“When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, 'I used everything you gave me.” ― Erma Bombeck
I'm still alive. I cannot feel anything, but I can certainly hear everything. I have cancer. Brain tumour, to its severe stages. The people already consider me dead. No they haven't informed my family. I can hear them talk and they seem to plan on telling them this afternoon as soon as they confirm my death.
I cannot move any part of my body, not even my eyes. My heart skips almost every alternate beat and is slowing down every second. I can feel no pain. The doctors closed my eyes to prevent extra pressure on the optic centre of my brain, which was close to the sight of infection, earlier.
I know I am going to die, but I still am alive. I try lifting my hand, but I'm scared. I heard the doctors tell my family that even the slightest pressure in this stage can cause permanent damage, and I will eventually die. I do not believe them. I command my hand to lift itself, but it's impossible. One part of my brain, the ventral tegmental area, dies with that very thought of action.
My heart starts beating fast, and I can hear the beep of the machine go louder. All I can hear is the doctors panicking, as I can make out from their conversation. All of a sudden, I feel a low thud, and my heart stops. Within very few seconds, I lose my hearing sensation, and all I can see is darkness. I do not even know what colour it is.
But, I'm still alive, and they do not know it. I am energy. I feel very light, and I can feel negative. Probably those are the electron working. But, overall I am neutral. Within few seconds I feel something. I feel my senses back. My atoms clinch together firmly, and I can see light. A white light, to be precise. I fly into it. Everything else is darkness.
I have always wondered what Heaven looked like, or even Hell for that matter. Probably that is what I am heading for. As I enter the white light, I can see all the things that I had done as a human. Every single thing is playing on the fast forward mode. Wait, I pause. My family has arrived in the hospital and all of them are broken. Heart broken.
I look at them, and smile. No smile, actually. I am just a small collection of tight atoms, and the rest of them are trying to catch up with my other atoms. Suddenly, the white light vanishes and I come back to darkness, There is only darkness. I cannot move, there is no body to move. I only float. Like float in water.
Suddenly, I see yellow light, and a door opening. My friend comes inside, as I realise I am back to my old house. My uncle had brought this soon after we left it. I feel good coming back to earth. I float to another side of the house, when my friend gets so scared that he slams three fat books towards my direction. I am invisible, and all I can feel is a feather touch, and the three books fly past me.
I want to tell him that I am not here to scare him. Actually I, myself, don't know why I am brought here. I even call out his name, but no sound comes out. He feels it, I know it. Because the next second I see him under the bed, crying. I feel pity for him, so I head towards the main door of the house.
As I try walking past it I get stuck in the thick wood of the door, Or maybe because somebody does not want me to leave this place. I wonder why. I stay there, in one corner. Seeing nothing, feeling nothing, hearing nothing, and moving nothing. I have no emotions, no body to start with, and every few seconds I change forms into something different. My colour is transparent and I feel neutral: atoms are neutral.
I knew there would be no Hell, or Heaven, either. If there was, then why didn't I see it? Does God exist? Is he the one who transferred me here? I'll bet no, he isn't. I did not meet any one. I did not even go through any places. All I remember seeing was my life's recap, and the white light which brought me here. As I start thinking, I realise that these people of the house want me out of the place. They keep referring to me as Evil Spirit, and they also brought a holy man to do some matras to remove me out of this place.
After half an hour of the long religious program, I feel even more light. I feel broken when my atoms start losing electrons, and they turn into something else. Within few minutes I am totally apart. Every atom is no more, and every electron has ran into something else. With the few atoms I can recollect, I gradually lose my ability to attract my kinds, and all I can do is, brake.
Five minutes after the holy program, I vanish. I don't know what I am turned into. I lose all my memory, and everything I possibly had. Everything is dark again. Pitch black. The next second, I realise I am in a skin coloured bag. I do not know what it is. I am pushed outside my a force, and all I can see is doctors smiling. I start crying because I do not know what has happened, or where I am for that matter, too.
I look down, and I recognize my mother. I smile to her telling her as if I know where I have come, back to square one. And that is how I take rebirth as a human. Energy that I was converted into, had lost its potential, and had attracted itself into the atoms of a small baby girl.

