Brain and Heart!!

Most of our lives are spent in gaining material knowledge. We have a plethora of options for what courses we have to do, what academics should get reflected in our resume etc. Most of us go on to be recognised as intellectual geniuses. But not once do we spare a thought towards developing our thoughts, our passions and the cause we sympathise. We never ponder over whether our hearts are tuned to the work we do using our brains. We go on getting recognised by various sections of society and praised for our work, but we never realise that we are not what we were. We feel compliant in the limelight of glory and conveniently forget that there was or is a life beyond that - a life replete with fun, laughter, flowers, rivers, honesty, even the smile of a child. We forget our actions are supposed to be directed for the betterment of humanity, not only self-glory. 

So next time you  find yourself presented with rewards and sky-high praises, spare a thought as to whether it is helping the child in your neighbourhood to be motivated by you or giving joy to countless other unknown faces...

Its the right time that matters!!

In my case I have discovered one thing -- for anything I do or wish to do, the right moment has to arrive. Its sheer stupidity to wonder "why did I not think of it before?"...So this seems to be the moment when I start rewriting my blog with a long siesta...I wish myself luck!!
