amnesia.#happiness
04. Logic and faith,though not complimentary to each

10. Pain management varies from person to person.Some
grin and bear. Some may complain elaborately.There are some who delve into the
intellectual question,ie.why at all,of all people, they should suffer. A smaller
fraction may be inclined to extend this and ask (contd)#painwhy anybody should
suffer at all. There can also be some who may be agitated by this question,even when there is no pain
for them. They have apparently no place here.Must be heading for Himalayas!#pain
11. As tension mounts,logic recedes.#logic
12. Concern and worry are not Siamese Twins.They are
close cousins.Can be separated.#concern
13. Some problems get solved on their own if left
alone.Some get aggravated. It is prudent to know the difference.#prudence

Tamilnadu.Political bigwigs,party leaders and spokesmen,journalists,analysts and all have talked and
talked.But there was no serious discussion of the widelyprevalent corruption,and the dire/urgent need for
its eradication
#corruption
15. If a person's ideas die with him,he has lived in
vain.#ideas
16. The paradox in today's life,is that things of
intrinsic value have not much market value.#marketvalue

gets better
acceptance than upright behaviour.#diplomacy

want to suffer another failure.#failure

by society.But blind reverence likely.#think

are so full of truth, but because of the possible damage they can do.#momentous
22. You will have difficulty in appreciating what a
person says,if you dont know all that he knows. Also if he does not know all
that you know. It is necessary to understand where you stand.#understanding

questions about the motives of God,are considered to be out of syllabus in the
examination of life,and hence taboo.#life
24. More than salary and pension,govt officials make a
kill on bribes. But compared with the scope for elected reps, this is
nothing.#bribe
25. Some learn from personal experience.Some learn
from others' experience ie from observation.But there are others who never
learn.#experience
26.The provision for auto functioning of sex urge in
man,without any controlling switch under his command,is a calculated (cannot be
ill conceived) implant in the human body,for the continuation of the human race
with all inbuilt misery.#life
27. When you delete a thing it disappears from
view,and perhaps can be retrieved. When you destroy a thing,it is killed and

is "where is your heart?' and the answer is "left".This is circumstantial impact
on veracity of truth.#truth

we stand in opposite directions. So different our views on life can also be,if
our attitudes are diametrically opposite. #attitude

Krishna, though nobody has heard him in person.Such is the power of narative and
belief.#music

34. Some believe that if you are to be happy,you have
to be happy. Suspend all attempts to analyse the problems on hand,or those that
may arise in the near future, with probably slender prospects of solving them.A
little respite from reality can be rejuvinating for later action.
35. Robust self confidence not tainted by any tint
of arrogance,is praiseworthy.#ego
36. A report in TOI of 4th MAR 2021, regarding a rape
case,says among other things" the accused boy told the police he was watching
porn when he saw the girl".Now does it make any sense in punishing the boy
only,leaving scot free, the porn producer?
#PORNO

considered a criminal. If in life all things are ordained,who is to blame?#life

bearable in due course,unless severe.#pain

certain point,and precarious beyond.#money
43. Many politicians behave like direct descendants of
demons.#politician

of the computer where all work gets done. We never look at it.We look at the
monitor only. That is life.We are impressed with the man who delivers the the

same fortunate coincidence of events which a thoughtful film Director gives to
his hero!#god
