Ready to win?

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 ...

Ego

Ego - a very small three letter word with the power to destroy what ever comes its way. Be it a loving heart, or an intelligent brain, this ego shatters peace in to a billion pieces. Where does this ego reside? Where does it come from? Is there any living creature that has no traces of ego in it? I guess no! Ego steps in to our life right from the time we are born! What am I saying? Are kids egoistic too? Well, in my opinion, not really - but we can see some minor traces of ego even in the babies!  The moment a baby notices his/her mom give attention to someone else, it starts crying. The moment the mother puts the baby down from her arms, it starts weeping. Not to forget the moments when we have been seen teasing a little one calling his toys as ours or his mom as ours. I have also seen some little kids behave weird and egoistic when we try to caress them or fondle them. But they are not aware of it. Nor do we realise that its actually a shade of ego popping up in to the...

Emotions - Intelligence & Emotional Intelligence

Are you Intelligent or emotional? Are you emotionally Intelligent or do you exhibit Intelligent emotions? Let's try to understand and explore. I am writing this post neither because I am emotional right now nor to show off my intelligence but to share my thoughts on the indispensable characteristics of living beings - the emotions and the Intelligence. We all are aware of what emotions are, but at some point of time in life we all wonder as to why do we get emotional - Don't we?  Emotions are natural responses to certain situations, circumstances, people or  things. Every one has different triggers to emotions and different levels at which their emotions get triggered. Some one may have well emotionally balanced mind but I personally refuse to believe that there could be any human, animal or any other living species without emotions. And I really find it too impractical and unreal when I read posts and suggestions saying things like you are the master of yo...

Time Management!

Hey there, Hope this post find you in the pink of health. Well, without wasting much time let's get to the actual content. A professor was addressing a gathering of young and middle aged audience. He made some arrangements to hand over a glass jar, few rocks, little sand, some pebbles and water to all the members in the auditorium. When the distribution of the above said things was over, the professor then asked them to fit in all the contents i.e sand, rocks, pebbles and water in to the jar given to them. But the jar was not big enough to accommodate all of those. Someone filled it up with sand and rocks and it was already full. Each person was trying and trying harder in different ways to complete the task but no body was successful. The professor then went on to demonstrate this. At first he put in all the rocks in to the jar. It was 2/3rd full already. He then poured little pebbles in to the jar and shook the jar. The little pebbles settled in the empty spaces b...

Mothers' Day!

I was just won dering what makes today dedicated to Mothers? What is so special about a mother? Well, in this selfish world with people who wouldn't care even if you are dying in front of them and also with people who wouldn't mind killing each other over sometimes silly things and sometimes for few pieces of paper (money), a mother is the only one who took care of you and me right from the time God planned our birth. She is the only one who protected you as if it were her own life, even when we didn't know ourselves and when we hardly could do anything.  So what? Why should I care? Every mother does that, even the mother of animals and insects! If this is what you think then you need to rethink. For instance, you lose your memory all of a sudden or get bedridden due to some accident or some health issue and you forget even yourself, can you tell me a list of names whom you can count upon? A list of names who would undoubtedly care for you and keep you protected ...

Life!

Life! - the simplest four letter word that encompasses infinite meaning! So what is life? For some, it's a struggle to make both the ends meet, for some it is a challenge, for some it's a game and yet some see it as a never ending learning experience! Nobody can decide if any of the above mentioned fact is a proper fit to the single, simple word life! Life is all of those and none of those! What? "What are you trying to say?", is that what is going on in your mind right now? Well, as you can't define my life and goals that are specific to me, so also none can define what exactly life is! It's definition, purpose and meaning changes from person to person, time to time, place to place, situation to situation and pov to pov (point of view) and many other factors. For instance, for a mother of two kids, managing her kids and household means everything to her. For someone who holds a high position, like the MD or CEO of a company, managing his c...

From the darkness in to light!

Hola, amigos! As another weekend is almost about to end, and a fresh week awaits its arrival, on this dark night, a few thoughts keep me occupied! I am reminded of something that I always used to think since very long. I used to think about how someone in light cannot see anything in the dark and how someone in the dark can see everything that is in the light! Perplexed? Ok, lets make it simple. Suppose you lay in your bed with lights turned off at the night and someone in the same room or from outside can obviously not be able to see you. where as you can see anyone who is in the light/someone who is visible! I hope I am clear! So, I used to think of it this way, a really wise person can be compared to the one in the light and this person cannot see anyone in the dark. A really knowledgeable and wise man cannot see flaws/faults in others, while an ignorant one (the one in the dark) can see anyone in the light and judge or comment about them! What exactly am I trying to ...

Humans of today!

Hey there, Good Morning dear readers! Firstly I would like to thank my readers for visiting my blog and sparing time to read my posts! :) As the new day dawned upon us and I sit here, some thoughts cross my mind, and I am just trying to pen them down here! A few days back, some one alarmingly showed me a video in which there was a girl who was being beaten up by few men & women and was being burnt alive! I don't vouch for the credibility of the video but still, it was a very disturbing one! And there was a bunch of people around them. Some were watching with fear, some with pity and some were capturing the moments as a video on their gadgets! But no one stepped forward to stop this from happening or even to raise voice against the attack! Well, we don't know the reason behind that attack but still, don't you think how inhumane this was? Why have we become living zombies walking around mechanically without being affected by anything except for one self! Just...

My Astrology and stars?

Hey there, Disclaimer: The contents posted here (excluding quotes obviously) are NOT copied! They are my own words! With all due respect to Astrology - a science or rather art of predictions, which could either be wrong or right! I just wanted to share something that I penned down around a year ago when I was disturbed by a man's predictions of my astrology and his self boasting about his so called super powers! Here it goes! Let me know your views! Who am I? What am I? How am I? and why am I here? Forget about me. Can you tell me who you are? What you are? and What is the purpose of your life?  Why are you struggling to read me through my eyes? I am not a book to be read by you!  Why are you struggling to prove your mettle to me? I didn't ask you to do so. Neither do I need reasons to respect you nor can any of your reasons get me to be scared/amazed of your so called powers! Yes you deserve to know about me before you take me in as your employee, ...

My thoughts!

Is India really independent? As the father of the nation rightly said, India would gain real independence when a woman can walk along a street all alone in the middle of the night. Makes me wonder! Is India ever gonna be free? A country of Gods but brutally misled by a bunch of crazy people. A country where a girl is raped even at an age where she can barely walk or talk!  A society in which her fellow woman treats her in a wrong way!  A society where in being a woman is a curse by itself, right from the time she is conceived. A place where we rarely get to see fear for evil and love for god! She neither has the freedom to look the way she wants to or live as she wants. Thousands of scary eyes haunt her every where , where ever she goes. And sometimes she has no freedom even to decide whether she wants to cover her face or breathe free! She isn't allowed to be herself even before or after marriage. Whether an adult or a minor, she never gets a c...
