Happy doormatting!

I remember long back during my school days my friend used to talk about being a doormat. As my habit is, I used to laugh and forget the matter thinking of it as a joke. Or the fact could be that I wasn’t interested in thinking about it. Now , giving it a thought, I can say that ‘being a doormat’ phase of anyone’s life is the most painful one!
Here goes the story of a doormat…. It is beautiful, colorful and is used by numerous people who don’t even notice what they are using! The doormat lies there on the doorsteps, cleaning others dirt and getting dirty instead. And the reward! Yes, the final reward that it gets is that it gets torn into bits by overuse and is replaced….
What a fate! So any doormats out there???? Beware…. Don’t get exploited is the trend of today!

Manpower....

I wonder at the meaning of manpower. Is it the mere population count or the effective population? well....by effective population i mean that fraction which is skilled and contributes to the growth....of infrastructure or resources.
India having such a huge population and with a high fertility rate should have been the most prosperous country... but we know the truth.
It is heard that china is suffering from major labor crisis. i guess because of low fertitily rate one day there will be a HR crunch there.
so where is our country? behind or ahead?

Blaze....

16.5 degrees , the temperature set in that air conditioned hall. Outside, the sun was at its maximum shine and the clocks ticked 2 p m. Oh well, coming to the point, the drastic difference between the natural and the man made is what I am pondering on… Had anyone known that a day would come when the creativity of mankind would take over the natural rules and phenomenon….. Thanks to the inventor!
The scorching sunlight and the rushing hot air at 40+ degrees, (cant call it wind…its too pleasant a word I guess…) burns down the epidermis of the skin as if it were giving that withheld message of nature. “ look what u have done! It is beyond the range set for man!”.
And you say… “Oh hell…what nonsense! I possess all rights to make my life comfortable” . Well said! Bravo!
The rift between nature and mankind!
