The Presumptionators

GOD it feels so good to be back again. Please let me breathe here for a moment and let me have this moment of satisfaction of writing again something after sooooo long. Hope you like this as well.

So this is not the storyline of the latest Terminator Genisys movie. Although the trailer looks interesting. But before we drift off of topic, let me tell you what this post is about. This post is dedicated to all those people who judge others without knowing their story. It is also dedicated to those people as well who have come in contact with these so called presumptionators, so this post is basically for everyone ;).

It is the innate sense of us humans to know what we don't know. It is this curiosity that has made us who we are today, all those inventions and discoveries are the result of this sense of curiosity. But somewhere in between this sense evolved into the urge of knowing it all. And for the questions that remained unanswered, we created stories around them just to put our curious mind to rest. Otherwise our mind would make us go crazy for the questions that remains unanswered. Now becoming a creative thinker is not a problem as long as you are not offending or hurting the sentiments of any person, group, or community. But many of us don't understand this and end up cooking stories about others just to keep our half ass brain satisfied. In today's world of Instant messaging, smart searches, Facebook, WhatsApp, and instant online shopping we have become more mechanical in nature and have lost that emotion of having empathy towards each other. Somewhere we've lost the ability of being human.

So what can we do about it? It's simple, be curious to find out the answers of things whose answer are not known to you like why are you here for? This is an eternal question we all should be asking ourselves, what's the purpose of our lives? I am very sure it's certainly not coz you have to know everything about everyone else. Be careful to keep that curiosity only to THINGS. Be happy and satisfied with yourself and your life. Just coz someone doesn't want to share something with you, doesn't gives you the right to presume things about them.

For people who are currently under fire from these presumptionators I've just one suggestion, be calm. Your reaction acts as fodder for the fires created by them. Give them sometime and act as possum, they'll soon loose interest in you and would eventually move on. Having said that, if they intrude into your life and derogate you a lot, then you have the full right to defend yourself and your self-esteem.

If you can't support in the upliftment of any person then avoid stepping on them as you never know when you would fall down. Don't be pathetic, be empathetic. Be humble and respectful towards others. Try to be a positively better version of yourself. At least try to include these things into your life for some peace of mind ;) :)..

Faithless Man

If you had been listening to the recent and so much hyped news these days then I guess you would have an idea what this post is about. In any way I would be telling you all why I am writing this post. The post is about Aasharam and his son Narayan. I vowed not to write an alphabet about those B*****ds but I am not writing about them.
Anyways while I was listening to those repetitive news bulletins I realized a few underlying fact. When Aasharam was caught, all the media was addressing him as Aasharam "Bapu" and his son as Narayan "Sai" but as soon as the police hinted that they both are probably guilty. Their tone changed, they shaved the "Bapu" and "Sai" tags off of their names. Earlier they (the media) had a defensive approach which changed overnight. The politicians who were once backing him up, now they all are gunning him down. The police who was once there for his protection, now they are running behind him, searching his closets for all the skeletons that they can find. This is a perfect example of getting caught in a hail storm the day one decides to shave off his/her head. I am guessing that this father-son duo has pissed off some very powerful and influential people ;) :P.
But the most important thing that these nymphomaniacs had breached is the faith of more than a million people. They single handedly (not literary) have managed to scar hundreds of people for life. Now many of you would say, "So what, they were morons and they got what they deserved." But imagine the seriousness of this situation. Majority of the millions of these followers are people who were earlier faithless and were probably doing bad things in the society. And then there were these women who saw their spiritual guru, father, and even husband in these terrible father-son duo. Now you know what I was trying to say, the amount of shock this duo has brought into the lives of all these people who followed them blindly. What is done is done, no one can't do anything about it. This post/blog isn't about making you feel terrible but to give you some positivity and of course give you all a piece of my mind ;).
If you were someone or you know someone who was a follower of these nymphomaniacs and you want to help them out then, tell them firstly that not to put their faith in someone else. There are many people in this world who would use you for their own twisted benefit. Instead of putting your faith in anybody else, put your faith in yourself and in GOD (the image less figure of him and not in any particular deity). Remember that everyone falls in life, everyone gets hurt in life, the important part is that you remember the reason for your fall, learn your lesson, and brace yourself for another fall. Let me put in a technical way, you all know that every software crashes at some point or the other and a patch is applied to it to overcome that particular bug. We as human beings are like that software, we all are full of flaws and all of us have some feature that makes us unique. At some point of our lives we all crash but that's because we need to overcome our bug that is there in us. Don't fret about it, just be happy that gonna get an upgrade. Now some of you would say why not we get all the upgrades in a single go. If you sulk so much over one fall like this then imagine what will happen to you if you get all the falls in one go ;). So believe in yourself, believe in the GOD, and believe in the power of your karma. If you practice good karma then, it may take sometime, but your positive karma would eventually fetch you positive results. Remember to keep smiling and have faith, it's not the end of the world ;) :)..

