My best Buddy!

You have been my best buddy all my life and I hate to lose you. You know better about me than myself.

I may or maynot be your priority but you will be, my whole life.


To my best buddy.......

Shake me till you wake me from this bad dream...

When each day passes with the feeling of regret, when each day the mistakes I made in the past haunt......I just keep humming this line. What an advantage it would be if you woke up realizing that it's just a dream and you never did any mistakes. What an opportunity it would be to have the experience of making a mistake but never making one. 

A life of no mistakes, no regrets...............and maybe nothing else. I look back and I see embarrassing mistakes I made and how 'my people' consoled me. I remember how I lost confidence and how I regained it. I can't see a mistake which hardly altered my life. Every blunder I made gave rise to an opportunity, to correct it, to change the thought process and change my attitude towards life. All this is a big picture. But still when the day is really cranky, I still sing, 'Shake me till you wake me from this bad dream...'

The Road Not to be Taken

The other day, I was traveling through the posh localities. There's no way one could be indifferent to the luxuriousness and beauty of those houses. Any saint, at some moment, wonders if he can have one of those. Back into reality. "If I only had enough money!" There are many people who want to become rich soon. Also I've heard of people who attended seminars and read books on  making money, except for the fact that these don't recognize that the organizers are doing exactly the same thing.

Well, to be frank, I know one way of getting rich. No one teaches this in universities. Nor is this passed on from generation to the next in the families. It sounds simple but in fact it's not. It is allowing ourselves  to take a road less taken. Most of the people who are rich didn't get rich just by doing the 9-5 jobs. These are not stereotype software engineers or management graduates. All of them have something in common that differentiates them from the rest. Most of them landed up in the areas where others prefer not to go into. All comes to one point. 'The road not to be taken is the road taken by others".

However, exploring the unknown or the less known is only possible, if and only if, we are ready to lose everything. No non-sense. One can only win anything, if he has the guts to lose everything, and of course, start again.
