Lessons Learnt

A day into the new year and it has already shown me how "new" can be "new" :). In a brief power point style the lessons learnt are:

(a) Finally understand what Strings meant by "Dil Bhuj Gaya/Ghar Jal Gaya/Na Jaane Kyun"

(b) Dont Tempt Fate unless you are absolutely rocking sure of something is going to work or else Murphy is going to work the other way.

(c) Need to memorize the meaning of the following verse so much so that if someone wakes you up in the middle of the night I should be able to spew them with the same fervor

If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

Arz hai,

Ye Issq nahin asan Itna samajh lije,
Ek aag ka dariya hai aur Doob ke jana hai.
dil ka jalna lazmi hai,fakat ye woh rahein hain jahan koi jalta hai koi jalata hai.
Aj aap jalein hai,kal koi aur jalega.
