Oppositeness


Opposite!
I like 'OPPOSITENESS'.
Do you know why?
It's simple; It's everywhere, it's what pushes us forward, it's what we always depend on to keep breathing, it's what we're made of!
This is the fundamental concept of how computers work; zero and one. If we were all good, the first thing that we couldn't really comprehend would be goodness, if  we didn't feel warmth, we couldn't really feel coolness, and if we didn't hate, we couldn't 'love' let alone feeling it.
Yes, it's always the presence of one's opposite that gives life and value to it. That's how the nature works and more importantly that's what it 'is' !
This teaches us to change our perspective about our opposites. This teaches us not to be afraid of them but love them because they help us keep alive, succeed, ................ they complete us.
When we arrive at the above dentition we'll find out that every entity in this world has an opposite corresponding to its own kind. Humans are no exception, men and women, the two kinds that are opposite, depend on each other, one's presence gives warmth to the other,  help the other one grow, succeed, keep alive and ................ complete each other, 'that's the beauty of an opposite'. That's the beauty of a man, that's the beauty of a woman.

I Think we need to thank our opposites, the ones that help us keep going forward, be successful. We should thank them because they complete us. 

Thank you!

Rules!



Rules are important .... & .... following them is equally important !


Most people think that rules stop them from living an easy and comfortable life or progress faster, but quite on the contrary, rules do not!
The problem is that it's the human nature to think subjectively and not objectively. Imagine yourself driving your car and have to commute a 10 km distance to get to your work everyday but there are no traffic lights at the city junctions or no speed limits etc. I can't even imagine when you get to work in the first place let alone arriving safely. Therefore, rules are good for us, although most people don't like them.
This might be quite a social life but the same is true for our individual lives too.

It's extremely important to have rules for ourselves too (or what people usually call 'principles'). We may not like them but we MUST have them. They might stop us from doing things that we like, from thing we're comfortable with but we must have them.

A problem in having rules at individual level is that we can not see the effect of not having them instantly; It's not like crossing the red light and having an accident, rather the effect would appear much later in life or maybe even after one is no more. Absence of them has the potential of influencing generations after us and at times we can not even imagine the depth.

A major part of most of the couples' conflicts and eventually separation is that they don't have principles. If they knew that their partners follow a specific line in their relationship, their trust in each other would never fade.

So.... lets have principles for our lives and respect them no matter what people might think about them and follow them at all times.

Cheers!

GRANDFATHER

My grandfather passed away last night!
... and I came to know about it now.


I don't know why but I did not feel alright yesterday; I didn't answer my calls, didn't reply my texts, didn't go to university and stayed home all day. This happens to me very rarely.
This was a total shock for me and I can't even go to his funeral to see him off.
.
He died the easiest way possible. Some of his sons and daughters and their children were at his home talking with him; he went to take a nap but never came back.
.
He was a true definition of a good man; loved everyone, helped everyone, and never harmed anyone. No one has a bad memory of him and was appreciated for his honesty, perseverance, and warmheartedness.
.
I loved my grandfather and I will miss him always.
.
.
I can't really write more than this but I think I would finish writing by a quote from the movie I watched last night called 'Cast Away - 2000' :


Chuck Noland (Tom Hanks): 
"And I know
what I have to do now.

I gotta keep breathing.

Because tomorrow,
the sun will rise.

Who knows what the tide
could bring?"

Words Have Power

I got into a near-fight-quarrel last night!
It was the first time since I came to India that I had such an uneasy time. I didn't like it though I didn't wanna lose out either, to be honest with you. It made me lose my image in front of my friends and stay up quite long at night.

When quarreling with him and right at the pick of the brabble I remembered something that my brother told me a few months before: "Never argue with the vile. They have been living in that world and know every technique and trick to bring you down to their level and because you're then in their world you'll have no way out and you'll be finally defeated".

Actually that helped and I tried to control myself. If I didn't remember that sentence I probably wouldn't have been writing this post now :) .

Sometimes things that people tell us won't be as simple as they look. They might have a much deeper meaning than they look.

Cheers,

Iman

Different

Hi.
The time is 00:00 and like the day that just started, so did my blogging.
In my future posts I am going to write about my day-to-day life experiences that are 'DIFFERENT'. I like 'DIFFERENT'. Different could be subjective to my life or general.

Life is beautiful, and beautiful is good. So, let's be good because it's good to be good.

Cheers,
Iman Ghavam
