Manshark's Random Rants: Yellow to Red to Orange
http://mansharkrants.blogspot.com/2006/09/yellow-to-red-to-orange.html
To be aware of those in darkness. Monday, September 04, 2006. Yellow to Red to Orange. It's weird how you wake up in the morning and go about your day not knowing that you're going to meet someone and when you meet him, he'll say something to you and BOOM! Your life will change. This is what happened last Friday. And when you wake up the next day you realize that everything in your life has been stupid, stupid, stupid. And I have finally understood most of the song. Did you ever see a man. Have you ever ...

Manshark's Random Rants: The Forgotten: He who died for me
http://mansharkrants.blogspot.com/2006/12/forgotten-he-who-died-for-me.html
To be aware of those in darkness. Monday, December 18, 2006. The Forgotten: He who died for me. But I’d never really been able to put my finger on why it exactly bothered me. I rationalised that in a country where there was a war, someone had to die, someone had to give their life. For if I didn’t think like that, I guess I would need to take up arms and give my life too for ‘the cause’ whatever that was. One person at a time? When we observe those two minutes of silence, when we see images of the dead,.

Love for Sri Lanka in the coming months and years. And maybe, just maybe, even real and dramatic enough to be “. Hey Mans...

Manshark's Random Rants: Do I really want to be a lawyer?!?
http://mansharkrants.blogspot.com/2006/12/do-i-really-want-to-be-lawyer.html
To be aware of those in darkness. Friday, December 08, 2006. Do I really want. To be a lawyer. There’s a path before you, a path that ends at a cliff, a path you have not walked before. Once you start walking it, you know there can be no returning, not to what you leave behind. So you make a decision to walk, you find someone who makes the sunshine a little bit brighter around you and put one foot in front of the other. But who’s to say the parachute will not come? Now back to the studying.ack! GOod luck...

Manshark's Random Rants: Hope on the Edge
http://mansharkrants.blogspot.com/2006/12/hope-on-edge.html
To be aware of those in darkness. Wednesday, December 06, 2006. Hope on the Edge. When you’re a kid, there’s this game some adults play with you. They hold out a fist to you and ask you to guess what they hold within. So you guess – a chocolate! And some adults give you whatever it is they brought. But there were others. Others who made you peel back their fingers, one by one, till you can see the treasure they hold, till you can grasp it within your own small fist. Wednesday, December 06, 2006 6:12:00 AM.

Manshark's Random Rants: Living for the moment
http://mansharkrants.blogspot.com/2007/02/living-for-moment.html
To be aware of those in darkness. Wednesday, February 14, 2007. Living for the moment. We always look for an end, a goal, a conclusion that sometimes the means to that end is forgotten, and perhaps left unenjoyed. But what if there was no end? Would we enjoy the traveling more? Would we still be as enthusiastic about every step, every skip, every tumble? Does it make the traveling any less sweeter? Isn’t it by looking for that almost ready-made conclusion that the sweet is embittered? But if that explosi...

Manshark's Random Rants: Perverted or Repressed or Plain Psycho?
http://mansharkrants.blogspot.com/2007/02/perverted-or-repressed-or-plain-psycho.html
To be aware of those in darkness. Monday, February 26, 2007. Perverted or Repressed or Plain Psycho? If you've lived in Sri Lanka long enough, there's a very likely chance that you/ a girl you know has been "eve-teased" - either groped on the bus/ in a crowd, or at the very least have had a few well-chosen words/ remarks aimed at you/ her as you/ she walked past a group of men. (This though is not just in Sri Lanka, but common in the sub-continent.). Ravana kept asking in this. It was held at the Hilton ...

To be aware of those in darkness. Sunday, December 10, 2006. You know how you see something hilarious and think, damn, why didn't I bring my camera? Well, this friend of mine had her camera and captured these on the doors of the Ladies and Gents bathrooms in (I believe) Amsterdam :o) Apparently, a friend who was with her was embarrassed she chose to photograph this, but as she later told me, ". But how often do you see things like that? That quote's in pink cos she's a pink sort of person :o). Tuesday, D...
