sometime....
Labels : Death , life..
:)
beautifully written..that's one ques which crosses everyone's mind once in a while..
..and I thought I knew and saw it all....!!!
neways..super post sis..
First, Thankyou for dropping by my blog. I really appreciate it.
WOW....to be honest, i must say....I wud miss your writings for sure if u were gone!!!!
Anyway, it sure is the truth what you wrote....and trust me, you will find people who will miss you....and they will cry....and even if they continue with their lives soon enough, it will not mean that they dont have you in their hearts.
Beautiful use of words....
P.S: Blog rolled you!!!!
Hey thanks for droppin by my blog.
This is just too serious for a 20 yr old to talk..cheer up girl :) Ofcourse, we all love you!!
Cute pic btw :)
when someone leaves this world, the life of people who love him/her will never be the same. And thats the ultimate truth of life, because nothing can replace those we love once they are gone.
@ Joel
Mwah!
@ Ceedy
It is not about leaving a mark! I don't want people to rem'r me because of something I have done. I want to understand that if tomorrow I don't live, will they rem'r me for the person I was. You don't always need to justify your existence. At least I don't think so.
@ Vrij
My point exactly!
These thoughts, with the recent blasts, I don't know if I will live to another bright day! It is just random..
@ Ashu
Thanks.
@ Trinaa
Aww.... Thanks! :)
@ Solitaire
You did?
Will check! :)
@ Mayz
It is random. I digress too much to be able to pin point which thought triggers what..! I'm made to think and I do exactly that! :)
@ Swati
:P
Do you really like the blog title so much???? :D :D :D
@ Macadamia
Now, that's called confidence! I love it! =D
@ V
*every1 will get busy with there life and will forget you*
Thanks! That DOESN'T HELP!!!
Life is not always about living the moment. There are responsibilities and there are people you owe yourselves too. Life is not about I, it is about the We and the people involved to make it fun and worth living. There is more than a single selfish outlook!!!!
@ Saim
It is not really addressed to anyone in particular..
Just random thoughts.. :)
@ Keshi
Thanks! :)
It is not really about who would miss me more or less and who would forget me after some time... Life cannot be the way it is without everyone who touches it and everyone who is in it.. Life is a very big word, with a lot of things in it...
Blogerville is such a small dimension in our life and yet it is so important.. It is what we choose to make important.. Same way, it is we who choose to miss someone.. If people don't miss you and cut you off dear, you should be happy that they have! At that way, you know who is worth it and who isn't! :)
They don't deserve to know you, and they certainly don't deserve your love!
Mwahhh!!
Take care, God bless! :)
@ Div
I hope we do our best with the things that we are destined to fulfilled and yet, at the same time I hope we manage to be true to ourselves and not forget our needs and our desires..
*Hugs*
@ Alok
Love the fact that you are thinking about the spirit within.. We all must do it the justice it deserves... :)
@ Cinderella
The pain shall always linger.. Though the intensity might diminish..
@ Orchid
Life is the biggest drama of them all!
@ Anurag
Well, I blog for myself. Unless the post is dedicated to someone, I write for myself. So this post too is written for myself...!!
@ nikkita
There is never any explanation behind my thoughts..
Though I would say I live for others and hence they live for me and not vice versa.. Will drop by your blog soon..
@ Express
Thank you!
Finally, someone who understood the post! My world would change, for both me and the people in it! And that is what I am talking about! :)
@ Sameera
:) Thanks!
@ Vishesh
You will miss the blog? It isn't that great you know! :P
@ Ria
Everything is good! :)
@ Swayam
Same pinch then!
Thank you! :) :) :)
@ am in a trance
I'm not here to prove myself to you or to anyone else.. so the amount you know me, is the best you will get...
@ Mia
That's the sad part... :(
@ Bhai with chai
Thank you! :)
@ Nitin
*And I thought I knew and saw it all*
Care to elaborate?
Are you talking about the blogger community in general or me in particular?
@ Gagan
Don't be so formal! :D
Thank you for the blogroll! :)
@ Mez
If I'm not serious now, I will never be! One always needs to reflect, to understand and to ponder to be able to appreciate and to be able to thank the people for what they do.. If I always remain the clown that I am, no one will get to know the person I am! :)
I need to do this, for myself! :D
@ Lena
Hear hear! :)
Leaving a mark does not necessarily mean doing something out of this world...simply helping your near and dear ones or your immediate neighbours is also an act by which people will remember you...
but at the same time the bitter truth is - we are only beings - our defination into this existence comes by our name, our actions, our deeds - and this is by which someone will remember us...if you remove all these layers - you are almost equivalent to a silent vegetable or a fruit...one in many - comes get consumed and forgotten....but out of these one mango which is sour or really sweet will be savoured for long time....and lastly..we are all designed to be perishable - even our memories...so someone close to you will remember you for the time they are around after that you, your memory and everything will eventually fade...
sorry for the long reply...