What A Great Couple They Could've Been..

Oh no I've not posted this post from my other blog Love Angle. This is the correct place and I guess it's the right time too. Recently I've encountered a lot incidents where many of my friends are in love with other people. Completely natural one would say but, it supposedly is a crime when you belong to different caste. Now you would say who believes in that these days. Go tell your parents that you are in love with someone, if they've an open mind then they would accept it but if in any case they want to deny you then I am sure this would be one of the reasons. They would all act up communal and would say things like "This guy/girl is not from our caste. What would our community say to us." Now I am not asking you to rebel against your parents, at many times they are correct, they are more experienced in life and also they are our parents, they always want the best for us. What I want you to understand through this post is why castism was invented in the first place. Well yeah not all ask these kinda questions.
If you had read some old books or watched those mythological serials then you would know that it (castism) existed back in the old days too. My idea of how it came into existence is that, that back in the day, when the Indian civilization was developing then someone came up with the idea of specialized people so that we can get quality work in everything. It's a scientifically proven technique that if a person keeps on doing a particular task over and over again then, that person develops specialization in carrying out that task. Now a group of some crazy lunatic people came over and fed into minds of general public that marriage into the same caste is a superb idea. Didn't anybody thought of the ideas of hybrids, I mean imagine a generation that has the nobleness of the royals, strength of warriors, and intelligence of sages. How can such a generation be bad for anybody. These days castism also goes by the name of community. I mean come on, aren't there enough barriers in finding that "special someone" that now you (parents) are putting pressure on them (children) that find someone in your own community only.
Anyways now you have an idea of how castism may have came into existence. It's one of those evils that has multiple heads. Like politicians use it to their twisted means, people use it for discrimination, and parents use it as a weapon to reject your lover :P. What I suggest is, why not just make an exception in judging anyone based on his/her caste and let's judge them on their nature, their family, and how they are as a person. Why not you look up your from the book which you are reading to how to judge people and actually see the person. Who knows you might actually like the person.


PS - This post isn't related to my personal life, my family has a "No Discrimination Against Caste/Community" policy :P ;) :).

Talent Or Education

So the other day I was getting my hair cut, oh yeah I do that too, although many of you may think otherwise :P. Anyways, there I had an interesting conversation with one of the hair stylists. It was that conversation which made me curious  to think about what is important in our life & obviously it prompted me to give you all a piece of my mind ;).

So in the salon they had this big LCD on which they were watching Indian Idols Junior. For those who were occupied with their work/life and don't know if such a show was aired or not, then let me tell you that it was aired on Sony Entertainment Television. Where, as the name suggests, the participants were children, below the age of 15. So coming back to the topic, the thing that bothered me was that children who can't differentiate between right and wrong were showing off their talents. But the boiling question is that can you substitute a kid's talent with a his/her education?

