Two Stones, One Bird

I never would have imagined such a day, in existence. I surely can call myself a Reader now. What kind, is still a mystery. But what entails is, give me a random piece and I would eat it up. Keeps things interesting  and that is how I see it.

It is a matter of perspective after all. And what pushed me to finally write this, after putting out for long, is a fellow blogger.

Perspective, is something that our brain is wired to have. And it is at the heart of what makes your personality. You often draw from these very experiences to give you direction in time of need. I truly believe one would be lost if they don't form their opinions. Key though remains to avoid overdoing and be open minded when it comes to people. Everybody makes mistakes. Where am I getting with all this bull, you ask? It's the other side. I am an opinionated person to an extent. I do believe though, I am good at reading people somewhat. I am rigid, and also, flexible, if only you reason with me with logic. And all this leads to the inferno where I preach what I believe in, in no uncertain terms, so much so that sometimes I believed what works for me, works for everyone else, sometimes.

But the recent interview process, puts things into perspective, better than ever. If I may say so, people who converted, can be put into two very different schools of thought, yet they both succeeded. And, I probably am the one that stands alone. There was absolutely no preparation, as it often renders one giving cooked up answers. Even my clothes raised a couple of eyebrows among friends, since nothing matched. In short, it was what that has been ingrained into my soul, LITE LENA. On the other end, were people who have always studied hard, and prepared with equal vigor for the interview. Spic Span looks, with equally confident demeanor, and rightly so.

Realization is simple. You need to do what suits you, and gives that extra confidence in yourself to allow you to sail through. There's no right or wrong. So was I wrong in preaching what I did for the past year, and even now. Absolutely not. It's a matter of perspective. Only thing, I could have been less aggressive. But you can't really blame a man for LITEning the mood ;)

  1. Like you mentioned, the "Key though remains to avoid overdoing and be open minded when it comes to people."
    Truth is that people know it, but wouldn't do it, it's so hard to accept that there can be another reality :)

    1. Yeah. You tend to believe what your experience has taught you. Not really bad, but the only thing to be certain of is that there are many different fishes in the sea.

    1. True. My only question remains is, is one wrong in believing his/her perception and preaching that. After all, you can only preach what you know and believe in. It's for others to decide if they want to follow that it adapt.

Review: Dialogue in the Dark (DiD), Hyderabad - An Unlit Experience of a kind

Ambiance ***** Food **** Experience ***** Overall ***** Often, we wonder, how would it be like to experience the world in someone else's shoes. Dialogue in the Dark gives you an overwhelming experience on one such foray. Located in the sprawling Madhapur area of Hyderabad, a stones throwaway from the Hitech City, this is the area of the city that will blend modern India with the city of Nizams for you. Located on the 3rd floor of Inorbit Mall, as soon as you reach the reception desk of the restaurant, you'll start feeling awe. What greets you is an 'unassuming' person at the reception, who matter of factly mentions, that this experience would be unique for you. There are rules to be followed, and he hands over a list of the same - key being, you don't have anything on you which emits light, in any environmental condition. Curiously placed are a few Walking Sticks lying in a corner allow your imagination run wild for a little while. The m...

Google Allo - And its Content Ratings on iOS

Google just launched their new messaging app Allo in an already overcrowded market. Now there are plenty of opinions online, that you can read, talking about what are the chances that Allo succeed, so we are not going to talk about it here. However, when trying to download the app on iOS through App Store, an interesting thing caught my attention. The content rating that was given to this messaging app was 17+ with further click ins such as: Nudity, Profanity etc. On the other hand, a simple comparison with WhatsApp (the debatable leader in the market), you'd realize the same has a rating of 4+. Screenshot Dt. 23rd Sept 2016: Taken on India App Store on iPhone Similar to PG ratings on entertainment contents, App Store has the following scale : 4+, 9+, 12+ and 17+ with the varying scales of nudity, profanity, violence and other such adult (not "child" safe) references. But its simply baffling to have such a huge gap between the content rating for tw...

Invasion of Privacy, or Not?

OR NOT Disclaimer: Expressed below are my views on a topic that I believe to be touchy with many people. They, are not, in any way, related to Google or any other giant, and are not endorsed in any capacity by the same. What little knowledge that I have gained in the little time that I have spent in the company yet, has no implication on what I express here. Every idea has a seed. Some may call the idea itself a seed.  Big or small, the seed is the key. The origin of this post has something that is similar and very interesting. Something that has stemmed over a good part of the internet age. The argument between where to draw the line in terms of privacy. Having started recently, there was a healthy argument on the same with a fellow noogler during one of the sessions. And that brought back everything from the vault. The argument always remains, that big internet companies, with the extent that they have penetrated into the internet sphere, and the amount of informati...
