Random pearls

For people who put on airs:
Question: Are you familiar with Shakespearean poetry?
The obvious answer: Of course!
My reply: "All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players... Yours my dear is to play a drama queen."


Whether you name a nearby place or a far off one, there are a breed of auto-rickshaw drivers who would sit in their parked space and watch the world go by from morning to night without moving an inch.
I realised I am asking the wrong question. Next time, instead of asking him to drop me at my destination I should ask him where he is willing to go.


Food for thought - Open your mouth only if what you are going to say is more beautiful than silence.


Sarcasm or honesty?
Everyone has a purpose in life. Mine is to occupy space, curl up and sleep.


Troll:
I am the person in the before pictures of the fake hair growth, weight loss and fair skin ads


Dress however you please
Comfortable loose fitting pants
Or stylish knee length gowns
Keep it classy or mix and match
Your style is your own
People who criticise your style are not the ones paying for your clothes so it doesn't matter
Worry about weight issues for health reasons not on fashion front


Some alternative uses
A long stemmed rose, not to adorn or decorate, but to twirl in between your thumb and index finger while day dreaming.
A fat unlit cigar, not to puff on, but to hold beneath your nose and take a long whiff while pondering.
An empty smoking pipe, not to smoke, but to hold between your teeth and tongue for emphasis.
A ballpoint pen, not to write, but to repeatedly twist between your fingers for concentration.

It's a good life if you have to answer only one question, 'what should I eat next?'

Friend or foe, anyone can say anything to your face or talk rubbish behind your back. Words have power and opinions become valid only if you let it. You can either choose to shed meaningless tears over it or ignore and carry on your merry way. Power to you.


Not all doors are open, not all people are accepting. Cherish the ones that welcome you with open arms.
