Avid Readers Paradise

A popular saying goes, "The best things in life are free." Yes, this saying holds true when it comes to mother nature. But definitely not when its about human nature. The only thing that is free regarding human nature is a combination of their jealousy, hostility and inferiority complex (or superiority?) resulting in dire consequences. There are many examples to prove my statement. Travel a few years back to remind yourself of the time when you took that important decision about your career. You were pretty sure you wanted to be a flourishing and highly innovative fashion designer to spread your wings over the international markets. But since you hail from a family of engineers, almost each person you know disagreed to the extent of manipulating you to follow the legacy. As if that drama wasn't enough, then came the jibes and taunts from society filled with hidden meanings and sarcasm.  It was hard. You felt lonely in the struggle.

Here goes the to-do list: from the doctors, counsellors to seminars, workshops, healers, yoga classes, gymming , corporate meetings, children's responsibilities, household chores, spiritual masters and therapists. Phew! What a busy day. I better get moving in a jiffy." Does this sound almost similar to your everyday routine?

But I'm sure you do agree that most of us lead a hectic, purposeful, materialistic and a tad superficial life.

Overall, we are totally comfortable w...
