'Under me lies a great truth'

A man found on the road a large stone bearing the words, “Under me lies a great truth.” The man strained to turn the stone over and finally succeeded. On the bottom was written, “Why do you want a new truth when you do not practice what you already know?”

What a beauty?: 2 kinds

Remember the days, when I used to have crushes on every beautiful girl , I see.
Beautiful are they, I wonder sometimes still. Beauty of this kind I think makes me feel somewhat crazy, foolish. Hmm, You know what I say. That mild infatuated heart. Haha, How many castles I ve built in my dreams and the same number of them demolished with quick meditations of reality checks. Is this the only side effect of admiration of beauty all about?

No, I dont believe.

But there is a beauty which is very different of its kind.
Let me say about this beauty...

The fragile baby looking & smiling at you.
The old granny wrinkled face smiling and thanking you.
The hugs of your close friends.
The holding of your hands by your loved ones.
etc...

The rainbow in a clear sky
Beautiful dawn & yellowish dusk
Serene Beach waves & coconut trees
Meadow of grasslands, mountains, valleys
etc..

Beauty. Very Sublime.

When I sense this, I feel happy that I m alive.
My Great Lord, Thank You for creating me alive!

One Favorite Tagline

Bond's tagline for Reid & Taylor impressed me much, it is:

You pass this way once
Do it in style
.

Fun in being me.

No two fingerprints are the same.
Each one is unique. Some are happy abt that others are not.

So many friends & people, I admire. I desire to be like them. Yeah, They have what I want and they are how I like myself to be.

Its so good to be them rather than being me. But, If I become them, their imitators, what becomes of me. Who can be me then?

In 'Pontiac Moon', one of my favorite feel good movies, the professor tells his students,' You are already the first prize winners in a running race, You came into this world, after winning that race. You are one in the billions of sperms that fought the race, you won to become you.'
Yeah, Your genes are so genuinely configured so that you can be like you are.
I m unique in someway or other.

I should start accepting me, treating myself with some respect atleast.
I should start having fun in being me.
I should understand myself and my being rather than researching others.
