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 say? Well, its about the wisdom or common sense in understanding that every coin has two sides, every person has good as well as bad in him but a wise one chooses to be on the brighter side rather than the dark side! It's all about our perception and point of view! And this is just one way of looking at things. Makes sense, right? Let us all try to make it a practice to be on the brighter side of everything and remain blind to the dark or rather wait for the sun to rise and the day to dawn! Afteral, every night has to end!

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...

Look before you Leap...

Hey there, Lets talk about Information. Many a times we are not the first hand recipients of information. We receive information from someone or through the Internet or the media. Some of us are wise enough to ponder over the details received from any third or fourth party sources but most of us blindly believe in what comes around from Mr.XYZ and everyone around. A wise one would use his/her intellect and wisdom to ponder over that information and decide whether to trust and take it in or throw it out. That is what makes us different from animals. The power of thinking and intellect. To illustrate this, lets remind ourselves of this famous story of a fox. There was once a fox in a jungle. One day the fox accidentally slipped in to a deep well and was unable to get out of there. So it came up with an idea. As soon as it heard a sheep bleat, it started exclaiming very loud  "wow. This water is so tasty!".  Hearing this the sheep went close to the well and asked...
