Happy New Year

Happy New year!

It is quite common to adopt new resolutions in the new year just to put them aside as few months pass by. Even though I am aware of this fact, here are my New Years' resolutions:

1. Re-start my 5am routine
  • Meditation
  • Spiritual reading
  • Exercise for 30 minutes
2. Less reading of Politics and more spiritual and technical reading

3. A lot more family time and take my son to the park at least 4 days a week

4. Reduce procrastination (small or big)

I am sure that these are resolutions that are not only achievable but will lend a balance in my life.

What are your resolutions? Do comment.

Natwar Singh's involvement in Oil for Food Programme

So, Natwar Singh has ruled out resigning from his post of Foreign Minster of India, according to this report in the Hindustan Times. He said, not for a moment the thought of resignation crossed his mind ever since the controversy broke a week ago and claimed that he enjoyed the full confidence of both Congress president Sonia Gandhi and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. "I am told that I am doing a good job so do you expect me to go to the Prime Minister and say that since I am doing a good job I am putting in my papers," he said. This would mean that the PM Manmohan Singh and Super-PM Sonia Gandhi are putting India in an embarrasing position in front of the world. India is a major part of UN and by talking about lodging a case against UN is preposterous, to say the least. Both Natwar and the Congress government should resign as they all have been alleged to have been involved in this scam. You cannot rule a country with such low morals and ethics. Anyways, UPA government, ...

My kid's notes

Just like any father, I feel proud when my 5 year old son does something that makes you go "damn...how does he get these ideas?". Recently, he wrote about our trip to my hometown of Porbandar in his daily notebook that he has to ready in school. He had gone to see Peacocks and saw a lot of them. Here is what he wrote about it and then drew a picture. Looking at the picture, the peacock on the right is standing with his feet firmly planted on the ground. However, the peacock on the left has bent his legs and is getting ready for take off. I was zapped since I didn't expect such thinking from him.

Abhinav takes his first wicket

Last weekend, more precisely on Sunday October 14th, Abhinav took his first wicket ever.  He got some boy out leg before wicket.  I have heard the story about a million times about how he ran up real fast and how the batsman try to pull his ball and how the ball hit his back leg and the coach declared him out. It was pure joy and innocence on the face of Abhinav that I saw, something I wish I still retained.  Sometimes, I feel this is what sports are all about or rather should be.  His tiny 6 year old friends told him that they will inform everyone in their school bus that Abhinav took his 1st wicket.  I know many say that you should teach your kids to win at any cost, to make them winners.  I tend to disagree. I have always believed that means to an end are more important than the end itself.  I try to inculcate the same in Abhinav.  Play the sport the right way and respect all the players even when they may not be as good at the sport as yo...
