Why do we shout in anger

A saint asked his disciples, ‘Why do we shout in anger? Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?’

Disciples thought for a while, one of them said,
‘Because we lose our calm, we shout for that.’
‘But, why to shout when the other person is just next to you?’ asked the saint. ‘Isn’t it possible to speak to him or her with a
soft voice? Why do you shout at a person when you’re angry?’

Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the saint.
Finally he explained,
‘When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other through that great distance.’

Then the saint asked, ‘What happens when two people fall in love?
They don’t shout at each other but talk softly, why? Because their
hearts are very close. The distance between them is very small…’

The saint continued, ‘When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper and they get even closer to
each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other and that’s all. That is how close two people are when they love each other.’

I am tired of being tired

An empty chair to seat
for my legs to get some rest
and my bumps to have some stress
Pain in body is relieved
but not vanished

Standing up relieves my bumps
And puts stress on my legs
I feel the pain
It gets worse
What is happening to me?

Pile of files in front of me
I am trying to focus
Cool breeze kisses me
My eyes are closing now
What was there in that breeze?

Out there under the sun
He is trying to suck me
Like orange juice
For me, water is not enough
Nothing is enough
Thirst is never satisfied

My bed is not my friend
Not anymore
Laying on bed hurts
All the pain at same time
Then my eyes get closed
It doesn’t take long

The symptoms are repeated
They seem to be perpetual
once again the same question
What is happening to me?
I am tired
No…
I am tired of being tired

The Big Small Car – Nano

What happens when you say the word Nano? You probably remember something tiny. May be Hummingbird. May be iPod. May be some tiny gadget. But whatever it is, it is small. It lacks the bigness. Now the things are going to change. Nano is not small. It is big. It is huge. This is reality. Welcome to the world of Nano.

Today was the day when Tata Nano was launched. Successfully launched. Millions of eyes were waiting for this moment. The car they have been waiting for over year. This car aims to fulfill the dreams of every person who wants to buy a car. Why not? When you can get a car with decent amount of features for 1Lakh rupees then why not?

Sadly, they have to wait. They have to wait for more than what they think. The demand for this car is huge. Production of this car doesn’t live up to it’s expectation. It will take a hell lot of time and good amount of luck to get this car parked in your garage. Also expect long…  Very long queue’s when you’ll go for booking this car in mid April.

There are only two plants where this car is produced. This is as far as I know. The scale of this is very less. It would have been different if the Singur plant was allowed. Also this car is not on first come first serve basis. There will be a lottery from which names will be chosen. They will get the cars. Good thing is that only one car per person.

Nano will also give rise to traffic problems. Already they are worse. Whatever it is. People won’t refrain from buying this car. It’s affordable and their pocket’s won’t get burned. Three cheers for Nano..

The feel good factor

After a lot of copy-paste stuff, uploading, zipping, unzipping and what nonsense, I finally brought my blog back online again. Everything is smooth at the point of writing. I really missed blogging during this long period. I got a habit of writing all my thoughts, nonsense to be precise, on this blog. If it doesn’t get out then I feel uncomfortable. That’s was what I was feeling. Now I am feeling good.

This month was too bad in terms of returns. I didn’t earn much mostly due to downtime. It’s not that I am getting greedy, but I want some name on this webspace. So I am investing money accordingly. My paypal limits are about to get over. Now I have to link credit card which I don’t have. It’s going good overall.

I have lots of plans online but I hate to say I lack in time. I am slowly gathering some time everyday. But I’ll be busy till the end of May. Only Rain can get me some extra time. I should pray “It’s Raining Man”.

Till the rain comes…

Think Nonsense…
