Jog
Off late i have started jogging in the evenings ... I go around China and Morocco clusters of International City . I-city happens to be a concrete jungle in the outskirts of Dubai ... I normally jog after 7 PM when the air is a little cooler ... I jog for around half an hour ... do some exercise... this is keeping me fit and fresh ...
The other day i wanted to experiment something new ... experimenting meaning nothing new ... just that i wanted to jog a little faster... i was in full enthu when i started ... i overtook a guy who was walking as fast as i used to jog normally ... this motivated me to run ... i ran .. i ran ... and finally felt i cannot run anymore so started walking ... the guy who walked fast overtook me in a jiffy ... darn !!!!

Aadhavan Songs
Just finished listening to songs from the movie " Aadhavan" ...
Quintessentially Harris Jayaraj Flicks ... Many songs sounded similar to his previous tunes ...
I liked two tracks
1. Dekho Dekho ... Good fusion
2. Hesile Fesilie ... This sounded more like Pudhu Pudhu song in the movie "Dham Dhoom"
Other songs are just ok ...

Freedom
Whenever I think of freedom the only thing that comes to my mind is the cry of William Wallace in the movie Braveheart.
" It's all for nothing if you don't have freedom. "
Quote
My friend had the following quote in her gtalk status message
"The wise speak when they have something to say, the foolish speak when they have to say something" ...
All I can infer from this quote is that I am a Wise Fool.
"The wise speak when they have something to say, the foolish speak when they have to say something" ...

Life's Little Instruction book
I got the following mail from my friend...
*** Life's Little Instruction Book ***
Always accept an outstretched hand.
Answer the phone with enthusiasm and energy in your voice.
Avoid sarcastic remarks.
Be a good loser. Be a good winner.
Be bold &courageous. When you look back on life, you'll regret the things you didn't do more than the ones you did.
Be confident. Even if you're not, pretend to be. No one can tell the difference.
Be modest. A lot was accomplished before you were born.
Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.
Begin each day with some of your favorite music.
Believe that miracles happen everyday.
Beware of the person who has nothing to lose.
Choose your life's mate carefully. From this one decision will come 90% of all your happiness or misery.
Compliment the meal when you're a guest in someone's home.
Count your blessings.
Don't allow the phone to interrupt important moments. It's there for your convenience, not the caller's.
Don't burn bridges. You'll be surprised how many times you have to cross the same river.
Don't expect life to be fair.
Give people a second chance, but not a third.
Have a firm handshake.
If in a fight, hit first and hit hard.
Keep a note pad and pencil on your bed-side table. Million-dollar ideas sometimes strike at 3 a.m.
Keep secrets.
Life’s not as complicated as you make it out to be.
Live your life so that your epitaph could read, No Regrets.
Look people in the eye.
Loosen up. Relax. Except for rare life-and-death matters, nothing is as important as it seems.
Make it a habit to do nice things for people who will never find out.
Make someone's day by paying the toll for the person in the car behind you.
Never deprive someone of hope; it might be all that they have.
Never give up on anybody.
Never waste an opportunity to tell someone you love them.
Once in a while, take the scenic route.
Own a great stereo system.
Remember no one makes it alone. Have a grateful heart and be quick to acknowledge those who helped you.
Remember that 80% of the success in any job is based on our ability to deal with people.
Send a lot of Valentine cards. Sign them, 'Someone who thinks you're terrific.'
Send your loved ones flowers. Think of a reason later.
Show respect for everyone who works for a living, regardless of how trivial their job.
Sing in the shower.
Take charge of your attitude. Don't let someone else choose it for you.
Think twice before burdening a friend with a secret.
Visit friends and relatives when they are in hospital; you need only stay a few minutes.
Wave at the children on a school bus.
When playing games with children, let them win.
When someone hugs you, let them be the first to let go.
