AUTO WALLAS!!

Today was just another boring day at work until I encountered some problems with the Microsoft Excdel spreadsheet. No matter what, I shoud say and I am sure you all agree that Excel is one of the best tools anyone has come across. The amount of stuff that it allows you to automate is beyond expalnation. So the rest of my bad day at work wnet good as I got totally engrossed with the formulaes in excel and finally was satisfied as I got the result I wanted in the simplest of forms, just with one formula!!! Kudos!
Then came the thing that I hate the most. Travelling by an auto in Bangalore is one of the worst things anyone can do or think of. It is better to even go by a bullock cart but one should always avoid autos for a number of reasons: The drivers have no decency, they stare at girls whther they are in burkhas or in jeans, they decide the rate that they want as they do not believe in meters, they will take you to your destination if they want to go there els eits a NO NO, if not this, they would ask for prices beyond Rs 100 even if by meter the amount would come upto Rs 50, meter bhi daalenge but they would ask Rs 20 as extra apart from the meter. And the worst thing is their meter is never right, some tuning is always done to them!!

I can go on and on about autois and auto wallas!! I just hate them!! well... our buses are much better!!

Thats it for now, too damn sleepy need to wake up very early and ride my bike in the chilling weather of Bangalore! Heard its 13 degress celsius today...oh man!!!

Kudos

A Good Thought!

Life can be lived in only two ways:

Life of Meaning: Work hard with just one goal in life and work each day to reach that. One forgets the small moments of happiness, one slogs and works very hard just to reach that goal, age goes by and you realise you are older than your age. But yes, the hard work, the sacrifices, the small moments of happiness forgone all pay back, coz the goal has been accomplished. However, age goes by but you have all that you always wnated to!! This is living a life of meaning, a life which has happiness , lots of it but after a lot of firmness and struggle!

Life of Happiness: Work hard with goals which keep changing with time and circumstances!! However, one would find alternatives to be happy as the goal you worked for could not be accomplished due to XYZ reasons!! One would find happiness every second and would laugh it out each moment just thinking like its the last moment of their life and if not for now, then never, so lets just forget about all the worries and live life! This is called living life of Happiness, a life which has lot of confusion, lot of ambiguity yet loadz of happiness for the moment!!

But, if one learns to balance these two lives, they are worth the inspirations and worth teh appreciations!!

I am still figuring out the life I am living!! ;)
