I've learnt....

That money doesn’t buy a lot of things…But all that it can’t buy is influenced by money.

That being right is more important than being kind… kindness is misinterpreted and misused. But …being right cannot be.

That life is simple but our expectations make it complicated.


That opportunity for one is a choice for the other…we never lose opportunities but we lose the beliefs.

That at the end of the mountain…people are still dissatisfied because they have left their loved ones who couldn't climb.

That today, hard work seldom pays in the absence of smartness… But uphold your values in pursuit of smartness.

That every simple thing we see or experience makes us the person that we are… we keep changing every day.

That life is simple to understand but difficult to define… Things are the same with everyone…just that the definitions differ.

That the easiest way for me to grow as a person is to look at the wonderful things around me amongst the difficulties, I face.

That love without time and time without love, will never show how wounds heal … but without them we don’t seem to exist.

That love and respect for a person makes him appear perfect…and absence of either will cease the perfection from him.

That emotions within us never die… what dies is the ability to emote...

That one should speak out his mind … right or wrong… polite or rude… only if the intention is not to harm.

That smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks when you want to…it gets expensive with your attitude and people may not afford your smile.

That I can control the way I feel…it takes only a thought to let go the worrisome ones...

That an advice on request is consultation… and loved ones don’t deserve a consultant.

That the best classroom is life and the learning it brings with itself.

That greeting smiles fetch you an image of weakness…But treat people with respect and they greet you with smiles.

That as children we were the purest form of god…as we grew up we fight to see who is the purest.

That all a person needs is to be loved … but we take them for granted and look for better things only to realize what you have and others don’t.

That god does not give you anything you ask or don’t ask for… our faith in him and our quest to attain it takes us there...

That no matter how simple life requires you to be... you strive to achieve something which is perishable.

That today, we introspect less and are more futuristic… daily happenings are monotonous…monthly happenings are routine…yearly happiness is planned….. We have stopped taking life in its stride.

That days don’t count when you want to make something happen…

That benchmarks do not define who is better. You need to be different to beat the best.
