The Deeper Selfie

Oh, that stupid dog... I fell from my bike. Though I am not sure whether I got any serious injuries, I feel I am conscious and so I am fine. And my mobile too is so fine with no symptom for any damage. Wow, that is good! Lying on the road, I take a selfie with my bike while its wheels are still spinning and post it on the social media. My beloved friends surprise me by REACTING to it while I am just checking the upload status of the post.

There is a fire accident. Alas, it is a textile shop. Fire is dangerously faster when spreading and quicker in destroying the wealth. I take a quick fire selfie to show and spread the news. Of course, news with the tagline: Fire behind The Fire.


The researchers are analysing the pros and cons of selfie habit. I believe there are special moments that only be captured by selfies. You can’t always depend on your friends or self timers to take a photo. Your friends not necessarily agree with you on the beauty of the scene and so they won’t help you take a photo. Of course, the perception differs and there are things only we can see, only we can appreciate - take selfie! Also not everyone can come with you to the places where they think it is dangerous, where they think it is meaningless – you can walk anyway and take a selfie!

It is okay to get guidance to understand the world. We can’t be just alone and doing things. We need friends and people to help us in every walk of life. But then, there is a beyond-ness for every individual and it can only be seen by the self - the dream of your life. To go beyond and mark your identity you need to witness your deeper self too. So now and then have a look at your self and see the world through it.

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.

My Reading List -- 3
