Thank you Bindu :). I guess we all need that push, sometimes from peers, sometimes from our own selves and sometimes from the circumstances and the environment we create for ourselves. In the end, it is all about reaching our excellence and optimal self :)

THank you Mayuresh. I think we all fall into that zone of self pity which makes us wonder why it is only us who are supposed to face all these stupid and unnecessary things in life. But the beauty is in moving beyond that and knowing that it is ok to feel these things it takes quite a character to move beyond that and that really counts :)

Thank you Maniparna. Indeed, complacency really kills all efforts and hence any growth that can result from these actions. It reminds me of a techincal term entropy where given a natural flow of circumstances, everything is headed for a downfall. Considering that, the onus is always upon us to be a little proactive and take control over the circumstances and our responses to them in our lives.

He he indeed Sweety, life sure does have a zany sense of humor and it is startling how much irony is a part of it :D .. But it is pretty neat to know how life constantly wants us to get out of the comfort zone cos there is so much waiting for us :)
