Numbed Heart

Sophia ‘how could he never pay attention to my feelings?’

Marie ‘Sophia… you are over thinking… he is always there for you’

Sophia ‘what about his affair with…’

Marie ‘stop retrospection on where things go wrong, rather look at what can go right hence forth’

Sophia ‘my heart is numbed… I just cannot feel emotions’

Marie ‘do realize that after every operation where a part of body is numbed, it recovers… body heals by self with little bit of support’

Sophia ‘thanks for being for me’

Marie ‘we may have billions with us… or nothing.. but all we need is that unconditional love and support when vulnerable’

Sophia hugs Marie and bursts into tears

Sophia ‘Let me attempt to either recover and be with him or just start afresh’

Marie ‘that is the spirit… don’t get defeated’

Peace Lover

Bob had a unique approach to solve a problem. He would understand two conflicting parties view point and ….

Bob ‘I do believe you have different customs, traditions and even views so can I suggest something’

Jay ‘what you wish to suggest?’

Iqbal ‘yes what is it’

Sukhvinder ‘ok… let us understand’

Bob ‘Prepare list of all differences and commonality which you feel can divide you’

All of them begin noting it down, including Bob…

After few hours

Bob ‘Let us now put all of this in white board and circle the common views’

Iqbal ‘what about difference?’

Bob ‘can we add a checklist of tolerance to it’

Sukhvinder ‘you could have told it earlier’

Again all get back to tickmark on what all differences can be tolerated and what cannot’

All look at the whiteboards of each other and begin smiling at each other

Iqbal ‘am failing to understand if I can tolerate you, Sukhvinder and Jay… so am sure others too will’

Jay ‘yes … it is interesting’

Bob ‘if we observe the world… most of population have capacity to tolerate each other

Sukhvinder ‘then why so much hate ‘

Bob ‘the geography territory greed, the greed of upmanship and dominance, inequality of wages or funds for development… that creates unrest. Then we have leads who use that to influence common man and we get into conflicts’

Iqbal ‘what will be the solution’

Bob ‘keep serving others from what we have… and stop worrying of who has how much… do our serving with full compassion ‘

All hug each other and echo ‘We will always be united’

You can feel me

You can feel me if you wish

if you choose to feel me for what I am,

You can feel me within you

if you choose to understand I am your friend

Feelings are abstract and cannot be quantified,

the magnitude can be ranked, but what about the heart which gets fully engulfed by those feelings.

Most our love for our beloved ones, are due to that feeling for them…

We may spend a restless night wondering why these feelings?

We fall in peace with self when we realize we just cannot ignore those feelings

Just a step away from pen… Just a step away from mirror

Look at self and your eyes and you will see only love and compassion for all..

Being tender and soft is always a strength… The mighty may appear heaven

but the heaven exists in our soul… our beloved ones whom we remember every moment

and then few mortals like us… always hope we too will be in your heart forever

if we pen well, we think well, we feel well for you..

Back to work…

After quite a gap… Misha decides to get back to work… She has been on a maternity break and also suffers from a divorce…

She has all along been good in recruitments and feels this is the right job for her….

An email pops up in her mail id ‘We are seeking individuals who can be part of journey to spread peace’

Misha is a peace lover and surprised with this message… curiously responds

‘How will I get compensated?’

A response comes ‘US$10 to resolve a human conflict’

Misha smiles at self remembering her various episodes of brawls with her husband… A compulsive drunkard who can hit Misha any time… or even force on her any time…’

She responds ‘only 10$ worth is cost of human conflict’

Response comes ‘This is a social initiative and we get 15… and we give you 10… so it is fair deal’

She responds ‘why will you not do it self?’

Response ‘Do you know every tweet trend has potential conflicts… easily in 60 minutes there is a potential for 6 million conflicts globally’

She responds ‘wow… interesting… who are you?’

Response ‘my email id explains who I am… but for you to know me better, can you accept 1 assignment’

She says ‘what is it?’

Response ‘your mom sent us 15 to solve your conflict with your father.. as it seems you hate him as he never encouraged you to work’

She responds ‘amazing.. means I get paid for my own problem with my dad’

Response ‘Solve the problem’

She responds ‘how?’

Response ‘communicate and probe the issue better’

She calls her mother ‘I am irritated with you.. Why will you hire 3rd party individuals and explain ridiculous problems of our lives’

Mother ‘They seem to have excellent potential.. wanted to encourage them… Am exploring investments in them… so ‘

She ‘so… you feel your husband… my father was right when he curbed me from working and wished me to marry and settle soon in life’

Mother ‘Misha… do you know.. one problem with you..’

She ‘what is it… my life is screwed up… nothing much… am trying for job.. to sustain the kid’

Mother ‘discuss with your father… it is an assignment’

Misha moves to her father’s room

Father ‘Misha…sad to see you divorced too soon… I feel I made a mistake.. but do you know the reasons for me to get you married too soon?’

