Yes we can

I have realised that every other person we meet in our daily life has some inspiring message. This attractive Canadian college student was with us as part of a training scheme for a month. We had not met for months and I did not realise she was trailing my blog. And we got in touch again. I was so damn proud when she said she had been tied down with her studies, slept hardly four hours a day, read 100 authors this year and wrote a 1,000 papers. Proud of you, MT.
There are others too. LP is a young SAP consultant, lost his job and his dad is in debt, but says will never let negative thoughts sap his zeal. BB does martial arts exercises around midnight as that’s when he gets time.
And our great blog friends. Each one of them is a great inspiration. How much strength I have gained by chatting with a few of my blog friends, oof.. you will not believe me. BTW, don’t forget that there are 200 million blogs floating around on the Net.
Finally, your own buddy, RR. Hey, you forgot damn it, that’s me. Down with a knee injury for a week, RR decided to wake up early, go for regular walks, work really hard, write brilliant stories, cook sumptuous food and improve skills overall. That he failed miserably on all fronts this week is another matter.
Hey, don’t laugh, I am serious.

  2. Looks like a small post but it's content speaks volumes. Nice piece of writing again...

    Yes, we tend to learn something or the other from the people we meet but not everyone we come across is a gentleman. So, how much we inspire depends on whether we are grasping from the good part of their character or not.

    Sad to hear about your knee injury, pray for your happy health, get well soon buddy.
