Simple Truths















- God’s best gift to mankind – Choice.
- Sitting in the first row in school/college/university/theatre or even church for that matter doesn't mean you’re a nerd/un-cool/loser/lame.
- Anyone who thinks their lives are complicated and messed up - feel free to read up on Amy Whinehouse and Lindsay Lohan (Britney I give you credit for trying to redeem yourself.)
- Giving your 100% in everything you do, doesn't mean you are perfect, it means you know your flaws and you try to better them.
- Walking away doesn't make you a quitter; it means you have learned the hardest lesson life could teach you - selfless love.
- An ant, earthworm, even a beetle have as much right to a footpath as much as a dog or human.
- When in doubt turn to the most trusted soul – your soul, the answer is within.
- There are different levels, different versions and different explanations of happiness – all right in their own way I am certain of this now.
- There is only so much that materialism can give you - the rest is for you to discover.
- Life is hard and seems often hopeless – yet we make our own life the way we see fit or to make it sound better – we dig our own grave.
- The sword may be mighty and the tongue may be sharper – but no one can take away your silence and your tears.
- Even the most powerful person in the world is scared.
- There is nothing wrong with being a simpleton with small ideas and dreams.
- Till date I have not eaten anything which tastes better than white rice, dahi, papad and a little mango pickle.
- Music defines many of us - who we are, what we wear, what we say and how we say it.
- People who are rich and good looking who live in fancy houses and drive even fancier cars have problems too – we just seem blind to it for some reason.
- No country can bring about a drastic change if half their educated countrymen are staging protests and rallies outside their home country.
- Quite hypocritical for us to tell Biharis and Northern Indian’s ‘LEAVE Bombay’… sorry Aamchi Mumbai – and then cast stones at Australians and Canadians for telling Indian’s and Pakistani’s to leave their country so that they can get their jobs back.
- Try living your childhood dreams and be the person you want to be or who you saw yourself becoming before getting into the ‘Show me the Money’ bandwagon.
- Even if you are battered, beaten and broken – get up.
- Crying and showing emotions takes courage even though people who have never cried will call you weak.
- Die knowing you loved at least one person in his/her entirety.
- Every mistake is a lesson learned and every lesson is a memory which will help you think twice before repeating that mistake.
- It is much more difficult to find people with morals and values in today’s Gen-X culture.
- I know the world says otherwise – but be happy with what you have – brains and brawn.
- Last of all - Money is the root cause of all evil. Period.
