Be The Change

Image
Sitting in the balcony, sipping my morning tea on a hot sunny day, having a view on the outside world, I hear the lady from the opposite house leaving for the work grumbling about the traffic who herself owns four distinct vehicles.  The man on the other side of the road moans on the lack of vegetation w hose constructing his third homestead in the middle of plant kingdom.  The boy is heard lecturing on the brutality towards animals who abandoned his own puppy when it was sick.  As I watch the morning sun, the heat enough to kill you, thinking on the adverse effects of Global warming, comes the rain out of nowhere spoiling my tea, wetting my clothes, I ask myself, "Why the heck did it had to rain now ? " . We are born crying, live complaining and die disappointed. We complain about things, we are not willing to change. As I recollect a quote by our Mahatma, "Be the change that you wish to see in the world" .

What's all In a Name ?

What’s all in a name? Every lovable idiot is never called with their real name. Take your example, how many do you have? Even your parents who gave you your name, will never call you by your real name. At home you will have a pet name, at school you will have a nickname, at college most probably a bad name. After marriage you get a surname. After death it becomes a pen name and if you are famous, you get a stage name.  At the end you forget your own real name which you have to rename. So, What is your name?

New Vs Old Generation

Image
Often we hear comments and critics about the new generation from the older ones. They laugh at our generation but fail to realize you raised this generation. Being a new generation kid I always wanted to justify my part with appropriate reasoning.  Here are the 10 reasons why the Old generations must pursue the newer gens’ 1) We live our life for ourselves and not for the sake of others. 2) We ignore advice's, and take opinions. 3) We break relationships, bu t not hearts. 4) We don’t say or argue, we act. 5) We criticize the people but we appreciate the thoughts. 6) Normal is not our concept, because we think different. 7) Thank us; we are addicted to Facebook and smart phones and not to drugs and alcohols. 8) You may hate us for our looks, we don’t care, attitude we say. 9) We may not be perfect but at least we don't fake identity. 10) The last but not the least, we are the Super cool generation.

Fine or No Fine

Happened to come across this. Guess they meant if you don't park your vehicle and if you don't smoke you got to pay the fine. Incredible Kerala !

What Money Can Buy

They say money don't buy you everything, well .... When you are born in a family where  # Discipline  and  # Punctuality  comes before Food and Sleep, the youth foresee you as an epitome of accomplishment. Unfortunately some never learn, so do I. Being a consistent late comer in school, college and functions except my wedding (Glad I didn't made the groom wait so that he could spot someone from the crowd), I repeated my late routine to the office. The initial acts  were warnings, least they knew I was accustomed to it. Later the month end, when you are paid with the meagre salary that is enough only to drive office for the next 20 days, must say money may not buy you everything but it sure teaches you something, at least to be punctual. "Better late than never, but never late is better" .
