Sorry Loves and Coffee Brakes

You are very smart. That is why you will not attempt to connect the things mentioned here. Because you can easily find that neither individually nor collectively they will succeed in convey anything conclusively.

Coffee is good: It is not that we love all the discoveries of science. Would you like it if someone proves [Fresh Juice - 2hrs - Coffee+Cigarette - 3hrs - Food - 1hr - Cigarette - 1hr - Alcoholic Beverage] everyday will keep you away from all the health problems? After all, only H 2 O is water and nothing else. How about the health risks of coffee? Why should someone spend time and find out the health hazards of caffeine? How lovely is the aroma of coffee! It just fits so well for any season, any mood. The pleasure of taking a sip of coffee, feeling it at the lips and letting the hotness spread on your whole body is a priceless experience. Why this happiness be lost because of the useless(!) findings?

Everyone does their job: I often see the lunch hall wash basin drain is blocked by some vegetable and soon filled with yellowish water. Though I know how to fix it and I can do it and I have everything to clean my hands after doing it, I don't try doing it. I wonder what will I do when all of them become unusable on one unfortunate day. I don't have to do all these possible things. Do I? I have people to do that. In fact, there are people who hate someone else doing their job or if the job is easier than it has to be. I let them do it.

Nothing we make is 100% right: It has either become natural or it is just natural that we see how everything fits in our view rather than how we fit in this whole universe. That should be the primary reason for the impossibility of perfectness from us. Otherwise, Valluvar would have written something else instead of குணம்நாடிக் குற்றமும் நாடி அவற்றுள் மிகைநாடி மிக்க கொளல். It is not only true for the character of a person, it also holds good for our actions.



DreamingAway: Sorry Loves and Coffee Brakes


Sorry not necessarily mean that we have done something wrong: You push the door to open and find a person trying to pull it from the other side. The person who pulls the door is almost always fails to be alert and shows you the shocked face. You immediately say sorry. That is typical, the person who pushes the door need to say sorry. Isn't? You didn't do anything intentionally and the other person knows it and so just smiles. What else can be cooler than the sorry accepted with the smile? Not only the planned(!) meetings, even the accidental things like these can help you to break the "unknownship".

One good thing about the vast campus space is that you can spend sometime really away from your work place with your friends. You take a cup of coffee and use lift to reach the ground floor. It might be just you and your friends at the top floor. People get on the lift at every floor and it gets crowded. You try to move a bit but the person standing behind you is not aware of your need for the space to move. You put a brake, a brake to save your coffee. But alas, it spills but since you are not lost all the control, you adjust and let it drop on the floor instead of the person standing in front of you and you immediately say sorry. The other person just realizing what is happening there, finding no harm done, just accepts your sorry with a smile. That is a chance for you and the other person to recognize each other when you meet again somewhere, possibly on the same lift. Don't worry about the coffee stain. There are people to serve and keep the lift clean.

The Kite Runner

Usually, I buy and read book suggested by my friends but no one suggested me to read the book "The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini". I neither heard about it before I accidentally bought it. I was looking for the books I planned to buy in the Chennai Bookfair 2011 and I found this book . There was something attractive, though it was not as beautiful as of many of the books cover design, it should be the cover of it, because all I could see was only the book cover. I took it in my hand and asked myself, should I buy this?, yes was the answer and I bought it. I completed reading this book last week, after keeping it the shelf for almost 2 years. I am glad I got this book. It is one of best books I read in the recent years. The phrase " For you, a thousand times over " lingering in the mind is the proof that I really enjoyed reading this book and moved so much ;) " I became what I am today at the age of twelve, on a frigid overcast day in the winter of 1975 &

New Year Resolution 2015

Another new year, another ( same! ) set of new year resolutions. I wanted to read Thirukural and set target 50 last year but couldn't achieve it. But then I used one Kural in my every blog post . New Year Resolution List: For year 2016, I should shorten it to at least 1/3 of this list. At least, make it more readable ;) Reading Books: Book reading is going to be reduced this year. I am planning to reread few of the books I read last year. Of course, will find time to read books suggested by friends. I have got Bhagavad Gita tamil version from my friend and might read this before the end of 2015. I Am Malala, The Last Temptation of Jesus Christ, Mossad, 'The Madman, The Forerunner, Spirits Rebellious', Yudhargal Varalaarum Vaazkaiyum, If You Meet The Buddha On The Road Kill Him are few of the books I enjoyed reading. By the way, I have changed the FB album title from "Books I read" to "Books I read - Not To Be Shared" ;) Accounting: How difficu
