Love Vs Lust

Apart from the fact that both of them start with an "L" and have 4 letters, they are quite some differences...

LustLove
Makes one LethargicMakes one Energetic
Treats the person as an ObjectTreats the person as a Being
Failure would make one angry & frustratedFailure could cause pain
Pleasure only at that momentMakes one joyful, *not* just that moment
Makes one selfish - Feeling that "What will I get out of this?"One puts the other person first - Feeling that "How could I be helpful!"
Could make one DestructiveWould make one Constructive and Artistic

Watching Squirrels!

Squirrels! Amazing creatures they are!! I love watching them!!!

They are one of my most favorite animals. That soft spongy body, fluffy tail, cute and sharp face would make anyone fall in love with them. Though they are quadrupeds, while eating, they get excited & become bipeds. They eat like gluttons and run like athletes. Given a drum, they even could play it well with the rhythmic motion of their tail. Their life is very simple – Eat and play. Why are human beings making our life very complex? We make it complex because we run towards many things in this world – Relationships, Money, Comfort, Pleasure, etc. Squirrels teach us a great lesson – “Nothing wrong in running. We are here to run! But in between – contemplate, relax, play and look around the world”

BTB, the tamil phrase “Anil Kunji” reminds me of my school and the nick name of my friend! I would never forget that funny story!!

Procrastination!

Procrastination has shown its evil face to me today!

Just thinking about why we procatinate - I know of 3 possible reasons (1) Mammoth Task (2) Non-Interesting task (3) Laziness

#1 - can be solved by being a bit methodic, following "Divide & Conquer" & seeking help from others

#2 - it's good idea to analyze whether to do or ditch the task *ASAP*. On the +ve side, sometimes, the tendency to procastinate might give you clue that you are not destined to do this. ;-)

Both for #2 & #3 - If the task is unavoidable, we might need to realize the hard fact that "Its ill effects are exponentially proportional to the duration & frequency of procrastination." So try doing it the moment, your mind thinks of procrastination.

I can hear someone say "Preaching is easier than Following..!!" :o)
