It's Just A Drink  My thoughts on a problem that we are facing for more than few thousand years. Yes, Alcohol. I am writing this to find where we can stand when it comes to drinking, and if we could find a middle ground. I am trying to come to a conclusion using the stories of few of my friends and from the books and experiences of people. You might have heard this before, "it's just a drink", "just this one drink", "this is the last one" , "One last peg" , "I am stopping this today".  I have seen many of my friends who say this, they all wanted to stop at some point, but they never did or never could. They all started drinking just for fun or relaxation. Relaxation from what? A few were going through a very tough time in their lives. I had my first taste of alcohol when I was very young at the age less than ten. My dad poured a bit in a glass and mixed it with a lot of water and told me to taste it. It was so bitter. Yuck! We h...

                                  Introduction  I didn't wanted to write about this, I deleted this post before and I am rewriting it again but if I don't post it I will not get peace. This is a topic that is bothering me for a very long time. I hate to think about it, it consumes too much mental energy. And the research needed to find the truth is beyond me but that should not stop me from making my point or a first step. I find it very difficult to write about it.                                   I am an avid reader, I am keenly interested to know what is happening around the world. I spend minimum 2 hours reading all the news I can find everyday. If you ever read the same news from different source you will know how biased they are. The same news could be twisted to different forms...

Is there a life after death?  A short blog on my thoughts on life after death. Let me give you the conclusion right away. "There is no ultimate or one final answer for this question." Maybe the oldest ever question in the history of humans. "Is there a life after death? "  I am writing this to make my mind clear on what exactly is my belief.  Once a friend asked me if I believe in life after death. It was just a small talk and he was only expecting yes or no answer, I normally don't like small talks, I want deep conversations.  Anyways questions like these makes me think for a very long time. I wanted to explain him a lot, but when it comes to philosophy or small talk questions like this, there is no complete answer to it  and nobody cares about your thoughts. I just said; Yes. I do believe in life after death. This was because I won't get him bored with my long answer.  This question stayed with me, as a religious person I am taught from a very ...

I am not a fortune teller This blog would be a part II of my recent post Artificial Intelligence : Our future , my thoughts are going into every subjects and I want to organize my thoughts into writing so that I could figure it out what am I actually thinking. The following predictions could happen in next 30 to 50 years or even early. These predictions maybe too dreamy and unrealistic, however my question is what is really realistic about life we have now, we have cars that don't need drivers, robots that are deployed in moon and mars that are controlled from earth. Humans around the world fly. These are the things that were unrealistic hundred years ago. So let me get to the topic, and I want to inform you that I am not a fortune teller, and the content I share here may or may not happen in the future. The following are a few of my thoughts on how our future will shape. I am expecting even more incredible future in the next 50 years. 1. Universal Basic Income    ...

I been thinking about God and Science for a very long time. I need to work on a topic, God and Science, or to be more specific Religion and Science. This idea has been in my mind for a very long time. I must put it down in writing to understand more. This is a short blog on my thoughts on God and Science. I have written another blog related to the same topic before, however this blog is more on God and Science, the way I see it.  The fight between religion and science is not uncommon, I see it everyday, both are trying to prove the world who is better. The debate, fight, prove each other they are right. I believe this fight have been going on from the beginning of civilization. I don't see an end to this debate. No matter which side you are, you will never win over the other side with all the wisdom. Without further due, Let me get to the idea of God.  The Idea      I will draw a picture showing what I see God and the relationship of science, religion,...

I am writing this to tell myself that  "I am not the center of the universe".     I do not exist. I do not matter. I am not important. I am not entitled to anything.  I am given the greatest opportunity to be here, right now, at this spot of the universe.  Comparing me to the universe, I am just a bacteria or a particle smaller than an atom, who do not have any value or rights.  I can be ignored. I am easily replaceable.  "I" am nothing. Everything I see and feel are based on my presumption of life, I am wrong. I view the world through my eyes. I am not looking at the big picture.  That driver who honked at you, cut you through in traffic was taking his son to the hospital. That women who behaved rudely to her customers, was desperate to make a sale to pay her kids school fees. That kid who stole things, have not ate anything in the past three days. The elderly couple who were taking to much time at the bank  lost their home and savings ...

Regret                            I shouldn't have said it! I can't take it back now. I wish everything was just the way  it was  before . I am sorry.  I was just trying to put my thoughts through. I wanted to connect my thoughts and feelings with you and let you know how I felt. It was not an impulsive decision, I though of it for a long time and just wanted to let it out.  Within a few moments I found out that, I was wrong, my preparation was not enough. I should have given a deeper thought to it. I should have refrain myself from saying the truth.  Truth hurts. It's painful but it is for the better good. It would be fine if I have not said anything. Instead, I said the truth, now the weight on my chest is gone. Now there is a chance for better understanding and trust between us and also a chance for disgust and anger.  What should have I done? I...