Now I am not against allowing a child to follow their dreams no matter how bizarre they may seem. But for me education holds a very important place in a person's life. Think of it this way, you are a superb dancer. But you can't dance all your life. After a certain age you would be out of the business. Now you would say, yeah so what, if I can't dance, I would make others dance & open my own dance school. But to run a successful dance school you not only need to know how to dance but also how to manage the other aspects of the school apart from dance. If you are thinking about money and management then you are thinking correctly. Now to some, the management part comes naturally but not all are like that and they are the ones who fade away. And in today's world you can't survive, leave 'growing' out of the picture, if you limit yourself to a limited skill-set. You've to be diverse in nature and skill-set as well. I think today what we need is to follow our natural talent as then work will be a joyous journey and to top that you will earn for enjoying. Remember that our parents laid a lot of emphasis on education. It's coz they foresaw this day, that times would be tough in the future and take my word it ain't gonna get any easier in the future as well. But today and in the future what we all need to focus is on our natural talent and education. Be a talented singer, dancer or app designer but along with that, try developing some entrepreneurial skills. These skills combined with your natural talent would take you to unimaginable heights. Also don't forget it's never to late. If you weren't able to goto school in the past because of any situation, but are presently doing well then, don't be shy to enrol yourself in some kind of skill building classes. Forget what the society would say or your relatives/friends would laugh at you for doing that. Remember they aren't paying for bringing up your family, also you can always take all that negativity and make it your driving force.

I know I went way off topic but the crux is neither mere talent nor education would enable you to survive in the coming future so be diversely-talented or if you think that you've lived your life then pass this advice to your kids.


Do leave your comments on how this post was and also what kind of topics you would like to read more about.

New Food Bill - New Scam's Smell

If you have been reading the news lately then you would know what I am trying to say. For those who were busy for some reason then it's alright, you don't need to worry about a thing, I'll tell you everything here with a little bit of piece of my mind ;).

So the government has decided to be generous to us and is offering a new food bill. This bill will serve 70% of our population and will apparently cost us $23 Billion per year. It was supposed to be debated upon by the opposition in the coming monsoon session but apparently it has already been unanimously approved by consensus without the bill being The government is aiming to bring this bill into action before year end. You know wherever I hear words like 'government', 'generous', 'new scheme', 'public welfare', all in a single sentence then all I understand is 'the government has succeeded in covering its last scam and has came up with a new way to eat up the tax payers money through there ponzi schemes'. There are few things that you need to notice here. The timing, the reason, the effect on general people, the schematics, and the aftermath.

The timing of this bill is very conveniently placed, right when the election is just around the corner. Looks like Sonia Gandhi is thinking of giving food to the hungry and win another term of election. This food scheme is prevalent since the inception of modern politics, give the poor people food, a bottle of cheap alcohol and they'll vote in your favour. But this is a super advance era of the bold and politics is the place for the boldest (baddest). So instead of being discreet, now they are being all legal in giving food to the poor. How much of that food the people will actually get is a different story altogether. But according to me the politicians are the poorest of the poor and hence all the more hungrier.

This bill has multifaceted reasons. That's right, like you and me the government doesn't believe in killing just 2 birds from one stone, they'll bring the whole flock down. Firstly it will help project a "concerned-for-the-poor-people" image. Secondly it will help clean the scam-stained garb of the government, at least in the minds of the uneducated or ignorants. Thirdly, it will project a good image of the Sonia-Gandhi-lead Congress in the international market, with a hope to invite more FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) in India. Fourthly Sonia Gandhi would say that "This is the brrrain-child of Rrrahul, he carrres for the common people". Finally after the elections, it will lay ground for another fodder scam, just like it happened few years back in Bihar by the then CM Laalu Prasad Yadav.

If you are one of the supporters of our honest government or just another simple-and-ignorant citizen, thinking this policy isn't meant for you as you are rich. Then I am sorry to break it to you, you are a fool. It might not affect you directly but indirectly it will affect all of us. As according to our finance minister Mr. Palaniappan Chidambaram (P. Chidambaram, I guess you didn't even knew that :P), there is already a 5% fiscal deficit in the 2012-13 financial year. This means that there is more expenditure and less income of just 5%. Think of it this way, you wanna buy something worth ₹105 and you've just ₹100 in your pocket so either you'll borrow it from someone or just pay that money later with an interest. Now multiply that ₹5 by billions and you'll get somewhere close to our fiscal deficit. Now to cover that difference, the government will borrow some from world bank and the rest will be laid upon us in form of higher taxes, higher EMIs which will in-turn lead to inflation.

