Made for each other or money for each other

Had it not been for money, it would have been the Barter system for exchange of goods and services. Money has been dominating every stage of our lives ever since it took the place of Barter system. Exchange of a good for another good is what termed as the Barter system. A slight transformation has been made and this system has been transformed to purchasing goods by means of notes and coins. It has become easy ever since money came into existence. Everything without any exception can be purchased with the help of money. A father, a mother, their progeny, and a good bank balance make a complete and happy family. Gender discrimination in their progeny requires the parents to have loads of cash in their account. This system demands cash as well as the goods from one side, a lopsided theory. Had it been Barter system, it would have been better. Male gender and a female gender, two sources of exchange. Development not for the betterment but for degradation. After all these years of development, I thought that the system would change and people would become more refined leaving all the superstitions, but it has worsened. Is it because of the supremacy of the Caste system, or is it because of the supremacy of the male gender? Here comes the question, love and marriage or money and marriage. Caste and money, or bride and bridegroom. Money is imperative for existence, but not for marriage. Bride and bridegroom are getting married and not money and the family. Think twice before you marry a person because you are marrying money and not the person. Relationship with money sounds awkward. It is money for each other and not made for each other.

Jackson's Apartment, Flat no 13

Hungarian blues, an American night, and now this is Flat no 13-Jackson's apartment. Radical or superstitious, not often do people come across a situation where they need to decide which way to go. This was the situation encountered by a newly married couple who are ready to embark on their wonderful journey called 'LIFE'. Lawrence and Elisa got married in Los angeles, had their honeymoon on the beautiful Hungarian island and now returned to start a new journey in life. A beautiful villa in the Jackson's apartment at the cheapest price, Flat no 13, and the same apartment in a rather low class locality at double the price. Tempted by the offer Lawrence purchased this villa and the couple started their life afresh.

A baby in 1 year time, everything going on at a quick pace, the couple were enjoying life to the maximum. Everything changed one day, a guest turned their dreams into a nightmare by revealing about the past this very aprartment has. Everything that he revealed was not right, in fact only 2 % was right and the rest all was the spice added to the story. Not willing to leave this apartment which had been giving them all the happiness in life, Lawrence stayed in the apartment fearing everything in life. Things changed suddenly, Elisa had met with an accident, fortunately she was saved with major head injuries. Doctors prescribed a 6 months bed rest for his beautiful spouse. This accident made him all the more vulnerable to all the misdoings, Lawrence had soon been depromoted to a lower cader. Immediately Jackson changed his place of stay to a house in the next lane and this time it was flat no 12. The next day his daughter suffered serious attack of cholera, but soon recovered. The next day Jackson enquired about the very apartment he had stayed in. Everything in contrary to the guest came into light. It was not as horrific as what the guest had described to them. What would this mean?

It is all in the mind, mind rules your senses and makes you do all the mistakes. Elisa was driving with all her mind preoccupied with the facts revealed by the guest, Lawrence did not concentrate on his work and had been depromoted. And her daughter suffering from cholera was due to the unhygenic food taken by her when her mother was bedridden. See what role the guest had played in making the family face a horrific life for two years. Another family enters this apartment and the same story repeats and this time it was a ghost and not a guest. Would you live in this apartment if given a chance?

Legacy, hype or real potential?

Survival of the best, or survival of the fittest, as propounded by Darwin's theory, seems to lose ground in this present generation. The best never rules, the better with a handful of hype and publicity is ruling the roost. Opportunities never come, but grab them when they come is the philosophical adage followed by our greats who have reached the peak of their careers. Success, power, money, are the three things that have been the criteria for defining the big, powerful and the omnipresent. Recognising a person's caliber, giving it a bit of publicity, facilitating his growth, and idolising him as your sole role model, are the practices seen here and there in almost all the fields. Good to have a person whom you would idolise and try to strive hard in building up your career. But recognising talent goes hand in hand with the hype created by the society, facilitating a person's growth goes hand in hand with the legacy behind him, giving the right opportunity to him is directly associated with his bank balance. The trend commonly followed in the so-called hyped bollywood or Tollywood, these days. The father and the son combination is a big hit amongst the poor audiences. A great piece of publicity by the starry father is enough to give his son starry airs. Good amount of publicity has been created, the next task is a little bit of hardwork, which anyone could do if given an opportunity, to supplement the publicity. A great screen presence with the son and father standing side by side hits the theaters. Audiences throng the theaters hoping to see the father in the son. The gullible public feel that he has in fact stood up to the expectations of his father, but not true. It is just because we have associated him with his father. Audience need to change and they are changing by recognising new faces that have no hype. A change for a good cause. Still a lot has to be changed. Recognise talent individually, not basing on the legacy a person has. All the hype and publicity is sure to create an illusory world of illustrious happenings.

