A PAIR Defeats an ACE!



So many World's Embroilments would Dispel, if taken the discourse of DISCUSSIONS..

"How important can be SHARING EXPERIENCES..DISCUSSING them with people??..Or is it really required??..Why should I even bother to disclose my erudition if I myself know enough!..Does it really make a difference if he might be knowing few extra things??..".. These were the questions that used to storm my mind couple of years back..In fact..I used to be so very complacent regarding some things..that I couldn't understand why do people need to even talk about them..or discuss those things among them..and consequently I kept myself sundered from the art of SHARING OF IDEAS..

If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.
- George Bernard Shaw

Fluttering through the history of SUCCESSFUL LEADERS, one can easily depict a common quality possessed by them..ART OF CONVERSATION..All of them have been great speakers..and most importantly..GREAT LISTENERS..Both these things collaborate into DISCUSSIONS..!..

"SHARING" works in all the realms of life..be it PERSONAL..PROFESSIONAL.. or RECREATIONAL!..The embers of HAPPY RELATIONSHIPS can last till eternity if seized by airs of SHARING AND DISCUSSIONS..Professional adequacy can be augmented if supplemented by cooperation!..

I never used to understand this concept..and now that I have, I am SHARING my experience with you!..I can not say how much beneficial has it been for me..but I can surely say that I am on the path of IMPROVEMENT..and I am liking it!

Like a PAIR that always defeats an ACE, a person open and extrovert enough to share and collaborate ideas will always subdue an ingeniously dexterous covert..

INSPIRE ME



"INSPIRATION" makes people rise from ASHES TO THE SKY..
Stirs them..Shudders from Within .."INSPIRATION" instills the WILL TO TRY..
INSPIRE ME ..I WANT TO FLY HIGH..HIGHER..MORE HIGH..!

The world would have been a dark sullen murky place to be, had there been no INSPIRATION to live. Look around..Anywhere..Everything is full of life.. and possess the power to inspire..It all depends on how much one wants to imbibe..

A flying bird against the wind making efforts to remain in the sky..A wretched impoverished family owning HAPPINESS and SMILE.. DISABLED or DIFFERENTLY-ABLED living life the way we are..I mean to say that Everything.. and literally everything..can enliven and exalt anyone..

I was reading about SACHIN TENDULKAR that how has his peregrination been to acquire the acclaimed dais he stands on today.. His entire journey has been so exhorting!..His panegyric tale is all filled with DETERMINATION..DILIGENCE..and SELF BELIEF..

I read about a guy, Naga Naresh Karutura, who made it to IIT and then to GOOGLE..His parents are illiterate..He has no legs and moves around in his powered wheel chair.. He says, "God has always been planning things for me. That is why I feel I am LUCKY."..

These stories..these people..these ideas are surrounding us..I was talking to my MUM and she told me her STORY that how after marriage she managed to handle her FAMILY(We had a joint family of 5 people even when me and my sister weren't born!)..her CAREER..and her CHILDREN..all simultaneously.. Her eyes were sparkling as she told me how she studied along with our clamantly piquing impasse crying voices..Even when everyone around her didn't want her to study (You know..GIRLS-SHOULD-HANDLE-THEIR-FAMILY concept!), she didn't give up...To give her exam, she traveled 300 kms leaving her 5 days old child (my sister) at home during night..gave the exam in the morning..and then came back the next day at noon..When she was selected, it was mandatory not to take any leave for the first training month. Unfortunately for her, she fell ill of Tuberculosis. Even then..she used to get up in the morning and prepare food for the "FAMILY"..used to go for the training with high fever..studied for the internal exams and even took care of us..

I listened to her each and every single word..and after she finished speaking..I could just not stop myself from hugging her..

INSPIRATIONS are omnipresent..We just need to keep open our senses..and become RECEPTIVE..

This post I owe to my mum.. She inspires me to my core.. I may not have achieved anything till today..but I have promised to myself that I will achieve everything I aspire one day..because I believe I can..because I have with me MY INSPIRATION..

IN PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS..


I have always been intrigued by the term "HAPPINESS"..Such an important word but with an obscure meaning..It definitely has a blurring.. rather an obfuscating implication..one can never know what exactly can make a person happy..because the moment one attains that happiness, the very same idea fails to entice him..then he aims for bigger things which probably will make him "HAPPIER"..and the impasse journey continues..! What exactly can make someone really HAPPY??..

In school, I had a firm belief that the topper of my class was the happiest guy in this world!..I remember all those reprimanding sessions when my mum used to find out all my hidden Exam Answer Sheets, that I used to surreptitiously enshroud under the bedding..(such a stupid I was!)..! And then she used to exemplify him (the topper of my class..a close friend of mine!)..At that time.. I wanted to be like him.. as HAPPY as him..

