  • An eternal twist

    Read something that i thought was definitely worth sharing.
    If you had to choose between a woman you had met the day before and God, who would you choose? And the weaver said, The woman. Is there any doubt about that?
    And the mullah asked him, If you had to choose between a song and God, what would you pick? And the weaver said,The song, of course.
    And the priest from the temple asked him, Weaver, if perforce you had to choose one or the other, a beautiful sunset or God, what would your choice be? And he said, Isn’t it obvious? The sunset.
    And they asked him how he could blaspheme so. And the weaver said, Why sirs, God has eternity on his side, he can always wait. Will the woman, the song or the sunset wait for me?
    God’s Little Soldier, Kiran Nagarkar
    until next time, maybe there is no right answer…

  • Life is like That?

    Heroes – the only show i watch regularly.. like i’ve said before, i’ve always been a sucker for the superhuman variety… but okay, thats enough for context…
    last week, i heard a very interesting argument on the show. and since the premise was the choices we make in life, i was intrigued even more, and enought o make it a debate..it went this way..
    every person has a choice – he can have a life full of meaning or a life full of happiness… if he wants a life of happiness, he has to live in the present and if he wants a life of meaning, he has to wallow in his past, and obsess about the future.. both cannot happen simultaneously…whaddya think?

    until next time, the choices we make…

  • Heresy

    Not that i spray the entire area with snowflakes, or carry the flakes around on my black t-shirts, but yes, they say prevention is better than cure and i agree…
    and that is what took me to the clinically clear shampoo…. and i’ve to admit they have got the formula perfectly right.. if i continue using it, i’m sure i’ll have no dandruff problem..after all, if i have no hair left, where will the dandruff stay?
    Please note that this has nothing to do with the latest playa on the endorsement scene.. well, there’s the Big B, then there’s SRK, and then there’s tralalala….SwB !! Don’t believe me, read this… 🙂
    until next time, hair today…..