You be the God
"Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward with the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence."
Did you ever feel like being a God? Do you know what it takes to be a God? Do you want to know how it actually feels when you are a God, and have the power to control everything? Do you want to be God? Well then, You be the God!
So now, you are a God. We will now give you a Super God Name. We will now call you "Lasier". (The name doesn't mean anything, so don't break your head into that!) You are given your special chariot in which you can visit any place you want. You are shown your personal cloud where you can stay, get fresh, and look around the rainbow. You are given a computer system which analyses every human's fate and destiny, name, ID, what each human is doing, and much more. You get to meet other Gods. You have 24/7 food supply, angels flying around you, and you can order just any fast food and soft drink you want. The other Gods first test your potential. They give you a office where you have to control the world, without anyone's help or advice. That's cool, right?
Well, if you are thinking you can kill anyone you want with just a click of your fingers, or you can grant someone's wish just by smiling, you are going to be kicked out of your job. It is not that easy folks!
You quietly sit on the chair provided to you, and you have a huge SLED (Super LED) filling up the entire wall with various kinds of informations. You are confused, so you just sit there. Suddenly, a beep sound is heard by you, and it looks like you have a notification. You look at the light blue square on which "1" is written, with your eyes, and the square expands and fills the screen up. You see a man praying, asking you to help his sister get married. He promises to give you sweets. You smile, and look at the bottom right corner. His name is "Shankar" and he is 31 years old. He is from Mangalore. You look down at your keyboard. There is a button for "Grant Wish". You click on it, and the notification square goes back to the its original size.
Just almost instantaneously, there are two more notifications. By now, you understand that the SLED screen works with eye gestures. You again look at the notification square, this time a split screen fills the screen. A guy from Taliban, and the USA, comes up. One of them wants his terror plans to work, the other wants his salary increased. You sit there confused. You like helping people, so you grant the other one's wish, and the split screen closes, and now you can only see the Taliban guy. You do not understand Arabic. So you look at the keyboard, and press the "Translate" button. He wants to plan a terror attack in his area, and he wants your blessings. Certainly, you do not want him to succeed, so you are confused.
While you are busy thinking, five notifications pop up with very little delay between each of them. You do not understand which to choose first. You look on the summary option on the screen, and it shows you what the humans want in one sentence. The first one, as we know, need his terror plan to succeed. The second blames you for his son's death. The third one wants you to deal with her husband. The fourth one wants you help him in his exams. The fifth one wants you to stay there by his side while he is fighting his life. The sixth one is telling the world that you will be happy if he spreads terror. You are confused and do not know what to do. You do not understand why people blame you for good, and bad stuff.
You grant the fifth one's wish, and sit there unmoved. By this time, your screen is filled with more than thirty notifications, and increasing per second. You search around the office for help. You find a switch called "Relax", and you press it. Immediately, the screen changes into a beautiful scenery from the forests of Africa. You see a elephant sitting with his calf. You feel better. While you are looking at the cute relationship of the animals, you realise how dependent the humans are on Gods. While you are busy thinking, you hear a gun fire, and just the next second, the elephant is dead, and the calf runs away. You feel really angry. The screen shows you six hunters trying to take away the dead elephant. One of them is heard by you saying, "This animal will make us good profit!". You feel really sad.
You decide to give them a punishment. So, you press the "curse" button. You come back to your normal job, and to your surprise you have more than ten thousand notifications just in ten minutes. You close your eyes, and you hear a sound saying "Gesture Approved" , to which you respond by opening your eyes. You see random judgements to random people. To your surprise the people who deserved their wishes to be fulfilled, they are denied, and the other ones' are fulfilled. You immediately stop the random judgements. Your notifications had come down from "10,233" to "346", in just a matter of seconds. You are stunned to hear all this.
You put the system on "God mode" and come out of the office. Some one calls on you, and you turn back.
"What happened, Lasier? You're not supposed to come out of that office!" You reply by saying that you are tired, and that you cannot take this any more. You tell him that there are so many problems to be handled in such little time, and that people take his name for every small thing. A mosquito bites someone, your name is called. Somebody dies, your name is called. Someone fails, your name is called. You did not know what to do.
