The Precept for the Day:- We carry within us, the wonders we seek around us My thoughts: Isn't it strange? We humans are always in constant pursuit of one thing or the other. we are always in need of something. I have come across people who often say , " I cant find happiness anywhere", "I don't think i have the capacity/ability to do this work" etc. Those people, little do they realize that they already have what they need, in themselves. We often compare ourselves with the successful people and sulk about the inability of us to be like them. My question is, Why do we think like that? What makes us think like that? In what way are we inferior to them? Did they land from outer space galaxies or did they just pop out of nowhere in earth? We all have been blessed with the same abilities despite the physical differences. It's not that the successful people are blessed with a much powerful brain. The only difference is that, the successful people know...

I just read the Introduction part of R.J Palacio's  365 Days of Wonder.    Something in it made me to pick up my Laptop,Open Blogger and write this post. Trust me, a 'Book', making me to do this, ain't a simple matter. This book consists of 365 precepts (One for each day of the year). Precepts means, " A General rule intended to regulate behavior or thought."  A thought occurred to me. Since this book consists of 365 precepts, why don't i write an essay about a particular precept everyday ?! For ever precept, I would write my views and opinions regarding it. Writing a Post a day doesn't seem to be much of a problem. So, why don't I start right away ? My thoughts on the First precept given in the book will be discussed in the next post.

Who am I ? Why was I born ? What is my duty? Why should I live? Ever wondered why you were born in this world ? Do you even know what you are supposed to do in your life? I don't know how far my post will create an impression in your mind. You may find it good and interesting  or you may even find it to be lame and pointless. But I wish it triggers your mind to think for the betterment. ____ There are 3 most important stages in a persons life. 1. Youth - Where one usually dreams  a lot about his future. 2. Middle Age - Where one usually finds himself drowned in work, family etc 3. Old Age - Where one retires from work and spends the rest of his life happily by relaxing. Lets first talk about the Youth age. This age comprises of the teenagers and post teenage persons (20-30) Generally, Such persons dream a lot ! Yes, they  dream a lot about their  future. So how exactly do these people define their "...

It's been several eons since I last posted in this blog No matter how many promises I make to myself, to post stuff In this blog, I fail miserably to keep up them. Lately, I have been under enormous stress. Yes, You guessed it . Work Pressure. Just one week into my Second Year and I already feel the heat. I have to go to college 6 days a week and the remaining one day, Sunday, they give me Million assignments to write and also conduct tests on Monday for which I have to study. Looking at the the Positive side, I feel happy that I have so much of work to do and I secretly wish to God that He will keep me Busy like this all the time. It's perhaps the only way I could distract myself from the Heart wrenching episode that happened in my Life. Also, Thanks to the Books which keep me occupied all the time. It's the only way I could escape the Horrible reality . Books have been my true companions ever since That  Happened . They remind that it isn't the end . Every time...

Happiness is something which can't be defined. It is a Feeling.  But I don't think people see it that way.  People of today have changed a lot. Their Preferences,  opinions,  Perspectives have changed. When I was a little kid, I used to run/roam around my Mom, Smiling and laughing. I din't have a reason to smile. I just had a huge smile plastered on my face and I was Happy. But as I grew up, I started to associate happiness with Things . When I set my sight on a Cool toy or a play thing, I pester my mom so much, till she obliges to buy me that. I wanted to buy that, as I thought it would make me happy. When I was a kid, I was Happy for No reason. But as I grew up, I needed reasons to be happy. During My teenage, Like everyone else of my age group,  I too had crush, Love etc on the opposite sex. I was attracted to the other person. I started to fantasize about her. I imagined myself living a life with her. I was literally mad on her . But Wh...
