Sherlock Holms in Leadership Village!!
May/11/2009/Leadership Village
Hi friends,
This is Anil Emage from Leadership Village. Do you know who is my companion tonight……?
LeadCap diary theme/2009 |
Still no sign of him and I am here home alone. But I don`t mind waiting. He is such a fine fellow. A fine human being, who always worry about why people dirty the roads,why they don`t smile to each other, why they print ghastly designs and call it advertising! So these are his doubts.
We share a passion so intimate to both of us that we are not going to sleep tonight,but sit in front of the system. We love music. He goes for hard rock but I prefer soft. We both love Eagles, Bryan Adams and he goes wild with Mark Knopfler. About five years back he came into my gravitational field as a student. But I knew him years back. He is the younger brother of my childhood friend. When Holms became my student we used to hang around in cafes and street corners observing life and tried to learn a couple of lessons. It was fun.
We used to discuss about universal culture and how we could fit into it. After a gap of one year we meet again now. And he was still discussing about universal culture. After five years our discussion on the same topic still continues. Now it`s well past midnight. Still he didn`t turn up. But I am happily waiting. As I type this I listen to the inspiring song USA for AFRICA`s We are the world which I would love to show him. I have other videos of Lional Richie, Stevie Wonder , Bon Jovi and Eric Clapton which we shall be watching and discussing animatedly. And I am very very eager to know what he thinks about the music of Beatles, George Harrison, Abba and Carpenters. Like all the eccentrics he wanted to change his identity, so he changed his name. When he came to me he used to read a lot. Sherlock Holms being his popular character he adopted the name which I popularised in the school. Now he is known by that name in our circle. Months back one midnight he called me.
“Excuse me Emage...I want to kill you”
“Why Holms,what wrong did I commit”
“I want to die,Since you are my creator there`s no other way for me to die but to kill you”
That`s Holms for you…He is crazy about Dostoyevsky. It`s a pleasure talking to him. One day I got a poem from him as an SMS. You are the wound I am the pain….He is so poetic and creative,so I don`t mind waiting.
