This can be make or break for India. Only major thing which is stopping India to grow at really good pace is 'Corruption'. Anna Hazare's Lokpal Bill looks like the only way to curb corruption.
If Anna is successful, this would be the largest milestone for India since 1947 Independence. Today Corruption is as big enemy as was British. Do we have another Gandhi in making? God bless him. God bless India.

In life last impression is the lasting impression
One thing I have learnt that first impressions is highly overrated.
No doubt first impression does matter. It matters in an interview. It matters during presentation. It matters during first appointment to clinch your sales deal.
But these are more of logistics of life.
Things which are really important in life, first impressions hardly matters.
What matters is what you are. So be careful if you are making very good first impression you might have difficulty in living upto him. So make right impression and not good impression. Actually why not start with a not so good impression so that you can bring surprises later.
Ofcourse all these matters only when you want to have a lasting relationship with someone.
Personally I have seen it again and again. I never thought I could go so wrong about people. I met some perfect kind of people. and then imperfections came with time. Thing go wrong when it comes in bulk.
So in short, You can not go with first impression at all. Do not try to make good first impression if you are on other side. Finally all you wants is a happy end. So its end which matters.
For people who are important in life, first impressions do not matter as slowly and slowly you will get to know the person. You might not be able to live upto your own first impression. Thats why make right impression and not good impression.

Being Eunuch!!
Today, while coming from swimming I stopped at a traffic signal and saw few eunuchs begging. Suddenly this made me think what fault of theirs brought them such life.
Eunuchs are not respected. Society does not accept them. I never accepted them. I don't know where they live. I don't know what they do beside begging. Did they attend any school? Does any education institute accept them? These are the questions I always wondered about.
I remember so many times I did not like them troubling us while traveling on Indian railways. I know they are abusive. Actually so many times I felt proud of not surrendering to their bad behavior and whisking them away. Now I am wondering whose behavior was not right. Mine or them. Actually now I am feeling ashamed.
If you are physically handicap, govt supports you, family supports you. Everybody looks at you sympathetically. I wonder how Eunuchs are different. Shouldn't they get same support if not more? God was unfair to them, we can be kind at least. Why can't we accept them? We accept criminals in our society to some extent. We forgive people. We forgive kids of their mistakes. What mistake a eunuch kid made? Is it unforgivable?
Who is responsible for abusive behavior of a Eunuch? Who is responsible for the profession of begging they are into? Who is responsible for their sorry state? Its me. Its us.
With these feelings I put hand in my pocket and took out Rs 5 coin. I saw that eunuch being whisked away by a couple in an auto just in front of me. She started moving away from me probably to avoid any futile attempt before I signaled her and gave him the coin. She put her hand on my helmet and left. I was overwhelmed.

Timepass
Recently for a change I saw lot of hollywood movies.
It started with Terminator Salvation ( very bad), Ice Age 3 ( my first 3-d movie so liked it ), Harry Potter ( my first harry potter movie in theatre ) and pulp fiction ( on laptop) and Atonement (skimmed through).
Frankly speaking none of them really impressed me a lot. I definitely liked pulp fiction especially samuel jackson and Bruce Willis acting.
Though I appreciate Pulp Fiction, I do not understand how people like Terminator Salvation kind of movie. To me it was another sci fi movie where somebody is trying to save the world alone or with little help. There have been 100 Hollywood movies like this since Independence Day, the first movie of this type ( atleast the one I saw).
Coming to my next interest Cricket, this Ashes series 2009 has been very exciting so far. Its difficult to pick any team. Its neck to neck battle. Australia has done really well inspite being laden with inexperienced players. I feel England is definitely lucky to be leading 1-0 in the series. It will be interesting to see how England performs without their top player Pietersen. Its sad to see Flintoff retiring from Test Cricket. I hope people appreciate Test cricket so that we can enjoy artist like Sachin, Lara, Ponting rather than musclemen like Yusuf, Watson, Gayle, Hayden.

I went along with five of my office colleagues/ex-colleagues.
We visited three beaches- 1. Kihim 2. Navgaon 3. Kashid.

We played lot of cricket and volleyball on the beaches.
Rest of the time we played cards.
