My Instant Friend

After long hours of work, I went to my bed room and threw myself on my bed hoping to get some sleep. There came an uninvited friend (a housefly) to annoy me. I don’t know where it came from when there was no chance of it entering my place. I didn’t mind and spread the bed sheet all over me leaving my face uncovered, then kept concentrating on my sleep. But the small creature started its silly work. I kept chasing it off but it kept bugging me with out giving me a break. If it knows the language of mine, I could’ve explained something to it b'cuz i was dead tired. Finally I decided, “Ok man, let me get this game over”. I got up and started chasing the tiny one for some time unsuccessfully. Have I gone mad? I’m chasing a little creature which doesn’t even deserve my attention. I felt embarrassed and went to sleep again, now I was little bit conscious. With my eyes closed, I was waiting for the fly to come and disturb me again. Nothing happened for a while, so I slowly opened my eyes to see if it has gone. But that stupid tiny one was rubbing its front legs and waiting for me to make my next move. I did one last desperate try and this time it was inside my hand safely. I almost lost my sleep and the reason for that is inside my hand now. I wanted to squeeze it to death. I felt it inside my tightly folded palm, trying to make its way out. It reminded me some of my bugging friends and I ended up smiling and laughing. With out having a heart to kill my new little enemy, I released it outside the window carefully and saw the fly flew away with its life. After making sure every thing is fine, I went to sleep finally.

My Answers to My Questions! (PART ONE)

I love to ask questions, but very few people are their to satisfy me with their answers. To your surprise, I’m one among them!! I really don’t know were the rest of them come from!!

Ok, here we go…..

#1) What is the meaning of life?

Don’t search for the meaning of life. Instead, go live your life and you’ll find the meaning. Everyone sees this world in their own way, and their explanations will be purely based on how they see this world! That is what we call perception. So why do we need to get any answer from someone who sees this world in his own way…? Obviously his answers wouldn’t suit you if he is different from you!

#2) Why do perceptions exist?

Everything had meanings, even before man discovered the language. The language taught us, or we used language as a tool to manipulate the meanings according to our wish!!

#3) How to explain myself to others in a better way?

You are not what you say you are, but you are... what you say you are not!
So it’s always better to keep quite. Let others decide what you really are.

#4) Why reading books is good?

I read books because; I want to explain all of my thoughts to this world in a much better way! (Manipulate words to make it interesting!!)

#5) What according to you is survival?

I’m searching for something which does not exist!
But I can create it! It may be success, money, love…..bla bla bla…if you cannot satisfy your heart, the list continues! (This answer has incredible depth than you think it has).

#6) How to satisfy your heart anyways?

I cannot satisfy my heart. But I can convince it! If we learn to satisfy ourselves, nothing will change in this world, every thing will remain the same. That one single quality is the root of human evolution. If our ancestors had satisfaction, human evolution wouldn’t have happened!

It is better to know some of the questions than all of the answers. (James Thurber)

maybe continues............!!

The Best Philosophical Proverbs

In my recent proverbs hunt over the net, I came across some beautiful philosophical proverbs. I would like to share'em with you in my blog. Some proverbs are very small, but not there meanings!

The fish trap exists because of the fish. Once you've gotten the fish you can forget the trap. The rabbit snare exists because of the rabbit. Once you've gotten the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words exist because of meaning. Once you've gotten the meaning, you can forget the words. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words so I can talk with him? (Chuang Tzu )

If man has the ability to make others believe whatever he wishes, then he would say, he is God! Just because he doesn't have that power, he says that there is God! - Jose (author of this blog)

Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. (Henry David Thoreau)

Don't miss the donut by looking through the hole. - Author Unknown


It is better to know some of the questions than all of the answers. (James Thurber)

“CIVILIZED MONKEY……!”

(Long, long ago…….when a monkey started to think, he became Mr. You..!)


