One of the interesting comments on that was from a lady, whose view point was a little different from mine. At the time, I was a qu...

| Memory......... |
| Memory is often used to recollect bad experiences, feelings rather than using it to recall / remember good expereinces or feelings; In most cases, left to itself, our mind tries to recollect bad experiences/feelings and never, as a rule, recollects experiences that had positive effect on us. I had this experience recently when I casually advised on...

Though it is the monsoon season, the wind is one ...

I have a feeling with the way Dhoni is using Yusuf Pathan that Dhoni is setting Yusuf for failure.You can see the difference ...