Now if you were just stuck to the first paragraph and think that I am just against our government then let me bring some more numbers to your attention. According to a survey by BBC, apparently just 40% of any scheme reaches the common man in India. But we all know the number is much lower ;). Also if you are living in India or being reading about it for sometime then I needn't remind how many scams were unfolded during this term of our trustful, wise, just, and honest government.

I also wanna say that I am not against this bill, coz if it's utilized properly for the people who actually need it then it can help feed millions of hungry people, what more can one ask for. But we all know that ain't gonna happen. I also wanna point out that I am not against any political party, I am just against corrupt politicians. I am also not a supporter of Narendra Modi but would wanna say that people point fingers at him saying he's responsible for the riots in Gujarat, but he's also the one that has single-handedly made Gujarat a heaven for FDIs and Indian industrialists. And come to think of it, we know politics is a dirt hole and nobody is a saint there but what we need now is a person who is capable enough to get down in that hole, get his/her hands dirty and work in it. Even though Modi may not be a saint but, according to me, he has the guts to make the opposition shit in their pants. And somewhere in him, he has what India needs to progress in such rough tides. What do you think?

Also if these kind of efforts have been made for "The Lok Pal Bill" then things would have been a lot better and totally different. But you and I know that ain't gonna happen and all of us (including me) would do nothing about it. Maybe we'll organize a fasting session (looks more like a detoxification session to me), or do a candle march, or run our mouth on the idiot box, or maybe write a post about it (the mildest way to protest). And what are you waiting for, write a comment and show your protest.

Nik Wallenda And The Grand Canyon

After reading the title of this post if anyone of you remember this name 'Nik Wallenda' then I would say that you are well informed. For the rest of you, just read the post ;). While most of you were busy watching some of your boring shitty daily soap or some sitcom or catching a movie, I was watching the Discovery channel. Now you all will be saying "yeah we know that you are a nerd and all nerds watch Discovery, it's the secret broadcasting network of all the nerds across the globe, so what's new about it." Well nothing much, just a guy walked across the Grand Canyon on a tight rope. If you just raced through the last line, I would repeat it for you. A GUY WALKED ACROSS THE GRAND CANYON ON A F'ING ROPE WITHOUT ANY SUPPORTING CABLE AND THERE WAS NO NET BELOW HIM TO SAVE HIM FROM THE FALL. Yeah now I got your attention, you all just love it when I curse, don't you ;) :).

Now some facts about the guy Nik Wallenda. He is a professional tight rope artist. So don't go on walking on a tight rope just coz I told you about him ;). I'll not be responsible for the consequences coz it's dangerous!! His family is doing the same thing for generations. They started this in the 1700s, so they are much more experienced then you & I ever will be. He has 7 world records to his credit. One of the coolest things he did, apart from walking across the canyon, is he has walked across THE NIAGRA FALLS on a tight rope. But as a legal constraint he had to wear a safety harness. According to me, this guy is a mixture of Superman and Spiderman. As he battles the wind, all the distractions, and still manages to stick to the rope no matter what ;) :).

Now as much as I would love to tell you more about his career and personal life, I won't bother you with the things which you can easily Google or can read on Wikipedia or Yahoo. But what you won't find anywhere else on the Internet is my piece of mind ;) :). The reason being that I observe things and try to to see beyond the ordinary. And having said that, no I am not superman :P ;) :). Although I would love to be ;), bye-bye airplanes and mind it, I would be the first ever Indian Superman ;) :). Anyways, what I observed was that, Nik was chanting GOD's name at every step he took on that tight-rope which was suspended 1500 feet above the ground. He was asking for salvation from the almighty at every step. In return, GOD tested his faith by sending a strong breeze towards him. Now you would say, "This is ridiculous, why would GOD do such a thing." Lets not go into why GOD did this, we'll get to that later. The real question here is, how Nik handled this windy welcome by GOD. He did not welcome the breeze with open arms, rather he sat down on that rope and still chanted GOD's name. That's all GOD needed to check, whether he was bluffing or not and he wasn't. Nik was doing his karma and while doing that he never let go of GOD. Resultant, the breeze slowed down and he continued his journey. What I meant to say is that, when we call out GOD to help us, don't think that GOD would just come running away for you, he has lots of other important work to do. Rather the almighty throws us into harder tides, just to call our bluff. It's up to us whether we want to wait for GOD to come to our help and let us drown ourselves or to fight the tide and be welcomed into his embrace.

