Live by rules!

            Imagine you are about to cross that stage of life when everything is about to change. What if you don't care about the profession you work on, where you live, what you eat, who you care? Its finally about you. You only. Isn't that what you always wanted? Then why the set of rules to follow. No am not a teenager who is entering to his adolescence if that is what you are thinking.             Even as an adult you just have so much rules to comply by - get up at a particular time, go to work that you may not enjoy, attend the party that you no longer belong. At times you might feel that being all alone in some forest is the best way to enjoy the life. Who cares about the rules? Don't you agree.            Life isn't about these rules that you have imposed on yourself. Its much more than that. Freedom in every walk of life is what you would be thinking. How to get such a free life? Are w...

Enjoy travelling!!!

              I was going thru my Pinterest photos and came across a nice thought provoking quote on travel, which made me write this blog.  The quote was about the reasons why you should travel. Don't ask me if you really need a reason to travel. Well, that is what drove me to that quote. I always have traveled for fun, if not for anything else. At times my travel has also included visiting the religious places for some pooja.                                Photo Courtsey - http://www.migratingmiss.com/but-really-why-do-you-travel/              There is a saying in my native language (Kannada) "Desha nodu, kosha oodu", which goes to say to gain knowledge you have two paths - one by travelling and other by reading. I was brought up listening to this famous saying, so I always thought I can learn something from travelling. C...

Zodiac

        What comes to your mind when you hear the word 'Zodiac'? Is it the astrological symbols or the famous hollywood crime thriller? Irrespective of what you might have thought it is, I always found this word fascinating. The word by itself builds a different kind of curiosity in the mind. This blog is purely to tap that strange feeling which arose when you hear or repeat words similar to Zodiac.        Astrological Zodiac signs are 12 of them which y ou already know - Aries, Leo, Sagittarius. Earth: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn. Air: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius. Water: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces. These are considered as they belong to one of the 4 elements - Earth, Water, Fire and Air. Interestingly the signs belonging to these elements have their generic characteristics embedded in them. It is one think about believing in these signs and what they have to say about your future and the other interesting think is to let the stars do its duty while you t...

Don't you agree? We humans think we want to use our so called expertise in Science, Bio technology, AI to tap into every corner of what God's gift is.         Yes I am referring to today's news - Mustard is set to become the first Genetically Modified food  and Indian government is on the verge of approving this. To me this is a disaster in the making, asking for trouble from the mother nature as you are tampering the ecological system. Let me substantiate this...these Genetically Modified (GM for short) foods are pests/insects resistance. I might keep the bad pests away but what about those bees which help...

A company man - Korean movie review

    I love movies...Korean movies are something that I have been loving it more recently. My favorities being action oriented thrillers and a drama. I got to see all of them in one movie....it is called ' A Company Man '. It being a Korean movie was icing on the cake.     The best part of this movie is the contrast that is shown between job and love. Do you love you job if it has two sides to it? One side is to show the world that you are a simple metal trading company and on the other side is the deadly assassinations that are carried out. Look at the camouflage at the company level. Even better is the main character's dilemma that is shown who is initially torn between his murderous job and love for his singing.       The way the movie goes on is show beautifully with how the main character wants to save the 20 year old kid and his family. To what extent he goes on to try and save them. Interestingly the film is woven between the conflicts that ar...