Heyyy.. I'm sowie! Was a lil busy this week and that's why couldn't comment!!
Well, to the topic, I guess this is a material world!! There's been so many times when I've felt that none of the close ones whom I have now are gonna last! Of late I stopped caring too! Cos life goes on and things do change and in each stage we have a different set of close ppl... And yea, this post is too serious as someone has written above!!
Lowwe you!! And I will miss you (atleast your comments for now)!!
And your new pic is cute!! Better than the last one!!
ouch as many as lives as u can with ur love n u wudnt need to ask these questions!!
@anindita
na i like your name better!! :D
PS:blog updated
keep visitng!
peace!
:)
When your blog was still uploading i was thinking that i hope i get to read one more poetry or some lyrical thing on your blog..... and it came true...!! :)
ONe Soul Less..... i liked that...!
it matters....but it depends on the Soul!
One soul less.
And there's another soul up..
The world's a fucking dead place.
Period.
Btw would love to get candid with ya and stuff,girl :P
Do drop by yr email if you wanna at escapingmyself.aayushi@gmail.com
the thing is no one misses anybody and as they say lyf goes on and shit keeps happening, the strong ones risee back and the meek ones give up!!
I'll forget you long before you die.
Just wait for sometime.
You don't need to ask questions.
I made your job easy. :P
that's d law of life isn't it? it moves on..
we might be missed. but only for sumtime and then occasionally. but yea.. if we have made our mark with sincere love and friendship we'll defntly b missed..
Happy Friendship Day :)
Visit My Blog... N' U'll Get The Answer....
I Guess...!!
TakeCare Dear...
:)
true, I agree. Thats why I said I'd miss u. :) HUGS!
Keshi.
Such lovely post,....a delgihtful read....anx said it all :)
Everyone said it so you dare not fade away Anindita di :)
huh?! this is like the first post I read :-|
arr!! dnt think like that b'ful lady!! loads of people will miss u ;)
well i will miss u on Ambrosia :D
yummy food post there :))
hey stop thinking like that :) and well remember once being or not being doesn't matter... it is the living that matters...
i think the candle in the wind blows on and lives its independent life, roaming teh world and all the galzxies, befor it returns as another human on earth..
people will miss people, but i think its ephemeral.. cos everything in life (n death) is transcient.. a tear n regrets mean nothing much when the candle in the wind invisibly moves on..
(a belated)happy friendship day sweetheart.. loadsaaaa love..
mwuahhhhh n hugs :*
Haila, was precise and I made sense! simultaneously!
;-)
kichu notun lekh nah...
*waiting*
Lady where art thou ?!
Jash to dushman ke jaane ka bhi nahin manate...
yahan kambhakt doston ne jaan le rakhi hai!
@ Ceedy
The long reply was welcome! :)
As far as everything else goes, Life is just what we choose to make it to be.. It is just that sometimes, you want to be appreciated.. and no one does that!
@ Shrav
Don't ever stop caring! It isn't fair. Not to you and not to the others..
@ Gunj
I needed to do this for myself.. As far as touching lives go, that always happens! :)
@ Swati
:)
Will be there to chk.
Cheers. ^_^
@ Mez
:) :) :)
@ Rushabhgandhi
The soul will always matter! :)
@ aayushi
Crystal, eh?! :D Sweet!!
The world is a fucking dead place, but we never cease to matter!
@ Buzzz
Strong ones rise back! But what happens when the strong ones break?
@ Sutta
The feeling is mutual. :)
@Knatchbulley Hughzscene
Life is weird, na? Period!
@ am in a trance
Will do!
@ Keshi
I will miss you too!
@ Meghana
I will try not to fade away! :)
@ Veens
Living does matter, but perishing is a part of living. Whether we perish in the body or the mind, is the part I'm worried about!
@ Jane
:)
@ Express
You wait ends!
@ Cindy
I'm Back! :D Will be less visible here! The posts will be just as intense though! ;)
@ Prakhar
If you insist!
