Dheerthan: On My Way

On My Way

I Spent 22 Years of Time,
Completing Classworks and Homeworks,
Getting Assignments and Punishments,
Lived among Subjects and Projects,
Mending with Dictation and Presentation,
Only getting excited by Playtime and Lunchtime.
All in the hope to make a climb

Want to shout till i cant anymore,
cause nothing happened like this before.
Even though i hated it every bit,
i could never quit.
Pass and fail came in and out,
which led me to a serious doubt,
Why all this?

Got it answered by a #*@% 3 letter degree,
which made me only angry.
when one morning i wake up old,
i don't want to know i came from the same mold.
what in my life is more worthy,
than to say boldly
I tried or lived my dream

Last Cry

When the stars in the sky fade,
its time for the history to be made.
The coming is not the end,
...its the beginning of the scend;

Let my progenitor reincarnate,
and give the secrets of superordinate.
Though i should wander in mind,
my rivet is just to find;

There will be no reason to believe,
as there is no king to cop the thieve.
Me and my warriors will be slain,
but our lives wont be in disdain.

Importance of 500 rupees

I happened to browse through a video which in the most simplistic way explains how money needs to be spent. It clearly show an individual’s necessity is others luxury. Take a look at this video below which clearly show the gap which has to be bridged.

Each person has the right to spend their money in any way they wanted. But, the 500 rupees value depends on whose hand it is in. Like the video even I wanted to say “Think before you spend”. We don’t necessarily have to value the money every time but we can without thinking help the people with much bigger and better necessity than our own. We could vow ourselves to give away the extra money which we get, like a few hundred bet between our friends or a surprise gift voucher or something of these kinds. To support someone walk a step closer towards their dream gives me more satisfaction than spending it out on a party with my extra cash. The rest has to decide upon for them. Good Luck.

Thiruvalluvar and his 1330 Tweets

I called up one of my friend yesterday and talked about half an hour or so. A heated argument on “less is better” took place. Somewhere she said “Twitter has a great number of followers just because it expresses anything within 140 characters most of the time  and it also happened in the olden days through Thiruvalluvar and his writings“. The idea raised from there for me to write about “ Thiruvalluvar and his 1330 tweets”.

Foremost I wanted to say who is thiruvalluvar. He was an author who wrote about 1330 verses which was called ’kural’ in just 7 words in each of them with 10 versus per subject which went to about 133 under 3 major sections. He is a notable Tamil scholar. He is said to be born anywhere between 2^nd BC to 8^th AD. The whole literature is called “Thirukural” which itself is translated to many other languages.

It is a book for all humanity and for all times. A world that lives by its teachings shall enjoy eternal peace, harmony, health, wealth, power, grace and bliss. The Thirukural contains treasures that lead to peace and harmony at home as well as the country. The Thirukural is a book written in the Tamil language more than two thousand years ago.

The great saints of the time were very fond of discussing ethical ideals. In the streets, in the taverns and public places, men gathered to apply their concentrated minds on the great question of what ought to be considered as good and right, and what as evil and wrong. Many religions flourished in South India during this time. Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism were the most popular. The caste system had not yet taken root. There was freedom of thought, ideas were readily and easily exchanged, and men were willing to listen patiently to points of view that differed from their own.

In a beautifully simple way, Tiruvalluvar wastes no time in talking about what is good and what is not. Goodness is purity of mind, and that which ought to be done. Vice is that which has to be avoided. A Strongly recommended must read. The ideas of the old age still stay to be true whether its thirukural or its ideology to communicate

Scribbled

I got an idea,

so, I studied Media;

Hoping knowledge is gain,

which is full of pain;

There is a lot of numbers,

which come like tremors;

Classes about technology,

affects my psychology;

Often, i have project,

which they always reject;

Groups do presentation,

filled with frustration;

Attending, classes on management,

needed more encouragement;

Sessions on Case Study,

feels like police custody.

They give me assignment,

which ends up in argument.

Each hour there is attendance,

which is like condolence.

Canteen is full of food,

which is of no good.

When there is no AC,

the class goes crazy.

Some time, Internet goes slow;

which becomes a big blow.

We have a few dress codes;

in which we look like bar codes.

The library is full of books;

which no one looks.

No matter what,

its my college;

because, it will

always give knowledge.
