LIFE

Read Somewhere...
To make money we lose our health,
and then to restore our health we lose our money..
We live as if we are never going to die,
and we die as if we never lived...

And to add.. a line from Orkut.
" Study as if you were to live forever.
Live as if you were to die tomorrow"

W.I.S.D.O.M.

W.I.S.D.O.M.
Don't look for the flaws as you go through life;
And even when you find them,
It is wise and kind to be somewhat blind.
Just look for the virtue behind them;
For the cloudiest night has a tint of light
Somewhere in its shadows hiding.
It is by far to look for a star;
Then the spots on the sun abiding.
The world will never adjust itself
To suit your whims to the letter
Something goes wrong your whole life long
And the sooner you know it the better.
It is folly to fight with the infinite.
And go under at last in the wrestle.
The wiser man shapes into God’s plan,
As water shapes into a vessel…..

BEUTY OF MATHEMATICS

The following is a collection from the mails i received. i was amazed to see the beuty and symmetry involved in these numbers.
One example :
1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321

Others are here : (click on read more)

1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111


9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888


Brilliant, isn't it?

And look at this symmetry:

1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321

WHAT IS SUCCESS

WHAT IS SUCCESS
What is Success ?
To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people
And the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics
And endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beuty;
To find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by
A healthy child, a garden patch
Or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed
Easier because you have lived;
This is to have succeed.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

The lines look simple .. but to achieve such success, we have to have enormous conviction, tremendous insight and courage to change the distorted views of success which are harbouring in our minds so far...
I would like to share few words from my story, "గెలుపు"
(ఈనాడు 04-11-1999 ఆదివారం సంచికలో ప్రచురితమయింది- ఆర్థర్ గోర్డాన్ ప్రేరణతో వ్రాసిన కథ అది)
" ఓ ప్రభూ
ఇంతకాలం ప్రపంచాన్ని గెలవాలనుకొన్నాను
కాని ఇపుడు
అంతకంటే ఆనందం కలిగించే పని చేశాను.
అది..
నన్ను నేను గెలవడం "
