My Timing Is Perfect

Today the talk of the town from where I come is - which Bschool to get graduated. Or which university and stream of qualification will fetch me a decent job. Would I be eligible with my current score basis my Segmentation by the government of SC/ST/OC/MBC/BC etc.. Its race time everywhere, catch the bus or do not miss your flight. But the question that keeps coming to my mind often – ‘what is my final destination’? what is my dream? What is my passion? Am i having the talent towards the passion of life? Is not both passion and the talent that can scale up to hights? – if my thought is right; Then why are we working reverse? Why do i spend hours and hours of time correcting my weakness rather than sharpening my strengths. I actually love painting, sketching creating new things – basically art. But i am no good at it, no where near any standards of basis, will i excel it in? The answer is NO. Then i should enjoy seeing others making a good job out of it, and find out...

Funny the way human brain works. As a child, we fear elders who would question us for whatever goes wrong. Could be parents or caretakers when we break something or do something out of the ordinary. Not always do we get a reciprocation to our fears. As we grow, we are built in with fear about the supernatural. If we do something which is negative in life, then god will leave and devil will rule us. The two stages adolescent age and a new born, there is no fear of anything. A complete man or woman., then take charge of their own life. There is lot of fear in todays world that people live with, and yet enact as though they are the tough ones in life. But take a cool ride of life, do not bother of any others, till they have to answer someone with POWER/SIZE. SO does size really matter? What made me write like this today? There have been many occasions in my professional life, I have noted. People work hard and some people work smart. Purely to impress others with great designations and gr...

For a very long time many researchers are trying to analyze human brain and how it functions. Well, today we have some documentations, while history only left strong beliefs and is even today called tradition and blind faith. Faith has to be felt, it cannot be explained. I rarely dream, and I ask many questions on my dreams with elders in my family. I used to be surprised with the explanations that was given to me for the dreams I had till date. I ask where I am clueless about my dreams. I hardly dream, but when I do, I want to know the linkages. When I am explained, I do question in all combinations. Still behind my head I register every word. And I get zapped for the kind of research that has been already done in the past. People of the olden golden days today in India are taking away the secrets with themselves. I want to understand more, I do not know how much more I can gain knowledge from them. If you dream of someone dying = you are to hear news of a marriage in the family. One ...

In every walk of life there is a tiny bit of assumption all of us make. Have we ever realized if that is has worked towards or against us? Well, assumption is some sort of perception we make before we see the actual end state. At work, I have seen making assumptions when there is a proposal towards a project plan or anything that is yet to be achieved. This is normally used to ensure there is a backup created depending on certain assumptions towards the final outcome. At economies to scale, there is lots of assumptions for the financial state of affairs and growth patterns of a country. In our personal life, we also make assumptions. Unless it is going to be for a positive approach; my suggestion to you is never assume things. Always ask. Get it clarified. There have been few very close people who have given me feedback; on how body language pass on more communication that the words by itself. Similarly, when we assume things (unless you are an Oscar award winner) I guess it shows out ...

Yes, many people come in our lives and many go.. but only some steal a place in our heart. Time heals us they say, yet I am unable to digest that it’s a year now that someone close to many of us is not around us physically. I am sure she is there next to each of us, just the way she used to be physically far yet too close to us. And blessing us with all the goodness for us and wishing that all our good wishes to come true. I do beleive that pure souls always wish us the best of best in our lives.

In a cultural and heritage driven country like ours, a woman is expected to be a virgin till her marriage. This was one of the primary reasons why in early days and in the sacred scripts the girl is given in marriage before her attaining her puberty. Every mantra uttered in hand of giving away a daughter in marriage to a man is in conjunction that the girl is as pure and yet to attain her puberty so that she is a complete virgin. That is the reason there were child marriages. Today’s wedding does not have any relevance to the manthras, except for the sapthapathi because we do not follow the rest of the given tradition of giving away the girl in marriage before her puberty. Well, so what is expected in a typical Indian family from the woman who is newly wed? She is expected to loose her virginity – of course and next she is expected to always understand and mellow down in all facets of life post her wedding in the new home. All these were possible in the then and golden olden days. So w...
