Care to donate any story books?

A school for the underprivileged in Bangalore would welcome your story book contribution. Their wish list on Amazon is here. A story book collection drive launched in 2009 was successful, but I wish to continue the effort.

What should I do with my life?


Dear Readers,
I shall be away from cyberspace for quite some time. Perhaps, I may be back only in February.
Till then adieu and hope to see you soon, in cyberspace or real life.
Meanwhile, I did chance upon Po Bronson's website with sample chapters from his books:
1) What shall I do with my life? and
2)Why do I love these people?
Some real gems here. So click on and read away.
Wishing you a happy life.
Regards,
Lubna

New Year Resolutions


When I wished one of my many ex-bosses a Happy New Year and lamented that 2008 had been a hard one and I hoped 2009 would be better, he did empathise, but mentioned that life goes on and there is no such thing as a new year. January 1, is no different in that sense from December 31, it is just another day in your life and upto YOU to make the most of it, no matter what it brings.
This brings me to the issue of New Year Resolutions. Wonder why we make them, and then break them.
Perhaps it is better to fix shorter more measurable goals as and when warranted. Now this is my New Year Resolution. 8-)
