I have this unusual knack of probing too much about any possible thing, always thinking the other way round, & getting all the possible queries cleared beforehand about any task that I'm about to take in my hand. I always tend to pose a lot of 'What-ifs' prior getting along anything, the miss of which renders some sort of insecurity within me regarding the successful completion of the chore. Be it for any reason, being a possible potential perfectionist or evading a humiliating scene or avoid making a fool of myself (never bothered to probe much for the reasons though), i was ,usually, critiqued and looked down as incompetent by all & sundry, & with serious concerns raised about my decent enough performance in my management studies. The result is, as yet, too controversial a topic to be raised though but that's a different part of the story altogether.

All said and done, here, at the actual battleground, during numerous of our rendezvous for assignments of all sorts, when i exhibited the same uncanny trait, much to my amazement, i have always been looked upon as the devil's advocate, holding unlike approaches & have been appreciated for the same too.
With the least intention of blowing my own trumpet & admitting & keeping in mind the long way yet to be travelled, the only motive of mine for penning it all down is just to make us discard the preconceived notions we hold up. We are less of what people perceive us & more of what we actually are.

Everything we possess & display, is there in us for some good & a reason. Nothing is useless. We just fail to find the right fit!

Where does the time flies??

Presently, I'm undergoing a treatment which is supposed to be a long 4 month affair. Almost one month of which has already passed by. In my other hand, I have this last student phase of my life, the so called 2-years MBA program, which will be over in the next one month (in case, i'm not barred to appear, for my attendance or i flunk). Before getting down on any of them, the duration of either appeared an age long engagement with the time that will make me count every passing second of it. Surprisingly, just one month left to get the passport to the corporate and one month down towards a better life, things didn't seem to go the way they were expected.

All of a sudden, today i wondered, "Where does the time flies???"
& needless to say, found the answer within; the same time!

The chores that we take up, either take up a very small proportion of our life or may eat up the largest chunk of it. If it's too small (say, taking daily dose of pills), it perfectly & subtly sets itself in the larger canvas of life that we don't even realize or are bothered or troubled by it.
And if it is too big a thing (say, dragging towards a paper-wise degree), it soon becomes a way-of-life & doesn't leaves you with enough time & space to ponder, "have the times changed?"
It becomes your life, even though the transition period may be notable and painful!!

Time goes at its own pace. Time doesn't fly, its just that we don't realize!

Soon, we'll be ,again, shifting gears to jobs, meetings, clients, corporates.. life will change but the underlying principles won't!!

Yet another successful realization of the fact or ,atleast, a convincing ignorance!

Happiness seems difficult if we look for the reasons and impossible without it

from Cats & Dogs to Mads & Hogs...

Ever since i have been in Mumbai, I have always found the canine and feline family, in here, in total peace & perfect harmony; absolute contrary to the tales that i have been conditioned with about them for all the years of my life. It always interests me to see how the fight, that may have existed since the humans landed on the planet or may be longer, has faded away whilst we, the ,so-called, most blessed creatures on the planet, have our fights getting acrimonious, day by day.

Each day, all of us grow thirstier for others blood, greedier for others happiness, jealous of others contentment and envious of others prosperity. Contrastingly, but happily, the century's old resentment, that has been deep rooted in the temperament of the man's best friends, seems to have shredded away to a great extent!

We adopted them & they adapted! We fed them on our left overs but now, their left overs are getting into & taking a good hold of us. Strange but true!!

Are we really the most intelligent creatures on the earth??

Now I feel, it's easier to change the DNAs than to change obstinate egomaniacs! Unfortunately, the age old cliche of 'fighting like cats and dogs' will hold no good in the modern times.

Joy-Us?

Think of the following two situations. The first one, you are absolutely joyous, ecstatic and feel on the top of the world, but the people around you are sad and seem gloomy. The second one, puts you down and out while the world around you resembles a carnival.

Why on earth am i making you imagine these situations? Probably because, may be we understand things better when we can relate to it.

At the first instance, you'll always find yourself a part and share the same tragic feelings with the people around you, no matter how hard you try. The whole world will appear a melancholy.
The second instance, however, your sorrows will seem to take much smaller proportions due to the high energy field and the positive vibes all around you.
Yes, sorrows are contagious & so are the joys! The choice, ultimately, lies with us as to what aura do we like to create around for ourselves to live in.

So the sure-short way to a blissful life is, Make people ,around you, happy & you'll surely experience joyous moments and blessed lives!
