HAKUNA MATATA


There are so many ways in which people die every day for real; murder, accident, disease et cetera et cetera. Yet, we always manage to brew up new ways of suicide; actually the technique is always the same; only the weapons differ. CONFUSED???
Just go back on your day and count, how many times did you make your heart race for that unfinished work assignment or make it skip a beat for that loosened friendship today? I bet everyone has a positive integer flashing in their head by now. Isn’t that suicide; shortening your own life while running after the immaterial materialistic pleasure? You killed the precious time you could have used instead to thank ‘The Almighty’ for having all the good in your life; the time you wasted in the company of trauma and curses.
There was one thing I profoundly remember from the movie “17 Again”; apart from the overwhelmingly handsome heart throb Zac Effron of course; that “When you are young, everything seems like the end of the world but it really isn’t”. I know a whole lot of you would say that you are not that young; but believe me, if you were as young as the 6 year old next door, you wouldn’t have felt the need to read this.
The fact is, life is like the magicians knot, the harder you try to untangle it, the faster it strangles you. The key to that life you dream of is to pull the rope gently not by the motive of untying but by the motive of solving the mystery. It’s a very basic principle Lord Krishna shared in his teachings – ‘Do your duty without dwelling over the outcomes’.

The Unknown weather

Last night, as I was going through some random web browsing and basking in the intellect of other people's knowledge, I heard them again, the raindrops, they were bashing against the earth, as if charging towards the ground with all their might, but losing their will to fight right before the final blow. If you have seen those couples fight which have just entered a relationship, you will realize that they build up a lot of anger in themselves a lot of times, but by the time it all comes out, they understand that they can't afford to lose the person in front of them, Just as they are about to get into a massive fight, one of them will calm down as the other will stand in front with a calm face. Although this time, I think the earth has had quite a few such fights with the rains. It's already October, they need to get their crap together. We are all set to wait for some winter already. I am not normally a winter loving person, but the continuous rains don't help mu...

KEEP THAT COOL

Storming through the windy desserts, dodging the sand dunes that try to engulf me into the sandy darkness, fighting every second- the urge to give into the mirages that fiddle with whatever is left of my sanity, I constantly tread forward with mincing steps towards the wet sands of the beach. Confused? Don’t be. Although this was just a part of my dream, it applies so much more to our constant struggle to live. There isn’t one person, who doesn’t look up to the sun, with legs buried in sand - knee-deep and eyebrows showering the eyelids with salt water, making them heavier every passing moment. Some of us kneel down and let the scorching problems evaporate every drop of life in us; some on the other hand, gather themselves up with all possible strength and march towards their personal paradise. Believe me, I’m no different, sometimes I manage to reach the mountains and beaches, sometimes I do fail, but I have learned from all the desserts that heat outside is ineffective if you ar...

Worker Bees

Worker Bees They say, statistics never lie; so, I have decided to fall back on them. As per a random website that I landed on with the help of Google, 77,000 jobs were created in India in 2016. Yet, we are still struggling with low employment rate, the sword of lay-offs over our head, and the fear of losing the rat-race (since everyone calls it that, although even I am part of it and nowhere close to winning it). Another side of the coin is that India saw the rise of start-ups with immense acceleration in 2016. It has been reported that in 2016, there were 19000 start-ups in India. The number of active investors in India has doubled. The growth was so astounding that the government had to acknowledge it and create a separate entity called ‘Startup India’. It may seem that the general paradigm in India is shifting from looking for jobs to creating them; but, we are still creating jobs with the start-ups and people are happy with start-ups more because of this factor,...
