Backbenchers

Apparently this happened with one very humble politician (yes, they do exist, apparently!). Note the two apparentlys in the same sentence!

So said politician was invited to an important function.

Instead of sitting in the first row, which he could have, he and his family went and sat in the last row instead.

The event organizer realized this in some time, and came huffing and puffing to said politician.

“Sir! How can someone as distinguished as yourself, be sitting so far behind, that too on the last row?! Please come with me, and I’ll put you on the first row.”

The down-to-earth politician replied, “Not needed at all, I’m perfectly fine here. At the very least, being in the last row already means you won’t need me to move further behind to make space for more important people!”

Humility + humor is a deadly combo!

Courting food

Went to a food court at a mall this past weekend.

It was so incredibly crowded that it wasn’t funny.

Every single food joint was packed – whether burgers, Mexican, pizza, ice creams, milk shakes, street food – you name it.

But one specific counter was empty as it could be.

Which one, you ask?

“Natural fruit juices”

Sincerely hope we all live to be healthy and well in the coming decades!

2025 ahoy!

With the new year at hand, what is it that we should be wishing for? What should we pray for the most? What should we be focused on working towards?

Perhaps for once, let us not waste spiritual energy and prayers on fleeting desires like $100m, a dream job, or a Paris getaway. Human life is meant for a higher purpose, beyond ordinary wish fulfillment.

Instead, let us manifest what truly matters: good health, mental peace, and unshakable confidence. These timeless treasures remain valuable in any era or place.

And with these treasures, we can not just navigate life’s challenges and triumph gracefully but also achieve whatever mundane pleasures we may seek.

Let’s use 2025 to rise above the superficial and focus on what truly matters.