He then replies, "That is why this office is always kept on 'God Mode'. Let the humans decide their own fate. They know to create their own destiny, and it is not our jobs to correct them. We have to show them the path, not walk with them. They know that what they give, they get. We gave them enough knowledge to understand that the nature helps you, if you are willing to help the nature. We do not have any special things to do here. Life is very boring and irritating here in heaven. You must have understood by now, right?"
You reply, "Yes. I kept wondering that what ever I did back there as a human, I thought it was Gods who made me do it."
He replies, "No, certainly not. I do have a book written on each and every human on the earth. But, I have also given the pens to you humans. You can decide what to write, what not to. Do you still want to continue, as a God?"
Next day, you are back as a human, and your memory is erased.
Keep thinking! Cheers!
P.S: All the names of the people, country, and the story is purely fictional. No real harm or bad intention intended.

Astrology
"We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born. Astrology does not lay claim to anything more."
One of the most fascinating studies of modern day's world is Astrology. Basically, astrology deals in The study of the movements and relative positions of celestial bodies interpreted as having an influence on human affairs.
Now, the real question that is bound on to the minds of the commoners is that "How far is astrology really true?" And since, Astrology has no scientific validation, we have to get serious about this sooner or later.
From the enormous amount of research I'v been doing on this subject, lets make the point clearer to you.
Now, which of these proposed ideas is true, we have to find out. Astrology is basically a form of science in which the practitioner makes some complicated calculations regarding the motion and position of the various planets in the solar system and make predictions on the basis of this calculations. But the concept of making predictions on the basis of calculations about a person's life and his forthcoming future is a matter of suspicion.
First of all, it depends on the exact birth time, which is I feel very difficult to get. Secondly, it is based on some complicated calculations based on the position and the movement of the planets. Generally astrologers ask you different types of questions to catch your problem and accordingly will suggest you some stones to buy from him only. Some say it is only a business.
Going back to the ending of 19th Century, there are ancient Indian Astrologers who have "predicted" the future of others as correct as to a point. Well, you just cannot call that guess work each and every time. The arguments, just never seem to end.
From the ancient world, it has therefore been argued that astrology began as a study as soon as human beings made conscious attempts to measure, record, and predict seasonal changes by reference to astronomical cycles.
Early evidence of such practices appears as markings on bones and cave walls, which show that lunar cycles were being noted as early as 25,000 years ago; the first step towards recording the Moon’s influence upon tides and rivers, and towards organizing a communal calendar. Agricultural needs were also met by increasing knowledge of constellations, whose appearances change with the seasons, allowing the rising of particular star-groups to herald annual floods or seasonal activities.
By the third millennium BCE, widespread civilizations had developed sophisticated awareness of celestial cycles, and are believed to have consciously oriented their temples to create alignment with the helical risings of the stars. There is scattered evidence to suggest that the oldest known astrological references are copies of texts made during this period.
By the 17th century, in England, astrology had reached its zenith. Astrologers were theorists, researchers, and social engineers, as well as providing individual advice to everyone from monarchs downwards. Among other things, astrologers could advise on the best time to take a journey or harvest a crop, diagnose and prescribe for physical or mental illnesses, and predict natural disasters
Astrology saw a popular revival from the 19th century as part of a general revival of spiritualism and later New Age philosophy, and through the influence of mass media such as newspaper horoscopes.
In the West there have been occasional reports of political leaders consulting astrologers. In India, there is a long-established and widespread belief in astrology. It is commonly used for daily life, particularly in matters concerning marriage and career, and makes extensive use of electional, horary and karmic astrology.
Astrology has not demonstrated its effectiveness in controlled studies and has no scientific validity, and as such, is regarded as pseudoscience. Therefore, it's not proven that Astrology is correct.
So, in the end, it's all up to you. Astrology does not predict anything in your life. It just shows a period where something is bound to happen, and it all depends on how good is the astrologer's guesswork. And since it's not an approved science, well, we have no reason to believe in it. And if are still not convinced, well then, keep believing in it.
That's all from this side.

