" I feel as if I have two wolves fighting in my heart. One wolf is full of jealousy, hate, indifference and unproductive, a true symbol of negativity; other, a loving, compassionate one who is always keen to give his best, a symbol of positivism. And if you ask me who would win then my answer would be: the one I feed .” -Anon.

How To React
How does one need to react when whole world is against you. I believe in myself and I know the time has its influence on all. It is the one which got to decide as what needs to be given to whom and that too when. I am even sure that whatever happens is for good and there would be hidden reason behind it, which only comes to light with the passage of time. But not sure as how to react, when you really don’t want to hear from others. I know, it requires courage to digest after hearing and comparatively much more strength is required to act sensibly.

Impressive Questions and Answers..... ....
Question 1: You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy night, it's raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop, and you see three people waiting for a bus:
· An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
· An old friend who once saved your life.
· The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.
Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in your car?
This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application.
* You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first;
* Or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect chance to !pay him back.
* However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.
The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer. Guess what was his answer?
He simply answered:
"I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams."
Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations. Never forget to "Think Outside the Box."
Question 2: What will you do if I run away with your sister?"
The candidate who was selected answered " I will not get a better match for my sister than you sir"
Question 3: Interviewer (to a student girl candidate) - What is one morning you woke up & found that you were pregnant.
Girl - I will be very excited and take an off, to celebrate with my husband.
Normally an unmarried girl will be shocked to hear this, but she managed it well. Why I should think it in the wrong way, she said later when asked
Question 4: Interviewer: He ordered a cup of coffee for the candidate.
Coffee arrived kept before the candidate, then he asked what is before you?
Candidate: Instantly replied "Tea"
He got selected.
You know how and why did he say "TEA" when he knows very well that coffee was kept before.
(Answer: The question was "What is before you (U - alphabet) Reply was "TEA" ( T - alphabet)
Alphabet "T" was before Alphabet "U"
Question 5: Where Lord Rama would have celebrated his "First Diwali"?
People will start thinking of Ayodya, Mitila [Janaki's place], Lanka etc...
But the logic is, Diwali was a celebrated as a mark of Lord Krishna Killing Narakasura.
In Dusavataar, Krishnavathaar comes after Raamavathaar.
So, Lord Rama would not have celebrated the Diwali At all!
Question 6: The interviewer asked to the candidate "This is your last question of the interview.
Please tell me the exact position of the center of this table where u have kept your files."
Candidate confidently put one of his finger at some point at the table and told that this was the central point at the table.
Interviewer asked how did u get to know that this being the central point of this table,
then he answers quickly that sir u r not likely to ask any more question, as it was the last question that u promised to ask.....
And hence, he was selected as because of his quick-wittedness. ........
This is What Interviewer expects from the Interviewee. ....

Love does not claim possession, but gives freedom.
This is true and I think I have found one in my life.

Silence
Silence is one of the ways to find solutions. It avoids by getting more into problem. It helps to reciprocate the inner human. It makes to think to what you really want and where you need to go and also helps to understand where you are lacking. By telling others, you can attempt to give the glimpse of the situation but cannot make them understand what exactly is wrong. I can recall one of the saying which I have heard in my earlier days as Silence is first step for Sadhana. It could be distinct for every individual. But I feel, one needs to be away from everything that is keeping occupied from getting the eternal bliss...
Silence expresses most of the emotions but one need the complete concentration to understand what that really means. Most often I can experience that I am always occupied with problems and so I tend to be quiet, but it gives a different look altogether to the viewers. I can recall some moments of my school days wherein, we were supposed to be Silence for atleast half an hour. I now wonder I have already been trained the ways of happy living, with no knowledge of where it needs to be implemented, but I was unaware about the art of using it.
Many a times, when something really bothers I do prefer to be quiet, away from everything that distracts me from myself. Silence helps to visualize, analyze, question, to get ways out, provides alternatives and final output is the solution for all. The ultimate output would be an energized human with full of enthusiasm.

Memorable Evening
Yesterday, I was busy working on my comp, and then I could feel by the smell of the mud and cool breeze that someone is coming to visit me. So I decided to wind up and rushed to welcome my friend on terrace with eyes wide open for arrival. But then I could realise that even Mr. Blue had set eyes on our reunion. I know my friend was also desperate to see the cute smile as he had come twice, but I couldn’t make it up due to busy schedules.
I know she made me wait as she was bit annoyed with, as I could not spare some time, but then I kept by clock ticking, then thought to get back to complete the tasks. The moment I could take steps off, I spotted his arrival with tiny steps heading towards with its sparking drops falling on my eyes. To catch this sight, many others had also gathered. The breeze had come with its arm wide for a hug. The stars had hidden behind the clouds to surprise us. The moon was peeping to evidence our memorable gathering. The trees were all set to celebrate the event.
My friend had surprised by performing a dance for me along with the breeze with beautiful steps accompanied by a song from Cuckoo. The trees encouraged this with a loud applause by rattling their branches and the other birds twittering as chorus.
This all made me feel special wherein I was part of all and they enjoyed seeing me smiling with a glowing face. The time slipped from us with these sweet moments. And I could sense that the happiness had got transformed to tears as my friend had to depart. But I kept the hopes high by promising for our next gathering, by the time I could realise, she had already left me with a big smile with lot of freshness in mind and soul.

