Theyr graduating

There is this huge stadium filled with people chattering. More than half of 'em have a black gown on them. The sweltering Summer heat doesnt bog their spirits down. I see proud faces of parents and such faces galore. Its graduation day as usual and yet another milestone cleared for so many.

I wonder what its like to see your own kid grow up to acheieve something you always dreamed of. I have mostly seen it happen the other way round. The former is yet to happen from my perspective....

Children have a mind like that of a blank page and happen to be written into, by their surroundings and aspects of strong influence. Most certainly parents act as bars of reference.I have observed that a great percentage of where a person's character emerges from, depends on his thoughts and hence the nature of up bringing.

Having worked in the Neuro science department for quite sometime, living has become synonymous of learning,thoughts, execution and not to forget 'The Brain' in perspective for me.


So many of my peers around here are jumping companies, winding up grad school,dating,married, some planning to head back to India, and some have their head so deeply buried in their Laptop/PC that they cant perceive a world beyond.

Its funny how people take off from the same platform and perceive and make life differently everytime.

Why are weekend mornings so reflective? Is it me thinking or thoughts haunting me.....

Keep your chin up girl, you will see the day of your dreams sooner than you imagined.

A person character does not only depend up on his/her up bringing, it also depends mainly on the surroundings. A person is mainly influenced by the surroundings as he/she will spend most of their in schools, playing, or even watching TV. But for sure it depends on how much his/her parents will allow them make their own decision and how they correct themselves from the mistakes they committed.

Life is full of learning either it could be from the mistakes you/others commit. The key to successful life is “Reading” & “Running”. Reading books gives you the solution to all the problems in world either directly or indirectly, Running tests your “Will Power” to perform the intended work. “TIME” is the best teacher; but unfortunately she kills all her students.

Life is definitely not only about the learning, thoughts and executing them, but also the life is about enjoying them as if it is your last day.

Life is how you see it, two brains do not think identical like the way two persons DNA are not.

Thoughts always haunts you if you allow your brains run wild and it especially happens on weekends as you are free of class/research/work. Psychologically you feel like doing nothing other than covering yourself with blanket and letting mind run wild even though Sun has covered half of his daily journey.
