The Fantastive Five people of my life

Warning: This blog contains some intense sentiments and those who have aversion over sentiments and expect some adventures, actions, comedies or any other sort can please skip this blog. :)

Every individual has their own set of people who inspires and motivates to move up in their life both professionally and also as a man with good humanity.Here are the five most inspiring personalities of my life.

Kannan Srinivasan
The first time when i felt lucky to be born as i am in my life was when i realized the character of my father. Not just because he is my father, but for his extra ordinary principles and character. His honesty in everything, sincerity in work (sometimes i feel it extreme where he doesn't even prefers to bring a sheet of paper from office for personal use) even at the age of 57 that too working as a government employee where there is every chance to relax yourself at work, truthful to everyone and above all a person with great patience to handle people and situation, just lifted him up in his life. I have seen many of his friends who didn't consider him just as a friend but a role model. To specifically mention one such person is Mr. Jaganathan. He said me your father is such a great person. To me and for the many in the office he is a role model for his humanity and sincerity. its really rare to see such person and you are very lucky to get him as your father. I felt enraptured to hear that. At times when i see some people who go behind promotion and position to reach as a leader to control their colleagues i always remember my father who is simple yet has followers to follow his way of life. Mr. Kannan , you are simply the best. I hope i have made you proud in the past (not sure at present :)) , but certainly you made me proud and you are my first hero.

Narayani
My grand mother shown me the depth of patience that everyone must have to succeed in life. She falls under the category of people, who came up in life from no where to an inspirational person by their character. She never ever likes to think bad about her enemy even, if at all she had. Whenever i am in anger or get irritated for any reason i remember her and try to calm myself. I know its tough  to be like her but strive to be.

Allah Rakha Rahman
I have already written a blog how ecstatic i feel when i hear his music in this blog.  All i can say is, his music is driving me everyday what ever be my mindset. I cannot imagine a world without his music.

Senthamil Selvan
I felt like  writing a blog about this person long back. But he was my manager and i dont want the true credit about him to go in a way that i blandish him to get hike or what ever. I am least bothered about their useless talks, but the realness about him must not go in vain for this silly thought by some crazy people. He is a manager who is very practical. I have never seen him talking bad about anybody and whatever difficulty he faces (both in professional and personal), he handles it patiently. He is an example of one such person whom Abdul Kalam talks in the below video. Nothing else i have to talk about him. Hats off Senthamil!! You are a true leader. I adore you and i want to be a leader like you in the future if at all i become.

And about the final living being, i have lot to talk, but now its not the situation to express it out in public. There are certain complex things and when the time comes i will surely post exclusively about this creature :)

What they gonna do with those money??

Before i enter into the college days i use to wonder why people say school days and college days are the best to enjoy. I always believed we could continue the same style of life even after completing our graduation. My college days were also same as most of you had. With so much fun and excitement almost everyday, we as a gang roam around the city without bothering about the money, who is spending it and how much each spent on what purpose.
Once we completed the education and started earning, gradually things started changing. Initially, we spent money on dresses, movies and electronic gadgets. Then slowly we started budgetting ourselves on the monthly salary and tried to commit ourselves on various things like buying house, gold, savings for sister marriage, brother's education etc etc which are quite obvious and natural.
But one thing i could not accept is when i see many penny pincher to whom i had to go with for various reasons. These hoarders go to the extend that they are ready to put their hand in the shit to take a paise if its available.
In the recent years, i come across so many misers who are ready to buy dresses in second hand though they earn more than they deserve. The worse thing is these buggers pretend themselves as though they earn for the well being of others. All i demand them is even if you are miser there is nothing wrong, but when you act as though you are a person with generosity is totally unacceptable. Sometimes i feel like asking what you gonna do with these money? Are you going to take this when you die? Do you really think its an achievement to buy more than a house by being a niggard?? But then by asking or advicing them wont do any good except that they either question me as am i perfect or they gonna say its not my business.
Well i can only say i am not a spendthrift and at the same time i am not like these skinflint sacrificing the enjoyment and the life just for money. And yes this is none of my business to ask these guys and thats why i am writing here in my own independent space.

Hope i dont come across any more misers in my close environment of my life...

All is not well

I started on July 23rd to Denver. Unlike last visit this is my long term trip. With just one week before i got to know as long term, i made all arrangements to sell all my things and bought many stuffs for the US visit. As my father's promotional transfer is on the verge, not sure when i come back my parents will be in the same place where they were for the past 35 years.With some very important personal unfilled commitment i left USA with the hope that things will get smooth and in line one day with God's grace.
The problem started from Day 1 when i went to apply for SSN.The Social Security Administration office pointed out an issue that i left the family name blank in the i94 form. I left it blank knowingly as i don't have any family name. Instead it should have been my last name. The work elongated going back to Homeland Security office and back to SSA office.
The very next day i had severe throat pain and fever. I didn't go to office for a day and half. With the pain  excruciating, i went to hospital last night and got to know its some tonsil infection which happens through air or water. I got the medication to be followed for the next ten days and hopefully things will get settled as the days pass on.
With already one week being passed away, i have to start working full fledged to my satisfaction.

