How tough....

is to be a clean slate? A transparent person, someone uncomplicated and not complicate other situations? Several times I wonder why we all have to muck a lot of things up. Right from school, even in younger days I have known a few children having the knack to mess up things in other students project work, tell lies about some others and get them punished, and as we grow, it reaches different levels.
People fall in the way of others so that something good in their view doesnt happen to them. I have seen it happen to others, and most of the times you have to remain a mute observer. There is nothing that you can say, or do, and only hope that justice will have an upper hand. And sometimes, probably it is necessary for the person on the receiving end to go through such an experience. I read this quote somewhere "Please God, I have had enough of learning experiences" I can understand the thought process behind that now. Several magazines write on how to deal with bitchy co employees, those who steal your ideas in the work place and make them their own, make sure someone is ousted... at such times you wonder how these guys are happy while some are always at the receiving end. I guess somewhere, all this stems from insecurity at some level. Why cant those who spend the time to ruin others' lives spend the same working on the betterment of their own? Work on improving their own brains, skills, so that they have a justifiable edge over anyone else? Why cant people concentrate on their own paths instead of taking the trouble to walk up another's, place boulders on them, make sure they fall over and then probably come back to their own paths? These are times I wish that I went back to when I looked at the world with pink glasses. Now the world is definitely grey, if not black at times, with blobs of pink here and there. Maybe so that I appreciate the pink more, I treasure it more.

More than anything else, you have to be scared because you are a brilliant person. Whether the others will let you exist. But then, we all have to live in the hope that things will be better and that one day all bad things will end. And that justice will prevail'in the end'. But what about in between?

no one can be happy by making others feel bad.. though they seem to be happy. it's all an illusory happiness.

Brilliance will outshine evil and jealousy. Evil is always accompanied by suffering.
He reaps what he sows. The world seems to be what it is because of the way you look at it... Good Luck

it happens here.it happens there. it happens everywhere.
everything in this world has become survival of the fittest.
the attitude towards winning has changed from the best man wins to the meanest and shrewdest man wins.
so the best way to accept life is to become used to it rather than complaining.
i am not sounding philosphical but then i learnt it the hard way.
good luck for ur future

Thoughtful blog.You must have watched the vadivelu-parthiban comedy in which vadivelu puts up a board - "Ingu meengal virkapadum". Parthiban convinces him that whatever he has written is meaningless and makes him erase it word by word, finally there is nothing on the board. That is how life is. So concentrate more on the pink and have a watch on the black and grey and you will get along:)
