Ten Thought Tuesday

1.        I am thinking of running for President of US… Don’t ask me why…cause then I will have to tell you I read this  and when I go to this part -“Her keynote speech, it should be noted, had the crowd on its feet. "Run, Sarah, run," the crowd chanted (as in "please run for president in 2012").”- I had a very obsessive urge to run for President.  Oh Boy!! I did read that when the Roman and Greek Empires declined, their Rulers were Despots and there was a lot of infighting… If this is the case then I hope what has been interpreted of 2012 calendar of the Mayans is True.   Oops I’m sorry, I forgot I wasn’t going to tell you why…but I guess that shows how qualified I am to run for President.  *giggling*

2.       Coffee is great no matter what the politics is but I am dissappointed to learn that Baby carrots arent miniature carrots but pieces of carrot carved from the bulk carrots. 

3.       Pigeons are so good at crowding in impossible places to build their nests. I wonder if that is the reason they are symbols of peace.  Ok, my logical brain has taken a vacation, cause that thought didn’t make sense to me. Did it, to you?

4.       I am hopeless at writing Business letters…its just the opposite of writing poems.  Words just don’t flow.

5.       I got Thich Nhat Hanh’s  “Being Peace”  its really good.. I will post a few quotes in a few days from the three books of his I am reading… It is insightful. Oh wait, I wonder if I do put the quotes here, would that violate the copyright ?

6.       Every time I read any book on self-help, I wonder if I will ever really use what I read to my betterment or if I will ever grow up… On the other hand, being young is great around the children. 

7.       My children think being Grown up is fun cause they get to stay up late and read as many books as they can, should I tell them otherwise or should I let them have their illusion?

8.       The weather is having a tough time making up its mind. Guess it is a reflection of my own confusion.

9.       I wonder if none of us had any opinion about anything, would the world be a more peaceful place to live in?  After all we cant argue against something that hasn’t been said yet. Or maybe then the argument will be about how we don’t have an opinion?

10.   I will be 39 years old(god!! I cant believe I survived this long) this year and Life still doesn’t make sense to me, at times I wonder if it ever will?

Where you are, may smiles curve your lips and lift your spirits.  Have a wonderful day!

I'll be 36. I read TNT's books many times. And I am still addicted to coffee.
Now, does this qualifies ME to run for president?

i'm devastated to learn that fact about baby carrots :(

Shail Mohan said...

Life won't make any sense a decade down the line, let me assure you Rashmi! ;)

Mindsnomad Yay said...

LOL Shailji, you had to put a spanner in my expectations for the next Decade?

Mindsnomad Yay said...

I cant tell you how devastated I was... Iost the bet to my husband.. Oy!

Mindsnomad Yay said...

What's wrong with being Picky *giggling*.. I ALWAYS deserve the best ;)

Teeny Weeny Tiger said...

Not until they change the laws. I am not born here. Not even a citizen. lol.

Mindsnomad Yay said...

Being a citizen will happen, if you want to be one. I was looking at capability, critical thinking and speaking skills... but then we can never say, if people want Palin to run, maybe they dont understand what being a LEADER means. For a while when I read that article I thought, they meant Run Sarah cause if we catch you its not going to be good.. Hah!!! for my naive thinking.

"Run, run run, Rashmi!!!" ;)

Coffee IS great. Man, my beliefs in baby carrots have been shattered ;).

Still trying to wrap my brain around the pigeon comment lol...maybe they crowd all the bad stuff out so there has to be peace?

39? Happy early birthday! Heck I am 48 and am still not "grownup", whatever that word really means. One is never too old to be childlike, that is my motto.

Mindsnomad Yay said...

That makes sense. LOL. could be.. I have no idea why I thought of the Pigeon nesting and Peace....So I accept that explanation. See I can learn to be accepting without needing explanations of my own. Thank you J.
