Live for the DAY....
Its Monday again, I feel this is the day when most of the people think rational. I was chatting with my colleague and the obvious question popped out was 'How was your weekend?'. Since mine was pretty good with watching a Tennis tournament, I expected a similar kind of answer....
Suddenly he became emotional and said that one of his close aunt who was 39 died because of heart attack!... She was very close to his mom and unfortunately he couldn't convey that message to her as she was in Singport trip...
He was feeling so bad and started saying, why do we work so hard in our job? Blink of an eye we are gone someday! Life seems so uncertain sometimes...
I responded him with the sentence, 'Everybody lives with a word called HOPE', n makes living!
He gave a reply for that... in his own words,
"Dont want to sound philosophical but i always consider that life of a mortal is a misery and everyone needs to find a handle to lead one out of the tunnel. maybe for some that handle is hope. i dont know. i am just rambling."
That reply shook me off..
Monday morning, I hate to wake up! or I hate to see myself working for someone else without knowing exactly why am I doing that!... Like the work - NO, for Satisfaction - NO, for Money - YES(to some extent). This is the scenario of my IT life! ... Things u love to do can only be considered as a hobby and have to squeeze time for that!
Again, Blink of an eye...... ANYTHING can happen!!... Yes, life is too short to wait for tomorrow! Sometimes I feel, "Live for the day" is very true...
Again, I am just RAMBILNG...........with HOPE.

When he was a captain, Dravid would say "We will think of session by session..." That explains why is he successful.
Some people usually answer I will take life as it comes....!! Thats a very neutral way of approach,
All greats would have attained a level in which they can cause what life has to offer.
Its a natural tendency for humans to escape a situation by giving reasons, but no one cares to know if his reasons make any difference to a situation. If these did, then there would be no suffering on the face of earth.
I dont consider HOPE as something to live with. Hope is a different entity. This leaves us with an optimism of having something someday. But when we live life for the moment, we need not have HOPE since we have what we are.
Very complex philosophy, huh? Forget it :-)
Good going Raghu, keep it up.
