Gadget filled Zindagi(Life)

Technology is growing exponentially and so has the numbers of gadgets. I recently went to my mom's place and the first thing she did was check my bags. So I had this heavy backpack, which she calls as 'Pandora's Box'. List of items that I had with reasons (Mom's always demand a reason ;)) - Laptop - For official work - Tab - To do some work on the run and to watch movies - Kindle - To read Books - Andriod mobile - Of course to take calls - Power Bank - To Charge mobile on the run - Pen Drive - If I need to take any backup There were two more things which made her laugh  - Good Old Nokia Handset (Battery doesn't drain down easily)  - A notepad (I mean paperback, in case I need to write something)                                                                                                       Along with the said things came their respective cables(which my mom calls as Spider web).

The girl and the ad are famous yet again(in a good way)! There are m

Que sera sera

One of my favorite Spanish Quotes 'Que Sera Sera' means 'what will be, will be'. This quote is so true. I may sound a bit philosophical but wanted to write this for quite some time now. There is a lot being said about being positive, dreaming and attracting what one wants,about not being broken on not getting what one wants. So many books are being sold on such topics and no doubts they make sense. Out of experience, I have realized that the base behind every advice is that what has to happen, will happen.
