The Results are in!
"Harry the results are in!" shouted Mom while holding the newspaper in one hand and giving a hard push to the sleepy head.
"So what do I do?" came a torpid reply.
Confused mom stared at him in bewilderment.
Gulped in order to control her temper, and tried to speak softly while avoiding to break off, "Well, give me your number, and let's check if you cleared."
"Sure, first let me catch up

Turning Point of Life
Someone once asked me, "What was the turning point of your life?"
“What's meant to be will always find a way.”
― Trisha Yearwood
For me, it was leaving the corporate job and become a nobody from a somebody. Sure, it was a tough decision. But that helped me discover my passion, interests and realize what ticked me off.
These days there are many of us who hardly understand the reason for

The Power Hungry!
Move over Robert Mugabe, Bashar-Al-Assad, Moammar Qaddafi, Than Shwe, Fidel Castro amongst many who were classified as worst dictators of the world.
Power is potent and can make anybody toxic thus, allowing an individual to tread a path that can lead to becoming unruly, boisterous, rambunctious and then this leads to being categorized as the worst dictator!
Nah! you are not to be blamed!

Wordless Wednesday #69
The above picture is a gutter being surrounded by pebbles so that the soil does not erode off.
This same analogy can be applied to our mind....We need to have it protected 24*7 by being aware of what we think so that our negative thoughts do not ruin our action.
Mantra for today: Safeguard your mind since that is the key to your karma bank.

2AM
The clock struck 2am.
As I dragged myself from the couch, after saving my work. Mind was still occupied by my character, Lennard, who was trying hard to cope with his wife's demise.
I was taking baby steps towards my bedroom while trying to find a solution on how to help him cope, just then I heard a loud thumping and pounding of the pipes. Frightened, I ran towards the noise. Peeped out

A Fall and a Rise
It was the 20th century, I was a high schooler and my parents had enrolled me in a Karate Academy. Self-defense was numero uno even at that time especially since I used to love going on trekking expeditions with groups. I had to become self-sufficient and thus started the journey of sweating and grinding those teeth and blowing out air while furiously yet with elegance and swiftness move my

We are welcomed with fog each morning. This heavy mist reduces visibility leaving us all perplexed as we drive with caution.
The same analogy could be applied to our lives.
We don't know our future, thus ought to drive our wheels of life carefully, meticulously and with awareness since we don't know what could hit us the next moment.
Mantra for today: Life could go wasted if not lived with
