A different start for the day...

It was a good start for the day today, Got up early, dressed up and headed to the temple,after darshan got some prasadam too :), then headed to kaya toast, the coffee shop, sipped a hot cup of coffee and then from there headed to market, bought some fresh vegges and back home.

With a change like this and a chat with few ppl known or unknown is really refreshing.

So try to do something different everyday, else life will get boring...

Recession Effect - "Ophra Winfrey Show"

I guess by now each and everyone on planet would have felt the recession heat some way or the other. Either job loss/salary cut/cut on vacations blah blah blah...

So when I think, why did this recession happen? I feel,the discipline with respect to money was going hay ware,everyones was on a spending spree...some are making millions without a limit,people were going way beyond reality.affordability of luxuries were more easier, credit seemed a more friendly one than a foe; mortgages,loans,credit debts etc etc .Probably the higher force felt the need to control the wall street guys for this and then henceforth the recession.

Good side of recession is that, it has given us a good introspection of ourselves.

It has made us realize what we need and what we don't.
Its definitely made an impact on shopping wrt groceries , dresses and gadgets.
literally its given the realization to people with respect to life, infact Its has made people being more humble to there demands and desires.


I have become a regular watcher of Ophra Winfrey show since recession.

Especially Ophra Winfrey : Recession Rescue with Suze Orman.

Recession rescue episodes have given a picture of different situation and different crisis people are facing, the different luxuries that they wanted and afforded and the same that's become a life strangler for them now.

Some of Suze's advice to people to escape from strangulation, even though it meant to sell their luxuries that once meant a priceless possession to them.

Knowing or unknowing, I have started to follow many of the rescue plans for survival mentioned on the show.

Even though there no need for me to be so stringent on finances, these survival tips and advices has been awaking, made me realize the need's and don't needs of a daily life.


We know recession is a cycle, its come now and will be gone in a few months, but lets not forget the lessons learnt.
