#26. Dilemma!
Either way we are stuck is it???
So two difficult situations in our lives…
1. when we DO NOT get what we want
2. When we DO GET what we want!
#27. Tug of war!
Woman is the personification of love.
Woman also yearns for unlimited love.
When she thinks she is not getting enough of it
She becomes a relentless seeker of it.
There is a worldwide belief that no two
women can coexist in peace under the same roof.
The reason…. the quest for love and its confirmation.
That is why there is always a tug-of war going on
between the mother and the wife of a man.
They want constant reassurance from him.
In that process they make his life a hell.
Why can’t they love the man from the same side –
instead of from opposite sides…tearing him into two!?
#28. Three words and two alphabets.
“I love you” has three words. “I told you!” also has three words.
But there is a world of difference between these two sentences.
The first one suggests that “Anything you do is always OK with me!”
The second one suggests “Everything you do is always wrong!”
So while the first sentence is the sweetest in the world, the second is the harshest!
The words ‘love ‘ and ‘told’ have two common alphabet ‘l’ and ‘o’. Just the two simple alphabets which differ, change the meaning and mood of the statements upside down!
What a wonderful power these simple words and tiny alphabets seem to possess!!
#29. Logs and the Waves.
Human beings are just logs floating in the sea of Life.
At times they are brought together by the waves of Fate.
At other times, they are thrown apart by the hands of Fate.
There is nothing that the logs can do about it but to cooperate.
Realizing this truth is the first step in our Spiritual Quest.
#30. The ‘Index finger’
The ‘Index finger’, ‘Aal kaati viral’, ‘tharjanee’ are all the names of the same finger!
It points out a person. It separates him from the rest of the crowd. It threatens. It gives ultimatums.The net result…?
It is branded unfit to take part in Japa Yagnam.
Yes! There is a small hole through which this famous finger protrudes out of the bag used for doing Japam, while the other ‘saadhu’ fingers roll the beads of the japa maalai.
Nobody likes to be threatened either by a friend or a foe!
The thumb may not register its opinions but the other three fingers invariably point to the person – who threatens with his index finger – and register their silent and yet unmistakable protest!
