Relativism

No two people perceive in the same manner. One's perception depends on the situations and the factors taken into consideration by oneself. The way a person looks at it at a particular point of time also depends on his emotional state and mental state. All these factors together play the tricky part of the game. This theory seems simple at first but it is more complex compared to the Einstein's Theory of relativity. :)

It is difficult to predict people's reactions, opinions and decisions. The main reason behind it is the complexity of relativism. Good and bad are relative terms. They differ with persons, events and conditions.

Consider the saying, "Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder". Beauty of a painting, to a person might mean "how good it looks, how vibrant are the colors and how perfect are the strokes "..  but to somebody else it might mean "how deeper is the vision of the artist". Both perceive it as a beautiful painting but the beauty indeed lies in the 'eyes of the beholder'. :)

A spoken word..

William Shakespeare said, "Four things come not back: The spoken word, The spent arrow, The past, Missed opportunity". I'm not going to write here my version of what he said. I'm gonna write how strongly I agree with his words.

A promise or a word of acceptance or a decision or something spoken in haste.. we just say it out. Sometimes, it might change somebody's future, it might affect their feelings or cause a huge loss to a huge community. When it causes such problems which are unexpected, we repent. We wish we could go back and change that 'spoken word' which in turn would change its consequences. But it is already out of scope. A word is as powerful as a sword. It works wonders to a person who is wise enough in using it. To the hasty one, it shows its adverse effects.

The spent arrow, the past and missed opportunity are the other three things, according to Shakespeare, that don't come back. I totally agree with these words. The value of something that can't be changed is known only when you really want to change it. In such cases, I feel, repentance is useless. It would be better to accept the truth and live with it.

P.S.: Thank you for reading it completely :)

People..

We meet people in different ways in life. From school to workplace, we meet strangers everywhere whom we later call teachers, friends, acquaintances, classmates, team-mates, colleagues, etc. Every person we 'know' today is a stranger at some point of time. When we meet them, we make impressions about them. These impressions sometimes turn out to be true, but most of the times, they end up as false ones. Somebody said, "First impression is the best impression". I don't know what is the 'best' part in this because usually the first impressions we make about somebody is by their looks, the way they talk and their body language. So, in a way these impressions we make about somebody are influenced by what he/she is trying to project to us about himself/herself. But as you get to know in-person about him/her you'll know many of their traits, some of which might leave you surprised.

Everything looks good through a binoculars, but when you look through a microscope, it looks different.

P.S.: I don't carry a binoculars or a microscope physically. I keep them hidden in my eyes.. :) :P

Blogging is not just Fun..

I started writing up initially only for a record of the crazy ideas, wonderful experiences, lessons learnt from life n the unending thoughts that keep me occupied. I enjoyed writing, so I didn't stop it. Today, when I read some of my previous blog posts I found that blogging is also a kind of talking to oneself. In this process we analyse the random things that would otherwise remain incomplete. Just as photographs capture the precious moments in life, our writings store the wonderful things which we would definitely enjoy when we read them at some point in future. Both, when we get back to them, would give us an experience of time travel.

Blogging is not just fun. It gives us a chance to express anything and everything. When you talk to somebody, they may not be ready to listen but when u write it down you definitely feel that you've shared it with somebody. In a way, it lets people know the real 'you'.

All the words I wrote above is only the analysis part. Writing up is fun. I wouldn't think about the above mentioned things when I write. I do it, 'coz it makes me feel better about myself. :)

P.S.: It has been quite a long time that I've written something in my blog. I spend most of my time with work these days. I'm not too busy but I've been neglecting 'the blogger' in me. Anyway, I'm back. (This doesn't mean that I'm not going to take a break from blogging again :D ).
