Memories

Memories While I agree that Diamonds do cost a lot, memories are still the most precious things in the world. Memories are endless. You create them even while thinking ! Memories are our identity. They formulate who we are in our heads. As you may have heard, it's important to know yourself. Well, just take the statement literally and then imagine how important it is to literally know who you are ! Imagine what would happen if you were to lose your memory.Short term memory loss sounds good only from the movie's perspective. In reality it will be a very scary situation.

B.E.L.I.E.F.  6 letters. One word. Bazillion different interpretations. If we go by what the oh-so-boring dictionary says, ‘belief’ is a vague idea in which some confidence is placed. Synonymous with faith, you could say. Your beliefs motivate you, make you the person you are or wish to be.  Be it the belief that everything will be alright by the end and if it's not alright then it's not the end (filmy much?) Or the belief that you'll pass an examination even after buying the books a day before the exam and studying for just a couple of hours. A belief is a belief no matter how humongous or petty.  Remember the cricket world cup? When India was on the brink of losing? Saying ' Dhoni hai nah..bass! ' is belief. Believing profoundly in something that you love doing always makes you do that something with twice the force and four times the joy.  Self-belief : Believing in yourself, your abilities only makes you stronger as an individual, pumpi...
