We’ve lost so much into money making that we have forgotten our own identity. We see nothing of more value except money. I should get money I don’t care what it takes me to make it. I’ve least to bother about others or the world around me. If I plan to ponder on the society surrounding me for a minute I foresee no benefits, advantages and interests which can pay me back handsomely, therefore, why to waste time; I better use it for accumulating wealth. Once I’ve enough money, people start seeing me as an affluent; I’ll become charitable. I may open or encourage some NGOs or other welfare organizations and have my name in the books of the most humanist, merciful and caring people worldwide. Or let me own planes, islands, rivers, mountains and lands first, I’ll think of all pitiful things i.e. poor, needy, crumpled and crippled later. I, myself, am very much needy currently as I still need to account for a trip to the moon. If there is a very beautiful place on the moon I should own it. ...

It's very hard to reciprocate feelings in a relationship. It's almost impossible to master the art of reciprocation. This is because no two persons can think alike all time in terms of momentary or static thoughts. It's surprising to learn that even though people live in the same environment, place, culture and have upbringing etc. in the same house, yet they will differ every now and then in their thinking, feelings, emotions, attitudes and approach towards the life. All siblings will have different kind of respect for each other irrespective of their age, even though they are twins, they tend not to match in their feelings or emotions. Emotions are felt not perceived. The one who can master the emotions can control the world around. We seldom understand the real feelings of others attached to us or an object. We very often mistake to have understood it all. We go on with our perception or assumption caring little of the actual feeling that might need a comple...

Fate is a very interesting subject to talk about for so many reasons. There are many school of thoughts, philosophies, myths, beliefs, conventions and cultures that we encounter everyday. All have their own ways of looking at it. Their approach towards it is sometimes nostalgic, sometimes exulting, and sometimes indifferent. Some people believe in Fate and luck, others don't. There is a lot said and written about it as well. Almost all the paradoxical thoughts and arguments are nicely addressed. However, they have not yet been able to uproot it from the minds of the people. People are still lingering with it. We hear the phrase that man is creator of his own destiny. Luck or fate is a weapon and pretext of the weak and the poor. There is a saying that hard work is pioneer to luck. All the workaholic people ought to be lucky then (healthy, wealthy and wise), shouldn't they? Do you really find all the diligent ones prosperous? Do you think everyone gets paid his/her due deserv...

Several times in life we see a very big contrast in so many things i.e. when we want to be recognized no one cares & knows us and when almost everyone knows us, we hide ourselves. I've been trying to understand it for a long time now. I see nothing except the paradox that there is no more love until it hurts. We seldom notice the facts behind a dream and reality. A dream takes us in a visionary world which is adorable and heavenly. I've hardly encountered anybody who is not beguiled by this opulent planet of mind and heart. Some people call it oblivion. Whatever you call it, it's the only world where you can be by yourself. Here you can meditate, play, sing, paint, enact, teach, preach, lead, follow, order, surrender, love, hate, admire, criticize, live and die the way you want, like and recommend. Once you're out of it, you're in the real world. The reality is completely different than the dream. It conforms your existence. It sets values for you. It's ...

We struggle in life for so many things and very often we realize that we would not have opted for or asked for or wished for, because the trial and hardship that goes into achieving something; is far more than the value of the achievement. This is a well known fact that nothing can be accomplished without hard work and perseverance. Nevertheless, can we ignore today's truth that who can yell (regardless what it is); can sell. Be it, tangible or intangible stuff. Not only we see the smart people getting ahead but also see them getting crafty for petty means over a period of time. We also see a new world of it's own where certain people have their own likes and dislikes. We're trespassers if we mistakenly pass by them. We should understand that it's useless to get into such shoes which designed only for a familiar group. Prove your worth only when you're prepared and only to them who you think may recognize. It will be of little use if you enter the self-enjoying...

Life has a lot to teach to all of us. We subconsciously keep learning & growing. As we age, we are compelled to undertake responsibilities, whether, we wish or not; we're under perpetual pressure either of morality, society, emotions or intelligence.
