The Curious Case of…

Short dictionary of misunderstood words

Woman : Being a woman is a fate I did not choose.What we have chosen we cannot consider either our merit or our failure.I believe that I have to assume the correct attitude to my unchosen fate.To rebel against being born a woman seems as foolish to me as to take pride in it.

Stay Hungry,Stay Foolish !

I have this assignment which is to pick a leader of my choice and elaborate on leadership styles and frameworks and blah ! For some reason I picked Steve Jobs.I realised that I didn’t know anything about him other than the fact that he’s the iCEO who made the iPod and iPhone !

For the past few weeks from whatever information I have managed to dig up on him I have become a fan and yes it has certainly created a Reality Distortion Field around me :mrgreen: When people ask me why I chose him my answer is “He made it big despite being fired from his own company ” Yeah as expected the next question will be “But how can that be? ” And before I know I end up narrating the story of his life. I never leave out my favorite Steve Jobs quote “Do you want to spend the rest of your life selling sugared water, or do you want a chance to change the world?:D

And now ladies gentlemen I am putting down his most renowned speech to date(or so I believe ! Correct if I am wrong ) I hope it inspires everybody just as it has inspired me :)

P.S : If anybody has any information on Steve Jobs that you would like to share with me please do so.My assignment is due next week :) Read the rest of this entry »

The Surfaces !

We believe the surfaces…but we fail to comprehend the fact that the surfaces are not who we really are !

But then again deep inside we love to believe the surfaces.

Wonder Years :)

Yep as a kid that used to be my favorite TV show :D I used to wait impatiently for Kevin Arnold to light up the screen .Not to forget how his whole world revolved around Winnie Cooper ;)
The narration in the background is what made it stand apart although there were a lotta things I never understood back then.Now almost everyday I watch the re-run and lotsa things make sense now :)

My personal favorite quotes from the series :

1.When you’re a little kid you’re a bit of everything; Scientist, Philosopher, Artist. Sometimes it seems like growing up is giving these things up one at a time.

2.’Traffic’s traffic, you go where life takes you’ and growing up happens in a heartbeat. One day you’re in diapers, the next you’re gone, but the memories of childhood stay with you for the long haul.

Me

Sometimes I wonder about my life. I lead a small life. Well, not small, but circumscribed. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven’t been brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn’t it be the other way around? I don’t really want an answer. I just want to send this cosmic question out into the void.
