The Rabbit Who Never Stopped

We're all familiar with the rabbit-tortoise story, yes, the one where the faster rabbit lost to the relatively slower tortoise, due to his laziness. The story that had ended with a moral of being more steady. The rabbit was told to learn from the tortoise. And so he did, the incident was remembered by generations of rabbits, it always reminded them of the silly mistake their ancestor had committed and along with that it was a matter of shame for them. The whole species was being seen as lazy lads now, and it disappointed a young rabbit a lot. He knew that he wasn't like that one old folk who had lost, he was different. He believed that rabbits had improved in terms of speed as well as steadiness, and no rabbit was foolish enough to commit the same mistake again. But it wasn't just about his faith, he needed to prove himself to others too. With all these thoughts in his mind, he left his bushes early in the morning, heading straight to the outskirts of the forest, the place where tortoises resided. On reaching there he challenged the first tortoise he saw for a race.

Tortoise refused, "I've got better business to do",
and the rabbit challenged, "Is that the fear of losing?"
"Joy of winning & sorrow of losing don't affect me. "
"Then what is that is keeping you from accepting my challenge."
"I don't accept challenges, I, however can accompany you in a run. "
"See it as whatever you want to."

The Social Network Effect

Like, Share, Tag, Tweet, Retweet, Follow, Plus1, Pin etcetera etcetera, these words may sound alien to many of the elders but I'm damn sure that almost every student reading this is familiar with these words. How can we not be? These words are a part of our everyday routine. The day starts with a tweet on twitter and ends up with responding to messages and comments on Facebook. Pinning some pictures on pinterest and hanging out on Google+ is also essential. We can somehow manage without food & water but not without Internet even for a day, it's like getting trapped in a void, and getting disconnecting from the world.

There are so many USPs of it. Social education, social music, social videos, social news & social everything. Wanna talk to some friends? Just click! Wanna go shopping? Just click! Wanna entertain yourself? Just click! Nowadays, you can just click to do almost anything, it's easy, convenient & cool. And this conference made me realize that all the social networking addict students' days are almost same. Waking up, going to school, gossiping about social networks, coming back to home, before anything else turning on computer, checking notifications & messages & replying to them, eating lunch only when it's impossible to survive without it, skipping the dinner and then in bed networking once again on phone. Seeing their routine, it can be easily concluded that not only thousands or millions but even billions & trillions merely waste their days, months, years & sometimes ages on social networks.

With efforts & hope, All dreams come true...

The common perception is that,"Not all dreams come true, not all desires fulfill & we can't get all things we want & we should forget uncompleted targets & keep moving forward with life." But I don't agree with this concept, I think one shall soever keep trying to get targets achieved until eternity. You can't just leave something in middle just because you suddenly realized that it's gonna be a difficult task, you can't just let your previous efforts go in vain just because you suddenly lost your hope of completing the task. Once you've started a journey, don't think about the upcoming difficulties & challenges you're gonna face on path, think about the satisfaction of completing the journey which you'll feel on reaching destination. Falling several times might be written in your destiny but your destiny will be decided by your decision to get up and continue or sit right there & curse the fate. The main thing is that you have to continue your efforts & keep trying. You might fail several times but if you keep striving vigorously, you eventually will succeed, your dreams will some day come true for sure. You never know how close you are. Never give up on your dreams... They might come true when not needed anymore, they might come true when not wanted anymore, they might come true when they're of no use but sometimes journey is more important than the destination. Feeling of starting something is better than feeling of not even daring to try & feeling of completion is far better than feeling of hopelessly giving up.
