A few things...

Life has given me my share of ups and downs. And is still making me ride it like a sine wave. But along the way it has taught me few valuable lessons too. Here go a few...

-> If you’re smiling right now, you’re doing something right.

-> It’s not so much what you say that counts, it’ how you make people feel.

-> The biggest mistake you can make is doing nothing because you’re scared to make a mistake.

-> No matter how it turns out, it always ends up just the way it should be. Either you succeed or you learn something. Win-Win.

-> Freedom is the greatest gift. Self-sufficiency is the greatest freedom.

-> If you catch yourself working hard and loving every minute of it, don’t stop. You’re on to something big. Because hard work ain’t hard when you concentrate on your passions.

-> It’s not about getting a chance, it’s about taking a chance. You’ll rarely be 100% sure it will work. But you can always be 100% sure doing nothing won’t work. Sometimes you just have to go for it!

-> Complaining is like slapping yourself for slapping yourself. It doesn’t solve the problem, it just hurts you more.

-> The one with nothing to hide is always the one left standing tall.

-> You can press forward long after you can’t. It’s just a matter of wanting it bad enough.

-> There’s a big difference between knowing and doing. Knowledge is basically useless without action.

-> In work and business, when they need you more than you need them, you have succeeded.

-> Everything that happens in life is neither good nor bad. It just depends on your perspective.

-> We are all weird. And life is weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we call it love.

-> True friendship and true love do sustain the tests of distance and time.

-> You can’t change who you are. You can only change what you know and how you apply this knowledge.

-> It is okay to be angry. It is never okay to be cruel.

-> Even when you feel like you have nothing, someone else likely has far less. Find them and help them. You’ll see why.

-> Having a thousand credentials on the wall will not make you a decent human being. But genuinely helping one person everyday will.

-> There’s a big difference between knowing and doing. Knowledge is basically useless without action.

-> You can’t change who you are. You can only change what you know and how you apply this knowledge.

-> Having a 1000 friends is good. But find out that one person who will stand by you when you are in need.

-> Change happens for a reason. Roll with it. It won’t be easy, but it will be worth it.

Remember.. Everything that happens in life is neither good nor bad. It just depends on your perspective. :)

Pointless

yeah... and so? what's the point? what am i trying to say? where is all this heading anyway? what would be the final outcome? i don't know.. but then does anyone actually know? The whole point i think right now is being pointless. Everyone around is only trying to prove their point. Now i wanna say that i don't wanna make any point at all. Well is that a point too? Maybe it is. I don't know. There's so much that i don't know. So much that i want to know. No i'm not curious. I just wanna learn...and unlearn...till every point collides, and every figure resembles the other, and every one looks like everyone else, or at least realize that stripped out of our externals we are all the same. Then why draw so many lines? So many boundaries? So many ways of discriminating? Bveryone is fighting for identity. But what is it-this whole war to assert identities. First you are not given any subjectivity that's why you fight. Then you realize you need to speak for yourself, that's why you fight...and then you realize that "YOU" has power and not everyone can be "YOU" and that's why you define "YOU", narrow it down and fight again and it goes on. Don't we need to transcend these definitions and identities? Do we care? Is it helping anyway? Fighting for identities forever? Whose identities? When do we stop? Who are the winners? Who are the losers? Do they even exist? Does anyone know? All of these questions may not be necessary. Maybe these are what they call POINTLESS...
