Conversations To MySelf...Nelson Mandela

I am reading this Book "Conversation with Myself" by Nelson Mandela and trying to relive those feelings... No matter i may fail but i can still feel that how he was feeling and been through. I am reading each letter again and again and trying to Feel each word. Awesome Book it is.

Here is One Letter Excerpt from Book

Excerpt from a letter to Fatima meer, dated 1 march 1971

'I shall stick to our vow: never, never under any circumstances, to say anything unbecoming of the other... The trouble, of course, is that most successful men are prone to some form of vanity. there comes a stage in their lives when they consider it permissible to be egotistic and to brag to the public at large about there unique achievements. What a Sweet euphemism for self-praise the english language has evolved ! Autobiography ..."

Looks are deceptive

Since Morning I am thinking about money and life... i updated few status updates of FaceBook as well.

Then few minutes back i got call from my dear friend sarvesh, he might have read those updates. He asked me one thing and wanted me to write it on facebook status. I thought and started writing and then I thought cutting sort that thought won't be good... so here it is.


when a girl or boy (we can take man or woman for more adult side) is not good looking (physical appearance) or say fat and not in hour glass figure (for girls) and not having six pack body, chiseled body (for men). He/she will compromise/more understanding and humble will be so sweet to others and people will say "so sweet" or "nice person".

Now if a girl or boy is good looking or say with hour glass figure and jaw dropping appearance then he/she would be more arrogant and more demanding or say Nakhare !!!

Does that mean Looks Matter... Looks are deceptive !!! Does that mean we change our behavior based on how we look ?

There is a tiny miney Hippocrite in all of us.. accept it.

I am not so good looking (right now) but what will happen to my behavior if I'll be good looking with six pack abs and nice features.

In Above piece of thoughts it is not applicable to all, based on what we have seen and experienced we thought this and I wrote this. Exceptions are always there, in both cases

a not so good looking person with bad behavior and a wowsome looking person with humble behavior.

Mostly I believe we do keeping pity in our mind, like we do charity keeping pity in our thoughts. I go to NGOs not because I am pity on them or I am proud that i am better than them.

I believe they are kids with no parents or not educated parents, so it depends on upbringing, how we can make difference, so I go there to show them and to explain them the importance of good behavior and try to give them good thoughts, a small part of upbringing.

So say truth to yourself, if not to anyone just to yourself, look into your own eyes directly in a mirror and think of what you doing. Clear Conscience is mirror of a person. It helps, it helped me.
