Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth

I see ppl thanking the Lord for their I-Phones, Mac Books, DSLR etc..Isnt the Lord supposed to have taught them to un-love materialistic stuff?

god never ask us to love materials or things.He just show us the way to live life. good or bad. I think he never always expects good thing from us as we are living for one or the other purpose. - Sujay

God doesnt expect things from us, fair enough. Then pray why do people indulge in all sorts of rituals and donations in the name of God. If he did show us the right way to live, then why is the donation box at Tirupathi overflowing while there are kids dying on starvation in the country?

thanks for dropping in btw :)

@A: Well, each one has his/her own idea/definition/* of 'God'. IMHO, its better that they throw their money into donation boxes than to go around killing each other.

@da rodent: ya i agree that it is better than to go around killing each other. But I still feel, if only people understood the genuine teachings behind their own religions, the world would not be such an evil place.

Dear Dow Chemicals, You have yet to compensate the victims of the Bhopal Gas Tragedy. You have a moral and financial obligation towards the victims and their descendants. How the hell are you are sponsoring the London Olympics? And just because the original plant was bought over by another entity does not entitle the new entity to go scot free. Dear Indian Government, Why is that you are ready to take steps against a person/ entity/ group only when the whole world creates a hue and cry? Lakhs of Indians are still physically and mentally affected by the exposure to the gas leak on that fateful night of December 1984. Your own citizens. Today is the 26th of January, our Republic Day. But I feel no pride. The real pride lies when the Government and its people work towards the safety and welfare of its citizens. Dear Anderson, Still alive and kicking, really?

There are some moments in life when you actually feel that your childhood (probably not the right word) has come to an end. When you feel you cant behave like a brat and expect people to say- oh she’s just a kid. Being the youngest in my family and also at my work place, I never thought of myself as a grown up. Even when I started earning. Yesterday I met one of my closest friends & childhood playmate. She’s getting married and leaving the country in a few days . I knew it all along but when I said bye to her yesterday , it finally sunk into me that everything is changing. The house where we spent countless days playing choppu and other invented games is going to belong to someone else soon. God, I’l never forget those days. And it’s horrible to know it’l never come back.
