Quo Vadis?

I saw one idiot riding his motorbike on the pavement on the wrong side of the road, a little further yet another idiot made a U-turn in the middle of a flyover. I wondered for a brief moment if there is merit in being good, when everything around is bad? I always believed that what is inside makes the person and not the outside and despite people doing bad to you, you do what is right because you are in the right. Anyway this belief was mildly shaken as mentioned before. A little further I received the daily verse by SMS from a friend it read, “Let us not grow tired of doing good, for in due time we shall reap our harvest, if we don’t give up.” – Gal 6:9 . If you sow a bad seed what you get during the harvest is good for nothing. If you sow a good seed what you get during harvest is useful to you and others. Never give up doing good. My faith restored I reached office with a smile. PS: I just realized that I have crossed 200 posts, this is No. 201! Its been an eventful 28 months of per...

A great advertisement that has been been redusted in time for Feb 14th. I think it really captures the spirit of the day. Kudos to the script writer who came up with the words that the diamond does not know your age. Beautiful. To all the naysayers including a certain joker who threatens to marry off couples and some fanatical students who are planning similar acts, think its time you guys get a job or a girl. But the big question is why is 14th feb tickling their butts? Have they never gone to the Marina beach any day of the year? Listen you love less jokers, to people in love any day is Valentine's day, it just don't matter. To sign off, give a little love, it is always in short supply in the world and no, you dont have to wait for Feb 14th.

I am getting so irritated with these goons who are now policing the cities with their warped code of morality. They have topped the list of my most hated people including, bad drivers, uncouth auto driving goons, public spitters and pissers, you get the general idea. The reason they abound is that many of us slept when the elections happened or we voted for communal criminals to power. 26/11 brought an outpouring of grief, outrage, fear, disgust and utter revulsion for the perpetrators and many were spontaneous in lighting candles and having protest marches across the country. Very good. I did neither, I confess. But to what avail? Have any of us considered doing something against these goons who are trying to find new reasons to kill peace? From pub culture, which is crazy by itself, if people think that women don’t drink pay attention next time you read about a hooch tragedy, the liquour is often made, sold and consumed by women also, but always in a minority. So if you have a proble...

Watch the video and spot the many press reporters running around in the melee trying to get the best pictures. It is reported that many press reporters were at Amnesia before the goons landed and took up vantage points. Maybe they were going to Amnesia or they had amnesia it never struck any of them to call the cops and avert this incident, but then they would be loosing precious TRP's. Wonder if they would have done the same if their girls / sisters / daughters were in the same situation. What was shocking was one woman from the NCW blaming the pub owner for lax security and almost absolving the goons of blame. If the NCW is for women maybe the members and more importantly that woman should watch ads like this and think what they last did when they saw someone on a glamour...

Sometimes your mind drifts off on a tangent spurred by the most innocuous of thoughts but the end results are worth the effort. Was washing my hand with soap and as I observed the soap bar I wandered back in time… I remember the prank that I used to play on others in school having been the victim initially I decided I should share the joy. Step 1: Find an unsuspecting soul willing to explore the latest personality mapping / or astrological mumbo jumbo for themselves. Step 2: Draw a grid on the palm of the victim’s hand (the more intricate, the better) Step 3: Ask a set of pertinent questions like “A favourite person of the opposite sex…” Step 4: Write the answer somewhere in the grid and proceed till you complete most of the spaces except for one small section. Step 5: Look sufficiently thoughtful and ensure that you write as randomly as possible. Step 6: Ask the killer question, “What soap do you use?” Step 7: Write the answer on the vacant space, start scoring out your labours till y...

Have you ever wondered if you were mature enough to handle the challenges that life suddenly throws at you or even worse the challenges that you know will come one day in the future? Have you ever realized that silently you have actually attained the maturity and seem to possess the skills to handle such challenges; skills which seem to have mysteriously crept out of nowhere. Have you ever wondered that the biggest challenge is no longer big once it is overcome? Is this what we call aging or the better sounding maturing? Or is it nature’s graceful pruning and crafting of mankind? If this is indeed nature’s pruning, have we become good looking bonsais or scrubs, maybe even a banyan… Have you noticed that when we start to drive (for good drivers only), the first thing we do even before we start the car is to check and adjust if necessary the rear view mirrors? Do we actually use our internal rear view mirrors as we cruise down the road of life? Lastly how did two years go by so fast, it ...