Misha ‘what?’

Father ‘Misha… you always would give up things in between and though a curious kid… but somehow focus missing. I wished to give you a purpose of life and make you take responsibilities and hence marriage’

Misha ‘amazing… so you wished to me to get screwed up’

Father ‘no… I felt you would get focused and then if god wills will prosper too in career’

Misha ‘a regressive thinking from an educated father… look what you did of me’

Father ‘we do not have control over destiny… had you been single too… some mess would have happened… so it is a learning curve for you’

Misha ‘now you blame on destiny… ‘

Father ‘do you recollect some moments of our lives when you would come to me for each problems of yours’

Misha remembers as a child she doted her father and always spent time with him… she recollects when she failed in her maths exam and sheepishly informed her father and the only response she got was ‘be focused’

Misha ‘why you feel am not focused’

Father ‘reasons… instead of agreeing for marriage… why would you not take up a job then’

Misha ‘I did to see you all happy’

Father ‘Misha… from now onwards try to be happy for your own self… you need to be the most important person for your own self… and with you,… you kid’

Misha ‘my husband would hit me for no reasons’

Father ‘drinks can damage mind… it can damage families… it is unfortunate… we never realize this… ‘

Misha ‘I ignored earlier… but then it kept increasing’

Father ‘are you still angry with me?

Misha ‘no… I love you a lot’

Misha hugs her father

Misha sends a message ‘conflict resolved.. remit 10’

10 credited to her account

Misha ‘why this complex way of handling simple problems… I could have solved it myself’

Response ‘as service provider our job is to touch pain points which someone cannot solve self… so thanks for your time.. will you take up next assignment’

Misha responds ‘yes’

Response ‘your ex husband is having a hard time in his company… he may be thrown out any time’

Misha ‘why personal issues coming to me.. this way am not also going to solve problems of others’

Response ‘will you take up this assignment’

Misha ‘yes’

Misha smiles at herself and mumbles ‘solving our own problems and getting paid too… interesting’

Misha responds ‘next what after this’

Response ‘our criteria of selection process is solve 3 problems of self and then you can solve other’s problems’

Misha responds ‘who are you?’

Response ‘have returned back again… to ‘

Misha ‘for what?’

Response ‘solving problems in entertaining way’

Love at first sight?

Love at First Sight

Is it applicable to the startup ecosystem? or any business deal?

The answer is probable Yes

Why does an investor invests in a venture?

The deal is great…and it will have definite returns.. but maybe the investment banker, the deal maker has fallen in love with the venture for whatsoever reasons.

Is it applicable in employment?

Many a time we get very impressed by a prospective employee because of good answers, excellent back experiences or whatsoever and decide to hire an individual in max 1 hour to 3 hours of maybe couple of round of interviews.

Each employment engagement or venture deal is a relation which begins with a love and eventually it needs understanding for maintaining it long term

Many misuse the love for maybe own gains and it could be pure one sided devotion or attraction. Loyalty comes in form of various MOUs, Agreements and suspicion comes on slightest doubt of betrayal.

Is it applicable in politics? Again the same story… Add betrayal to it… where someone decides to let go an employee or an employee decides to let go an organization or an investor decides to skip a venture only because the love came with a mind to choose a better partner. Finally it is the love or hate which compels many to make decisions in life to invest or de-invest from a venture or group or people.

Moral of the story : As long as heart exists, multiple ventures, individuals will come in life… But if we use our mind, we may just do what keeps us happy… If the mind gets too cluttered with confusions or confusing take from many individuals… it only indicates there is quite possibility that in personal life too that trait may damage self… Let us not get confused with why a group of investors remain followers and only few become lead investors… Somewhere there is love and assurance that things will not go wrong.

What should an employee do?

Fall in love with the venture and ensure the venture never fails…

What if there is a potential exit?

You are a great lover and there is huge dearth of such passionate lovers in world… you will get a better partner soon.

Stay positive.

Lord Ganesha 2022

Lord arrived and got amused with social media bursting with multiple images of Lord in various popular movie get up. It is right from KGF to Pushpa to even having Lord as a political party worker in half pants.

The sense of respect to Lord comes from the discipline and willingness to abide by the same.

Secularism is all about giving respect and accepting all religion, caste, color and creed..

Hinduism is not Hindutva… The religion originates 10000s of years before BC (Birth of Christ)… It originates from myth… that some God (unknown) made this universe. However it got into recognition maybe 1000 of years before BC. The religion can be tailored and tolerance by default is imbibed in it.

Lord Ganesha is surprised that why so many boycotts happening… and will it not impact the employment opportunities for many…

The universe has got engulfed in hate wave apart from heat wave or flood wave… The unknown wishes to convey… that be united… else we break all and again re-create the universe..

Each century… there have been many great leads whom we believe impacted the world… Many began following the leads with that belief in full sincerity and respect.

