Keep It Sweet and Simple!!
I can understand the question of uncertainty about what this article is going to deal with, but that uncertainty will no longer exist if you can pick the capital letters of the title and make a word out of it!! It made your lips extend and present that gorgeous smile right?? Yes, such is the beauty of kiss. The very existence of human is justified only by the love he/she showers towards his/her fellow beings. Kiss is one of the most powerful weapons to make someone feel that you really care for them and you wanna be with them for ever.
But, this beautiful word which made you smile at the start, is viewed as sign of limitless lust now-a-days. I don't understand the reason behind it. I used the word limitless lust in the line previous to the one before because according to me there is nothing wrong in being lustful. If a person is standing on the road side and a beautiful girl employs her cat walk and crosses him. He doesn't want to admire that just because he doesn't want to be lustful. Is it not so?? According to me, what is the difference between him and the tree when both are standing tall on the road side and showing no reaction?? There is nothing wrong to be lustful but it is only the limitless lust which will ditch us.
Hug and Kiss are two ecstatic feelings which will make the other person return those again to you immediately. For those statisticians, research says that human spend 2 - 3 days of his entire life time in kissing. A human, who has an average life time of 60 years, spend just 3 days in kissing. Doesn't that show the lack of love in the world?? According to me, maximum of those 3 days would have been the early part of his childhood and the first few months after marriage. This is the ultimate reason for stress and eventually heart attack.
We didn't protect our beautiful heart with love and hence it was attacked. You give a crore to me on one hand and a lovely girl, who can be with me through life and shower her love every second of my life, on the other hand and you ask me to select one. I would ditch that one crore only to hug the sweet heart of my life because she worths a crore each second for me!!
Indian Politics League -- Won't this be the correct abbreviation for IPL??
IPL is certainly one of the exciting tournaments in the world. It is exciting not only because of the titillation it brings on the field but also the googlies off the field!! It is top-rated not only because of the money involved but also the ecstasy it brings to the sport. But, is that sport played in a sportive manner?? Are we spoiling sport by mixing it with distasteful ingredients??
The amalgamation has to be perfect in order to ripe a better result. The sport was already spoiled by bringing in glamour in the name of cheer girls. Now, the entering of politics and power into the sport would not make cricket a Fair Play!! Yes, statistics says the amount of people who watch cricket has increased with the advent of IPL. That is great news if it is not for controversies they watch cricket. I believe that is true in most cases. I believe most of us would not have been aware of sweat equity before IPL 2010!! Why I say this is such is the domination of dramas off the field when compared to the action happening on those 22 yards.
How many film makers and actors and actresses use this IPL as a promoting strategy?? We can start counting and I am sure we will not end up finishing!! Just because Indians are passionate about this sport, people are over exploiting them. Politicians slog their way into cricket just to use this stage to assert their poly tricks.
They are in the process of serious exploitation of this beautiful game. Unless, they stop bringing politics into this, we can never watch a glorious cover drive without a match fix!!
Splits Villa – A Reality BEEP Show!!
Reality shows in reality capture most of the busy hours in
television. One such show telecasted in M TV is this ‘Splits Villa’. On an
aimless graze of channels my eyes and hands halted on this particular programme.
And the fortunate thing is that it was the grand finale of that show. And
before the finale there were some other auxiliaries like the losers
interrogating the two pairs of finalists (to increase the TRP rating).
) the words I was able to hear amidst the beeps were
“I would never ever ask such a question on a national television (But such a
question was telecasted on the national television!!). Here comes the grand
finale! The finalists can win only if they show faith and trust in their
partner. To show these qualities what was the adventure arranged? The guy
should hang upside down with hands stretched and the girl should catch both of
his hands from a distance by a long jump. Great test for love! At last they are
justifying the humbug slogan, “Love is a game”. Such reality shows make the
youth believe, “Start with friendship, go for a date and if possible love (the
so called love)”.
Ever heard of Sour Grapes??
