The Life of Emptiness

Do you know atoms? The smallest particles that constitute an object? Technically, about 99.99% of a helium atom is empty. This means it has that much-unoccupied space within them, well waste space. It's almost similar to all atoms. So, what if there is no waste space? simply saying, you are planning to hang a decor at home roof. you just need a meter of rope. But if you have a very long one what you do? You will just cut the required length. right? So what if we can do the same to our atoms, the basic building matter? what if we removed the unwanted space? Do we shrink? I don't know science. But with common sense, once space is removed, it becomes small and so we may shrink. If that happened then we all humans can live in 1/100th of place, we live right now. (Just an imagination)

Scribble - Life of emptiness


Well, Is it possible now? No, I believe it's never. As same like that our life is made up of emptiness. You cannot live a life without complaining about even a small thing. Definitely once or many you end up living the worst moment at least once. But you want to worry about that? No. Never worry about the worst moments in life. They seem to cause emptiness in your life. The thought of what to do next, thoughts of self complaining, bad habits, depression, and self-destructive thoughts are like voids which come in everyone's life as like the empty space. But remember there are still protons, neutrons, and electrons inside the atom. This constitutes our life. You just need to learn to balance the life equations.

I won't say life is not of emptiness. But I say it must be with emptiness. If not so, then how will you learn to react, respond and live? So welcome the emptiness wholeheartedly and balance your life with happiness.


Have a good day!

On Search of Happiness

Almost every one of us are idiots, who search for happiness (sorry, but its true). You see, on our entire life, the only goal everyone wants is "To be Happy". But everyone fails to be happy in many situations or maybe even at their whole life. Have you ever thought and analyzed this happiness and depression pattern?



Happiness is completely based on your Thoughts. The first enemy to destroy your happiness is your "Thoughts on requirements".Yes! There is a difference between need and requirement. Many people around the world still strive to fulfill their needs while many long to fulfill their requirements. Deep down you just need to realize and understand that your requirements are not needs which have to be fulfilled. It's just a thing which may elevate you up for extra comfort.

Very few of us understand those things. There are various things contribute to your sadness even though when you are happy. Best one of them is Social media's. Do you know for what it is been created? Just to be in touch with people, to make new friends & to share information, career interests, ideas, and other forms of expression on virtual communities. But now this has become the place for obsession and addiction. Being truthful, you are very happy and you live a happy life. But longing for things and your greed intrude you easily and make you think that you don't have anything to be happy. And these thoughts not only make you sad but question your existence.

Always remember and say it to yourself - "I am happy". You are blessed with food and shelter. You have beautiful friends to surround you and take care for you. You being a blessed person, you are very happy and you can bring down the happiness to others. Let's cherish Happiness around you by carrying a smile!!

Cheers!!

P.S: You can also bring smiles to many children by helping them to learn by joining an NGO and volunteer for teaching the underprivileged kids. You can also help out the needed kids by becoming their scribes. (Mail me for more info & contact)

The Year of Reading

I believe this year is going to be very rememberful. Yes, I think some miracles are going to happen this year. Many things are awaiting! With all my passages for higher education has been closed indefinitely, but I think this year is gonna be the best reading year. Never felt like this before..

Whatever you read, it doesn't matter anyway. Ultimately what you get from it, what is your resultant thoughts from your reading are going to make the change in you. Yes, the change! In you means in you and around you.. This change makes you learn, grow, and subtly make you great. Yes, I feel it and it's just not words from me. After 4 years of observation over various classes of people, I came to a conclusion of this. Just look back. At present, you can't find a change in you. But when you look back you can learn the values you gathered in your life. The life values!! So what matters to you most? To me, my ambition, helping others and Humanity.  Ask this question to yourself. These kinds of questions will help you acknowledge your needs to yourself. And finally, believe in you!

With all those questions and beliefs I am on my way. Started January with Wise and otherwise, February with Lovely Bones, and March to be with Testimony!! But before all this, I think I must thank a special soul in my life. She involuntarily, unknowingly dragged me into the world of books. Yeah, she doesn't know this till now. She ignited the lying love of books in me. With a small spark, now its flamming over!! Thank you Arunalakshmi Ramu, a cousin different from the whole family which is the best attraction towards her.

So if you have any recommendations for reading, just hit it below on comments and I will sure try to read it.. Happy reading!

Way you are bound to drown

There is a common myth among students. I thought it's just familiar to students. But this is a myth which has wide spread among many people of different categories. Even educated also have been a prey to this. Yes! This is almost familiar with everyone!!

"ENGINEERING"

This is not the thing which everyone falls for but for the lie that after completing engineering, students are almost going to be unemployed or they are going to work on non-core. Do you believe this? As an engineer, I thought it's time to break this myth with those unspoken truths. 

Being graduated as a mechanical engineer, I was found lucky to have the dream job of me - Design Engineer at a reputable organization. But the real truth is I am also the one who certainly fell to those myths in my final year of college. The self-belief and motivation I had at my initial days have been ruled out and destroyed by the energies of people around me. I started believing it's hard to find the right job. But that's not true. As soon as I came out of that cat race among those, I started analyzing what destroyed my belief, what made me get my dream job and what hinders others from that.

Still, I can see many of my friends, close friends searching for a job everywhere, site to site, person to person, whatever and wherever they see. Even though they attend interviews they are casually rejected. Why this is so?

Do engineering lost its scope? Whether the world needs no more engineers? Is engineering a piece of shit? Err., No!.

To be true, Engineers are not those people, who join engineering and get that degree after 4 years. Engineers are those who with passion and love for knowledge to create, invent and modify things for the betterment of others. Yes, the interest and knowledge they possess make them the good engineers.

In the current scenario, the number of colleges and the students at engineering has raised, but the quality has not. We are moving towards marks instead of knowledge. Most of the colleges are preferably concentrating students to get high marks and pass percentages instead of measuring what knowledge they acquired. In many institutes, the quality of teaching is also very poor.

So, this engineering is currently a place of garbages, a stinky one. But there are also mines in those garbages. They have laid a way to follow. But it's not mandatory that you should approach the education in the same way they approach. 

 It depends on you, whether you move out with mines from those garbages or just get off from those stinky ones or fall permanently in those garbages. Every year there is a minimum of 70% placements at IIT's and the students placed has a minimum salary package of 6 L.P.A.  If they can, why not we? We are blessed with the same commonly. It only depends on your hard work. 

So wake up. Don't blame engineering. Don't drown by the way they bound. Be passionate to learn, explore and innovate. Get up, ask, read and understand. Your mines are in your hands. All the best.
