The Eureka Moment!

The Eureka Moment is that special moment in time when you get inspired to become someone different. The change happens then.  The word Eureka is attributed to Archimedes when he realized how the king was cheated by the goldsmith. He was taking a bath in the bathtub and when he entered it, he realized the displacement of water by his entering. The rest is history, as they say!  Abdul Kalam, the erstwhile President of India, got his eureka moment when he stood in front of the aircraft in the central square. He then knew what he wanted to do.  Ramakrishna Paramahamsa looked above and saw swans flying in a line and swooned in the middle of the field and then got His revelation.  Siddhartha got it under the Bodhi tree and became Buddha.  My Eureka moment happened at the hospital window. I looked outside the huge windows towards the tree filled parking lot and saw the entire universe come down with all possible answers. I then knew!  Do you have your own Eureka m...

Is It Important To Believe In God?

Is it important to believe in God or some other phenomenon? No, there is no actual need to believe in God or some greater power! If I can have imaginary creatures like Harry Potter or the Minions, Rapunzel and Darth Vader, then can I not imagine anyone I feel like with supernatural powers? So lets begin with the premise that being an imaginary creature, God can still exist. At least in some wild imagination.  The idea that something exists without using your mind or senses seems far cry. The idea called sky is very sexy for everyone but does it really exist? It's just an illusion, yet we believe in it. We believe stars are strung or hung in there, so does the sun and moon. But there is nothing like a sky with various hues like orange or blue or even black! There is no sky, only space. 95% of it is so called empty. Likewise the atom, it's empty except for a tiny fraction of it which is filled! Yet we have very good understanding of an atom. We believe something's are solid...

Life Of A Single Girl In A Big Metro!

Life of a single girl in a big metro. Two sides of it. The unreal and the real. So lets begin! She got up early in the morning and went about doing her morning ablutions, then completed the chores for the day,  packed the meals, went to office, went about performing every task there with perfection, came back from work, did everything that the day demanded, duties that needed to be done were performed with élan, wound up all jobs at home, relaxed for a while, read a few things, answered her mails, did all the prayers during the various parts of the day, returned all calls, then got ready for bed! Before the last act of the day she took few moments to thank her life for every beautiful moments and wishing herself a very happy birthday, turned out the lights to go to sleep! Haha! Utopian dream stuff! Lets get real now!  Sounds very tough to do that above or does it sound easy?  Life is never lead by us so simply. We all crave for more and more. What exactly did you expect f...

Killing Me Sweetly!

So you have that chocolates and sweets hidden somewhere to snuck it in when no one sees? But you see, the one you are hiding from knows your nature! So stop hiding it. That doesn't mean you become shameless and openly do that.  The doctor has given you a strict warning to stay away from sweets and salt or maybe from fatty foodstuffs, yet the tongue loves its vagaries. Sinful food or just plain gluttony causes so many issues yet humans hardly stay away from it.  The world loves to present tantalizing and unnerving colors and enticing smells associated with foodstuffs. The amount of energies spent in layering the pastries and patisseries adds a whole loads of unnecessary calories. The weight carried by these delicious wonders concocted for sinful eating are just mind boggling.  You live to indulge and love to pile on. Trust your tongue to tastefully gorge on mouth watering stuff.  Just think of the following and you surely want to kill me now. Rossagolla, firni, mistid...