This article is not going to instruct you about what types of grapes you need to eat or give you some diet tips!! English, as every one of us knows, is such a beautiful language. The reason we say it is beautiful because of the Idioms and phrases it has got. Will you believe if I say each and every phrase has a story behind it!! One such phrase which is used widely when talking about the attitudes of people is Sour Grapes.
What does it mean and how it refers attitude?? Sour grapes refer to an attitude of pretending to despise something because we can't have it ourselves. In other words, an attitude of hating something just because we can't get it. That is quite interesting isn't it?? How many sour grapes have we seen in the passage of our life?? 
Don't bother counting, leave it to mathematicians!!
Don't bother counting, leave it to mathematicians!! The most amazing part of this phrase is the story behind it. The source is the tale of the fox and the grapes, one of the famous fables of Aesop, a Greek storyteller of the 6th century BC. The story goes like this. The fox tries to reach a bunch of juicy grapes hanging from a vine high above its head. After making several attempts, it gives up and stalks off, saying "I am sure the grapes are sour anyway"
Nevertheless, that fox is good at consoling himself. Isn't it??
Recycling at its very best!!
We are in a situation where the demand exceeds the supply. So, reusing and recycling plays a critical role in todays arena.We are looking for every possible means of alternative energy and converting waste to energy. Recently, I came across the initiatives of N-Viro International Corporation which licences its technology to municipalities and private companies. The baseline of this corporation is to convert waste water sludge and other bio organic wastes into bio mineral agricultural and soil enrichment products with rich market value. This is by far the best method considering the huge increase in population everyday and the depletion of resources day by day. This technology treats the bio solids which are nothing but the residual solids left over after the treatment of municipal wastewater. The sales has gone in excess of 40 million dollars and this initiative is worth to be considered in the modern era
Beware of Monkeying around folks, there are bizarre laws to catch you!!
There are lots of exciting things present around the world. Every region has its own special features and some bizarre features as well. The laws are no exception and it is interesting to skim through some of the laws around the country. I thought of listing some bizarre laws around the world and I am sure this will your lips extended!!
In France, it is forbidden to call a pig Napoleon. In Vermont, women must obtain written permission from their husbands to wear false teeth!! If this is interesting, how about the one which follows?? In Singapore, chewing gum is illegal. Beware folks, you can be penalized heavily for that!!
In an era of globalization, how about the law which follows?? In Burma, it is against the law to access the Internet. Anyone violating it faces prison. It looks bizarre and interesting for us, but are we loosing some of the best brains because of this is the question which needs a spare of thought. I am sure criminals would be happy to be prisoned in Denmark because in Denmark, it is not against the law to escape from prison!!
If you are in Providence, Rhode Island, better get your tooth paste and tooth brush before Sunday because selling tooth paste and tooth brush to the same customer on Sunday is illegal there!!
How about this for a finishing touch?? In Eureka, Nevada, if you have moustache, it is against the law for you to kiss a women!!
Yet another Universal Truth!!
The universal truth to be uttered for the present day is "BE UNIVERSAL". But the immediate question to this statement would be "What or when do you consider a thing universal?
A multinational concern concerns the Womens' day as a festival with cultural activities. The word "multinational" comprises cultural diversties and diverse departments. Such a function should be organised so as to reach the masses in a massive way. And the function was a grand success as it accomplished this motive. How can this be possible without universal minds?? In fact, most of the songs were from albums which were hardly heard. The spectators were not dumb but participated fanatically in the program through.
The unanswered question in the first paragraph is nearing an answer now. A mind is universal if it reacts to something which pierces its heart and energizes all its cells. And a thing is universal if it makes most of the masses react.
The universal truth again is "NOTHING IS UNIVERSAL WITHOUT A UNIVERSAL MIND"
Are we going belly up as IT Professionals??
The answer for the question posted as a title of this article has to be "Yes" irrespective of whether we take the literal meaning of "Go Belly Up" ( which is the ballooning of our abdomen!!) or we take the phrasal meaning of "Go Belly Up" ( which is undergoing total financial failure!!). It is not a financial failure but a failure which can hardly be compensated with the help of finance. What failure are we talking about?? Or by earning lakhs of rupees per month, are we failing in any way?? By now, questions like these would have taken its incarnation in your beautiful mind. The answer for all such questions is "Yes". It is hard to accept but difficult to ignore either.