Success
It is wining, when one is sure of already being lost
It is the desires, which can be reached with the potentials
It is a rough road which takes to great heights
It is a reservoir of willpower
It is to leave the foot prints for future
It is how high, one would fly when hit down
It is actually what has been done
It is to make mistakes and overcome it
It is to earn the appreciation of critics

The Greatest Pain
A lovely mail, I received, that I am sharing with you.
• The Greatest pain in life is not to die, but to be ignored.
• To help someone out and the person doesn’t even say thank you
• To lose the person you love so much to another who doesn’t care at all.
• To have someone you care so much about, throw a party….and not tell you about it.
• When your favorite person on earth neglects to invite you to his Christmas party.
• To have people think you don’t care.
• The Greatest pain in life is not to die, but to be forgotten.
• To be left in the dust after another’s great achievement.
• To never get a call from a friend, just to say “Hi” When you show someone your innermost thoughts and he laughs in your face.
• For friends to always be too busy to console you when you need someone to lift your spirits.
• When it seems like the only person who cares about you is you.
• Life is full of pain, but does it ever get better?
• Will people ever care about each other, and make time for those who are in need?
• Each of us has a part to play in this great show called Life.
• Each of us has a duty to mankind to tell our friends we love them.
• If you do not care about your friends, you will not be punished.
• You will simply be ignored….forgotten…. as you have done to others.
This poem was written by a young girl who committed suicide some years ago.
Please show someone you care for him/her today. It takes so little of your time to smile, give a hug, a word of encouragement or just to say “I care”.

Life is Beautiful!
Given the topic that Life is beautiful is simple topic but when you starting blogging then one get caught within your thoughts. It is just an experience that makes you feel that Life is really beautiful. It is an illusion that you carry with. Life is a journey which starts with the time one opens the eyes in this beautiful world. Life seems to be beautiful as you start liking it. Once you start liking, even a butterfly with different colors makes the viewer to go in deep thoughts. A child’s smile makes the day gloom. Life is beautiful is an assumption which is all together. Life is full of blessings that makes it more beautiful and its also depends the attitude one carry to adapt to life. Life is about hope and positivity and that makes it beautiful. It is this feeling which makes one feel lively.

Older Days of Life
I was going through one the blogs and was dumb stuck at one point, where the author was speaking about his experience with regard to a woman in her old days. The old woman was in need of food and a shelter in one of the holy place, for which the author has provided her with the meal for that day. I too have experienced this many a times, wherein for that particular moment one can help with the necessities, but once you are back to the respective places, the saga of old age continues.
While putting across these views, I can recall one of the instance which I can never forget. At the time of my school days there was a petty shop near my place, wherein I used to buy my stationeries and eatables most often. The owner of the shop was a middle aged man with average physic. He was running this shop accompanied with his wife. The man was furious with no patience and was yelling at the customers visiting the shop. Many a times, I too was scared to go as the way he used to treat the customers was something most of them would have felt not to visit again, since there was no other shop, everyone has to turn back.
The days passed, I moved on to my higher studies, similarly the man grew old and his son took over the shop. But still the old man was supporting his son and his wife passed away. One fine day, I got to know the shop was closed, then we had to move on with alternative.
At the time of completion of my graduation, I used to visit Old age Homes and Orphans Home on weekends. On one of the Saturday, I had been to Old age home with my friends, wherein we had took the utilities with some of the clothes and the food. We all went in and started distributing the items among all and as I went on, I could see someone observing me from far. At first look, I could not recognize the face of the person, then I went near to him, and to my surprise, it was t he same person who was the owner of that petty shop. My first observation was that he had depression on his face which was accompanied by his past. His wet eyes where expressing the grief and was recalling his journey of life and with a feeling that his family has abandoned him at this stage of life. The sight had bought a drops of tear in my eyes, wherein I started feeling that parents breed their children with a hope that they might support them at Older days. After seeing him in this condition, the assumptions had to change and one needs to move on.
The best part was that he had been send to a Old Age Home, where someone is there to take care unlike the one I had mentioned earlier in the blog who would be put on road. As we move on in the journey of our life, we get many companions but they last for only short period and at the end you have come all alone and will be going on alone.

My Apologies Ms. SV, what I noticed I had just asked you as a friend, if you feel my words are so criticizing then you are wrong as I don't know about your career as what you have been doing as we did not have communication since 2 yrs.
Well anyways you take care and please learn not to respond to emails in such headstrong and rude way as its always not good to the reader.
Well, I think you are so grown up and think you also learned how to help yourself without any friends or anyone.
Take care SV and long bye from my end.
Best Regards,
RKN
P.S: Sorry I have your resume and I have deleted it.

Blog
The genesis of the idea of blogging came up by reading the other’s blogs, A blogger is free to post their thoughts on varied topics, which adds to the knowledge worldwide. Therefore I decided to contribute and thus this webpage came in shape.
Today blogging has become one of the medium that enables a voice to be heard, It is basically considered as online dairies which throws up views and helps to get the opine from the network closely.
Some of the don’ts which needs to be considered by blogger would be to aware of happenings, try not to cross the limits and see to that no verbal abuse as it has got worldwide audience to read it.
