Continuing my entry about truth…
The path of truth is difficult. Who told this?? Is it really difficult? No it’s not. The thing is we compare it with the path of lie. And then the path of truth seems to be difficult. What if we never knew what is lie?? And the path of lie.., Will that be a difficult path?? The answer is obvious and we all know that its “No”.

I speak lies. I admit it. And I used to speak a lot earlier. But some years back something in me made me go away from the lies. The number of lies decreased and the problems increased. But there was no situation like “If I speak the truth I’ll die”. And I started getting used to the truth. Today still I speak lies. But it’s almost negligible. But I do lie.

I want to be at a stage where I don’t have to speak the lie. The support from truth is rigid. You are sure that the support will never fail. Unlike the lies where the support is temporary and not a rigid one. I don’t expect all of you to speak the truth always. For most of you this may be an impossible path. But do give it a try.

We say truth is bitter and lies are sweet. But if we don’t know the sweet taste then bitter taste will be sweeter. And may be one day you’ll not like the sweet cake. (I love cakes. So don’t expect me to hate cakes :)

Truth. It’s bitter. Well almost most of the times. We stay away from truth as it always lead to pain. I was watching a Marathi drama “Yada-Kadachit”. It was a fun filled drama and contained the PJ’s which somehow made me laugh. The presentation was good and so was the idea. The characters from Ramayana and Mahabharata were mixed and the story emerged. But what strike me was the ending. It created many questions in my mind. Although I think nonsense but some sensible thoughts do come. You’ve to believe miracles do happen.

The ending raised a question. We all know that whatever may happen, In the end truth always wins. Now why does the truth wins always in the end?? This question was asked.
“In the end Truth always wins”
And the same sentence I’ve heard in many films, read in newspapers, blogs but the question never raised in my mind. It can be understood though such sensible things have no place in my mind. Have you ever been strike by this question?? I’ve never heard of any comments regarding this. Why truth never wins from start?? Why it has to wait till the end?? And bear all the pain only to see that there is little left for happiness. Read the rest of this entry »

All of us are aware of this part of computer. Majority of the input is made through the keyboard only. Although mouse is really helpful in navigation. But you can navigate effectively without the mouse also. Just the thing is you need to give some time to learn some keyboard shortcuts and move away from mouse. Almost all of us don’t like this animal. Exception of those who are doctors. They love to murder them.

So I have this keyboard which was working good for last five years. Its the only keyboard since I bought my computer. But for last few days keys started sticking. Especially the space key and the Enter key. Along with 2-3 others keys also. So it needs replacement. I’ve to look for something which equals my current keyboard. It seems to be a difficult find. I’ve tried asking for the similar type in three stores. All in vain.

Many of the keyboard come with three keys just above arrow keys. The three keys include Sleep,wake-up and scroll lock. Due to this foolish placement I try to accidentally hit one of those. And that’s bad. i was surprised to see that keyboard and mouse come in duo. Means single is not easily available. The ones you get are local and cheap Chinese which are useless plastic crap.

My current keyboard is what I want in new one. This keyboard hardly gave me any problem in last 5 years. i used to remove all keys every 3-4 months and clean it up. Did this about a month back but no changes. I wash it using detergent and it shines as a new one. May be one of the few good things I do for computer.

Think Nonsense….

After loosing my job no. 4, I said my mind is like a butterfly. It is. The thoughts just change within a fraction of seconds. Although that may be a good sign as a writer or a poet. But certainly an Engineer should not have such mind. When you are professional it’s best to concentrate on one thing. But somehow I’ve lost that in past few months.

The thoughts range from good ones to bad ones. Like the Butterfly who sometimes get a good flower and sometimes a bad one. I try to stamp the good thoughts. Some of them just stick and come out on this blog. Yeah of course they come out as nonsense. But the bad thoughts many times just stick. I never try to save them. They just stick as if there is a magnet which attracted them.

It’s not wise to say your bad thoughts. Unlike Butterflies which always symbols good, At least they do so for me, Thoughts cannot always be good. Having a mind like a Butterfly is just the frequent change in thoughts. If you have read my posts from beginning you’ll notice that. There may be some contradictions in thoughts. You may point them out. But remember that you are trying to make sensible comment on nonsense.

A parable is told of a farmer who owned an old mule.The mule fell into the farmer’s well. The farmer heard the mule ‘braying’- or- whatever mules do when they fall into wells.After carefully assessing the situation, the farmer sympathized with the mule, but decided that neither the mule nor the well was worth the trouble of saving.

Instead, he called his neighbors together and told them what had happened…and enlisted them to help haul dirt to bury the old mule in the well and put him out of his misery. Initially, the old mule was hysterical! But as the farmer and his neighbors continued shoveling and the dirt hit his back…a thought struck him.

It suddenly dawned on him that every time a shovel load of dirt landed on his back…

HE SHOULD SHAKE IT OFF AND STEP UP!

This he did, blow after blow.

Shake it off and step up…

shake it off and step up…

shake it off and step up!

He repeated to encourage himself. No matter how painful the blows, or distressing the situation seemed the old mule fought panic and just kept right on

SHAKING IT OFF AND STEPPING UP!

You’re right!

It wasn’t long before the old mule, battered and exhausted,

STEPPED TRIUMPHANTLY OVER THE WALL OF THAT WELL!

What seemed like would bury him, actually blessed him…
all because of the manner in which he handled his adversity.
That’s Life!
If we face our problems and respond to them positively,
and refuse to give in to panic, bitterness, or self-pity…

THE ADVERSITIES THAT COME ALONG TO BURY US USUALLY
HAVE WITHIN THEM THE POTENTIAL TO BENEFIT AND BLESS US!

So better to be like a mule. My father used to say me donkey every now and then. Now he doesn’t say that to me. Else I would have been proud that I’m donkey. Donkeys and mules are almost same.
