I created the file on Jan 02 2009. the computer crashed and I get this when i tried to open the same file again. 1601? You mean 17th century???!!!
So what’s with the New Year 2009?
So what if you don’t send a new year email out wishing the same statements like millions in this world?!
So what if you don’t send SMS’es like spam to all the friends on your phone address book?
So what if you have your cellphone turned off or your landline receiver down?
So what if you observe this new year day in silence and not really talk to anyone or answer any calls?
….will any of the above really change what you think inside?
….will any of the above really change when you deep down wish good for everyone everyday?
….will any of the above alter what is meant to happen?
The answer is NO… nothing will change because everything is as it should be. We need to take a hard look at ourselves and do what is the best.. Sometimes what is best could be doing LESS. Probably the undoing of a lot of things is to sit back and just dwell into silence and just let the apparent void(silence) do all that is needed in resetting the vibrations that went wrong, the tasks that did not succeed, the words that should not have been spoken.
To undo a lot of things, the best way is action, not in words, not in thoughts, not in so many of the outward manifestations or routines…but more inward.
I will do that this year…I hope you will too…
Had the chance to talk to my friend after a long time over Skype. He lives in California and it was way past midnight for him when we started chatting…What transpired were words of wisdom and something that I needed to hear.
The following is a brief transcript of the same.
He said, "Remember the true warrior is emotionless and that the maximum chance of success is when you desire nothing and give all.Emotion is distraction. Apply these statements to everyday life and everyday situations."
I said, "I need to…time in and time again…I get flustered with people pulling in different directions."
My friend said,"then apply wisdom in how you highlight that issue. Spend time thinking how you can convey that in a constructive way.Become a salesman of ideas, become a salesman of viewpoints and control your breathing at all moments."
I asked, "…salesman without emotions…if they buy they buy? and if they dont I dont have anything to loose?
My friend said, "No, passion is ok, emotion not ok.Your duty is to convey viewpoints and ideas in a very limited way - in a way that others are allowed to take the final step and connect the dots, instead of you.If you work on your breathing. all will fall in place…thoughts included.Embrace whatever it is that aggravates you the most. do it every day."
Truly what I needed at this juncture!
You probably have heard about it by now…Gmail +Tasks. Yes, you can add tasks from within your browser/gmail just like the embedded gtalk chat.
There are many other trial feature under Labs. Check it out.
Note: I am really note sure how effective ‘To-do’ lists are in general but then probably works for some people 
Would like to travel back in time..
When Gandhi got inspired
to fight for Justice.
When Mother Theresa heard
her inner calling…
When Martin Luther King
had the fire ignited within…
When the statue of liberty
was just completed…
When India’s Independence
was declared!
and the list goes on…
I need a Time Machine!