Lord Ganesha accepts all imperfection if the zeal of human lies in helping mankind… Around 950 BC as documented… we had Sage Vyasa narrate Mahabharat to Lord Ganesha.

Lord Krishna (5000 BC), Lord Ram (10000 BC)… it is all existing in various vedic books… but what exactly happened was tailoring of those beliefs and principles to such an extent… that the belief plus cultural / traditional approach of various regions.

The Greek Mythology with Janus as Lord who is protector equivalents Lord Ganesha. It is all documented and a good research read.

What does Lord Ganesha wish to convey in 2022

a) Be united…

b) Embrace new technologies but derive lessons from them..

c) Understand God can be in any form… or even formless. But if we believe in self and help all… God could be right within us… guiding us daily..

d) The discipline to take fast or even not take fast exists because it is sort of cleansing self and help us control our senses..

e) Enjoy the festivals and occassions

Hindutva is an ideology by a political lead.. to believe Hinduism is powerful.. however power of any belief comes from people itself… it has to have no hate element in it… as God doesn’t want negative energies all around… God wishes to thrive in positive vibes and energies. The essence of worship begins from seeking a peaceful place to meditate and retrospect. It cannot get confused with hateful approach towards fellow men..

Lord Ganesha just wishes peace and wishes globe to come out of all sort of virus attacks (man made, natural whatsoever)

Spiritual entrepreneurship also has a business model… however we need spiritual awakening all over.. to self realize where we are heading.

Sum it

Relation is defined as =, <, <=, >,>=. !-=

Where are we?

Husband ‘we are not equals’

Wife ‘we are equals’

a != b

a = b

Kid ‘what is the outcome?’

Husband ‘you are that constant value’ which balances our equation.

Kid ‘what if there is no kid?’

Wife ‘then we need some balancers, the m value in equation’

Kid ‘M?’

Wife ‘M = Slope or the Magical quotient which can bring multiplier effect to relation’

Husband ‘relationships are cryptic… we always need balancing factors to balance the equation of relation.. else everything will appear disjointed’

Science of Human Relation – 2

Mary ‘So what is up today’

Henry ‘Dear do you know… I experimented Einstein’s theory of relativity’ over our relation..’

Mary ‘How?’

Henry ‘that day onwards… stopped remembering you… a new girl came in life Alice… a new fresh whiff of air… the speed with which she arrived, the continuous blabber… slowly slowly… her speed of pushing self in my heart… and then… for quite some time I forgot you?’

Mary ‘really… then how come you are here’

Henry ”do you know all can forget anything in earth… time is the solution… if we have Energy coming from food. same way energy needs light too.. that light of love, hope, courage to withstand all pressures… and that can come from any person… or even animal or plant… Alice felt very nice with me.. so kept wanting to be with me all the more… and ensured… I stopped thinking too much.’

Mary ‘hello you seem lost today’

Henry ‘imagine you spend 8 hours with someone every day… so by 5th day… you have 40 hours credited to your account of memory… now imagine parents or even your partner… the duration of years x duration of hours spent every year with them…. that is the span of moments spent by you with that person… The day you get someone with whom you spent more hours… assume 24….. there are chances you will forget the first person in 2 days… moral of story…. do keep your loved one’s in your heart forever’

Mary ‘so did you keep me?’

Henry ‘love feels so much for one’s whom we love.. but when they disappear… we are not the same again’

Henry holds Mary’s hand…

Henry ‘Alice one day just moved away from my life…as she felt… somewhere I always kept you in my memory’

Mary bursts laughing

Mary ‘so theory of Einstein failed?’

Henry ‘Energy = mass x (speed of light) x (speed of light). I never let the light of love diminish even 1 bit for you may be…

Henry ‘if you love someone, ensure you keep them in your memories forever… else you may just stop thinking or even forget that beloved over period of time… I failed.. but someone else can break from a bitter relation with this experiment…’

Mary ‘What happened to Alice?’

Henry ‘she eloped with Dude…’

Mary ‘funny name’

Henry ‘Alice and Dude both belonged to Dog family… she was my pet animal’

Mary ‘are you kidding?’

Henry shows Mary their photographs..

Henry ‘animals can also be our companion… The act of petting a dog actually releases serotonin and dopamine, the most recognizable “feel good” hormones or chemicals we can create naturally’

Love me

Susan ‘Love me if you feel am real’

Raj ‘Love me if you feel am absolutely real’

Susan ‘I always find you with fake emotions, fake smile and everything about is fake. I suspect you have an affair with someone else’

Raj ‘the absolute reality of life is that no one is perfect. I interact with so many… and if you doubt, I respect that you are indeed real’

Susan ‘anyways bye’

After 2 days Susan receives an email

‘Dear Susan.. thanks for time spent with me, have paid your admission fees as you intended to pursue a diploma in film making. I will be busy for few months. I believe you need a break in our relationship. Let’s see what will be the outcome. My emotions seem fake and may be am expression less.. but that is how I am and finally Love me for what I am’
