Few Words

O

f late, I have realized that being a man of few words is the greatest of all virtues. Sometimes, stop making sense (yes, I stole it from Koffee with Karan - season 6) would be appreciated more. 

It's 2019

And here comes yet another New Year carrying cart load of hope and dreams. It also gives an opportunity to retrospect maybe introspect too. It lets us make resolutions and hope for the best. We all know this, don’t we?

My Thoughts

2.0 is director Shankar’s sequel to the ambitious Endhiran which was released in 2010. Much loved robot - Chitti - is back with a bang, this time to accomplish a more meaningful task (In the prequel, most of Chitti’s capabilities were used only to woo the lady Sana. Remember the famous Mosquito mode!).

Little Dots of Hope!

The pain you have gifted me is big as the as the moon.

But, I count on the smiles you have spread on my face which has always touched my heart and kiss my soul. They are many – as countless as the stars. Doesn’t one or the other star shine even on the darkest of nights? 

And those stars are my little dots of hope which keeps me going in life!

Reality Check

We often hear people say, “Stay positive”… “Hope for the best”…. “This too shall pass” and so on.  We are also sometimes asked to “Count on the blessings” and maybe realize “Everything happens for a reason”. Of course, then there are some other spiritual advice as well – “Its fate, what to do?” and that “God is great”. As if enough is unsaid, there is this concept of Law of Attraction which says that universe is listening and hence we should think ONLY positive. It asks us to be grateful and manifest what we want through meditation.

My question is – what is your take on this idea of “stay positive”… “Universe is listening”… “Count your blessings”… “Trust in God” and all that?
