We planned skiing in Isaberg, Sweden a place 250 km far from Copenhagen. It was chosen because it was the only possible place for one day skiing trip. We started by bus at 6 in the morning with 5 more people- including a German guy, Chinese girl and a Danish girl. It was quite cold at that time but our enthusiasm was at full swing. I was a little scared too, as it could be quite dangerous sometime if you fall while skiing. People in Europe do it from very early age so they learn by the time they grow up like us J
Any ways, we reached there by 10 and our class was supposed to be started at 11. We already paid for 1 hrs instruction class which I think was necessary before going to the battle field. It was fun to learn the easy basic steps on how to move forward at slope and how to break. I learnt it quickly and started thinking that-it’s not a big deal now. Well, we will talk about it later J
So finally we were ready for it. We chose to ski on the easiest slope there and there was a lift to take us up whole day, again and again. Now the real story of falling started. I fell in the first attempt as I speeded up a little bit. My technique of breaking myself was not working effectively at higher speeds. Hence, the only way to stop myself was to ‘fall’. Another problem was that now the slope was not plain and my skiing strips were going in one direction and my upper body in another, making me fall every time. You can imagine the condition of my mind which was not able to tell my body what to do with 2 meter long ski strips which allows your feet to move just in one way-either forward or backward. Slowly I learnt to lift up my legs one by one to readjust the direction of ski strip. It was better now. Still my body was not completely with my mind who was confused what to do. It is difficult to fall on your back or chest when you wear 2 mt long skis. So all you can do is to fall on your side when u can’t do anything else and that’s what I started doing every time I was in trouble. This also becomes difficult with higher speeds to adjust your body so that u can at least fall comfortably. I was really scared now if I break one of the legs. Fortunately I did not.
Finally I was tired of falling like this and stopped this finally. I think it was really learning experience and I remember it as fun-filled too. We started back by 4 evening and reached Copenhagen by 8. A tiring but fun-filled day.

1.Life is like a goldmine game. You try to get what you focus on, with the experience u become accurate in getting what u focus on . But if you focus on small and less valuable things, you will only get them , If you focus on more valuable things, u will get them but they will take ur more effort and time, so u need to have patience to get them but u need to learn what to focus on so that you can get more value in the given time . in life also , you do not have unlimited time , the only way to learn this is to take interest in the life and experiences it.
2. When we become a important member of society, we feel proud of ourself because ppl give us respect. But which society? It can mean differently for different people. For me, there is society of human beings. I do not have a society of hindu or muslim, or Danish . I am the member of society of those who believe in and respect the human values in the man kind. If I can gain respect in this group of ppl, it is called importance in society. So I have to be a good member of my own chosen group. I can never be favourite to every one in the world, but I have to decide carefully which group of people I want to become important for.
3. Now the honeymoon period of ur life is over . You have been living it for last 25 years. Now you will have to come to the battle field of life…you have to become tough gradually. Many times you will have to face push from those who are powerful…but don’t lose ur temper and courage. Always focus on good things coming in you way….you are starting the journey as a good human being and you have to end it in the same form. There is no hurry of winning a race but you have to go thinking what you need and want from life. Some times you may have to change your way but don’t fear losing good ppl because you will find them in every way of life. You are going to live the whole life in your mind. Contolling ur mind will give you the control of your life. Always keep helping those who need you …always keep spreading happiness among those who are near to you…this way you will forget ur pains and the path will become joyous..you will have to face the thorns as well…face them with courage. Don’t try to avoid them which may lead you to a wrong path and you become aimless.
4. There are tools which needs be used to overcome the challenges of life. We all earn them and lose them in the journey, from the parents, friends, circumstances and our attitude plays an important part to learn to use them. With the repeated practice, we start carry them along with our mindset. In some circumstances we are unable to use any tool. Then we take them from our beloved ones when we ask for help. Also, we give our tools to them sometime when they need. So if we have variety of tools in our camp, it becomes easier to tackle problems. And this is why we should respect the differences among the camp. So marry a girl with different attitude…you can learn a lot and she can from you as well. AND DO NOT HESITATE TO USE THE TOOLS YOU HAVE....
5. Remember one thing, if others do not do their duty which harms you , don’t care for it….but when it is your turn, always perform your duties…this will make you learn ur responsibilities which u have to bear in furure for u and ur beloved ones. Dutifulness comes with the pain…but it gives u relaxation later.
6. If you think you are right, then have passion about it.

9. The work done with honesty and truthfulness is the best, it brings happiness and satisfaction even if desired result is not achieved.
