all the roads appeared blocked, no way seemed to be clear and smooth. it's really bugging to sit at home doing nothing productive and creative. during such brain storms this type of frns or say humans beings are like WOW!!!
it's a real feel good factor and I felt as if i just had a multivitamin tablet after this conversation.
i always believed that ** ur presence in this world adds essence and to meaning for somebody else's world**. know it.
this post is a note of thanks to my frn **rish.**


PS: after this chat i felt like not to sleep but just stare and dream high with open eyes. there's a hope and so scope.

How far is it true???

i've got this fwded email quite a number of times. i dunno how far it's true. but it's something very close to my heart. i think this deserves a place not just in my laptop, but in my blog also.

here it goes.......

* The President of India DR. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam 's Speech in Hyderabad . *
Why is the media here so negative?Why are we in India so embarrassed to recognize our own strengths, our achievements? We are such a great nation. We have so many amazing success stories but we refuse to acknowledge them. Why?We are the first in milk production. We are number one in Remote sensing satellites. We are the second largest producer of wheat.We are the second largest producer of rice. Look at Dr. Sudarshan , he has transferred the tribal village into a self-sustaining, self-driving unit. There are millions of such achievements but our media is only obsessed in the bad news and failures and disasters. I was in Tel Aviv once and I was reading the Israeli newspaper. It was the day after a lot of attacks and bombardments and deaths had taken place. TheHamas had struck. But the front page of the newspaper had the picture of a Jewish gentleman who in five years had transformed his desert into an orchid and a granary. It was this inspiring picture that everyone woke up to. The gory details of killings, bombardments, deaths, were inside in the newspaper, buried among other news.
In India we only read about death, sickness, terrorism, crime. Why are we so NEGATIVE? Another question: Why are we, as a nation so obsessed with foreignthings? We want foreign T. Vs, we want foreign shirts. We want foreign technology.
Why this obsession with everything imported. Do we not realize that self-respect comes with self-reliance? I was in Hyderabad giving this lecture,when a 14 year old girl asked me for my autograph. I asked her what her goal in life is. She replied: I want to live in a developed India . For her, you and I will have to build this developed India . You must proclaim. Indiais not an under-developed nation; it is a highly developed nation. Do you have 10 minutes? Allow me to come back with a vengeance.
Got 10 minutes for your country? If yes, then read; otherwise, choice isyours.YOU say that our government is inefficient.YOU say that our laws are too old. YOU say that the municipality does not pick up the garbage. YOU say that the phones don't work, the railways are a joke,The airline is the worst in the world, mails never reach their destination.YOU say that our country has been fed to the dogs and is the absolute pits.
YOU say, say and say. What do YOU do about it?Take a person on his way to Singapore . Give him a name - YOURS. Give him aface - YOURS. YOU walk out of the airport and you are at your International best. In Singapore you don't throw cigarette butts on the roads or eat in the stores. YOU are as proud of their Underground links as they are. You pay $5 (approx. Rs. 60) to drive through Orchard Road (equivalent of MahimCauseway or Pedder Road) between 5 PM and 8 PM. YOU come back to the parking lot to punch your parking ticket if you have over stayed in a restaurant or a shopping mall irrespective of your status identity... In Singapore youdon't say anything, DO YOU? YOU wouldn't dare to eat in public during Ramadan, in Dubai . YOU would not dare to go out without your head coveredin Jeddah . YOU would not dare to buy an employee of the telephone exchange in London at 10 pounds ( Rs.650) a month to, 'see to it that my STD and ISD calls are billed to someone else.'YOU would not dare to speed beyond 55 mph (88 km/h) in Washington and then tell the traffic cop,'Jaanta hai main kaun hoon (Do you know who I am?). I am so and so's son. Take your two bucks and get lost.' YOU wouldn't chuck an empty coconut shell anywhere other than the garbage pail on the beaches in Australia and NewZealand .Why don't YOU spit Paan on the streets of Tokyo ? Why don't YOU use examination jockeys or buy fake certificates in Boston ??? We are still talking of the same YOU. YOU who can respect and conform to a foreign system in other countries but cannot in your own. You who will throw papers and cigarettes on the road the moment you touch Indian ground. If you can be an involved and appreciative citizen in an alien country, why cannot you be thesame here in India ?
Once in an interview, the famous Ex-municipal commissioner of Bombay , Mr. Tinaikar , had a point to make. 'Rich people's dogs are walked on the streets to leave their affluent droppings all over the place,' he said. 'And then the same people turn around to criticize and blame the authorities for inefficiency and dirty pavements. What do they expect the officers to do? Go down with a broom every time their dog feels the pressure in his bowels?In America every dog owner has to clean up after his pet has done the job. Same in Japan . Will the Indian citizen do that here?' He's right. We go to the polls to choose a government and after that forfeit all responsibility.We sit back wanting to be pampered and expect the government to do everything for us whilst our contribution is totally negative. We expect the government to clean up but we are not going to stop chucking garbage allover the place nor are we going to stop to pick a up a stray piece of paper and throw it in the bin. We expect the railways to provide clean bathrooms but we are not going to learn the proper use of bathrooms.We want Indian Airlines and Air India to provide the best of food andtoiletries but we are not going to stop pilfering at the least opportunity. This applies even to the staff who is known not to pass on the service to the public. When it comes to burning social issues like those related towomen, dowry, girl child! and others, we make loud drawing room protestations and continue to do the reverse at home. Our excuse? 'It's the whole system which has to change, how will it matter if I alone forego mysons' rights to a dowry.' So who's going to change the system? What does a system consist of ? Very conveniently for us it consists of our neighbours, other households, other cities, other communities and thegovernment. But definitely not me and YOU. When it comes to us actually making a positive contribution to the system we lock ourselves along with our families into a safe cocoon and look into the distance at countries far away and wait for a Mr.Clean to come along & work miracles for us with a majestic sweep of his hand or we leave the country and run away. Like lazy cowards hounded by our fears we run to America to bask in their glory and praise their system. When New York becomes insecure we run to England . When England experiences unemployment, we take the next flight out to the Gulf. When the Gulf is war struck, we demand to be rescued and brought home by the Indian government. Everybody is out to abuse and rape the country. Nobody thinks of feeding the system. Our conscience is mortgaged to money.
Dear Indians, The article is highly thought inductive, calls for a greatdeal of introspection and pricks one's conscience too.... I am echoing J. F. Kennedy 's words to his fellow Americans to relate to Indians.....
'ASK WHAT WE CAN DO FOR INDIAAND DO WHAT HAS TO BE DONE TO MAKE INDIA WHAT AMERICA AND OTHER WESTERN COUNTRIES ARE TODAY'
Thank you,
Dr. Abdul Kalaam

