Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.

The auto fare revision may be fair
Will the drivers be fair about the fare?
Will they ever go by the meter?
If not, how does the revision matter?

No matter how big our estate is,

How big our house is,



Our graves are of the same size

As Tolstoy said, six feet is all that we need

SO BE HUMBLE

Lament of a Chennaiite
Taxes squeeze us
Autos fleece us
Officials tease us
No one to please us
The above was written four years back and is quite valid till date.​

Taken from my closed thread
HELMET
Helmet rule is often flouted
It's efficacy is being doubted
It helps you protect your head
Saves you from year long stay in bed
Makes you stay without being dead
Prevents your family from going red

Taken from my closed thread
HAPPINESS
Happiness is a state of mind and time
It varies for everyone from time to time
It is invariably a relative state as I view
You are happy until you meet someone happier than you!

The third-rate mind is happy only when it is thinking with the majority.
The second-rate mind is happy only when it is thinking with the minority.
The first-rate mind is happy only when it is THINKING ( on its own)

long enough to cover the subject,
and short enough to evoke curiosity.

“The person you marry is the person you fight with. The house you buy is the house you repair. The dream job you take is the job you stress over. Everything comes with an inherent sacrifice—whatever makes us feel good will also inevitably make us feel bad. What we gain is also what we lose. What creates our positive experiences will define our negative experiences. This is a difficult pill to swallow. We like the idea that there’s some form of ultimate happiness that can be attained. We like the idea that we can alleviate all of our suffering permanently. We like the idea that we can feel fulfilled and satisfied with our lives forever. But we cannot.” ~ Mark Mason

Rides on a hefty and huge buffalo

Little bothered about its shape and size

Not because he is very wise

Nor because the buffalo is so nice

All because it knows not its strength

And the fellow knows that it doesn't know it's strength

Don't view exams as being sour



Whether you gain knowledge or not

Exams indirectly help you a lot

They help you to concentrate your mental power

And achieve success in your everyday endeavour
