Truth

Most often, when we do some mistake, or when we don't fulfill our duties (even though we would have done right on all other days), that day itself we are caught (though many other people might have done many mistakes many a times and are not caught). Similar situation occurred to Ms. S.

That day, Ms. S was supposed to be in that meeting hall by 10 am. Different than usual, somehow she was late that day....and reached meeting hall 10 minutes late. All others who are supposed to be present were already there...with everyone's eyes on Ms. S, for that she was late. Even Ms. U who used to come late most often, was on time that day. 

As expected, manager wasn't happy with Ms. S being late. Manager asked her the reason for being late by 20 minutes. Ms.S had no particular answer to tell..she was just late. Even in Ms. S's watch it was 10.20. But, you see there is a difference between the actual time and the time shown in the watch. Most of us are having the habit of setting the time faster that it is, so that we think we’ll be on time. Same was the case with the manager and Ms. S. Hence only she thought, its only 10.10 in the real time, so i'm late only by ten minutes and not by 20 minutes, still why manager is shouting like this. That meeting was over. But the words of manager was in the mind of Ms. S. She wanted to share what happened to her with others. She wanted to prove she did no mistake.

It was lunch time when she would met most of her friends. It was a place where she has an opportunity to share her feelings. So she came up with the happenings of the morning........saying..."you know what happened today morning..for the 10am meeting, i was there in the meeting hall by 9.55. Today the manager had come little early and thats why he scolded me saying that i came late. But it was only 9.55 you know....." and her story continued.

I have wondered how we word the happenings in our favor. How we try to hide the mistakes that we do.

When tomorrow is the last day

When people are wasting time, or spending time in less useful work, or when people act as if they re carrying all the worries of the world....they are asked to live life as if tomorrow is the last day of their life.

What are they expecting of us when they say so?
Can we live happily and peaceflly when we know that tomorrow is the last day of our life?
Will we not be filled with the grief of leaving this world, with so many dreams yet to come true?
I cannot imagine living happily when its known for sure that tomorrow is the LAST DAY.
But,
we can try to make the best out of each of  our day, male it more useful, live it more happily.....so that if tomorrow is the last day...we have the satisfaction of living a wonderful TODAY. That last day should come unexpectedly, without giving a hint.
