A good article to read. Integrity without knowledge is weak and useless, and knowledge without integrity is dangerous and dreadful. - Samuel Johnson "Integrity without knowledge is weak and useless, and knowledge without integrity is dangerous and dreadful", quoted Samuel Johnson. Integrity in the eyes of a teenager means not cheating in class, obeying and respecting school rules, and finishing and completing anything assigned in school. When in class, teenagers have plenty of opportunities to cheat during tests, quizzes and other assignments. Integrity means not taking advantage of these opportunities and being honest towards yourself and others. Without any integrity, most people would copy other people's work and be dishonest. Since most students show integrity, cheating is not as big of a problem as it could be, but there are some students who thrive on cheating. If all students had integrity, many more would be successful. Samuel Golden once said: "H...

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the deapths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do jot just happen. :)

Its human nature that we had certain pre conceived notions (PCN) about an individual no matter how much time we spend with each other, how much we know about his/her life. These pre conceived notions hinders a free interaction b/w human beings. Either you or me, we all have certain PCN about one or another person. These PCNs about an individual are formed gradually either by listening from other about his/him or by our incomplete observation or interaction about that individual. These PCN are great barrier to make new relationship.  Whenever we start a new relationship (apart from family ties) we categorize that individual as per some criteria in our mind.  Than we judge that individual from that parameters and come out with conclusion that person is bad, proudy, egoistic, drunker, smoker, and bla blaa blaa. As per my life experience, each of person with whom I spend some quality time, shared some experiences or moments is very close to my heart. Though I am bit no...

मैने एक पुस्तक पढ़ी जिसका नाम था- नमो कुरुक्षेत्र जो कि पंतनगर विश्व विद्यालय के एक प्राध्यापक डॉक्टर शिवेंद्र कश्यप जी ने लिखी है। पुस्तक में महाभारत के वृतांतों के माध्यम से युवा पीढ़ी के मन में उठने वाले अनेक द्वंदों के लिए सरल उत्तर दिए गये हैं। कुछ पंक्तियाँ जिन्होंने मुझे प्रभावित किया इस प्रकार है- 1. बड़े त्याग के लिए वही आगे आते हैं जो सबसे प्रतिभावान, चमकते हुए, सर्व श्रेष्ठ होते हैं। जिनके पास कम होता है, वे घबराते है बाँटते हुए। 2. जैसे घी डाल डालकर अग्नि बुझाने की कल्पना करना मुर्खता है, वैसे भी इच्छाओं की पूर्ती कर-कर के खुश और संतुष्ट रहने की कोशिश करना मुर्खता है। 3. ज्यादा अर्जित करने या कुछ बड़ा कर के दिखाने के मुकाबले देश और समाज को ज्यादा लौटा पाने की प्रतिबद्धता और इच्छा मनुष्य को राष्ट्र निर्माता बनाती है। 4. जीवन में प्रतिभा का महत्व कम और उद्देश्य का महत्व ज्यादा है। 5. अच्छाई - सच्चाई के मार्ग पर अनेकों संघर्ष हैं पर सच्चे योद्धा तूफानों से विचलित नही होते। प्रतिरोध उनका सोपान है और पराजय उनकी प्रेरणा, प्रतिकूलता उनकी सहचरी है और स्पर...

Here are some inspiring quotes which motivated me. So I am sharing with you all: 1. Consciously or unconsciously, every one of us does render some service or other. If we cultivate the habit of doing the service deliberately, our desire for service will steadily grow stronger, and will make, not only for our own happiness, but that of the world at large. -Mahatma Gandhi 2. Men often become what they believe themselves to be. If I believe I cannot do something, it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe I can, then I acquire the ability to do it even if I didn't have it in the beginning. -Mahatma Gandhi 3. You should not allow problems to become your captain, you should become the captain of the problems and defeat them and succeed. -Dr. Kalam 4. "All of us do not have equal talent. But , all of us have an equal opportunity to develop our talents.” - Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam 5. “Don’t take rest after your first victory because if you fail in second, mor...

Some of the quotes/lines which I read related to happiness: 1. Happiness is not based on achievement. It is not at the destination, it is on the journey. 2. Happiness is a state of being created while working towards the goal, not a feeling to be experienced after achieving the goal. 3. Obstacles in the journey are obstructions in our achievement, not obstruction in our happiness. 4. I f we believe happiness is at the destination, then we will experience fear and anxiety if there is any obstacle or delay in the journey.

कुछ दिनों पूर्व मैंने कश्मीरी पंडितों के विस्थापन की एक documentry देखी, जिसमें इस दर्दनाक वाकये का जिक्र एक पत्रकार ने कुछ इस प्रकार किया गया था: तुमको सुनायी देती हैं बनावटी चीखे खामोशियों का चीखना तो अभी बाँकी हैं, फर्श पर अगर हक तुम्हारा हैं तो मेरा अर्श अभी बाकी हैं, भले ही लकीरे खीच दो तुम ज़मी पर मगर मेरी ज़न्नत अभी बाक़ी हैं। एक विस्थापित कश्मीरी ने दंगों के समय अपना हाले बया कुछ यूं व्यक्त किया: घर के अन्दर भी खतरा था घर के बाहर भी था जोख़िम उन्होंने खाया तरस हमारी हालत पर और एक एक कर फ़ूक डाले हमारे घर अब ना अन्दर खतरा हैं ना बाहर जोख़िम। कई वर्षों से विस्थापित नोयडा में रह रहे एक सज्जन ने अपने घर वापस जाने की अपनी आशाओं को कुछ इन पक्तियों में पिरोया: जिस सुबह की ख़ातिर जुग जुग से हम सब मरकर जीते हैं, जिस सुबह की अमृत की धुन में हम जहर के प्याले पीते हैं, इन भूखी प्यासी रूहों पर एक दिन तो करम फर्मायेगी, वो सुबह कभी तो आयेगी।