After I finished my schooling..I came to know that my supposedly GOOD MARKS weren't good enough to get me through any engineering college.. and that by even scoring soaring marks in all subjects, I still needed to clear the entrance examinations..!..Anyway..I studied and cleared the exam..and when I cleared it.. I was really HAPPY!..

Good-Marks-Make-You-Happy concept no longer enthused me.. I went to college with my Happiness-meter crossing its maximum limit.. 4 years later.. I didn't posses that meter any more..!..My entire fundamentals of measuring HAPPINESS had drastically changed..

Since then, a lot has gone through my life..(Yes I have dumped and moved a lot above my MARKS-DRIVEN-HAPPINESS fundamental!)I have seen a few successes..many failures..Personally and Professionally ..Out of my experiences (whatsoever they have been)..there is one thing I have learned..that there are always so many things to do..and when you achieve them, many others are conjured..!

Today..I see myself in the mirror..I see a guy who has got a gigantic universe in front of him to explore..I am happy..But I want to be HAPPIEST..Not HAPPIER.. As they say..GOOD IS THE ENEMY OF THE BEST..But how do you demarcate between GOOD AND THE BEST??..How will I be able to discern when I will be HAPPIEST...??..Will I be gratified to reach my Felicity-Acme.. Or the moment I will be HAPPIEST, I will want to be HAPPIER THAN THE HAPPIEST.. This fretting thought will linger in my mind almost forever..and till I overcome it..My Pursuit Of Happiness will go on..and on..

CASUAL SEX - A Win-Win Case For MEN..Powered By WOMEN!!



"Indian Women" and "Casual Sex"..an oxymoron in our societies few years back..has taken a back seat today..!..Welcome to this new era where women, who decided to break women-are-emotional-fools concept, as being religiously followed by their mums or grand-mums or grander ones.., have successfully obliterated it..Really?????..

Let me give you a bit of an insight of the definition of "CASUAL SEX"..It means having sex without thinking..without emotions..no strings attached..no questions asked..nothing just sex and "absolutely nothing else at all" that may involve further allegiances..

Women today have led the frontier when it comes to expressing their sexual desires.. In this age of 72-hour after abortion pills, hole proof condoms and the anonymity that comes by working or living in a big city..(where neighbors may fail to notice even a death in the abutted house..!)..the three big fear factors ..PREGNANCY .. HIV ..and SOCIAL ABANDONMENT..have ameliorated..(obviously they don't have to fear if they will get a guy or not..however "not so attractive" she may be..she can always ..(yes always..!!.) manage to get a guy(same quality or above than the girl!) for a night..!!) and consequently women have attacked the undefended territory of this taboo with all guns rolling..!...

For guys it has become a relatively tricky game to play..(though advantageously tricky!!)..Well they have always been taught to initiate as per "girls-are-shy" myth..But today..they are getting laid just by putting their RELATIONSHIP STATUS - SINGLE on FB..or "SEEKING WOMEN FOR DATING, FRIENDSHIP" updates..Today's women love to play the lead..After a simple "Hi!"..the next sentence from her side can be "Your Place or Mine!" ..leaving guys dumbfounded..for good obviously.!...

Another best thing going in their favor..they are not required to get involved in any commitment..(their biggest fear!!)..thanks to our women debouching their WOMEN ARE FREE AND EQUAL TO MEN slogan!!..

So who is happier ..Men Or Women??..

I will vote for Men..Reasons being..They have nothing to lose..(except one thing!;)).. This is one thing they had always wanted and will always want..rather desperately..and now they are getting it without much of an effort..!!..For Women ..I am a bit skeptical regarding their fundamentals regarding this whole CASUAL SEX thing..(NOT INVOLVING ANY THINKING OR EMOTIONS).. For them even if they manage not to think about anything..or question anything about being involved in a CASUAL SEX..they are and will always be seized by constant intriguing crazy queries.."WAS IT BECAUSE I WAS TOO DRUNK DAT I CHOSE THIS GUY??..".."DID HE USE ME..??".."IS HE THINKING THAT I WAS VERY EASY DEED FOR HIM ??.."..blah blah blah!!.. For Guys..They will always be happy to gain the score..You know..They don't "THINK"!!!..

Cheers!

"LIBRA" OR "VIRGO" : WHO AM I???..

THE NEW ENTRANT


Earth has "Wobbled" and now they say that I am a "VIRGO" : Disciplined, Highly Organized, Punctual, Tireless, and (now the most important!) the "PERFECTIONIST"..!!! :O :O)..OMG..Am I???!!.. I dun know..But out of all the sign signs, I am pretty sure that I can be anything but a "VIRGO"..!! ..Come on guys It's been 23 years that have been a "LIBRA"n..an now it is really hard for me to believe that I have Changed for and developed some extraordinary qualities without putting up any extra effort!! It bemuses me, rather confuses me...Who the hell am I???..

