  • Marriage – the living of it

    Marriage – the living of it

    Marry someone you believe is worthy of emulation; someone you can look up to and learn to forgive them. The formula of an unhappy marriage is to marry someone who you believe you can change. That is a sure recipe for disaster. When you marry someone who you think needs to be changed you are…

  • Give me a hug!!

    Give me a hug!!

    We are touchy, feely creatures. Our most powerful ways to communicate have always been wordless. When our emotions peak, we are struck speechless. Our gestures, hugs, and tears tell the tale far more powerfully than anything we could have said. Words uttered at such times appear contrived and artificial, devoid of sincerity. We didn’t speak.…

  • Wildlife Conservation in India

    Wildlife Conservation in India

    I firmly believe that the key to wildlife and forest conservation is the wholehearted support of local people. That can’t happen when they don’t know the forest, don’t know how to conduct themselves respectfully and safely in it and so live in fear of forests and wildlife instead of loving and enjoying them.

  • Never try to change your spouse

    Never try to change your spouse

    Go look in the mirror and tell yourself that the only one in the world who thinks that you are an unqualified blessing is perhaps your mother and that too, perhaps. Tell yourself that you married your spouse because you liked them, not because you found them when they lost their way to their shrink.…

  • DIFFERENTIATE!!

    DIFFERENTIATE!!

    There’s no such thing as too much when it comes to setting life goals.  Nobody knows the best that he can do. Limits are only in the mind. Differentiate on the basis of the only thing which counts – Quality. Be the best in the world at what you do. Forget everything else – just…

  • Focus on Giving

    The world loves ‘givers’ and hates ‘takers’. Now this is not just some ‘nice to do’ thing. Think farming. What do you do if you want a great harvest? Plant lots of good seed. What happens if you eat up the seed? No harvest. Life is farming. Imagine that you walked into the hut of…