Psyche of a psycho

Pyschotic, despotic, opinionated, prejudiced. Have any of you have these qualities. Well, most of us have and in fact a lot of them. A perfect dude or dudette can never happen, and similarly a totally imperfect human being never exists. In this fantasy world everything goes down to the way we imagine things. But what makes people imagine things, what makes them change from the way they used to be, to the way they are or the way they wanted to, to the way they detest. It is the just the perception of the things happening in and around our vicinity, it is just the impact of the conditions prevailing in and around us. Perception differs from person to person, the same situation can be perceived in countless number of ways. But only a few lead us to the right path. This is called the perception of a normal or a noteworthy character. The other ways of perceiving may lead us to the “ROAD NEVER TAKEN”. “ROAD NEVER TAKEN”, a deserted path not preferred by many. Now imagine traversing this path, at least once, how would it be? The outomes may not be as fruitful as we thought they would be. Living in despair, succumbing to failures, suffering pangs of agony, seeing all the joys go by us without even having a glance at us, does this turn you into a kind of psychotic human being or is it by birth a psychotic human being takes shape. What exactly is the psyche of a psycho? A nomal person changing his normal attitude into the way that make people drudge this character. This is purely based on the circumstances and anyone at any point of time can turn psycho, so beware of that fact. Each person is pyschotic in his/her own sense.

Love or lust

A trendy jeans outfit and a striking T-shirt with all funky accessories, Mr. Rahul is all set to rock the college in his purely innovative style of dressing. Style speaks for itself and Rahul has this ability to make style redefine itself according to his wishes. An ability that only a few have got. The first day of college is always a memorable day for anyone and it is in fact the day that changed his life. An innate sense of style is sure to turn many heads and this guy did turn many heads on the first day of college. And one among the persons who got attracted towards this guy is Ms. Esha, an apt girl for this guy, many would think, on seeing them together. Attraction on the first day and this beckons more glances to satiate the thirst to draw his vision. Not a bad idea, and in fact, an ideal of life, to make it beautiful. But, this is not the case of a single day, Ms. Esha is now totally flattered by his sense of style, and this made her give more importance to her personal attire. An absolutely ravishing outfits, with all the glitterings and a great feeling of someone getting attracted to her made her life all the more beautiful. Call it Lust in a sense. Should I? No, do not make that mistake, Please call it love, but how? It's just a pure attraction some may say, and some may draw a relation between the two by saying that Lust gives rise to love. I am not sure which way it is? I would put it this way. Maybe it is love, maybe it is lust. This is just based on personal opinions at that moment and you can't judge by reading this, you need to encounter a situation like this and just see how difficult it is going to be. If anyone of you has encountered a situation like this, please relate that to this blog, and then try to make a decision. Lust has nothing to lose, but love can change your life. It can create miracles, and diasters as well.

D txt tht Rules d wrld

Scintillating responses for a scintillating program, did you see the response for the outstanding performance of the young lad from the Scandanavian island? I did see that and it was outstanding. This is the text of the person bearing no constraints of space and time. Did u c d rspnse 4 d outstndng prfrmnce f d yung lad frm d scndnavin islnd? Hahaha, funny, how about trying this text to cut short d use f wrds. Oh man I am mising out on many shorcuts in life. Let's adopt these shortcuts to make our lives easier. This might be the origin of Short or Sweet messaging service, a wonderful means of shortcut communication. It amazes me that people are developing so rapidly in developing the simplest form of language. Well, we have in fact got accustomed to travel by displacement rather than by distance. Distance is always greater or equal to displacement. This fundemental is rooted so strongly in our brains that we always try to go by this wherever we are. Displacement rules, but distance is the mother of displacement. In a similar fashion Short texts can be used, but the long and actual usage can't be replaced, at least where it is required. The practice of using these shortcut services makes us forget the long form of words. I hope you don't get used to these shorcuts to a great extent and better not for a better living.

This blog rocks

It was rocking, simply, yeah I did see the party, it was absolutely rocking, and the girl in the white dress was really rocking. Of course she was rocking. Did you watch the recent release of Shah rukh khan? Well, oh man he was rocking with the six pack abs. Rocking, rocking , rocking, everything in this world without a blemish rocks. The usage of this word "Rocking" has become so popular in the parlance of English language that it is almost always used by each and every person to describe anything that captures your senses. Not ruling out fact that language has been tuned according to our comfort levels, but there is something what you call the rules of the language and redundancy. Rocking is the kind of word that is universally accepted, but same is not the case of other words. The so-called trend setters are making the language lose its charm by the excessive usage of high funda words where it is not appropriate. This is because I have seen such cases prevailing in the so-called testimonials you write for your friends, and in the scraps in the social networking sites, to give an appearance of a scholarly person. Use the words according to the usage that has been followed for ages, not according to the whims and fancies. Rules are rules as far as the language is concerned. When we speak everything is accepted, but when we write everything is a mistake. I hope that this blog rocks.
