On being judgmental




Mother Teresa had told, "If you judge people, you don't have time to love them."

Now here I've hinted the resentful incidents that happened so far, not a single day passes by without regretting them. I had been judgmental on my will. Took others thoughts for granted and presumed a whole lot of things which turned out to be unfavourable and highly embarrassing in the end. Unless you live that moment to the tiniest detail at the particular place, in that exact situation, you CANNOT or NOT SUPPOSED to pass comment on the other person, be that right or wrong. This is something which I have learnt in the recent times. Because words once spoken can't be taken back, even though you brood and feel guilty over it.

And you may call a few people, hypocrites when they don't reveal what there is on their mind, yes they might be pretenders but its in our minds to be less faultfinding. We should make a better sense out of all that. When it personally involves you, it might turn out to be fatal.

"Should've, could've, would've, its always easy in the past tense." So I made a note to myself, "Never let a word out of your mouth without forethought." And don't be a judge of others no matter who you are to them.

All I can say is I was Judge"mental".

Simple, yet poignant lyrics (II)

I've got a knack of discovering pleasant songs, excellent movies, endearing books very late in time, sometimes even after it's fad fades away. One such song is Perunthil nee enaku... The beauty of this song is that it relates to some very simple, unnoticed but pleasing moments in a our day to day life. The duet is of two people who sing about  what they mean to each other. There are some cute imperfections in Madhushri's tamil pronunciation but the male singer makes up for all that. Duh! Why do I even have to annotate the lyrics? It speaks for itself. ;) Perunthil nee enaku jannal oram Pin vasal mutrathil ne tulasi madam Vidumurai natkalil pallikoodam Vilayattu pillaigalin chella kobam Aalilla nalliravil ketkum padal Anbe anbe neeye (hmmm....)

Quote Wonderment (I)

I'm totally sick of examinations and stuff. World's worst stressors are exams. I've always had this opinion right from my childhood. Hmmm... So to get a break I was running through my old memories and thoughts. One such is the admiration for this quote, "Sometimes people are beautiful. Not in looks. Not in what they say. Just in what they are." --Markus Zusak The quote itself is amazing. Reminds me of so many things. And note that Markus Zusak's wonderful book called 'The Book Thief' which was a good read. Laziness blocks me from writing more. ;)

2 States - Oh please, no!

I don't know why I chose to read '2 States' over 'The Subtle Knife'. My copy of 'Subtle Knife' is sleeping in the shelf. I wish I had finished it off instead of reading this one. M' Okay let me tell why this book was so insipid, [beware of spoilers hehe!] Possible reasons why I picked up this book: 1. Thought it would be a light-read. 2. It involved IIM A 3. Curiosity to know the speciality of Tamil girls 4. Heard it is a slapstick comedy [ which is not, in any way] Top reasons why I disliked it: 1. Cliched plot with stale scenes. [Ithellam nanga 'Poovellam Kettupar' la ye pathutomm, Chetan!!] 2. Making fun of South-Indians went overboard. [where Punjabis were never hurt in any dialogues, a very feeble mocking was clear] 3. Nothing less than a Bollywood drama, too filmy! 4. Totally predictable. 5. Ananya herself [there're are a multitude of reasons to hate her, which I won't enumerate here] 6. The feeling of reading his p
