Telephone/mobile...sure is a boon...gee!

I never realized I loved talking to people I know; and that I could go on for like a really long time. People would tell me they are cell addicts and would stick to phone for hours daily. I pitied them. Sure I did and I do too. Because they suck out all the joy of talking after a while and catching up. :)

It was yesterday that a lot of positive facts about phone were born in my mind. Having got a postpaid connection after a lot of dilly-dallying , I called up my friend just to clear one small minute misunderstanding. It was fun clearing no doubt but in the process we cleared out all tat was discussed and thought spawning bubbles. Thus giving rise to a peaceful mind after the 51 minute talk and a probably a peaceful sleep too.

And then at the midnight hour saw a message from an old friend nudged me to call up again and finish of the pending talk planned since weeks. Poor friend who was planning a peaceful sleep for the night woke up just to not let absence of sun rays be a reason not to catch up with this parted friend. e spoke...for like another hour...giving quick updates on our lives and our classmate's lives and the movie updates.. etc etc. Though I was tired after so much exposure to the cellphone waves and database updation talks...nevertheless I was sure I am going to be fresh and happy the next morning.

Though the next day I realized was a drowsy one for my friends and I swore I would make use of daytime next time....the euphoria still persisted that friends dint mind me speaking. It motivated me to smile all day and spread some too. I was motivated to stay in touch with all my close friends no matter how many miles of earth have tried to test it. Well, Well...I am not following krishna - sudama principles...but i believe just one call from a friend can make someone s day at times. And I don't making one such call once in an while.

Touch wood.

P.S.These thoughts poured a week back.:).Wanted to update before my mind changes on phone being a boon ;) as I just read its disadvantages in a book I just finished reading(The White Tiger).

Learning...

It is said people learn from two sources. 1)from mistakes and 2)from others experiences. But either of these are not assuring any guarantee on the lesson learnt being correct. Different people may deduce different conclusions from different situations. Or may learn a different lesson and base their principles on this lesson differently.

In the end the result is that you rationalize your actions to put your conscience and the others around you to shut up.So this shows that point no. 2 doesn't really hold much guarantee of giving proper results. :) .

Whereas mistakes would get you to your inner voice which is the final voice I listen to when in a quandary. This doesn't mean I overlook peoples experience.They are useful to give you the extra eye you need at times before you make a final decision.

Hmmm.....well these are my musings....not overwhelmed this time...Guess I must start another blog for my musings. "My Musings"...a favorite title by majority of the bloggers.So that's not going to be it for me. :). No I am not a maverick. Just that My Musings are not for the world. Only when my musings materialize into a principle or a conclusion do I reveal .:)

P.S ok. Its midnight now and I am sleepy to write more.So concluding with a few words.... I am learning the ways of life and shall keep learning...Its fun. And ya I shall mix lessons from both the above sources in the amounts that my heart says is optimum. Adieu...till my pot of feelings overflows again and I run to my keyboard to type in some more words of wisdom from my life ;).(Pardon my immodesty)
