A quote from LiveMint Vivek Kaul
As and when this happens, I will be simply happy because there will be fewer entitled individuals going around, giving us gyan on LinkedIn in bad English about everything that happens around us. With due apologies to the great Sahir Ludhianvi: “Wo subah kabhi to aayegi (That morning will come some day!).”
Superbowl - Patrick Mahomes is good; comes across as a very humble person too - nice role model.
Another person I have always liked Pujara - an old school test batsman. Glad he will get to 100 tests for India. An amazing feat for a guy who had to justify his place every match. He has some amazing accomplishments in Australia (and elsewhere too!) - nice piece by Ashwin his team mate here. Well done Mirugam :P
One of those notes prepared by our older one at school. His dream "to be nicer to his family". To say it brought us to tears is an understatement. We are fortunate to have him - even with all our struggles.
Hmmm.. it can creep into your person. May be this is what makes me take criticism so seriously. May be I should lighten up and continue. If this is what I can implement because of what happened in the meeting, it may be is worth the struggle and mental anguish.
I need to remind myself why I do what I do. The joy is in the work not what people think about it. I hope I can remember this always.
Well, time has come on a great player. Roger Federer retires with 20 grand slam trophies - an unimaginable number. Yet, he is third on the list. That's the problem with pushing frontiers, once you show it can be done, others will do it better. Good on them.
As a Federer fanatic fan, I would like to thank him for the wonderful memories. I still remember the night out for his 5th Wimbledon final - he won that. After 2009 or so my life got in the way but until then I think I watched all his grand slam finals. I could not get myself to watch his recent games because he lost a step and was not playing at his best. I could not watch the genius struggle on a mortal plane. That's a testament to the standards he set himself!
Hope he has a great retired life! You and your family deserve it! Thanks for the single handed backhand and the several magical memories.
PS: Federer was also helpful in bringing me closer to my wife - I will owe him forever for that. I have an admission to make - I was ok with Federer losing the 2008 Wimbledon Final provided I got an Yes. Usually, I pleaded for his victory! Sorry Fed!
