“Anger is temporary madness” said a wiseman. That’s probably the most precise line ever spoken about anger. I hate when people get angry. I hate it when I become angry. In my view, anger is a form of violence. A form of violence that is not punishable under law, unless there is an element of abuse in it. I have seen people getting angry for various things from the most trivial to the most crucial. For some, anger is a shield. It protects them from getting exposed or being challenged. Anger works as a poor substitute for logic and reason.

. . an Apple Macbook. About 9 months since I wrote here about my crush on Macbook, I’ve finally done it. I must say I love it to bits. It’s this milk white 13.3 inch Macbook. It’s design is so unique that from any distance, as long as you sight this, you’ll know it’s a Macbook. In the constant battle between the Mac users and windows users, there is an one liner from the windows camp about Mac - “it’s not the OS that sucks, it’s the users”. That’s because every single Mac owner is truly a proud...
By now, you must have a fair idea about my reading habits. In my case, the term 'reading habit' is an oxymoron. But I do buy books every now and then in the hope that I'd read them. One such book that I bought recently was Stephen Covey's '7 habits of highly effective people'. By the time I bought this book, it had sold about 15 million copies worldwide. That's how late I picked it up.
Though it's been a popular title for years, I never cared to see what those 7 habits are. When I went to the store last time, I just picked it up with a 'lemme look' mindset. I quickly went to the contents...

This is not an excuse for a post. I've been thinking about writing a post about the personalities I like and admire. So this is purely based on my scale of admiration for these. Also these are people that have entertained me, have taught me quite a lot in life. There is not even one female in this list. I didn't realise that until I finished writing. Now, don't pick me on that! The below list is not certainly in any order. Here we go now!
Andre Agassi: I'm a big fan of Andre Agassi. I liked his style before I learned that he had substance too. In 1992, I was watching and...
Deja vu? One of the many things science has not explained. I don't know how to call 'deja vu'. You can call it an experience or a feeling. Let me try to explain the term 'deja vu' for those who are not familiar with the term. Have you ever gone to a certain place for the first time in your life and have felt 'man, I've been here before'? Have you ever thought 'Wait a minute, we've had this very discussion before, in the same place with the same people, all exactly the same'?
It has happened to me, many times. There are places in different countries where I felt that I've been there before...
