From one decade to another

its getting 2 be a decade after we all passed out of NDRI! and I still remember the excitement i had (back in mid 2006) when v were getting 2 be a decade after we all met first time in NDRI. I continue to be excited now, when i realise this moment of another decade.

So we are here, decades apart, in-between from when we met, to when we got to move on in life. I had a lot of perspectives in these decades that have unfold. I still feel warm and bright, when i think of Y2Katz. I intend to share my perspectives in a series that will unfold from now to Jun'10.

I have a lot to share about us and I know you all will be having some. So lets get together to pull our thoughts and create a blog

Cheers to Y2Katz

Must Read for all married Katz of 2000

Below are 7 magical words which WOMEN use alonwith some usage and explanation:

FINE
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
FIVE MINUTES
If she is getting dressed, this is half an hour. Five minutes is only 5 minutes if you have just been given 5 more minutes to watch thegame before helping around the house.
NOTHING
This is the calm before the storm. This means "something," and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with 'Nothing' usually end in"Fine"
GO AHEAD
This is a dare, not permission. Don't do it.
LOUD SIGH
This is not actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with youover "Nothing"
THAT'S OKAY
This is one of the most dangerous statements that a woman can make to aman. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
THANKS
A woman is thanking you. Do not question it or faint. Just say you're welcome.
WHATEVER
It's a woman's way of saying *!#@ YOU!

Think About It

Dharma Kiye Dhan Na Ghaate Nadi Ghate Naa Neer Apni Aakhan Dekh Lo Kaha Gaye Das Kabir means "One does not decrease his wealth by giving donation. A river does not experience any depletion of its water. Kabirdas wants you to see this on your own"

In last few years I came across few people in my life who gave me new definition of happiness. I learnt that sparing few valuable moments of your life for others give you great satisfaction and it helps others in having joy which they would not have otherwise imagined.

Do you think you need a chance? We need not search for an avenue to start. Around us, we get so many opportunities to do it. To start just think of a person who makes you feel "he is a loser".
Think "What can I do for not making me think like that about him?". Once you have the answer, pull up your socks, get determined and resolve that you are going to never think in the same way about him / her.

Take it as a challenge and bring him / her to a position which would have otherwise impossible. You know what you would be doing in the process, you would be creating a person who will have strong faith in you and then all you have to do is to pass this message!!

You would spread this message through people whom you supported which would mean it would be deep rooted!! Before dropping the 1 /- in charity think is this a real solution? Can you do something better?

I used this forum for putting my thought because most of you reading this are in a position to do, what I am expecting. I also know people reading this are having better ideas to enlighten the rest, this may be a small idea but a definite beginning..........

Lights, Camera, Action !!

How many times in a year we do power point presentations (PPTs)? Well, the answer to this question may vary... but invariably we end up doing it for various reasons.

How about a presentation without any slides? Technically, that's what we normally call a lecture and it is as good as the speaker's ability to hold the interest of audience. Here is an example of a speaker's excellent oratory skills.

The speaker is Sir Ken Robinson and he is talking about the importance of "creativity in education".

Don't let the topic distract you from not watching this video. Because the point is we can also do likewise and bring a life to otherwise lifeless PPTs.

Enjoy,
Akshay
