Who Won?

Hey there, 

It has been a very long time since I posted here. Well, I am happy to resume blogging and here I am with a quick short story.

There was a farmer who had 4 sons. All the 4 sons were very dear to him but they all differed from each other in attitude, behavior and mannerisms. When this farmer got very old, sick and bed ridden he had thoughts on how he could wisely choose a successor for his family. After a lot of thought process he came to a conclusion. He called all the four sons to him and handed over a few grains to each of them and said "My dears! This is probably the last responsibility that I am handing over to you. Just take care of these grains". He then asked all of them to return after 6 months.

All the four son's collected  their grains and went back to their respective places. The first son was bored during the journey back home and he just gulped those raw grains in to his mouth without any thought or regret. The second one happened to cook the grains right away and eat it along with his family. The third one was very devoted to his father, He adores his father and hence he placed those grains in the altar and started to worship them every day as a part of his daily routine. However the last son had a different thought process and he ended up harvesting those grains. 

After six months when all the sons gathered at father's place, the fourth son was the only one who did not come empty handed. He returned with 100 sacks of wheat. Needless to say, the father farmer chose the fourth son as his successor.

Life also gifts us with a handful of blessings sometimes in disguise and many a times as is. We often end up misusing the bountiful gifts of life and the gift - life itself. But what is really expected of us is that we multiply what we receive and also be in a position to stay as bountiful as possible. Because, when you are bountiful, it is only then you will have enough to help others too. 


Remember that life is all about growing and also about helping others to grow. So it's high time we harvest our knowledge, our blessings, and help each other. Have a happy weekend. What are your thoughts on this? What are the things in life that we can start harvesting right away (apart from money of course 😉), do share your thoughts and views. Thank you for sparing your time to go through this article. Happy harvesting. 😇

Hi, Lets get going further in to the basics of computers. For those of you who are new to this blog, I recommend you to go through part - 1 of the basics before going ahead with this post. Here is the link to part-1: https://techspireme.blogspot.in/2018/04/basics-of-computers.html We have already read from part 1 that Software is a set of applications. Software is basically of two types: 1. System software: software required to start up the system i.e the Operating System software (by booting - a process named Boot Strap Loader loads the operating system from the Hard disk drive to the working memory RAM) 2. Application software: Software designed for a specific purpose that is a collection of programs. Application software always runs on the top of system software. Examples of Application software are: word processors like notepad, wordpad A suite of applications like MS Office Media players (VLC etc) and many more. System software is the base on which applicat...

Everything about computers

Hi, I am quite excited to start the technical part of my blog! I hope so are you! Let's start with the Abc of computers that we all find a bit hard to put in to words. These are my own definitions made really simple and easy to understand! Computer:   An electronic device that computes, stores, processes , manipulates and displays the data. Coined from the term "compute", means to calculate. Facts:  First ever computer was used for mathematical calculations. Founder: Charles Babbage - The Father of computers - invented the first ever mechanical computer called "Babbage's Analytical Engine"! Features of a Computer / Advantages of computer over a calculator: Speed, Accuracy, Storage, Multi tasking, Diligence (and many more). A computer comprises of Software and Hardware (all the physical - internal or external components/peripherals that are connected to or a part of computer ex. Keyboard, Mouse, Cabinet, Joystick, USB - pen drive etc. that we c...

Generations of Computers

Hey there, It has been really long time since I made a technical post which is my forte. So here I am with my simplified and easy to understand post. Generations of Computers: In technical context generation may be referred to as the varied drastic growth in technology day to day. Computers have changed in various ways (in terms of its size, power and abilities) since their inception. The evolution of the electronic computers over time is categorized in to five generations with differences in terms of size, computing power and the technology used. First Generation:  Early 1940's to late 1950's - Vacuum Tubes Image Source: By Unknown - U.S. Army Photo, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=55124 The first generation computers were built using vacuum tubes (CPU) and magnetic drums (storage) and used machine language programming . Vacuum tubes are glass tubes without gas, with an electrode capable of controlling electron flo...
