todays story

shopping for others- if you thought shopping for yourself is fun think again. This is because i feel that it is shopping for others that is more fun. Let me tell you why. To put it simply when you are shopping for yourself the moment you  spot the thing that you want to buy the excitement of shopping subsides. As a result  excitement and fun involved in  shopping for others is far exceeds the excitement involved in  buying for yourself. This is because when you shop for others you are chased by the anticipation of the expression on the receivers face that. The hope to see the perfect expression on the receivers face keeps you on your toes to search for the perfect gift.

Shoping for others is also an enthralling experience. This is because  the receivers expressions, the comments on the gift and the exciting conversations that follows the gift presentation  keeps you dazed and  gets you smiling.  This is what adds to the thrill of the shopping.

considering that I am not a shopaholic and not even some one who likes to shop you might one consider what I have to say.

tactics of the technology

 If you feel that you are blessed because you were born in the era of technology let me tell you that technology is nothing short of a bully that makes you work according its wimps and fancy. let me tell how...technology, if you subscribe to it makes you its slave whereby only when technology is in its operative form can you get your work done. In other words technology drives you to state of dependency.  This subjugation by technology reminds me of  the colonizer's who viewed the colonized as uncivilized because they did not the speak the language of the colonizers didn't follow the same religion as the colonizers and led a life quite different from the one led by the colonizers. As a result the colonizers took  it upon themselves to educate the colonized and in this process of colonization the colonized became dependent upon the colonizers.

True that I am using technology to write against technology but let me tell you that the colonizer's would not have been able to colonize with out help from the colonized...so thats that...

let me just add that i had just had a very bad experience on account of my use of technology...so this post is temporary. once the problem is fixed i shall delete this post (but might not, if it takes too long to fix the problem).
