December Rain - 6

It is no longer a fascinating story. It has become routine again now as it was before. The media has to invent new ways to keep me interested. I was talking about women safety. I was talking about women rights. I was talking about laws and punishments for the crime against them. Together with my friends, I shared posts on social media with the hope that every single voice counts and that is the way we bring change in this world. I remember the Delhi girl instance . I also realise that more cruel and more brutal of this are still happening around. That is fine, at least ignorable, I have something else to talk now. And so are my friends.

I choose a land in a posh area and I know how to buy it in less time and whom to pay. I build a beautiful house, yes decorated with exotic lights, thanks to the electricity board for the quick connection.I keep two rooms at the top - inexpensive enough so that I can demolish it when the Government doesn't like it. How can the 2G spectrum be auctioned less than the market price? I hate and I am against all these scams and corruptions in my country. I talk about it and so are my friends.

 I am teaching my son about the ways to get protected himself from the bad things. But then, I teach him the bad too, after all, without knowing the bad he can't fight against it. Of course, the bad thing about the bad is that it can entice you easily and take you to its side. And the worse is that the bad can come coated as good too. Anyway, I am not expecting my son to be a great leader in the future and demolish all the things I myself wish, I myself fail to destroy now. I just want him to be a good son and possibly a good person for the people around him. This good is just the normal and normal is the way of living. I don't want him to be the purest, because, pureness and perfectionism are not of worldly things. I live in this world and so are my friends.

December Rain - 6

How hard it is to define something as right or as wrong! Zillions of factors come in the way which no one can think and analyse. I am just lost in some foolish ideology or annoying politics or unrealistic religious beliefs and so on. I have to surrender to the enormity of all these powers. I am no longer interested in fighting against those evils as they got too many forms. I alone can do nothing. I need God to protect me. I can't drop Him. I need Him to protect me, forever! I am one of those normal persons and I will remain like this till my last breath - breathing alone is my life.

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...

My Book Shelf - Year 2017

I find it difficult to get this reading order. And I guess it would be still harder to read them without changing the order. I may allow one or two new books to be included in this list, if required. Share book reviews and ratings with Kovil Pillai, and even join a book club on Goodreads.
