Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow.

Someone kill them instead....

Taleban 'will kill school girls' from BBC

Taleban militants in the Swat valley in north-west Pakistan have threatened to kill girls who attend school.

A simple and logical read :)

The lack of female Einsteins is all down to numbers from New Scientist

Why are there so few female Einsteins? Many people share a belief that while women can do science, there are far fewer women than men at the very top of the science hierarchy because women just aren't as innately good at science as men. Others feel this view is wrong but cannot easily put their finger on why.

They should be able to now. There are few women at the top of science because there are so few women in science. It's simple statistics.

...

you can no longer cite the greater number of men among the most successful people as evidence of innate differences until the effects of participation rates have been allowed for," says Bilalic.

In short, it's hardly surprising that there are so few women Einsteins when there are so few male ones – and so many more men are trying.

Hopping for a better new year!!!

Another year almost gone by... and life seems to have taken a leap. Strange, a year I will never forget yet it is not memorable at all.

Wishing the New Year bring happiness and smiles and success and much more!!!

I am still determined to be cheerful and happy, in whatever situation I may be; for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances.

When silence sets in and you look at your life...

What do you see...
The moments that you let failure engulf you?
Or the moments that you picked yourself up?

Whom do you remember...
Those who gave you a hand to get though tough times?
Or those who stood by just watching?

What makes you feel proud...
Those triumphs that everyone patted your back for?
Or those that in private moments make you think yes I did that right?

Who are you most comfortable with...
The person who always agrees with you?
or the one who honestly disagrees with you?

What do you appreciate more...
Always being told the right path?
or making your own way?

What do you value more...
A fake complement?
Or a sincere silence?

What guides you through life...
Every one's expectations?
Or your own decisions?

What puts smile on your face...
Acquisitions of life?
Or a smile on faces you love?

What gives you peace...
nature?
or nurture?

And what gives you happiness...

Thought

I think the decision has finally been made...
i guess no more bouncing back and forth...
i guess no more either this way or that...
i guess no more will it work or not...
i guess no more is it or not...
i guess no more...
i guess...

I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.

आने वाली खुशियाँ और बीता हुआ गम

थोड़ी सी मान मे शांति और थोड़ी सी उदासी
पंख फैलाने की इकछा और कही घर छूटने का गम
कुछ सपनो को पूरे करने की हिम्मत और कुछ टूटे सपनो के चुभने का डर
मंज़िलो की ओर बढ़ते कदम और वापस कीचता हुआ ये सूनापन
खुद पे करना है विषवास और टूटे सारे भरोसे
किसी की उम्मीद और टूटी सारी आशाए
आने वाली खुशियाँ और बीता हुआ गम

-- शोभना

aane wali kushiya aur beeta hum gam

thodi si man main hai shanti aur thodi si hai udasi
pankh phalane ki ikcha aur kahi ghar chutne ka gam
kuch sapno ko pura karne ki himmath aur kuch tute sapno kechubhne ka dar
manzillo ki or badhte kadam aur vapas kichta hua ye sunapan
kudh pe karna hai vishwas aur tute sare bharose
kisi ki umeedhaur tuti sari aashayian
aane wali kushiya aur beeta hua gam

कशीश

तुमसे ही बातें करने की और खामोशी से गुम हो जाने की
तुमको ही बहो मे भरने की और तुमही से आखे चुराने की
तुमसे ही रूठने की और तुमही को मानने की
तुमको ही समझने की और तुमही को भूल जाने की
तुमसे ही दूर जाने की और तुम्हारे संग ज़िंदगी बिताने की
कशीश
--शोभना

kashish

thum se hi baatain karne hi aur khamoshi se gum ho jane ki
thumko hi bhaho main sharne ki aur thumhi se aakhien churane ki
thumse hi ruthne ki aur thumhi ko manane ki
thumko hi samajhne ki aur thumko hi bhul jaane ki
thumse hi dur jaane ki aur thumhare sang zindagi bitane ki
kashish