Who will win the World Cup 2011?

World Cup 2011 is a vital tournament as for as 50 overs format is concerned. The previous One-day World cup was held in the year 2007. In this span of four years, cricket faced an acute diversion in the interest among the viewers. The Twenty Twenty format is dominating the cricket world. No one can deny that Test cricket has its own dignity and in my opinion it is not in jeopardy.
It is the One-day game which is facing the real test for survival. I hope this World Cup will be a real boost to bring its pride back.
So who will be the Champions?? The answer was so easy when posted prior to last World Cup as Aussies were imperious then. Now its anybody's Cup.
Australia as i said earlier was magisterial and the World Cup Final was never a thriller except the 2007 World Cup where Sangakkara and Jayasuria had put some pressure in the inital stage. But now its totally different. They have a mediocre bowling attack. None of them have a consistent rhythm or length to generate pressure to the opponent. Compared to Test cricket, they have a decent batting line up in the one day format. But its never sufficient to lift the cup. To me Australia will positively make up to the semis, not more than that.
South Africa on the other hand have a lustrous line up of both batting and bowling. Experienced players like Kallis, Smith and Amla topping the order followed by some big hitters in the middle. Their pace bowlers are pretty much promising. But they lack in good threatening spinners which is very much imperative especially in the sub continental pitch. Also they show very poor game play when they are under pressure.But for that, I feel they have a good chance of entering into the finals.
Coming to Sri lanka, if you had noticed they march towards the victory as an extra ordinary team effort when it comes to some champions trophy where all the countries participate. And now its more advantageous for them as they are well versed in sub-continental pitch. They have the upper hand over almost all the other teams in reaching the finals.
To me India is my favorite country to lift the Cup. I wont say they have a strong batting or bowling line up, but its really a promising side. Yuvaraj and Pathan's role are very important and if its India that is going to take the Cup away then these two guys have to be in good form.
Teams like England, West Indies, Bangladesh, Pakistan and New Zealand are very much unpredictable. They may rise up or shatter down.

World Cup 2011 should be for India in my opinion. With fingers crossed, waiting for the event to kick start.

Careless Chennai Corporation

The Pongal festival week is over and people are back to work after a long weekend. But still the chennai corporation or the concerned private body who takes up the action of cleaning the city is still enjoying the Pongal holidays i guess. I see the pongal has aggravated the situation of streets used as garbage dump. The waste materials are littered all along the road sides.
My dinners are usually in some kaiyenthi bavans. Unfortunately, i am not able to have it there as the surroundings are so worst and unpleasant. City is getting more prone to diseases and viral fevers. Almost all the political parties have started their campaigning for the election 2011. But the very basic necessity of city cleanliness is not taken care.
Indians use to say India is moving closer to the status of developed country. I can tell you no way we shall be proud in saying that unless these small small inevitable things are fixed up by the government. Politicians have profound care about their environment with uninterrupted electricity, distill water supply and clear road facility. But they are least bothered about the people, the country and their brotherhood.

India is getting ruined!!!

Happy New Decade

Wish you all a happy and prosperous New Year!!!

As the day has come to Welcome 2011, looking back to what happened personally in the last decade, i wonder whether i am standing in the place where i intended to be. Last decade i accede it was above average, completing my under graduation in a decent college, making a good growth in the job i do and above all i was mostly with friends having great fun.

This decade i perceive myself in a different way. With friends getting settled at various places around the world and some getting married, i look myself more as a responsible individual rather than a callow youth.

Having said that, something in my mind keeps on pestering me that i must do something more... something more to myself... something which makes me satisfied... Should i have to excel more in my job??? or should i get married and lead a normal conventional life?? i don't think those will let me happy or make me complete... i want to learn more... learn more about life.. about what happiness is.. how to be calm and placid... know more about our inner happiness rather than just fun filled external parties and movies..

This solitary period has actuated me to read more books. Increased my reading habit which gives me big pleasure. Books which teaches you what the inner happiness mean and how to sustain it all through your life rather than being happy for some days and dying out few days. Slowly the way i look my life and my world are getting changed... i can foresee my life and my happiness is gonna be much different compared to last decade.

With great positive energy and hope i wish everyone a happy new year and new decade
