Time Less Tales

What is this life if full of care
We have no time to stand and stare

are the lines of W.H.Davies from Leisure. How true his lines are. Most of us really don't have any time.
May be its because of studies or work whatever the case . In this material world where everyone's running after money have hardly any time. Ask anybody for some time, he would say he's busy. I heard an anecdote sometime back : "After 12 hours of work wherein a father goes for job early before his son awakes and returns late night when his son has gone to sleep. The child asks his mom who is this uncle who comes home every Sunday with lot of gifts".

I m not sure whom to blame. Should we blame ourselves who don't manage to spare some time or this competitive world that teaches us to follow Darwin's theory wherein we have to strive hard for survival?

By the way some of my friends have took to blogging. And Jay has even stuffed up couple of posts. Plz take time to read them. Here's the link:Le Voyage De La Vie'

BRAGOMANIA -I,me,myself

Often i come across people who like to brag about themselves. From bus to office and back from office to home the number i encounter has greatly increased. There is no area they dont know about. They always have a point to add. And they narrate such comic stories wherein they are the hero or centre of attraction. I love to hear their strange stories. This happens mostly in the bus i travel. From laborers to guys working in LifeStyle(mall) all love to boast about themselves.

This thing is good until one guy is a silent listener. If both are braggers then god save the rest. It normally leads to verbal debates, quarrels and even brawls. But i being a listener{here goes the word again 'I' being a listener. Bragging myself as a great listener :)} helps me judging others whether to idolize that guy or just listen. Its quite simple. 'The less you speak of your greatness, the more shall I think of it.'

There is another type of boasting and a strange one too. Its by criticizing others. I always do feel that criticizing others or making fun of others is a form of self boasting.

Its quite amusing and ironical that there are very few who actually walk the talk !!! Once again no offense boaster:) Enjoy this quote.

Mules are always boasting that their ancestors were horses.

Thanks janete for this tool

Today i came across a cool personality tool thanks to janete
According to it i m INFJ kinda guy.

INFJs, making up an estimated 1% of all people, are the most rare type (males even more so). They are introspective, caring, sensitive, gentle and complex people that strive for peace and derive satisfaction from helping others. INFJs are highly intuitive, empathetic and dedicated listeners. These traits tend to act as a "tell me what's wrong" sign on their forehead, hence the nicknames Confidant, Counselor or Empath. INFJs are intensely private and deeply committed to their beliefs.

Praise - A Necessity(But scarce)

Often i feel that in order for a man to raise up in any field he needs praise and support by counterparts or leader along with talent and skill.

No matter how talented u r whenever u step upto apply the learning in your field you need encouragement from others.'Wow nice work', 'well done' said by co-workers or lead in front of others certainly boosts confidence. On the other hand even though u r skillfull and some one tries to find faults in you in one and everything you do you feel let down. Gradually you start making mistakes unknowingly and specially when that person is watching you. Then a stage comes when you feel frightened to do the thing that once you love to do!!

In this age of competition its hard to praise others. Let me share a story of my school days that i had in one of my gujarati lectures. A sir drew a line on the board and asked students to make it short. Most of them rubbed the line from edges but that was not what sir wanted. He told u should make it short without touching the line. Finally when most of the students gave up he called his favorite student. He came and drew a longer line besides the line the sir had drawn!!!

Normally its a tendency of man to pull others leg in order to show his superiority :(

Bottomline "Encourage others, unsee their mistakes and help them". I know its hard to do!!!

18 till i die

Another year to add on to my arsenal accounting to 23 years. Well last year i gained one promotion(professional experience), some new friends, some weight, some wealth. I lost some innocence, some patience, time to enjoy. Well i have noticed that all these that i gain or lose behaves like climbing a mountain. At first while u begin from foothill u are innocent, have time but u are dependendent less knowledge no money. Slowly as u climb and reach the pinnacle u gain knowledge and money, u are less dependent but lose on innocence and time. Then as climb down everything goes back to where you have started.

Very much looking coming years.
And one last thing :- Come on what are you waiting for ? Give me birthday wishes :)