Desperation to Perception Via Inspiration

How desperate I was to take a test online to know if I'm dyslexic..! Clicking the answers was becoming a great task as I could already sense the result. I felt as if I was weighing tonnes over my head. Though I don't show any reversals in numbers and alphabets, omissions or substitutions etc, yet spellings have always been a great task for me. I still use Microsoft word for spellings. I lack confidence while writing. Language is always a problem. I'm losing confidence. Gaining knowledge about something is becoming sin. Something's telling me that I'm dyslexic since the time when I attended the workshop on Dyslexia. After I finished answering all the questions I couldn't click on 'proceed for result" for this online test am talking about. Extremely tensed. I know it's too late, time can't be brought back, nothing can be done and I've been overcoming difficulties in studies since childhood, yet I wanna know the result even if am already 23. Finally I took a deep breathe and dared to click enter. The page took few years (seconds) to open and I felt not just my students, even the network is trying to test my patience. My eyes larger, mouth open, hand on the heart; set aback I was to see that I'm moderately dyslexic. Tremors all around, I felt as if I was in vertigo city..reeling sensation. I was falling into the infinite space, losing stability and confidence, no grip, dry throat, helpless and becoming sapless. Oh gosh! Why me? I started cursing myself why should I know about it. Better late than never I now know my problem. But then I suffered depression that night and next day. Hell upon............!!! What am I gonna do now?? Work better. My students all aged between 8 and 16 inspired me. What they must be undergoing? When at such age they're learning to overcome, at this age I need to be bold and stand high to inspire them back. When I told my student that I’m also dyslexic, this lovely little big boy told me "hearty welcome to dyslexia association". Aaah..He made my life. I'm no alone. I'll work, I'll sweat, I'll achieve, I'll stand forever, even if I fall everytime.

A quotable quote...
A genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration-Thomas Alwa Edison.

Following are the famous people who are dyslexics:
Muhammad Ali, Hans Christian Anderson, Harry Belafonte, Alexander Graham Bell, Orlando Bloom, Richard Branson, Erin Brockovich, George Burns, Jim Carrey, Cher, Agatha Christie, Winston Churchill, George Clooney, Tom Cruise, Leonardo da Vinci, Patrick Dempsey, Walt Disney, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, Henry Ford, Danny Glover, Whoopi Goldberg, Tommy Hilfiger, Anthony Hopkins, Bruce Jenner, Magic Johnson, John F. Kennedy, Keira Knightly, William Lear, Jay Leno, Greg Louganis, Jack Nicholson, George Patton, Picasso, Daniel Powter, Keanu Reeves, Nelson Rockefeller, Nolan Ryan, Charles Schwab, Will Smith, Jackie Stewart, Quentin Tarantino, Liv Tyler, Usher, George Washington, Robin Williams, Woodrow Wilson, Henry Winkler and Sans and her students. :)