We miss to enjoy the most beautiful things in this even more beautiful world. We live a life of darkness and why I say so? We get up before sunrise and go to office and get locked in a tiny cubicle and switch on the computer and keep our eyes busy seeing that for hours!! We are too busy to take a break even which further restricts our exposure to the outside world. We return home after the sunset (sometimes in midnight!!) and sleep and the process continues like a chain reaction but the difference is this is even more dangerous than a chain reaction!! We are never exposed to any things (leave alone sunlight) other than the processor in front of us. Aren't we living in darkness??
We search for money which is not bad, but why do we search for it always?? We don't have to pay for enjoying some of the most beautiful moments. How many of us have gone for a walk early morning and enjoyed the sunrise?? Had diabetes not been there, we will not find many people walking!! How many of us allowed ourselves to mesmerize in music?? "Mozart's symphony was one of the secrets of my success. Every time I hear that beautiful piece of music, I get a new idea", Einstein said. Such is the power of music and we don't have to pay for hearing it. We don't have to pay for spending time with our family, and we will not be charged much for reading good books!!
But we work all day, chase money all day and we lose a wonderful day in the process although we would have gained lakhs on that particular day. I got a message two days back which summarizes everything:
"Life was much simpler when Apple and Blackberry were just fruits"
Has Spirituality become a tool for Perverts??
The hot news at least for the past two days was the exhibition of perversion from a man who masqueraded himself as one of the spiritual leaders in India. He has centers virtually at all places and he has many serious disciples all over the world which is even more shocking. The name of the man is "Nithyananda". For some of the people who don't know about this news, this man Nithyananda was alleged to have wrong relationship with an actress and his pervert feelings towards her was shown in a famous News Channel all over the world. This is not the first time this is happening and this will not be the last.
This incident certainly raises some serious doubts in my mind and one of those is given as the title of this article. Yes. Has Spirituality become a tool for Perverts?? It is one of the easiest ways of performing crime because once they become well established as a spiritual person, people stay behind them as their strength which hides all the illegal activities they perform. Only few exploit the spirituality as the way I mentioned above. But what happens as a result is it affects the whole community.
Who is the root cause for it?? Certainly us. We believe everything without questioning it. If someone says he has got enormous powers and he can rectify all our problems, we believe that. We don't reason why and how and the problem starts there. As they say, common sense is the most uncommon thing in the world. We encourage these least rated fellows and at the end of the day we are blaming him for cheating us.
Think about it. Who cheated us?? Is it he? or we ourselves?
Stand up and Salute the Batting Genius!!
February 24th might not have been celebrated for any special occasion till now, but from now on it would not be an exaggeration to celebrate that day as an "Exhibition of Batting Skills". I have written couple of posts about the artistry involved in the beautiful game of Cricket or for any game for that matter. Cover drive is considered to be the most gorgeous stroke in Cricket. We all can play cover drive but how many of us can play this gorgeous stroke even when all 9 fielders are there inside the circle on the off side. Such is the artistry involved in this game.
I have been privileged to witness some great batting from Brian Lara when he scored 400, Mathew Hayden when he scored 380 and Hashim Amla when he displayed the power of concentration against India not so long ago. If we miss to concentrate even for a single ball, we can only find our stumps going for a toss and that is the beauty of this beautiful game. Why I say all these?? Because, the Master Blaster Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar batted throughout the innings and remained not out at 200 on the wonderful evening of February 24th. I have not seen him giving any chances what so ever during his innings. Concentrating continuously for three and half hours and score runs even after completing 20 years of International Cricket, he has to be the man whom we can look upon and say "Oh, this is how Passionate I should be in whatever I do and it is certain that I will break the record at some point of time"
I was taken by surprise when he crossed 200, not because he has made yet another record, but how can he be so greedy even after breaking so many records. But then I realized, even Greediness is good when it is mixed with Hard work and Passion!!
