      She untied the knot of her spinal brace belt for her back pain in the morning. I did not feel anything special as it was one or two years since I started hearing the story of this pain. As usual, I said, let's go to the hospital. I know her pain will go away. She refused because she knows very well that I have no cash. I have taken her to the hospital once before because I could not bear to hear her pain. Then the doctor said she needed an MRI scan. On hearing this she was the first to come out saying that it needs ten thousand more rupees. I couldn't afford it back then too.  Then her usual dialogue was  "I am in pain!! " and my usual response was "Let's  go to the hospital." Today without any hesitation she was ready to leave and I got ready too. When we got there, the doctor wrote me some tests. When the final result came, the doctor said with a sigh that she had cancer inside her spine. At first I did not understand what I heard. When I look...

  One evening my mother made dinner after a hard day's work. She put a plate of eggs, salad and burnt toast in front of my father I immediately noticed, the burnt toast and, I was waiting to see if he was going to complain about it, but my father started to eat them, smiling and asked me how I spent my day at school. My mom apologized to my dad for the burnt toast. I will never forget his response to her: "Honey, I love burnt toast!" Later when I went to bed and my dad came over to kiss me goodnight, I asked him if he really liked the burnt toast? He hugged me and said, "Your mother has had a difficult day and she is really tired. She went out of her way to prepare this meal for us, why blame her and hurt her. "Burnt toast never hurt anyone; but words can be very painful! " We have to know how to appreciate what others do for us, even if it's not perfect, because it's the intention to do well that counts, and no one is perfect. -John Thiessen I lov...

I had a very productive and engaging sales management class today, I was so happy about the task we got  today from Giridaran sir, which is to find 10 or more negotiation techniques or lessons from a short video clip from the movie The Godfather. I was hooked. I have both read this book and also watched the movie. The following 10 lessons I learned on negotiation from the movie.    Intro : One of the best movies in the history of cinema by Maria Puzo, still considered the best. However I love the book better, the movie could not come up to the level of the book so is the case with most movies. But still the movie is something special and there is something more than just a movie.    After watching the above video I came up with the below points.  1. Always negotiate at the position of power : Vito calls Sollozzo to Vito’s place where Sollozzo is playing at Vito’s home ground so the Sollozzo don’t have any power over Vito. This is a key method to use while n...

Yes. I am doing it again. This is the third article or post I am writing something related to death, here I want to talk about all the people that are at rest or that passed away. Future is one of my favorite topics, I am always interested and also fascinated to know more about the future. The final event of my life will be facing my death. I will be just gone and the world will never see me again.  Mind-blowing isn't it. We all will be gone from this beautiful world someday. Yet we are still here now complaining and fighting. I always wonder about the people who have gone before us. I wonder where they are now, if they have a soul or an afterlife. Should they be around here somewhere? Who could ever leave such a beautiful earth behind. What is more beautiful out there than earth’s nature?  Dear Herbert Fingarette, I know you are long gone. I just wanted to say thank you for your lessons on life. I was moved by your story from the  video.  It would have been a privil...

  I wrote the above title about  three months ago and now it is September. I didn't want to write about it because  something tells me this is just the tip of the iceberg. Yes. this is a rant on things that could have been done before in the past effectively. Yet for some reasons we didn't do it.  I wanted to reach out to people and make them understand how serious the situation is.  I know most people are perfectly heathy and they will not die due to Corona. Yet we can't risk loosing our older generation to this disaster, that should not happen due to our irresponsibility. For the past 6 months I am spending my days in a room alone away from friends and family, I definitely want to see my family and be with them but due to many reason I don't want to go there at this time also on top of that I may risk bringing Corona to my home. I don't want to do that. I have done enough.  Recently I read an article by Muralee Thummarukudy, he is the Chief of Disaster Ri...

 Failed Failed ? Again ?  You crying? Isn't it your normal day? Haven't you learned the lesson yet?  Some are born to Win. Others to loose Like the ocean who tries to conquer the world. Keep trying all your life. Someday you will win. Isn't failure your bestfriend? The Only friend?  Get used to it. It is your normal.   Thirty years of failure didn't teach you that? You are not special. You are not entitled to anything You are nobody. You are zero. This world is for the fit and smart. There are billions who fail and one who wins. Try another million times, you will win last one. Pick yourself up. The time is ticking. A million more left. A few more seconds left.  Life is tough. Get tough.  You are a shame to the family. Others don't care. Pick yourself up. The time is ticking. A million try left. A few seconds left.  By Harison Xavier.

  Brain Fog  Hang in there. It's okay Just a bit more. A little bit more I don't matter. I am not important. The world will carry on. They will forget you. Enjoy your remaining time. The world is still beautiful Have you seen the ocean? Have you seen the sun set? Go back to your home. Go see your family That's where heaven on earth is. Your peaceful place.  Don't care about the people. They don't matter. They hurt you ? They cheated you?  Doesn't matter. Don't worry about it. Revenge is not yours. Revenge belongs to the God. They don't care about you. They are fighting their war. Let them care about themselves. Let them fight  Beware of that smile. Beware of that care. Smile back but walk away. Say No and walk away.  By Harison Xavier.  

Once a man saw a beautiful property and a mansion like house left abandon in a far away land . With the money he had in his hand, he rented that beautiful palace-like mansion. Then a thought occurred to him. He is the king of this palace. Then he started behaving arrogantly to everyone around him. He treated a poor man who went to see him with arrogance. The poor man asked him  "You who live in a rented house and yet you behave like a king. Ask your own conscience, what is the truth? Nothing of it is your own. But your appearance? Everything is of your own ... wow!" If we think about it there are people today like this. Sometimes even me.  Nothing on earth is our own. Everything is a gift. Our life is a gift from God, Or if you are an atheist, then all around us is a major accident and things around us just happened.  We are just tenants in this world. This world do not belong to us.  What's more, even our name is not for us, even it is for another person to address ...
