    Life is Like This

  • Win the world?
    This thing about timing is something every philosopher goes gaga about. Call it timing, call it luck, it seems all the same. The guy who loses out calls it bad luck that his timing was off. (You know, the product was ahead of its time and all that.) The guy... Read more »
  • Blemishless?
    You know, it's a rather tempting thing for people to think that a leader is someone who can do no wrong. Leaders, too, would love to consider someone - a friend, a follower or a trusted adviser - who can be trusted to always be right in what they say.... Read more »

    They keep telling you that good advice is normally bitter. It's like food, you know. Whatever tastes good is bad for health and whatever you truly hate the sight of is what makes you healthy. (Yeah, yeah, I know that you could find people who drool at the sight of... Read more »
  • An eye for an eye?
    I'd rather not be talking as though I feel that everything that's being said today was said way back in India by our sainted ancestors. It's sort of become a standing joke...what, in the idiom of today, may be called a meme...when someone, especially someone my age, says anything that... Read more »