When "Mr. You" found himself in this world, he was very lonely… and thought of nothing but the survival. When he saw a creature of his kind (another man), he grew jealous . After the arrival of new competitor, desires started developing in Mr. You, and the result: he wanted to own every thing before his competitor does. Obviously fights happened...! They both fought against each other to prove the other one is weaker (like you see two dogs fighting for small piece of bone). Some times Mr. you won, but sometimes his competitor. This kept on…. Since no one was really ready to give up.

QUICK EXAMPLE:

For example, at your home, if you don’t have a sibling, you don’t need to fight for anything. But if you have one, even if you don’t want something you’ll fight. Remember?

......While this kept on and on.. there came a new sophisticated problem (I mean a girl :P). When they discovered that she was no good in fighting them, they started fighting again. But this time the fight was to dominate the “GAL!” Since she had no choice (physically unfit), she had to go with the person who won. You and his competitor didn’t know a big fact behind her! She was physically unfit, but she was growing mentally fit to compensate her physical weakness! When man had the physical power, he didn't use his mind much. When the girl discovered her physical weaknesses, she used her mind and managed to handle her man…. (also she learned to roll his concentration whenever needed!) That was the beginning of women evolution! Slowly…. but strongly (which men where not aware off!).

Mr. You had to take care of his gal specially more than anything he had dominated in the past. Because, if she doesn’t like Mr. You... now she had option to dump him and move with the other guy hanging around (this is the greatest all-time-problems for men :)! So he figured out a way to resolve that issue which is "slavery". He kept her as his slave and ordered her to do stuffs. You’s competitor (he also had a gal now) also encouraged slavery since he had similar issue!

World's 9TH Wonder

Are you giving life to your imaginations/thoughts.....?? You know what....? It plays a big role in creating a brand new World!! (It also matters what you imagine) :) Some gentlemen/gentlewomen gave life to their imaginations and the world faced a big transformation from the cavemen ship till what we are now!

At the first place, be a good person to imagine lots of wonderful things. Never stop with that, but give life to your imaginations. I don't believe much in world’s eight wonders because there are people behind those wonders, who had imaginations and gave life to it. Man's best gift is his imaginations, and the best gift he could give back to this world is, giving life to his imaginations.

You know why your heart tends to praise wonders?? Though you are not creating any wonders, there are imaginations within you. So when you see your imagination alive in front of your eyes, you praise it and call it a wonder (quite obvious). Wonderful, isn't it? Most of the people live in imagination but they die without making or providing any wonders.

EXAMPLES:
For a boy who is in love with a gal, his imagination is... that the girl herself is a wonder. And he never sits idle; instead, he tries to give life to his imagination by using a tool called love :)

For a scientist, his discoveries are wonders. For a sculptor, each of his creations is a wonder (not only the master piece) .... For a writer, his writings!

For a husband and wife, their marriage life (If they understand each other, together they can make wonders). For a father and mother, their child... For a child, for a student, for a...for a....

So likewise, there are lots and lots of wonders everywhere around us. So if you are not contented or satisfied with your life, and you are not seeing wonders, then who do you think is the problem......? It's of course you with no doubts. Maybe you are not giving life to your imaginations as a lover/husband/wife/father/mother/child and bla... bla... bla.

PESSIMIST:
Keep your eyes wide open and learn to see so many beautiful things around you. Don't push yourself down, rather, bring your self up and give your hands to those who are down (In trouble). If you still are pessimistic, then you would say, "I kept my eyes wide open, but I saw nothing beautiful!" :)

OPTIMIST:
"Go great guns!" spread the positive vibe everywhere and own this world the way you wanted!

Life is so beautiful when you live your life, if you wanna live your life, the world should be beautiful, If you wanna make this world beautiful....I have given one of the keys up there, so go try it! I gave life to my thoughts and here born an article :) I'm growing as a writer to create wonders. What about you Mr. 9TH wonder?? (I’m asking you!!)
