Ever feel guilty?

We all tend to see ourselves in good light .But are we really as good as we think we are??We go to these eatouts/restaurents for fun,pay money equivalent to small fortune(maybe to someone less fortunate) for bad food.Do we really need this?This is not my idea of fun!!Guilt comes in foray here .Yes we are guilty of being showy and selfish,nevertheless we are what we are!I think next time we can order less and help someone in need.I know it sounds like a cliche,but we can atleast try....

Depression

I came across this word when in college i was told to give a speech on any particular topic of my choice.I used to skip articles which mentioned all this.But i started to lookout for a suitable topic and started getting stressed,as this speech would make an image of me within class.Then in readers digest i came across depression stress..well i hit bull's eye here.This was to be my topic.So i started researching on it and voila it was an unending topic .Moving to real scenario stress/depression is common thing.Even school kids become depressed nowadays and take drastic steps like suicide.Is the world really that stressful?or we are trying to reach a point which doesnot exist?.Office culture too is a bad stress booster.High wage=high stress..most stress at workplace is not related to actual work,it is more on the lines of peer pressure and minor injustices.But best way is to deal these situations with detachment(difficult but possible).Emotions and work dont mix.(:P) .If you think why he/she gets this and not me!forget it...really ,thats life.Any kind of logic/anger/depression wont help.Someday somehow we all get what we deserve,even though we dont like it ....life goes on...

Injustice

"Justice " is just not a legal word.When we dont get things we deserve(according to us) it generally gets a reaction "its unfair,there's no justice in this world".Everyday life is filled with such instances.Lazy people moving up the corporate ladder(this is a wonderful achievement in itself).Not getting much needed leave as you were truthful enough to ask for it citing genuine reason.People constantly go on fake sick leaves.All these makes you ponder on "is honesty a really a good policy".I till now felt someday somehow honesty pays.But lately seems like i am on permanent hyperventilation for being honest.Truth too has become a rare commodity ,try to emulate it and you are deemed unreal and life sucks .But still somewhere somehow there exists a world which recognises such rare commodities.Lets hope this continues..amen..

Reflecting on life..

Have you ever come to moment when you think where am i and what am i?I guess there are lot of such moments.You go through life within a set path.Birth-->School-->college-->job--->marriage-->kids-->death(Lets call this a path).If you dare to devieate you are cast out or called a rebel.There are many underprevilaged people who envy some for this path.Sometimes we mightn't like this,but we should respect this path and consider ourselves fortunate to have this path.This gives us a choice to follow or rebel.Ofcourse most of us follow it,i dont mean to mock this.But surely we have other options.Now we ponder which part of path can be different.I think most easier is the "job" part.Nowadays most of jobs are restricted to IT.They are quite stressful in nature(are they really :>) .But lately the trend is changing and people are inventing new occupations.Some such titles are yoga guru,fitness trainer,adventure sport manager etc...But we will continue following our set path ..
