Abhinav: It isn't about getting paid. It's about payback. And who made the "rule" that vengeance is bad? Come to think of it, if you are religious, or even otherwise, if you have read any religious book, God takes "revenge". He exacts his vengeance. And in your theory of "God", you paint God as the perfect being.....and yet, if as a human you imitate God, that's bad????? C'mon....

Apart from that, who made the rule anyway? And why don't I have the right to take vengeance? It's not abuot going out of the way to harm someone for revenge.....but if the opportunity cames my way to get back, I will......and, frankly, SO WOULD YOU!!!! Most people don't admit it. But revenge is something everyone desires. The reason you don't see it happening too often is that people don't get the opportunity...that's all.

All the BS about "it's bad to take revenge" and "Fate/God/Karma will do what has to be done" is exactly that...BS!!! And even if it is true, who's to say that I am not the agent selected by this Fate/God/Karma to settle the score????? OK, now this is getting long........maybe I'll post on this on my blog :D

Zarine: Every single one.....brilliant.....but you already know what I think about them.....perrrrfect....

Cheers!

Now I understand why my coment made in the Haloscan box vanished into ether.Now, I don't even feel like repeating myself again, but still...
That rings so true, Zarine, so very true!!
If I was to make a list of my own, quite a few items from your list would find a place on mine.Keep it up..
By the way, if you still need something centralised for the comments, you can try out fizbox.com, which I happen to use on my blog

@ Mike - Take over my blog's PR work ;)

@ Rajesh - Patience,patience...the day I get bored of this template,I'll surely change it :P

@ Susie Derkins - Lol,yeh can get what you are saying.But most of it has come from working with all sorts of folks in my B-School.Believe me,unless one has some set rights,the world is all ready to trample over you. I do agree,few of the stated rights might have to be negotiated with once I get to working,but the bottomline remains the same - I dont do anything till am comfy with it.

@ Sameer - Yeah I know,I did read that comment of yours on haloscan..and was shocked to see it disappear too :(.Hence those shouts!

Regarding the rights..well I feel,these are the pretty basic ones.After all,if one does not have the freedom to do what one to,as one wants to,what kinda freedom are we talking about? :)

A Mid-Life start – Down Under – Part 1

I didn’t know there was a template for a blog post in MS word. In the last 2 years, an idea which was dormant in my idea for about 2 decades or so started germinating. It was mostly watered by the birth of my daughter (that sounded weird) It was about migrating to Australia. There was something about this place which allured me. It was away, self-sufficient, least bothered, aloof, didn’t give a damn and it was both ugly and pretty. It was me in a lot of ways. I started the immigration process by visiting those visa consultants (a special mention of a friend, TJ, a discussion with whom helped me narrow it down) and then over the period of the next 4-5 months struggled through the documentation process. Husband complied wherever possible, but was mostly a sleeping partner in the whole process (that’s very unlikely of him, though. As I discover much later that he played along as he wasn’t much keen on migration, but did so on my behest).  Nevertheless, half of 2014 and a...

Dazed

At times I'm a little lost. Something is on in my mind, but I have no clue what it is. Moving ahead becomes difficult coz something is holding you back. Restlessness and anxiety take over. What on earth is happening? I feel like walking alone in the night. Guess that should soothe me down... Hmm. © Zarine.

Personal Branding

I want to separate out the word personal from branding. I think a personal brand is the moment when you start to lie. Focus first on the personal and you beat up all the competition instantly. Just being honest, being yourself, doing the work, applying the daily practice for just a few months, and your personal self will come to life more than it ever has before. You'll be honest with the people around you and that automatically beats all the competition because they’re too slick, too dishonest, too focused on their brands. You’re not focused on that anymore. When you come up with honest, sincere ideas for people, and you give rather than expecting to take, then you suddenly have separated yourself out from 99 percent of the competition. You win. And it’s that easy to do it.
