Breaking and Building

Again, It has happened, I have broken the trust of my wife. Why is it happening like this, my relationship with my wife is growing to heavens. But all of a sudden, it is broken. This is happening for the 3rd time in my marriage life.

Now, I have to start from the first. I have to start building my trust from the ground level. It is a Himalayan Task, it requires lot of Patience. Everything is because of my troubled Childhood.

But, whatever happens, her trust will return to me. Because "I Love Her" so much.

Good Quote

I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

Aathichuvadi

Do you remember Aathichuvadi ? If not please read it here.

Self-help - currently the western world is looking into it. I have read lot of self-help books, ranging from Robin Sharma to Tony Robbins. Tamil literature has also donated the world with its irreplaceable Thirukural written 2nd BC. It is also donated Aathichuvadi, written by Aavaiyyar (a female poet).

ID, Purse and Mobile

"ID, Purse and Mobile" - I hear this phrase daily. My wife used to ask me everyday "Have you taken ID, Purse and Mobile ?". She knows I'm an absent-minded professional. But there is a philosophy behind it.. I'm not a philosopher or something like that, but it is just a metaphor.

ID (Identity Card), signifies your Identity in this world (Your Self). Purse, of course, is your financial status, how do you manage your money(mere earning is no enough, one should know how to manage it) . Mobile is the communication quality, how you communicate with the outside world.

Your world revolves around these 3 important things.

A PSALM OF LIFE

A PSALM OF LIFE

WHAT THE HEART OF THE YOUNG MAN
SAID TO THE PSALMIST

TELL me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream ! —
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.

Life is real ! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal ;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.

Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way ;
But to act, that each to-morrow
Find us farther than to-day.

Art is long, and Time is fleeting,
And our hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like muffled drums, are beating
Funeral marches to the grave.

In the world's broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle !
Be a hero in the strife !

Trust no Future, howe'er pleasant !
Let the dead Past bury its dead !
Act,— act in the living Present !
Heart within, and God o'erhead !

Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time ;

Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o'er life's solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.

Let us, then, be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate ;
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait.

Life is a Binary Search

“Life is a Binary Search” - Meaning you keep oscillating between extremes until you find your niche in life.
