To: Kind People

                                “What has happened to Kindness?”

Many of us have been caught saying this. Though the matter-of-fact is that kindness has not completely walked out of the scene and one needs to have an eye for kind hearted people. Kindness may not necessarily pay back you in monetary terms, but the ecstasy derived from doing such deeds will motivate you enough to continue it.

I am darn sure just like me, you too would have witnessed such people who are kind and receptive to the needy people. So this post is dedicated to all those kind hearted people who have enough courage to stand up for such deeds. 

For instance, once I was walking my way back to home under the scorching heat of the sun that suddenly a lady on Activa came and voluntarily offered me to give me lift. Although I was not facing her (which implies that she didn’t even see my face which negates the chances of her knowing me). That is a different thing that I denied as I almost reached my destination. Or perhaps it was because of the mindset that we have grown with, where our mothers teach us to not to take lift from strangers.



Similarly, we all are aware of the behaviour of bus drivers towards the passengers. Until they utter few expletives their day is not complete. But then a well said quote is “Exceptions are there”. To my surprise a CTU bus driver not only respected people but also dropped a senior citizen in front of dispensary even when it was not a ‘destined stop’. On another day, A driver saw a girl running behind a bus (she was few meters away from the bus stop) and the driver waited for her to catch the bus and moved only thereafter.

Once one of my friends went to chemist shop and bought prescribed medicines. When she came back and tried to verify them with the prescribed medicines, it didn't match. So she went to another chemist shop to check if the given medicine can be taken as substitute but the shop owner refused. He even showed signs of concern saying that you should talk to the chemist who sold you wrong medicines because they may end up harming your health badly.



So, I would like to conclude on the note that “No act of Kindness is small” and we should try to help those in need wherever we can. You must be wondering that I've not mentioned any act of kindness on my part but I should let it be a secret ;)

“ First Benchers ” What comes to your mind whenever you hear this? Perhaps your mind starts portraying the picture of that studious boy with spectacles on who can only think of studies and studies only. Many of you would agree to this and possess similar mindset. Although, this might not be the case and just a pre-assumption. Let me give you an instance. You all must have seen those  pictures doing rounds on social networking sites  where first benchers are shown like geeks who know nothing beyond the world of books. We automatically assume that first benchers are like ‘ Chatur ’ (popular character of 3 Idiots); First benchers do not like to bunk lectures and….. all that stuff.  Busy in getting clicked or talking                                          However, the truth is that the position of the bench does not decide the type of student you are. Like, you may find that studious girl in your class who attends ‘mass-bunk lectures’ on any bench and not specifically

Growing forgetfulness

What could it be that made me take up blogging back again? Not some extrinsic motivation, but influx of considerable number of ideas on this topic. It happened to me about a month ago. I was so overloaded with professional work during those days that I feel I've suffered some loss of memory and even time. These days I am so consumed in accomplishing multiple works in a short span of time that my focus is diverted. Not that I've started to forget people, or something, but I used to remember the minute details of tasks that I executed during the day, which is sort of absent now. A few months back, there was a religious ceremony at my workplace. All of us reminded each other about it two days before. On D-day, I was clad in jeans-top - my usual attire - completely oblivious of the date. Then I spotted one of my colleagues, all decked up, wearing fancy suit and other cosmetics. Without any word spoken by her, I couldn't help, but utter, 'Oh it's that day'. I was lac

Hey Google

Somebody tell google to not keep expectations. They hurt. But I guess it's such a bad student. It keeps on notifying, "Expect rain around 8AM" and then be so brutal to my sentiments that all I can see out of the window is bright sunlight. Don't know how Google is dealing with its own life, given these high expectations.  Limited knowledge is a blessing in a way. Imagine the kind of scenarios Google would be evaluating, given it is aware of all kinds of diseases - the causes, symptoms and consequences. You don't have to know everything everytime. But this Google is stuck with endless knowledge base that is only growing  day by day  second by second, I must say.  And here we are. Still going into thought clouds and questioning ourselves endlessly in mere happenings of daily lives. For instance, a few weeks back I was afraid if I have kidney stones. I searched for its symptoms, I had one or two of them. I checked our anatomy and placement of kidneys, the pain was rou