- Many people readily believe in Astrology. Some claim that their belief in astrology was because of the experiences they went through in their lives. They say that the astrologer they have been going to "predicts" their future, and so far all is true for them.
- While, others ignore Astrology and consider it a mere business to earn profits by tricking the customers.

The Kind World
"Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse."
Think about a world, where all the people are kind to each other. Yes, that's right. Each and every single person on this earth is kind. What would happen? Will there be a totally peaceful world, or will that give rise to another kind of intolerable world. We are yet to find out.
First of all, it would feel awesome at first. Imagine that there will be no people left on this world who hate you or who will reject your proposal, or who will not agree to do anything for you. That sounds cool right. If you ever need anyone's help, you can always go to any person you want and he/she will be always ready to help.That's nice.
Then, you will not have anyone trying to pull your back, or any enemies, or people who criticize you, or people who trick you, or people who will always try to find faults in you. You will not have any people who are ready to fight with you, or people who will bully you for no reason. All kinds of people who are hated by others will vanish. That's safe, isn't it?
Third, since you have so many people to help you, you will never run out of contacts or resources who are willing to help you. That way, you can seek instant help since just any random person is there to hold your back.
Since so many people are there to help you, this might cause a bit of unusualness and awkwardness, and a lot of arguments. Let me explain. Imagine you are asking someone for help. At that same instance, someone else also hears your request. And before the first person is able to reply, the second person agrees to help. But the first person insists that he should help. The second person too insists that he should help instead. This will become an unnecessary topic for a argument.
Both the people start fighting to decide who will help, and whoa! You suddenly have a fight in this fully kind world! That seems weird right? Indeed!
That is not all, if you have so many kind people all at once, there will be nothing to prove. Yes, the value of kind people will decrease since all of them are kind. No longer will someone tell, "How kind he is!" or "Thanks, you're so kind!'. Kindness, will become something very common. So common that kindness will not be called "kindness" anymore.
You read that right. There will be nothing called "kindness". It will be like a common attitude that everyone shares. So ultimately, "kindness" will end even though it exists in everyone.
So, what my point was that, if every single person on this earth becomes kind, there will be no kindness left in anyone.
At the end, I would like to say that bad people are important. At least, for the sake of the existence of kindness. As the saying goes, "Truth prevails over false. But truth prevails only because false exists."
Hope that answered the question. Happy wondering, guys and girls!!

Doing just nothing!
"A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life yet."
Well, there's something freaky in store for you in case you have lost your mind reading my previous blog posts. So, what exactly are you doing when you do nothing? Yes, you read that right, what are we doing when we are doing nothing. Just nothing. The answer is as simple as the question: "Nothing".
If we go look clearly, our body is doing a huge amount of work even when we are not doing anything. This work is done so that our body's essential processes do not stop, and we keep ourselves healthy and running! So, how much exactly is our body doing when we pretend to do nothing? You'll be surprised that an average school going boy of height 65 inches and his age being 15 years spends about 1393.81 calories when he is doing nothing. That is pretty impressive, right?
That is not all, when you do nothing, you waste 60 seconds with every minute passing by. And if you are a couch potato, and spend an average of an hour everyday doing nothing then you actually waste 365 hours doing nothing every year. And believe me, in these 365 hours, you can do fabulous things, instead of just lying down, and doing nothing. Indeed, small hours get together to make a big year! Well said, nah?
To continue giving you shocks, let me ask you something, how many of us have seen those second hands in a clock stay in one position for a little longer than usual. This usually happens when we quickly look at the clock and then turn to look at an object away from the clock, and then suddenly, look at the clock again.The second hand would appear to move from where you first saw it, but in reality, you are seeing it after around 3 seconds.(This wholly depends on how long you look at the other object!)
Well, I would not go into details, but those fraction of seconds that our brain loses to capture, add up to an huge amount in a course of an entire day. To get you up your chair, 40 minutes of sight are lost everyday when we move our eyeballs. Pretty awesome, right?
Hmm..that said, I don't think that we would stop telling people that we are doing nothing. But yes, in the back of our minds, we would certainly know that while we are doing nothing, we are actually doing a lot of things unknowingly. Happy working, guys and gals!
