emotionally controlled

Emotions are feelings that are generated by our mental state at a given point of time. It is a spontaneous reaction to situations which fills us with joy, sorrow or fear. It could be feeling of love or hatred. In short, it is what we are made of…

Sometimes emotions could be negative and sometimes positive. Many things in life are controlled by emotions. Tears in the eyes of our loved ones make our eyes moist and we start to control it either by overcoming the emotions or mixing some other feelings with the situation to make it sober for them.

Love is a feeling towards the person we care. If there is no control over love towards someone then sometimes it grows to such an extent that people cannot accept rejection in love and get negative emotions which leads to crime to others (murder) or one self (suicide). Such kind of emotion deviates one from the actual route.

There are other larger aspects of life where people play with emotions on a large scale. The people in film industry are actually displaying their talents and they indirectly play with the emotions of the people. The scripts and the situation in the movies directly reflect to our lives and we start relating and reacting with our own sense of emotions. The marketing people out there display their talents in advertising theme of the movies in such a way that people actually get into the theatres. Then it’s up to the director who plays with people emotions to make a movie work.

Even during getting votes from people it’s basically the people emotions associated with a party. In marketing world people interact with people to get the business moving. But this won’t work if it’s not from the heart and only done to get the work done.

Negative or excess emotions needs to be controlled which is basic fact of life. The whole world is emotionally controlled but if this is not a controlled one then it could lead to wrong deed.

Page 123 of "five point someone"

I am completely naïve to this bloggers tag and was only familiar with this tag until I was tagged by gaizabonts. If I start writing on this I could only do one thing and that is cheating for I have not read a book for a long time. The only book which I borrowed from my cousin in an attempt to read was the “five point someone” which is lying unattended in my cupboard. I had read only the first chapter and now page no: 123.

Here are the fifth, sixth, seventh, eight and ninth sentences from page number 123 of "five point someone" book.

Actually, the life Alok's mother led at home intrigued me. Somehow, her clutching her sari to wipe her tears had been the only image I had been stuck with for the past year but now I realized she had a life too. The challenges she faced were not quite lube research proposals, but pricey tomatoes nonetheless.

"And you know the sofa springs are coming out..." she was saying when Alok interrupted her.

"Mom, Can you please keep quiet.

My ten words...
We forget to understand the feelings of our loved ones.

Sugar - Sweet or Bitter ?

We were on our way to Shani Shignapur to take blessing from Shani God. Our Maruti halted at its destined location for refreshment. I was thrilled to see sugarcane juice extracted using animal power. Juice was extracted by making the cow move round the wooden rollers which crushed the sugarcane. We had a refreshing sugarcane juice.

The juice did refresh me but then I felt, how monotonous it was for the animal to move round the rollers for the whole day and then get a hit on the back for every increase in demand for juice from the people.

Sugar may be sweet and refreshing for us but bitter for them.

How to quit smoking?

“Winners never quit and quitters never win.”
                                     -- Vince Lombardi


This is not true always. It all depends on what is quit.

There are lots of reasons for smoking and very less for quitting smoking. If ever one needs the reason to quit smoking one can think of following:

  1. Just read the Statutory Warning “Smoking is Injurious to Health” on the cigarette packet and think why should I smoke?
  2. Watch the others smoke and start thinking why should I be a copycat?
  3. If ever there is craving for smoking, think of the smoke emitted by the vehicle.
  4. Never quit smoking for reason someone near and dear but for oneself, because when one is hurt he/she gets a reason to smoke.
  5. If there is post on how to quit smoking ignore it and stop such post by quitting smoking.

If nothing of the above works then let’s check Other Sides Now for smoking.

How to smoke quietly?
  1. Keep a match box or a lighter handy (not in the pocket).
  2. While going for a smoke take only friends who smoke.
  3. Smoke away from public places. This ensures minimum people staring at you.
  4. If at all any friends come to you while smoking just keep the cigarette aside and start abusing the person who left the cigarette there.
  5. If ever you think of smoking again read the above post "How to quit Smoking".

These are the some ways to QUIeTly smoke/ING…considering Both Sides Now.