When Nik again started walking, the second thing which I observed was that he thanked GOD, continued his journey and also his chants. Again after sometime, the staff, that he was using to balance himself, got heavier and his feet began to hurt, he again sat down and asked GOD for salvation. Again GOD rewarded his faith by replenishing his energy due to which he was able to finish his act successfully. Now you would say, "If GOD believed in his faith earlier then why his faith was challenged again?" This time it wasn't his faith that GOD challenged, GOD tested his humility. GOD wanted to see whether he had grown arrogant because of the opportunity that he was bestowed upon or was he grateful for the gift that he had received.

Now, here I would like to point out a few things that, according to me, you should keep in mind. If your karma is bad then don't expect GOD to come to your rescue any time sooner. You'll have to wait longer then everybody else. But don't loose your faith, just hang in there, repent for your bad karma. Also if you think that your life is a constant struggle then it's quite possible that GOD has called your bluff ;) :). Or you are missing out on something which is holding you back. Just back off a little, try to join the missing puzzles of your problem, repent for your (known/unknown) sins, and ask for salvation. If you aren't bluffing this time then I am sure GOD will help you out.

If anyone of you think that today you are in a shitload of trouble then please be patient, don't loose your hope and faith in GOD, he's just testing you. Also if you are those lucky ones who are in phase 2 of your testing, then never forget your past, where you have came from, who you were. Also don't just sit at the sidelines all your life, get down, do what you always wanted to do. Don't be afraid of failure, just concentrate on your target and let GOD take care of the rest. Remember there isn't anyone in this whole world who hasn't faced any challenges, failures or retaliation (when I say retaliation, I don't mean retaliation against an anarchy, everybody has the right to be free). Everybody falls, but a real person is the one that gets up, dusts off his clothes and keeps on walking. Take care and keep smiling ;) :)..

Animals Are More Humane Then Humans..

You all must be thinking, "Now he has lost it completely, in his previous post he was talking about smiles and being human and now he will give his piece of mind on animals". Well yeah, you probably need it ;).

Yesterday I read this news which was both shocking and nothing short than a miracle, not like those fake magic shows that you watch on TV. Moreover it intrigued me on many levels that's why you are being bothered by this post :P.

In Ethiopia, Africa, 7 men kidnapped a girl, she was not to be found anywhere for about a week. She was kidnapped, not because for extortion but the intent of those sadistic bastards was to rape her and then forcefully make her marry one of them. I am sorry but I can't control my anger, moreover I don't know what else to call them. Suggestions are welcome, post it in your comments. I promise I won't moderate your valuable inputs ;) :). Wanna know what happened next, how some animals got involved, then read on ;).

No, those monsters were not eaten by any animal. Although I like your thinking ;) and I too wish the same for them, but we don't want these "GOD-sent" animals to have an upset stomach by eating garbage :P :D ;). They took her in the nearby jungle where they were beating her up very badly so that she submits herself into marrying one of them. She was crying out for help & out came 3 LIONS from the bushes. Oh yeah, the king of the jungle comes to your rescue if you are in danger, that's what a true king should be like, unlike our government ;). Those lions not only made those losers run away but they even protected her for half a day. Also when the police found her, the lions, who were there to protect her, just backed off and went into the jungle without any retaliation as if they were just waiting for the right people to handover her charge to.

Now, there are two things that I learned from this incident. First, that humans are not only harmful to the nature and other species, they are harmful to other human beings as well (although I knew that earlier as well). Also I am not saying it for our whole race though, there are good people as well who are constantly trying to make our world a better place. Second, that if we believe in GOD and call him in our hour of need, he will come to our help. Although his way of helping is very surprising and even questionable at times but we should never let go of our hope and believe in him. Also I want to thank GOD for giving that girl the courage to go through that horrific event and sending his finest warriors to her rescue.

By the way, that's how 70% of marriages happen there. So the next time you go on an African safari just make sure you have a lion by your side :P :D ;) :)..
