bangalore to jhansi

Karnataka express leaves Bangalore at 19:20 hours. She gave two wait listed tickets to us in Tatkal. If the tickets dont get confirmed then you can get refund otherwise not.
There was a bulky guy and an army man. There were others who were exchanging and adjusting for seats. I wanted to exchange my seat too but the person was not available until Sholapur so I had to be content with middle berth.
The young lads were in engineering college in Bangalore. They had laptops and heavy duty mobile phones and the train had three way sockets to get the electronics going. Thankfully the same sockets would trip every few minutes to discourage the desperate and entertain the rest.
We were having food and they would attempt to check the power point at our berth, the wire would hang lose and touch the food but they dont care.
They put metallic and ear piercing music which could drive a normal ear crazy but they dont care.
They would put ugly, disgusting, downtrodden and filthy horror movie and everyone buddy would fall over and occupy the berth and the designated users would be confined to top berth in chilling AC compartment but they dont care.
They would talk about police and accidents and how they thrashed people and about police cases against their names and their rash driving and their ex-girlfriend in front of their current girlfriend and I wouldnt care.
They played cards and I helped one and they were courteous to me. I would switch On and Off the lights and they would understand that I was acting reading. I just wanted to sleep as I could not take the crappy movie any longer and moreover Jhansi came at 3:20 and they all tried to pause and wait for me to settle before they finished the movie.
They kept calling me Uncle and they didnt care but I felt.
Jhansi did come at 3:20 but the train would not budge from outer till 4:30. There was another family who had to catch a connecting train at 4:30 but they would have missed it.

Success is exchange of energy

The definition of success is very elusive. It means different things in different phases of life to different people. When I was in school and college it was to pass somehow. When I was in 12th it was to get into engineering somehow. When I was in job it was to make more money anyhow. When you were in marriage it was to demand happiness and feel proud in pronouncing to yourself that every act of a frustrating job was for the sake of family and their well being. I was focusing on doing. I was focusing on achievement. So whenever I reflected back in life I always felt less. I could have been an IITian, I could not crack CAT. I could not join an organization during their early stock offer days. I could not go to US and earn in dollars. I simply missed doing too many things.  Now I feel lack of achievement. Now I feel lack of doing. Did I miss out on something while I was undergoing all this doing? Why was I nervous all this while? Why did one achievement led to other? Why...

Shivani, Brahmakumaries and Aastha channel

She comes twice on TV from 7:10 PM to 7:40 PM and 10:30 to 11:00 PM on Aastha channel. The spiritual channel story in India is on same lines as that of Aaj Tak , which was run by local ads before the big boys put ads on them. Today Shivani, a Brahmakumari mentioned that 99% of the cause of anger and frustration is elsewhere, it is not in the spur of the moment, when you hurt somebody or get hurt by somebody. Instead of reacting instantaneously , or pestering the reaction in the mind post the incident till eternity , can you wonder "Why is that soul so angry, what is bothering her? I am sure there is something more than what she has told me now?". The chain of thoughts that emerge lead you to compassion, releases love vibrations into the air. Love has a very subtle medium to reach out. You cannot yell and throw around love and claim that you are helping somebody by your love. You have to surrender to love and let love take over. You cannot correct the world. You can onl...

fix for tweetmeme button on blogger

This was the second time when I was pained to locate a proper place to place the tweetmeme buton in blogger. The tutorial has suggested keeping it between b:loop values = 'data:posts' var = 'post'> and ‘b:loop’. Also there are two such places where you can place the code. If you place in lower one then it will appear only if ads appear in your blog. The above has not worked for me and I am not sure about you, do you Meme?. I searched for a place near the spans at end of post and put it above the below line " <p class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> And it seems to work. You can meme below and retweet and check for yourself. Have you been struggling with button placement in blogger?
