How strange it is?????

Isn't it strange how a 20 rupee note seems like such a large amount
when you donate it to temple,
but such a small amount when you go shopping?

Isn't it strange how 2 hours seem so long when you're at Temple,
and how short they seem when you're watching a good movie?

Isn't it strange that you can't find a word to say when you're praying,
but you have no trouble thinking what to talk about with a friend?

Isn't it strange how difficult and boring it is to read one chapter of the Bhagwad Gita,
but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel ?

Isn't it strange how everyone wants front-row-tickets to concerts or games,
but they do whatever is possible to sit at the last row in Jagran?

Isn't it strange how we need to know about an event in a temple 2-3 weeks before
the day so we can include it in our agenda,
but we can adjust it for other events in the last minute?

Isn't it strange how difficult it is to learn a fact about God to share it with others,
but how easy it is to learn, understand, extend and repeat gossip?

Isn't it strange how we believe everything that magazines and newspapers say,
but we question the words in the Bhagwad Gita?

Isn't it strange how everyone wants a place in heaven,
but they don't want to believe, do, or say anything to get there?

is TV useful or not?????

All Tamil channel has a 'patti mandram' (debate) on any festival be it deepavali or pongal or any other festival... and u will definitely have a topic on 'tholai katchi payan ullada illaya?' (is TV useful or not) and one side will talk about the disadvantages of TV and the other the advantages... and the judge will give some judgement at the end of the show...

I don't know whether TV is advantageous or not but it has become an integral part of my life.... For a person who was always surrounded by people either at home or at office and now who is in a situtation to be inside the house through out the day anticipating darling husband to come in the evening.... TV is the only friend i have... not really that i watch any program but the tv is switched on through out the day, just to hear some sound and to keep somebody talking to me... :)

TV has become my companion these days.....

Funny....

Tried launching blogspot site.... it took a few seconds and i saw the most weird thing... All i could see was the blosgpot site but i could not see English anywhere but only Arabic... As i'm in UAE i thought maybe thats how it is... Then with some vague memory of the screen i'm used to, i tried to log in... I typed my user name and then my password..but then i got the message the password doesnt match for the username... I had recently changed the password so thought may be i have not entered it properly.... tried again..

Same error message... i got wild then checked the username and i was surprised to find my password there in the username field... was wondering how on earth did this happen..it took a sec for me, to realize what had happened....

As the site launched, i saw in Arabic. There were two text boxes.... being a software engineer and used to this i knew what to do next... Typed the user name in the first box and the password in the second (that is how it generally goes).... Was so used to do this and did not see what was getting typed.... Also the point that Arabic is read from right to left had just skipped my mind... the 1st box had been for password and the second for username.... and no wonder why i found my password in the username text field.... OMG!!!! Check out the drop down box in the top..even that is in the reverse man.....

Man!!! this is funny...

its one since i left India... :( Last month same time i was in the flight for the first time... It was a great experience... i liked it.... at the same time i hate flying also.. I liked it because i was above the clouds but hate it as it did have its spell on me...

Being a people person traveling alone just killed me... was just waiting when will i land... It was such a relief when i landed... i also hate the flight as it took me away from my family...

Being away from India now made me realize how much i miss it... I used to wonder why people living abroad show the feeling of being an Indian in a little higher percentage than those living in India... Now i can feel the same.... No wonder even i'm gonna be one when i land in India..:)
