rejuvenation .... is possible

me.. i am one of those wandering souls ..
and i still haven't decided or settled upon lots of WHY's n HOW's in life.. but i neither stop questioning why and how.. and every lil answer i find... i cherish it !!


its chaios theory ... every lil decision you make has innumerable consequences... and one such decision was i could write a blog?! and i landed on the blogspot..deep down still figuring.. "do you want the world to kno what you are thinking?? you have to go blatant, plain, even rude .. " and then i decide " jus be straight forward .. jus say what yo want.." and the moment i had the you kno.. nelly furtado 'say what yo want attitude'... i knew i had to post all the statutory warnings... thats the tag on this blog!! "until you empty your cup..." its the old Zen Buddhism tale... if you could be a lil open hearted, open minded and pay heed to what the other person has to say.. give your friend a chance to voice his view .. the world wud be a better place to live...

and the tale...
"there was a monk and a disciple... like all the naive and untrained minds .. the disciple was rugged and unfocused .. to get the guy to think on his feet and make him focus , sitting on the expensive rug that belonged to the disciple .. the monk started to pour tea in a lil cup for his disciple and he kept pouring,.. the cup went half full, then near full and was full till the brim... but the monk didnt stop.. he kept pouring.. the cup overflowed and started to spill on his precious rug.. the disciple screamed " cant you see the cup is full!! no matter how much you pour no more will get into it!!".. then the monk stopped, smiled and said "that is what you are doing.. your mind is like the cup... if you are full of yourself ,your views your ideas, then you will fail to see the new, fresh,fascinating ideas around you... empty your cup and you ll feel rejuvenated!!"..(n ya in the famous chinese accent)...
and i got to think ... so finally rejuvenation is possible?!!
thats good news!! to stay young and grow wise!!
