Life... beyond "the past"

If ever, I meet you,
We will walk down
the memory lanes
talk about 'those days'
and life after 'those days'

Aren't we living in "present"?

believe in destiny?... think again

Found this beautiful article on web: Destiny During a momentous battle, a Japanese general decided to attack even though his army was greatly outnumbered. He was confident they would win, but his men were filled with doubt. On the way to the battle, they stopped at a religious shrine. After praying with the men, the general took out a coin and said, "I shall now toss this coin. If it is heads, we shall win. If it is tails we shall lose." "Destiny will now reveal itself." He threw the coin into the air and all watched intently as it landed. It was heads. The soldiers were so overjoyed and filled with confidence that they vigorously attacked the enemy and were victorious. After the battle. a lieutenant remarked to the general, "No one can change destiny." "Quite right," the general replied as he showed the lieutenant the coin, which had heads on both sides.

I thought, he will consider me an absurd ( that’s too much of negative thinking I know ). He was very calm when I told about my thoughts. In a composed tone, he said that he agrees with me ( I am shocked ) and he showed me the way. Next day, I took my first step. A basic decision on the amount I was willing t...

I need to discover

I need to discover...... my daily local to my office gives me more insight to life than the books or articles I read. Yesterday, I was reading article on the 'Mastery of emotions' wherein how an attitude makes difference in ones life. Today, its about this kid (not to mention kids are always cute and lovable) and his mother. The first look at the kid and his mother was they hail from poor family. The kid must be a year old and crying with pain and mother tried to calm him down. I thought its normal and didn't bother to look beyond. I kept chanting my daily prayers without much diversions. As my station neared, I went to the door. Its my habit to stand first and get out of the local, as early to avoid the rush on the over bridge (all efforts to save my 5 minutes). The mother was standing behind me with the kid. She wanted to get off at the same station as mine. As I turned to the kid, I saw sparkle of mischief in those red eyes and as I turned more towards him I noticed that...
