Count your chicken...

They say dont count your chicken before they hatch.
I ask "What if the chicken die after hatching well?"

So when do we count them?

even if there is a subtle idea behind what you want to say, I find an irony...
they advise not to count your chickens before they hatch only because we are not sure how many will die even after hatching successfully.
Or I am wrong??

Well, the corollary to their statement would clear up your confusion I guess " Count your chickens only after they hatch"

Does it not contrast my statement? :)

Mookkile Pallu.. :D

Actually, this is a post which needs an amount of humor sense and understanding of Malayalam. If you dont have either, please feel free to browse other posts, or leave for better work. :) And yes, the saying in malayalam "Mookkil Pallu Mulakkya" [Literal Translation- "Tooth growing in Nose" heheh!!! It just means, 'getting old before something that is usually done, is not done.' (Any better interpretations are welcome.:) ) ] So, for the ones who are carrying on, I hope you do really have a bit of common sense. :) Cos, otherwise, the post wont make sense to you.. :) Now, this was a chat, I had with a chat-friend of mine, one month or so before..While I was browsing thru my old chats, I found this piece and felt the analogy beautiful.. :) Sharing it with you... It was kinda 9 o' clock I guess.. An excerpt. Changed from our chat lingo, a bit, for better understanding. " Him : So you had a bonanza this time.Onam n bday. me : :) yeah.. but it was no bi

I dont see much of selfless love around in the world. A mother's love is said to be the best form of love for humans. Even that is cos, the baby is hers. It is her own self or a part of her she loves.. :) The fact that an adopted child is not loved as much by a mother proves my point.

Love Thyself. :)

The bestest thing about being me is that I am unique. No other me in the whole goddam world. Know how beautiful it feels? :) To be me? I love being myself, with all the flaws and goodness in me. Once, I remember telling a friend of mine when asked how I could love people so much, "You love yourself first. Then you start seeing yourself in others. And then you love others as much." Corollary, "If you can't love yourself, you cant love others." [Same as what Jesus advised. ' Love others as you love yourself. '] And trust me, when I love the way I am, it is easier for me to love others. Including their imperfections. And anyways, it is their imperfections that complete them. :) Take care guys.. It feels awesome to be me. :) Dont you too? Cheerz! A happy Durga :)
