True maniparna. You said it, we have to play around and we have to find the best fit for us. There is no escaping the irony !!

It’s a circle and once we are in…we have to play around, anything we can gather during the process, helps us to continue the journey in a better way… :-)

Thank you Hargun, I loved the quote, it kinda left like a complete irony to me. Or like Shamsud said, more of an oxymoron, an extremely paradoxical one. It took a couple of rereads to understand the implications and there we go a post is on it :). I am glad to know that you liked the train of thoughts, loved hearing your views on the same. It would be great to see more of you on the discussion front here, looking forward to more such mature discussions :)

To err is human but learning from it and trying not to repeat that is in our hands.
If we never commit mistakes, won’t life become dull and drab? moreover, applying the wisdom gained by learning from mistakes indeed adds that flavor to life which makes it all more interesting! It gives us those small moments of joy ;) So I think both should go hand in hand.
Also, I totally agree with Somali about being vicarious-that certainly helps :)
It was a indeed a great post. keep it up!

He he, thats the perfect word Shamsud :). Oxymoron indeed!

Thank you Somali :). Indeed, sometimes we don’t need to go through the physical experience. Just the vicarious one would do :). After all, we all have very limited time and it sure is a very expensive resource.

In this context, the thumb rule that can apply to all is – Make a few mistakes, and learn more from other’s mistakes.:-)
