Anecdote:(Warning-long post) "A man used to take his evening walk by the side of a forest. One evening, he decided to walk in the forest instead. When he had walked a couple of miles, the sun began setting and the light started fading. He turned around to walk out of the forest, but to his dismay he found that animals had gathered on the other side. These ferocious animals started chasing him and to escape from them, he ran deeper into the forest. While running, he found a witch standing in front of him with open arms to embrace him. To escape her, he turned direction and ran perpendicular to the animals and the witch. By then, it had become dark. Unable to see much, he ran over a ditch that was covered by vine hanging from a tree. He fell headlong, but his feet became entangled in the vine. As a result, he began hanging upside down above the ditch. After a few moments he came to his senses and saw a snake sitting at the bottom of the ditch, waiting to bite him if he fell down. In the meantime, two mice appeared—one white and one black—and started nibbling at the branch from which the vine was hanging. To confound his problems, some wasps gathered and began stinging him on his face. In this precarious situation, it was found that the man was smiling. Philosophers gathered to ponder how he could smile in such a dire strait. They looked upwards and found a beehive, from which honey was dripping onto his tongue. He was licking the honey and thinking how pleasurable it was; he had forgotten the animals, the witch, the snake, the mice, and the wasps. The person in the story may seem insane to us. However, this tale depicts the condition of all humans under the influence of desire. The forest in which the man was walking represents the material world in which we live, where there is danger at every step. The animals that chased him represent diseases that begin to appear in life, and continue harassing us until death. The witch represented old age that is waiting to embrace us with the passage of time. The snake at the bottom of the pit is like the inevitable death that awaits us all. The white and black mice that were nibbling on the branch represent day and night, which are steadily reducing our life and bringing us closer to death. The wasps that were stinging the face are like the innumerable desires that arise in the mind and agitate it, causing us pain and distress. Honey represents the sensual enjoyment we experience in the world, which clouds the discrimination of our intellect. Hence, forgetting our precarious position, we remain absorbed in enjoying the temporary delights of the senses." Long live India, long live Indians and long live 'Dev Bhasha'.

Dear friends, It has been long since we spoke.The prelims examination is round the corner and you all must have been sharpening your knowledge and skills.Some you may have been in a good flow some may have been not upto the mark.If till now you have not given your best don't worry.Please don't end in guilt trip.Jo beet gayi so baat gayi.Tomorrow is fresh day and a fresh morning.Gather your strength and bounce back.It doesn't matter who is leading the race till now,the only thing that matters is that who crosses the finish line first.Suppose that you feel ab toh kuch nae ho sakta.But let me tell you,even that rings true atleast try to give your best shot.If not this the hardwork will help you to sail the next time. Don't give up friends as it ain't over until it is over. A few lines by Shree Ramdhari Singh Dinkar from the poem 'Vasudha Ka Neta", which may recharge your soul: बढ़कर विपत्तियों पर छा जा, मेरे किशोर! मेरे ताजा! जीवन का रस छन जाने दे, तन को पत्थर बन जाने दे। तू स्वयं तेज भयकारी है, क्या कर सकती चिनगारी है? Stay put! Long live India, long live Indians and long live 'Dev Bhasha'.

"Kintsugi is the Japanese art of putting broken pottery pieces back together with gold — built on the idea that in embracing flaws and imperfections, you can create an even stronger, more beautiful piece of art. Every break is unique and instead of repairing an item like new, the 400-year-old technique actually highlights the "scars" as a part of the design. Using this as a metaphor for healing ourselves teaches us an important lesson: Sometimes in the process of repairing things that have broken, we actually create something more unique, beautiful and resilient." Bottom line:One should always be ready to own their failures and try to learn from them.Patience and perseverance are the key ingredients for accomplishing the goal.Even in sports not every match can be won,so one has to learn to accept defeat with grace.In the field of interpersonal relationships one has to accept each other's flaws and strive to be a better person with each passing day.
