Good Things Happen To Those Who Wait :)

Hi all!! Me back after a long time...I was kinda busy.
Alls good and goin fine. Got good colleagues at the office..who as all those people around me...never get tired of helping around...yet. Thank you folks.

Well..wat should I post? hmmm..dunno..
Now dat I got a job...im out looking for a gal to spend my life with. Before, for others it was my joblessness that was an issue (I can understand..no harm meant)...they were always asking, always on my back.
Now its like "Its good and great that you got a job...but you may not get a gal for this pay". Im like..please!!
I can't quit right away for another job..and that too for gettin married. I know its hard to lead a married life with a meager pay. But I like this job..im not concerned with the pay.

Ah well..so I set out..for a gal. Now, I have many friends who are close to me. So I thought what if I ask a gal from my ''friend circle" itself. And so I asked...
She is a good gal but i wasnt sure. I used to see her as my sister actually lol. But I grew close to her and so my view changed. I told her I like her. She was like sorry.Hmm.. I was careful not to get too close her and that I had applied what I have learned " Never hope for anything you can't reach". But hey, she is still my good friend..which is great.

Slightly dejected, let down...I embarked for another try..ha!

I "enquired" to a long lost friend..if she knows any suitable match for me..but here's the twist..I also told her I dnt mind being interested in her either. For obvious reason..lets name her "Susan".
We exchanged few calls..got to know each other better.
The thing is..she seems interested..but she is a "family diehard gal". She said, ultimately she has to accept what her family says.Hmm..seems fair.
I feel she is no ordinary gal..that she has suffered a lot..still suffering. So, if God wishes..she will be mine..otherwise..i just have to move on.

Blokes... is it so hard for you to understand the women in your life?? Blame your brain..NOT them!!

How often have you thought if you could know what’s going on her head...but you just couldn’t. Wouldn’t life be way better if you could read her eyes?? They say...eyes are the windows to ones souls. But what they dint say is it's hard for a man to read the signs through a women's eyes. Maybe they dint know it yet and so... i forgive them :P

A recent article in Plos ONE  has now come up with a plausible explanation as to why it's darn difficult for us..poor guys..to discern the emotions of our females. As if women were not the masters in hiding their emotions in the first place.

And it all comes to the "hardwiring" of our brains. It says "...men are superior in recognizing emotions/mental states of other men, as compared to women."

This can be because they say "...accurate interpretations of other men’s rather than women’s thoughts and intentions, especially threatening cues, may have been a factor contributing to survival in ancient times. As men were more involved in hunting and territory fights, it would have been important for them to be able to predict and foresee the intentions and actions of their male rivals."

Similarly,"...when compared to women, men are better at identifying facial expressions of anger, while women are more superior in recognizing fear and sadness."

It’s sad that findings such as these offer us men no comfort but only accentuates our helplessness :(

Copy Editor

Hi all! I couldn’t blog for some time cos I was caught in the daily running of my life. I often thought to blog, but just couldn’t.

One reason for my absence is because I got hired as a trainee copyeditor by a private firm. It’s not that I like scouring for mistakes in other people’s work. But, it will give me a chance to look and enter into their thoughts, their perspective and hopefully their way of putting words into something meaningful. Besides, I love writing. So, it may help me in some way or other.

Entering into this profession makes me wonder how complex and vast the English Language is. Being a non-native myself, it intrigues me and at the same time confuses me a bit. 

To kneel down and worship grammar is not my goal. To rote learn all the rules and exception is close to impossible.

So here I am...entering into the world of words!!

Wish me good luck J

DNA Storage Anyone??

Its just mind-boggling to know how much data is being created all over the world. So, archiving this huge amount is obviously a concern. This is especially important for all research works. Magnetic media such as Hard drives and CDs  are currently the most preferred and used way of storing data. But again, these are either perishable or gobble up significant amount of power.

Here comes DNA to the rescue. DNA being the basis of life is not only an archive store but also a more reliable and stable form for storing data. Each and every cell in our body reads this data from DNA to carry out its varied complex functions. Here again its stability and robustness is highlighted .So why can't DNA be used to store your favorite song?

Now scientists have tapped into this notion and have emerged quiet successful. They can now convert or code all those 0s and 1s of your song  into DNA code (A, C, T, G). This is later decoded back to give you the  song or file back.

Isn't it amazing! But its not quiet practicable just yet owing mainly to its cost. We may have to wait a decade to see it in our everyday life.
I hope it catches on in the future!!

Way Of The Cross

Went to church in the morning to take part in The Way Of The Cross...a gentle reminder of how Jesus suffered .

Jesus said to carry your own cross and follow him? What did he mean? What if this cross happens to be the results of our own choice? Well what is this cross??

Is it the hardships faced during this life? Or can it also be the cause of our decisions?

I favor the former than the latter cos this is unavoidable while the other can be absolutely averted. There is no point in sinning and then claiming it to be the cross which Jesus refers. It's better not to sin than to bear the guilt and suffering caused by it. Or is it?

My sins mostly includes the carnal side which I have trouble to grapple with. It's not that I'm constantly sinning...I sin mostly when I grow stronger towards God or when completely ignorant of Him. For example a month long abstinence from physical pleasure or praying fervently.It's always here when I feel tempted and sin.
In this era, I think it's easier to sin than ever before. Distractions and false promises are everywhere. The easiest way for me is when a whim for lust takes over.I then only have to appease the desires visually.

I pray for all the young people in this generation...may they learn from their mistakes, to find true love only in God cos human love is prone to flaws.

My loving mother told me to pray and pray when tempted...so I pray and pray..only to sin later which defeats the whole purpose of prayer.

When sin enslaves me, I care not about anything Godly, which I think is a modus operandi of sin.

But rest assured..I wont and never stay idle..even though it may seem incomplete and hence unacceptable to God. God wants obedience and loyalty..in return He blesses us with His love.

Argh!! Why again I ask is it soo hard to follow Him in this world.

No pain..no gain!!

Being  jobless is one thing..accepting all the sneers from the society is another thing. Knowing when your mother wont be there always to support you and that she is not in good health is still worse.

But the blame is still on me.I don't and can't deny it in anyway. They are right in every possible way. But this constant attention is a bit to bear..hmm

My family asks where will I get a girl if I'm jobless. They say my age is galloping fast....yet again I can't blame them. They are right...poor me ..hehe
