"A thief is a thief, whether he steals a cucumber or a diamond .”

Theft is a big profession in the world. From small level servants to big level people, can work under this profession. They earn a lot of tax-free money. I met lots of thieves in a different stages of my life. To take any object without the knowledge of the owner of the object is a theft. Every thief has his own reasons to do a theft.   I  was a child when I met a thief who used to take away children. That day, I was with my Aunt. We went to the dentist for some dental work. After that, we went to a medical shop. As I remember, I was just standing outside of the shop. My aunt was in the shop. A woman having one small child in hand came to me. She said “Come, I will give you chocolate” and she held my hand and started pulling me with her. I was so dumb that I had started walking with her silently. My aunt came back from the shop and to her surprise, I was not there on road. When she saw both sides of the road, she noticed that I was going with a lady with a child in

Truth is stranger than fiction.

My boss, Anant, was of mid-thirty. He was a good guy and a jolly person. We were three in the office.  Myself Karan, working as a trainee engineer. And an assistant named Vaibhav. Whatever work was there, we used to distribute and do the work. But many times, we used to go to customer or vendor sites; there would be nobody in the office. So, Anant decided to have a receptionist for the office. He explained to us, “She will handle office documents and call management.” He told me to give an advertisement in a local newspaper in Pune. I and Vaibhav immediately completed the job. Boys will be boys. Both of us were very happy with the idea that one girl would be there with us for the next few days in the office.  Finally, the day of interviews came and one by one girls started entering for interviews. Anant had selected few girls for the interview. Vaibhav and I, both were so excited that we told Anant that there is no appointment with any customer as well as vendor. We will be

Everybody is a God soul

Every life on this earth is having its own journey. Everybody is very indistinct and independent in this universe. Everybody is a God soul in its purest form. We need to understand ourselves. I learned this theorem of Jainism in my life many times.  When I look back in 2004_05, I had started my job in a very small company. The pay scale was very less. I used to manage somehow rent and food. Most of the fresher start career with this condition only. How come I would be an exception?  It was the last day of the month. I used to get a salary on the 1st, of every month. Somehow that day I had only 10 rupees in my pocket. In this, I was required to manage a full day. So I decided to do fasting. I avoided tea, breakfast, and lunch as well. After company hours, I came back into the room. In my room, we used to live with two people. My roommate was from a very poor family. We normally used to have food in a hotel and then come to the room. We used to come to the room very late only

Humanity Pays Off

It was just another day. After a very hectic workload in the company, I was very much tired. At that time there were mobiles but not with common people. The Internet had started its influence and was capturing human beings like the British had captured India in history. Being an engineer, now I think you waste half of your youth life just thinking of job search, job change over, and its frustration. Unknowingly I started my journey on the same path.  Having tired though, I went to café… no..no not café coffee day. I went to an internet cafe to search and apply for jobs. This had become my daily routine to go to a cyber café and search for a job.  One fortunate day, I got a call for an interview. It was in some area in Pimpri Chinchwad. I was needed to go by city bus. As usual, I lied to my boss and got leave for health reasons. I went for the interview and it was good. But they told me that they will inform me results in one or two days. I was hopeful. With lots of thoughts in
