Emerging India

This is by far one the best motivational videos I've ever seen in recent times. Every part of this video is perfect. Each time I see a sense of abundance and optimism pervades...

School and growing up....

So, I've really started to enjoy my conversations and letters with my nephews and nieces... Here's a glimpse of an argument on whether school is the best part of our lives -which we all know is surely is, but only till we get out of school do we realize how beautiful school really was.

"WOW!!!!!!!! this is the best part of LIFE!!!
welll (insert bad word here(prob. something like damn)) This REALLY sucks. I think that the "real world" is going to be better. Sure theres more stress of "i hav to live off of wat i do so i better do it right" in a job but still at least (hopefully) ur doing something u enjoy.... and ur good at... right?
And u dont hav constant teachers wanting this and that POINTLESS stuff. With a boss u they have a reason for making u do stuff. And if u DONT like u boss u can QUITE (I think she meant quit)

I CANT quite school or quite HAVING a teacher (not till after high school (jkjk i would NEVER do that)) U can go find another boss for a dif. company or w/e
i cant just go find another school (yes i can literally but it usually doesnt work like that) and the best part of the really world ready

Here it comes

R u ready?

Here it is...
NO HOMEWORK!!!!!!!!!!!

I can deal with longer work hours as long as i dont have to wake u so early sure U have it bad think agian do u really mind wat u do i think not and i u DO mind
well then let me tell u WRONG JOB OPTION see i plan on doing something i wont mind doing and then thats why it will be WAY better then school and i no collage will Be MAJOR worse thats prob the worst part of life collage and the stress the freedom will be nice but everything else AGR!!!
Major bummer...

Anywho. I think u see my point but u prob hav a better grasp on life and time then me
i mean ur like twice my age right? So if u think im wrong..
well...
Do feel free to argue, correct me, disagree, have a productive discussion with me ext. Watever u want to call it. But please feel free to bridge ur opinion
:) Love,
Rachie"

Random Notes from Facebook....

Seven is my lucky number... so...

1. Its impossible for me to "forgive and forget".

2. In case you don’t know already, I will give up everything given the opportunity to travel constantly.

3. I learn a new language, a new art and a new hobby each year.

4. I’m extremely punctual (thanks to the ‘Hitler regime’ I followed back home). I do not hang out with people who are perennially late. I absolutely hate anyone being even 10 minutes late. Everyone’s time is precious and so is mine.

5. I’m an early-morning and a late-night person too.

6. Contrary to my new 'amnesiastic' attacks, I never forget!!!!

7. I was a devotee of Lord Shiva – The Eternal Lord of Sleep in my last life. I can sleep anywhere, anyhow, anytime and I’ve now earned the name – “Sleep-on-Demand”

Cinderella and her lost shoe!!

DEAR UNCLE PRAKASH,
I’M STILL WAITING FOR YOU TO RE-SEND YOUR E-MAIL. I DON’T CARE IF RE-SEND ISN’T A WORD IT EXISTS IN MY VOCABULARY BUT I’M PRETTY SURE IT IS.
FIRST IS MY LIST ABOUT WHY SHOES ARE GOOD SHOES

1. YOUR FEET WOULD BURN ON HOT DAYS WITHOUT SHOES
2. IT IS EASIER TO PLAY SPORTS IN SHOES
3. YOU’RE NOT ALLOWED IN SOME PLACES WITHOUT SHOES
4. THEY ARE MORE COMFORTABLE THAN GOING BAREFOOT
5. IF YOU NEED NEW SHOES THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT COLORS TO CHOOSE FROM
6. THERE ARE DIFFERENT KINDS SO YOU CAN USE THEM FOR DIFFERENT THINGS
7. THEY SHOW WHAT KIND OF PERSON YOU ARE

THAT IS A LIST OF WHY SHOES ARE GOOD. I’LL WRITE YOU MY STORY IN A DIFFERENT LETTER BECAUSE I DIDN’T HAVE TIME RIGHT NOW
BYE TALK TO YOU LATER
LOVE, SITA

We stand behind their courage
And wisdom at great length
We learn from their honesty
And celebrate their strength

On our feet, dance and shout
Our diamonds are forever
With pride we stand together
