Tried v/s Tired

Slight changes in the position of alphabets in the words “Tried and Tired”, make a lot of difference in the sentences constructed using them. A spider taught Robert Bruce to “If at first you don't succeed, try try again”. Had the spider given up by saying “I am tired”, Robert Bruce would have never won the battle against the English.

My activities during the last few weeks reiterated the importance of Tried over Tired. “3 Ps – Patience, Perseverance and Persistence” are the major keys to success. If you continue to persevere with lots of patience and persist what you have learnt in the entire process, you will succeed in your life, no matter what obstacles obscure your path.

Thought provoking lines from Paulo Coelho

That which is funny about man

By Paulo Coelho

A disciple asked Hejasi:
- I want to know what is the most funny thing about human beings.

Hejasi said:

- That they always think crooked: they’re in a hurry to grow, then lament their lost childhood, and soon loose the money they need to keep their health.

- They are so anxious about the future, that they neglect the present, and thus live in neither the present nor the future.

- They live as if they were never going to die, and die as if they had never lived.

Decision

What more can I say,
It has always been one way
Now, I have decided to stay away,
And consider others that come my way.

I have given him countless chances,
Waited for long for those passionate glances
Days just passed by,
Never did I get a suitable reply.

I have been waiting all this while,
For a relationship that was so futile
Soon I made up my mind,
To move on and not to bind.

What more can I say,
I never knew it will end up this way!!!