THE BACKGROUND STORY..

About 2,000 years ago, the astrological signs and the astronomical ones were the same. But they are not anymore. The locations of the signs are based on the sun's location on the first day of the spring. That location in the sky has slowly drifted westward because of something called "precession" -- the earth continually wobbles (a scientific term for a slight motion) every 26,000 years. Since the constellations were first identified, they have shifted some 30 degrees. Translation: The signs have slipped about a month westward, relative to the stars.

CONSEQUENTLY...

If you follow astrology that is linked to the constellations, your sign would go from say, a Gemini to a Taurus and all this has been because of a new entrant ..the 13th sign, OPHIUCHUS..!!..

So has the sign really changed??..

Actually, there are different branches of astrology. A main Eastern form, for example, called Sidereal astrology, looks to the background stars, those famous constellations, as its guide. Western astrology -- which uses the zodiac -- has its signs fixed to the seasons.
According to the Assistant Director of Morrison Planetarium at the California Academy of Sciences, Mr. Bing Quock, For those who follow Western astrology, "astrologers are not talking about the constellations at all. When an astrologer says the sun is in a certain sign, they're talking about the sign, the location relative to the equinox. They're not talking about the location of the constellations. "..

So basically, if you follow the Sidereal astrology, the Eastern branch, your sign may have shifted...and if not ..then everything is as normal as ever..!!..

For me..I am still confused..the thought of incurring such ingenious traits is making me appreciate myself more and more..I think I am gonna ditch "LIBRA"..for my new "VIRGO".. Come on people..Who the hell in this world doesn't like to be called a "PERFECTIONIST"..??!!!..

How Can We Be So Corrupt????



How can we INDIANS be so corrupt?? If there is anything that I can remember of the past year is corruption ... and corruption.. and more of the same!.. So be it the 2G SPECTRUM SCAM (that caused the exchequer, and consequently us, more than $38 billion or Rs. 1,76,000 Crores!) , the IPL SCAM, or the CWG SCAM (Rs. 70,000 crore were spent on the Games, only half or god knows how much less of the amount was actually spent!) to name a few..!(unfortunately!)....How can I even forget the SATYAM SCAM!(The largest scam till date in the Corporate World history that involved a defalcation of Rs. 14000 Crore!!)..There are just too many of them..But these are those which have tarnished, rather decimated, the image of our POLITICIANS, our CORPORATES and our BUREAUCRATS.

Considering the amount of money being embezzled, no wonder we are still a Poor Nation and unfortunately we will always remain the same..Do you guys know that in our country, more than 75% people earn less than $2 a day..even Sub-Saharan Africa, which is one of the world's poorest nation, has that figure under 73%!!!!..I mean..can you believe that..??..At one place we talk about billions of dollars of money being despoiled by people governing us..and on other place we have our 75% population failing to secure even a square-meal..!.. We seriously are a country with UNITY IN DIVERSITY..!!!..

So, what drives our ADMINISTRATORS to plunder "our" money for their own splurge..?? How can they be so Heartless and Malevolent that they don't even spare people living under BPL of their selfish money-minded social scathe??..Probably they are a bunch of really smart people who have mastered the art of be-fooling us..or probably we are a group of 1.1 billion really dopey people..Whichever be the way..we surely are not the winners..

I read an article which described the deplorable state of the Homeless Farmers of Rajasthan that how they have been bereaved of even their minimum basic monthly wages of Rs 2000 per month through MNREGA, the world's largest job program for the poor landless farmers.. It is really disheartening to see such a pitiable state..At least poor must be spared from the disgrace of corruption..They can surely not afford to be a part of these money-making junkets of our administrators..Let them live peacefully, if not happily, for god's sake..

FACEBOOK to SHUT DOWN!!..What The 'Faux'!



OMG..I was astounded to read this news in an article published on the ‘Weekly Worldwide News’, a news-parody website claiming to be the source of “The World’s Only Reliable News." that horrified the Facebook users across the world. The story in the site disclosed that the World Engrossing social networking website Facebook will shut down on Mar 15, 2011, because it has become too stressful to manage it for the founder Mark Zuckerberg.

The American supermarket tabloid Weekly World News claimed that, in a press conference Zuckerberg declared that he would shut down the Facebook by Mar 15 and added, “if users want to see their pictures again, I recommend to take them off the internet. They won’t be able to get them back once Facebook goes out of business.”


However, Zuckerberg, on Saturday, Jan 8, confirmed this is an hoax story. He said, “Oh yea, use some common sense. Also, with a company estimated at being worth over $50 billion, why would anyone even think of suddenly shutting it down.” He added, “it would obviously make sense to sell it off rather than just kill it all together.”

