Keep watch on Time

This weekend i went to watch shop to mend my couple of old watches and get them back on track with current time. Watch shops are having poor time these days since mobile phones have come or may be you can say, the new era of digitalization had come, even watches are also now e-watches which can track our sleep, our steps, our blood circulations. Even works as assistant to us reminding all important activities which we need to do for the day.

I was just talking to this horologist, who was saying old watch manufacturers are out of market and whose ever are left are pretty expensive because they are meant for matching the style and fashion of today.

As he repaired my watch and handed over back to me, i told him its showing the date as 9th Jun, whereas it is 8th Jun. The reply which the horologist gave me was awaful - he told me sir, you running out of time, catch it as you had missed a day, Today is 9th Jun'19.

While coming back to home i realized the real meaning of the words said by the horologist. It was a real truth. Time flies and we even don't realize it, it is ticking second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day, week by week, month by month, year by year. Nobody was able to keep hold of it, only best thing what people had done is keep watch on their time to ensure they are not behind and running along with the time.

We are hearing the story about time gone never comes back but we realize it only when we get old and find what have we earned all this life running around the circles. There are few people who loves to be in past remembering the old times and memories are stuck, there are few people who are ahead of time who are always thinking of future, however there are very few who are walking along with the time but whosoever is walking in the present is a successful person as he know whatever had happened in past can't be changed, whatever is going to happen in future can't be controlled. So the best thing is Live in present and enjoy it at most.

Most Important part which i realized that why people use to wear wrist watches that was not to be some fashion trend or some gadgets, It was one of the important tool and discovery of human beings which helps us to track our present and keep reminding us to keep watching and ensuring we are on Track with the Present.

Grow Old with Someone you Love..............

My hair had gone grey, my eyes had gone weak. I am nearing onto my 70's, my old habits of late rising from sleep had changed. Now me and my wife had turned early risers. We are back from our morning walk. With a cup of tea, i am reading the newspaper headlines. Nothing much had changed politically in India all through these years. Priyanka Gandhi's son is on the verge to be the next prime minister of India, Kejriwal's son is still fighting against corruption. Lets put end to these newspaper stories here. Nikki (My Wife) is busy with her early morning Yoga session, she had turned 68 years old but still managed to looks 15 yrs younger than her age. I am gazing her my double lenses, its almost 40years of our togetherness and still it seems that we had just got married yesterday. Nikki raises her eyebrows from the corner and asks me whats in the breakfast honey? I distract myself and pretend that i had not heard her words. She speaks more louder with adding - "You...

Sharpen the Saw...............

 Nobody starts walking with their birth............. There is a minimum period of 10-14 months after the birth human baby starts walking, even that too is not an easy path......But when babies are born one thing is inherent and gift of god which is Learning power. It starts as soon as baby comes to in their senses, they start learning from their surroundings, how to move hands, their speech therapy, their observing power. This shows how their mind is so pure and without any outer impurities so honest so true, which is why it is being said "Babies are Form of God's".  Babies start their journey from Crawling to walking which is big learning process but how quickly they learn is very surprising. Ancient India had proven this fact that whatever is being taught in early age of kids, their mind will grab it quickly. Proven example was Son of famous saint Ved Vyas whose name was 'Shuka' and he learned the entire scriptures and all four Vedas when he was not even born. T...

Too Much Thoughts......

Why do I think so much................. This is the standard question which we all ask ourselves very often, its human tendency to think wherever we get a break to our mind. Even at times without getting a break too, mind keeps on working in the background even if you are working on something, even when we are sleeping. It always ticking and its very difficult to control it. Most of our emotions are driven by the thoughts running in the background of our mind. we feel happy if the thoughts are positive, we feel sad if our thoughts in the background are negative. Mind runs faster than the speed of the light, within a second it can think continuously and simultaneously so many thoughts. Most of the time when i drive the car, in the background my mind will start checking the emails which i read 3-4 days back and for which response is yet to be done, or it will start thinking about my parents well being if they are fine and what they would be doing or about 2-3 months ahead what is ...
