MAN knows that the conscience is always right.
But ironically, MAN still does what his conscience doesn’t want him to do, eventually harming himself !

Our senses are windows; windows to knowledge, abundant knowledge. This knowledge enriches us and gives us a better understanding of the what, the how and the why.
But is this knowledge enough to make a champion?
Apart from dedication, aggressiveness, patience, self-belief, a champion is also:
Picture Details: Lance Armstrong - He survived testicular cancer, a germ cell tumor that metastasized to his brain and lungs in 1996 to win the Tour de France seven consecutive times, from 1999 to 2005. In doing so, he beat the previous records of five wins by…..[more]

I think, I imagine. And these are always depicted as pictures and images that swirl in my mind. Sometimes they are good and sometimes they are bad.
The same goes for memories. They too are pictures and running videos in my mind. But why is it that I can only see what I had seen then, but not smell or feel the freshness in the air, the warmth in the sun; or hear the falling of the rain.
Is it because memories are just rewind+stop+play of pictures or is it because the eye is the dominant organ amongst the 5 organs.
What happens to a person who is born blind? Does he have memories?

Rahul is a child of 9 years and he has taught me a few things.
He is a grown up because he really doesn’t care about tomorrow or the past. He is happy and content with the present.
The other day, I gave him Five rupees (~$0.125) and he gave Rs. 2 to his parents, one to his sister, one he bought candies and shared it with his friends, the remaining one rupee he put it in his piggy bank because he likes it when the piggy rattles.
But if I am given Rs. 5, I’d want to invest it somewhere and make it Rs. 50… and from 50 to 500.
But, even then he is so happy and content.
Rahul loves cricket. And after school, he and his friends in the society play for an hour or two. A week back, he and one of his friends had a small scuffle during the game. They fought and then cried. Once the tears dried, they said sorry to each other and carried on with the game. The game finished in a draw as the ball got lost. These two walked along together talking about some show on Cartoon Network.
They fought, cried, and made up in no time. They have never heard of “ego’s”.
For Rahul, life’s simple; for me, it’s complex and complicated.
Rahul smiles, he has a really cute smile; I believe that smiling makes me more vulnerable and soft. For tough looks, one shouldn’t smile. Smiling also means that I am jobless…!
Rahul and his friends are the real grown ups.
I wish, children did rule the world. The world would be a simple place.
Grown ups always need explanations.