In the year 2010 Facebook generated $2 billion dollars revenue, for the company.
Facebook has successfully raised $500 million in a recent round of funding from Goldman Sachs and Russia's Digital Sky Technologies (DST).

Gawd! How can somebody even think of creating such hoax news..I mean..shutting down Facebook means so many lives becoming "lifeless"!!..Anyway..the news did serve its purpose..It was merely a marketing strategy and consequently the site is overloaded with traffic..!!!

FB: HAPPINESS OUTSOURCED!!

Date: 4th Jan, 2011
Place: At my office (about 10:15 A.M.)




I switched on my laptop in haste to check my JMET score (an exam conducted by IITs for the admission into the management courses)..I hurriedly opened the site..submitted my registration number..only to find that I missed it by a whisker..:(..Yes I was sad.. extremely dejected.. I wanted to spend some time with myself to bemoan on my decrepit state..But since I was at my office, I couldn't satisfy my wants.... Anyway..I switched to FB instead..!!

I opened up my account to find that my status message was being liked by 4 people and 3 people had liked my new Display Pic... It made me happy..almost immediately!!!!!...:):)

Everyday when I switch on my laptop to start my work at my office, the first default thing I do is..check my FB account..for the new updates..new notifications.!!..It felicitates me when I find my status message being 'LIKE'd by many people..!! I can't even describe the amount of self satisfaction I acquire to see my blog being 'LIKE'd and 'SHARE'd by my friends..!!:)..I mean seriously..."LIKE"s and good Comments..they just make my day!!..
And it is not just only me..I am pretty sure that FB is having a very similar impact on almost all of you guys too!!

Face Book has come up like a phenomenon in our lives..and today it actually owns the power to impact our emotions..!..So many APPLICATIONS are there to cheer us up!!..So if you don't know what kind of guy/girl you want as your Life Partner..then the FB APLLICATION will definitely help-you-cum-cheer-you up!!.. if you are worried about your marriage, then some application will be telling you "the date of your marriage"..!!!..There is another application which will regularly tell you amazingly placating stuff regarding your "PERSONALITY"..!!...All these things..they do make us happy..don't they??!!...

I recently read an article which said that 750 million pics were uploaded on FB during the New year weekend!!.. Obviously it is not a surprise considering the reach of FB ..but still guys..750 million is in itself a staggering figure..which validates that we love to share our moments of happiness with FB..!

We can say what we want everyone to listen through our status messages..FB gives us the freedom to expand our ideas...to reach even those people whom we probably would never ever would have even dared to talk to!!...FB gives us the power to be what we are not..or what we probably can never be in our real lives!!!..

This phenomenon of disguised happiness is something that we all follow rigorously.. And why not..??... "Someone" is offering me to outsource my Happiness without charging me a single penny..even the foolish of fools will know that this deal is like Grist to the mill..!

"HAPPY" New Year???!! ..

Date : 30th Dec 2010..
Place : Me on my bed..
Time : 10:30 PM (based on memory!)



My cell phone vibrated and I extended my hand to grab my mobile..There was a message saying.." A very Happy New Year to you!"...I smiled and accepted that wish..But that simple message left an intrigued blotch in my memory.."How can the new year be really a HAPPY new year??.."

At every year's end, we get together with our family and friends..we celebrate with all the zeal and rapture and enthuse ourselves wishing a really "NEW" new year.. We begin the new year with New Proclaimed Promises..New Optimistic Approaches towards our lives..New RESOLUTIONS..New hopes..etc. etc. Everything looks so raw and new to us..

But then..gradually the year progresses..we try to walk the line of the NEW IDEAS we had conjured..somehow we walk everywhere but on the line..!!..Our so called resolutions are withheld for a few weeks before they are obliterated in our own disguised "RESOLUTIONS ARE MADE TO BE BROKEN" world!.. And slowly and steadily.. every thing returns back to normal.. and we are back to our normal selves..not optimistic..not exhorted..and obviously not enthused and enraptured..!!.. And then when suddenly we are at the brink of collapse out of our mismanaged miseries..we have another NEW YEAR in the pipeline!!..and the vicious circle of life continues..!!!..

So basically the question is that how can we actually have a new year a "HAPPY NEW YEAR!"??..The only thing which I believe is required is "RESPECTING OURSELVES"..If we can respect our decisions..our promises..then I believe that we can do whatever we want to do.. That is the only way we can make our desires turning into reality..Our resolutions turning into successes.. Otherwise Time is a Cruel Sympathetic, But Not An Empathetic, Friend..! It will bring back the disguised happiness to you again and again..Many of us will be disguise-smitten... successful ones will elude with the Happiness..

Every Year There Will Be A New year.. Let's promise to ourselves to convert it into a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

CHEERS!!
