We have the adequate resources, a strong support group & also a high potential --- but still surprisingly there are many of us who choose the wrong path! Why is that? Lack of guidance.....! Lack of support..! But, mostly lack of the right kinda people to talk to..... When I was in my tenth standard -- I didnt know who to go talk to... the same in my XIIth and the same after my college!!! Oh yeah...there are professors, but they always advised me to join the stream of their choice...none of them found out or tried to find out what I was interested in or good in!

Where am getting at with this direction-less post is that...:).. the need today for youngsters is good professional guidance --- not parental pressure or peer pressure, which is what most of the youngsters are subject to...! Guidance to distinguish the 'better' rights from the ordinary ones!!

On another note, John Grisham has shown us a new facet of himself through this book. He has a slow paced story which has no gripping court room sequences, no justice in the end and no miraculous pieces of evidence cropping up. But, this book has the biggest impact on me - the sheer injustice dealt out to Ron Williamson and others is shocking! I am glad he wrote this book...Kudos to him!

I know as you read this post of mine, things will not be very clear...but those who have read the book will understand. I am not able to put my thoughts in line here & express them well enough. I just hope that I have garnered enough curiosity for at least some of you to pick up this book and read it.

Hasn't there come a time when you think that everyone and everything around you is taking you for a ride...!When you feel so utterly and completely used that you wonder whether you really deserve your own respect forget others' respect.

I don't know about any of you out there, but this happened to me not once but time and time again, and you know I don't do anything about it 'cos I fear losing someone who is really really close to me.... I let them use me, let them take me for granted in return for closeness, friendship, love, companionship....!! I think this my mechanism to defeat loneliness or the prospect of loneliness.

All of us have enough of things to do (let it be studies, work whatever it is) but still the fear of loneliness or the fear of being devoid or someone you love makes us do real stupid things, which otherwise we being rational people, wouldn't do. When we are bystanders to such incidents, we often point out at other, we scoff at them for being such emotional fools.... But, when it comes to our own lives we are quite emotional ourselves - the so-called "practical" souls aren't included here!!! :)

I am a total emotional fool and am not ashamed to say this, cos without my emotions, without my actions; I wouldn't be the person I am today!! I don't mind being emotional in my head, it brings a whole new dimension to life; which wouldn't exist had I been otherwise!! Having said this, I would want to strike a balance between the two - keeping both of them strictly apart from each other, and that would make my life a whole lot simpler!!!!! :) Now, whether or not I want a "simple" life is another issue ;)

"Life in the fast lane" is one of the most used phrases in recent times..!! How long is this adage gonna hold good is what is left to be seen. People are now seeing the fallacy behind the statement. Some of them are consciously making an effort to slow down, some are taking classes, practicing techniques like slow email, slow research, slow money etc., to help slow life down..!!! When it actually is pretty simple!

All one needs to do is to stop right there in your tracks and look around - there are so many things happening around us, every single second & if we just stop and let all of this sink in -- our lives would automatically slow down..!!!

Most of the times we don't take time to notice leave alone acknowledge something that someone does for you or if there is a change(for better or for worse) unless it forces us to deviate from our sacrosanct "daily routine", how did we ever get to be so self-involved??? I wouldn't want to be that person - who is too busy to notice something that would otherwise make him/her smile...!! I look for reasons to smile everywhere and in everything & wouldn't want to lose out on these!
