Benefit of doubt
Giving benefit of doubt is the
cleverest self preservation policy. You want peace? Just give benefit of doubt.
Something important gets left
out because of someone else? Just give benefit of doubt.
If your work doesn’t get done
because the staff member was on the phone, please give benefit of doubt.
Do we see what’s going on? Anyone
who is in demand can afford to shirk responsibility and because of our need of
them, we compromise and keep compromising through ... yes... benefit of doubt.

Philosophy of life
We say we have choices. At
least, all humans are supposed to have free will and choices. Yet, we have so
many issues! Why, when we have can make our decisions?
The whole thing is, the choices
we make don’t guarantee the results we want. So, we are constantly in a state
of turmoil.
If only the consequences were
in our hands!!! Life is never a straight, predictable line. There is a super
saying in Marathi symbolizing life: वाकड़ी
तिकड़ी वलणे; Full of twists and turns.
I know one or two people who
enjoy the ride. They take things in their stride. And they know how to balance
when the twists and turns come. What crucial knowledge, sir jee! Makes life
really into a joy ride!
I really admire them because
you have to be spiritual in your philosophy of life, or, it might make for a
huge struggle. Strength and spirituality is a deadly combination.
