I luckily happen to know a 'package' called Dr.Ashwini Shenoy . She was my senior at our hospital. Now that her exams are just around the corner, madam seems to be on a forward-sms-sending-spree. This one here was a conversation sms-sms again.
On 24/04/10, @ 1:30am,
She: "Sometimes, we struggle through the bitter coffee till the last sip, only to discover sugar crystals lying at the bottom. That's life - sweetened but not stirred."
Me: "I have a doubt. How can you stir life?"
She: "U can... stir up something which is obviously there, but not surfacing. It just requires a push sometimes. Try it. It may involve letting go of ego though."
Me: "Sometimes even if you let go of your self-esteem and try as hard as you can, you never get the things you want in life."
She: "See if you can't get something and you think you should have it, then give it your all. Even then if it's elusive, then maybe you deserve better."
Me: "One more doubt. When somebody is happy with what they have, why is it a compulsion to have something 'better'?"
She: "Valid point. Maybe you deserve better is a cliche. Maybe it's best for you to judge what's good for you. And it's frankly irritating when another thinks otherwise.
In that case, a little pessimism helps. After all, man thrives in tragedy and reaches the next level when he didn't know he is capable of it. Diversion from a hurt so strong can only make an achievement so great. Maybe unconnected but yet it'll be the reason still."
Me: " Sounds better :). That's going on my blog now! :)".
Nice gyaan coming out of the laughter-box prankster that she otherwise is!
Here's one more forward I got from her. I thoroughly loved it....
"Thought for the day: Always smile in the morning...... It makes people wonder what you did last night ;-)"
p.s Ash- Thanks for being the courtesy for a post here ;-). Don't ask for royalties now!!
Off to being jobless again,
