Few things disturb me longer than usual

One such thing happened in Delhi few months back.

I was in a car waiting at a signal and few kids were doing their own thing to get money from the ones in the car. These children were not more than ten years of age and one among them was a very small kid. Hardly 4years. And I sat there with my eyes brimming with tears.


They are kids for gods sake! At their age I was probably having a good time listening to my grandmother's stories or playing with my brother. Not doing somersaults to get money from unknown faces. What really hit me was the fact that people could actually be blind to the raw reality before their eyes. While I was here secretly wiping away tears, there was a couple on a bike and the lady was all praises for how cute the boys performed! I was completely numb!

When did everyone become so insensitive? Do I actually live in such a society?

I have no answers!

Being depressed is the easiest way out.
But overcoming it, is the most difficult job ever!

IT giant gone down the drain

Yesterday about 1 p.m. we got the news about the Satyam scam. And the entire office came to a stand still and everbody was glued to the net.

Not everyday we get news about an IT giant inflating its Balance Sheet! I mean, 7000 cr is not such a small amount for heaven's sake! Where did all the money come from? Where did all the money go? How did that escape from the auditors eyes? I don't even want to get into the details... Inflating cash and bank balances is no joke. How on earth did they do it? Its not like inflating fixed assets!

The auditors is another story in itself. As a person entering this profession, I look up at PWC. Obviously many of us, though now doing articleship in small firms, want to get into Big 4 for employment on day. But this issue raises so many unanswerable questions. Even people in the profession like Mr. Pattibhiram are shocked. I mean if they're guilty in any way (which i'm sure they are), then what is our future? Would I still want to get into a job in PWC or E&Y? I don't know! Seriously...

As my boss said yesterday, this is a black mark for our profession.

Trip to Parambikulam










There is just one word to describe this place - Mind Blowing!
If you are planning for a trip, don't have any second on going to this place...
It's truly worth every single penny.

PS : Detailed post coming soon :)

Why is it that others do not like the way you are but expect you to like the way they are?

Why is it so hard to understand others but easy to get upset when others don't understand us?

Why do we expect everything to be right when we are wrong??

Why do we even expect anything from others?
Why is it that we can't be satisfied with what we have?


Too many questions with no answers...

Those who don't have to travel on weekends...

Others were cursed with a vengeance!
Hmph!
