Bela Gupta, Tehmasp Printer & B.P. Singh waxed nostalgic just before the new year!

I want to go back to the time

When “getting high” meant “on a swing”

When “drinking” meant “cider”,

When “dad” was the only “hero”

When “love” was “mom’s hug”,

When “dad’s shoulder” was the “the highest place on earth”

When your “worst enemies” were “your siblings”

When the only thing that could “hurt” were “skinned knees”

When the only things “broken” were your “toys”

and

When “goodbyes” only meant “till tomorrow.

And Yes I agree with them…

It’s so hard when I have to, and so easy when I want to…

A Saturday afternoon stretching into evening - alone at home, tired of watching/reading repeats on Terrorism, Economy, Politics; melancholy taking over and asked myself the meaning of Life today. A long read expression maybe incomplete but…..still significant.

Once Life meant:
A winter evening, Four friends, Mild Rain, Four pegs of Rum…

Once Life meant:
100 bucks for petrol, Two rusty old bikes, An open road..

Once Life meant:
Maggi noodles, A hostel room, 3.25 a.m..

Once Life meant:
1 Prep leave, 1 night, 1 book, 8 duffers..

Once Life meant:
1 girl, 1 number, 4 friends, and a fight..

Now Life means:
old friends, separate cities, separate lives and endless efforts to earn..

Expect more from yourself than from others because expectation from others hurts a lot while expectation from yourself inspires a lot.

An extremely pertinent fact that we always seem to forget:)

Success today does not give you free lunch everyday thereafter!

How very true & apt….

“Keeping liquidity and not investing in such a low market is like saving up for sex in your old age.”
Warren Buffet

Absolutely Mr. Buffet, but just like sex requires two partners, investing needs money & knowledge……

In these times of credit & cash crunch one that remains forever -

Money will come anδ go, that’s why they call it Cash flow!

In order to keep a true perspective of one’s importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him, and a cat that will ignore him.

Never say you are FINE because it means Freaked Out, Insecure, Nureutic, Emotional….

A pre season thought…..quite relevant…..but difficult to practice…

Nobody really cares if you’re miserable; So you might as well be happy….
