The art of living

Live this day as if it will be your last. Remember that you will only find tomorrow on the calendars of fools. Forget yesterday’s defeats and ignore the problems of tomorrow. This is it. Doomsday. All you have. Make it the best day of your year. The saddest words you can ever utter are, If I had my life to live over again. Take the baton, now. Run with it! This is your day! Beginning today, treat everyone you meet, friend or foe, loved one or stranger, as if they were going to be dead at midnight. Extend to each person, no matter how trivial the contact, all the care and kindness and understanding and love that you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.

On one such meet-and-greet occasion, one nine-year old girl asked me if I had got the “poison removed from the dog’s teeth”! I’ve never heard anything more bizarre and I’m sure the girl must have learnt this from her parents or adults around her! Sheesh

All Creatures Great and Small: Book review

James Herriot was a Vet who wrote some fine books about his experiences dealing with animals. Many people assume that such books do not constitute serious literature. They are wrong. To be able to delve into the mind on an animal and weave entire stories is not easy at all. I myself occasionally fail to understand the peculiar behaviour of my colleague VM, but on the whole, he seems tolerable and
non-interfering, if slightly dull. I amuse myself by manipulating him every now and then and have a few laughs. But I digress.
