Split Sociality

Have you ever seen someone very nice to you at 'place A' but altogether refuse to acknowledge you at 'place B'?


Should I call it 'Calculated Sociality' or 'Split Sociality'?

Let them go

Probably the most challenging part for parents is to let their kids GO, but as Khalil Jibran said: "They are not your but children of time." Trust them and let them learn their lessons in the ocean of life. Just pray for them.

Ritualist


She said: "I am very religious."

"Is it so?"

"I perform all rituals of my faith every day."

"Oh! So you are a Ritualist. Being Religious is so personal, deep, and buried that no one should see it."

New model of a car


Never buy a new model of the car early in the season unless you have no issue with frequent recalls.

Update: The car was Lexus RX-350. It gave me a lot of headaches and frequent repair issues and cost me a lot more money than its worth. Finally, I sold it and bought two cheaper cars! - Toytota RAV-4 and Hyundai Accent. Knock on wood for seven years!

Nice?

Is he nice or weak?

River of good people

Ye Duniya acche logon se at'i pari hai. Achhe log hain to us se bhi ziyada achhe log hain aur us se bhi ziyada achhe log. Aik dariya 

(.....aur dariya kinare woh aik chota sa darakht).

Hamlet!


Though Hamlet tries to use the politics of "I will speak daggers but use none" when he learns that "To be, or not to be: that is the question," this world is a different place, as Horatio said at the end:

Of carnal, bloody, and unnatural acts,
Of accidental judgments, casual slaughters,
Of deaths put on by cunning and forced cause,
And, in this upshot, purposes mistook
Fall'n on the inventors' reads: all this can I
Truly deliver.

Holocaust

Would we ever be able to estimate the level of pain of the Holocaust at a personal level? How emotionally painful it is to watch the whole innocent family get gas poisoned together by state machinery - and try to hide your kid from killers!!


I can only pray to God that no other nation or religion has to go through another holocaust in the future.

Man of the house!


Pathetic is the house where the Man of the house is spineless; the woman takes over and calls the shots !!

Unmanifested events

"Na zahoor pazeer hone wale waaqiaat" ke sadme ka dukh shayed utna hi amiq hota hai - jitna un waaqiye ke ho jaane se hota ho"!

(I wish someday we could experience alternate realities)
