At your own pace

As a typical person who travels by local train in mumbai to work daily, people would be knowing the frentic pace at which the things move on stations and in train. At the epicentre is the dadar station which is the heart of local trains in mumbai which acts as crossover between western and central mumbai. It attracts about a million people daily including the people travelling in long distance trains. People have no time to halt as they are busy looking to catch another train. Stopping and waiting for 5 minutes looks like an hour with things happening in fast forward. Any outsider from any other part of the world would be awestruck by the sheer pace of the city. And the trains give the perfect example of pace  where people are fighting for every inch of space in local trains to go to their respective destination. Once you start the journey you just want to get off to your station quickly as possible during the peak hours as for once you may lose your patience to stay in the train the whole duration. While this may seem fine, while you catch up with the pace of city the pace catches you in a fast moving battle. While you constantly battle with the pace of city you lose the patience to look the nature and it's beauty, forget about living in the present and enjoying the current moment. In this digital world it is even more prominent. Dont forget enjoying the sunrise, birds chirping, peaceful time within the house doing nothing and looking at the nature's beautiful flora and fauna, leisurely moments. You need to find your own pace, there are lot of times when we find ourselves running at fast pace and when we look back we just might have said was it needed? Keep yourelves motivated but also have a balance of both the worlds. It is imperative to find your own pace and the sooner you find your pace, the longer you go. The best of distance runners find the comfort zone and then when needed push the pace, when required and not burn out themselves.


To sum it up find yourself and get the best of your life. Be happy, live happy.

FDI in Retail: Boon or Bane

As Indian Parliament has passed its verdict for FDI in Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha, the Indian people are left amazed at how political parties that were opposing FDI have either not voted or have voted for the government. The popular opinion among the Indian public was against the FDI as government could not solve doubts relating to FDI of common people. There are also doubts that this will lead to foreign control of our economy. The government has defended its move by stating that it will help India as there will be investment from foreign retail chains. But, if that is the case then why has there been no real attempt to bring back black money, since they also have names of people that have their money stashed outside India.
