Good read is Good Food!

Good read is good food.

People and me know myself as a foodie and not as a profound reader. Last week was amazing. Got to read a lot of good atuff.

1. Marx
Got introduced to various ‘-isms’ and Marx was impressive. He says about class conscious. And its so very applicable today as well. Although he was widely interpreted by various brains and non-brains all across the globe. I just felt (no brains here) ‘class’ (with due apologies to the great thinker)has so much a different connotation in today’s applicable. Today class is not based only on financial criterion. Today geographical factor inter alia plays a vital role. Urban rural divide is one illustration. Among each of the same, specifically to India, creed, caste have their share. Such classification is endless, but isn’t that set to give birth to many –isms in future?

2. Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin
This is the guy! Gr8 ups and downs since childhood. Overcame all adversities. And touched as many subjects ranging from science, polity to marketing.

3. Fantabulous article regarding Meaning of life.
“Inner Voice“ in HT had this one on meaning of life. The article took through lanes of memories, what been done in life and for what in life? Simply put, article said value life and do good. And for the same the Author asked to imagine a place that one goes to feel calmness and think about one’s life. One friend of the author told him that he visits GRAVEYARD. And flash! Me too got that! That’s the place which tells us to be on the correct path irrespective of anything. And also teaches us to value each moment of valuable life.

Finally, all read provoked my thinking and made it worth. So I now commit myself to good read!

A Revisit

I feel good things should never die. And like everybody am searching ways to preserve that one good moment when I revisited happiness. Blog was the easiest.

One of my closest friends got into the prestigious Revenue services. And that’s not all. Because of his positive result came a spring full of zeal and enthusiasm with hope. Finally this lad’s all efforts got paid in a better way. Am so very happy for Madhav. And tell u Madhav, your result not only brought cheeer for you but also a sense of justice that finally BIG BROTHER takes care of all …the way one deserves. And am sure like me many who shared the table that evening, had the feeling that there is a place for everyone.

But am not penning down this for your praise,Madhav…That I have done many times since the day before yesterday. But to share my feeling that that was one happy candid moment in my life that I never want to forget and always like to revisit that feeling by reading this blog. And know what, I was missing such moments in my life since last few days (read : a year or so?) And definitely the path is now lit better it seems.

And finally should I say “Thank u”….well give me more such moments and I promise u also would have similar ones from me.

मला नवीन व्हायचयं...

मला नवीन व्हायचयं...
भूतकाळाला चक्काचूर करुन भविष्याकडे मलाही झेपायचयं...
निष्क्रियतेला डावलून मला नवीन घडवायचयं...
मला नवीन व्हायचयं...
इतक्यासाऱ्या बदलांमुळे न होणाऱ्या बदलाला बदलायचयं,
नाविन्याला सामोरे जायाला मलाही सज्ज व्ह्यायचयं...
जुन्या मला विसरुन,
मला पुन्हा नवीन व्हायचयं...
