Sometimes when we travel, we do get into the wrong bus by mistake. And when we realize, we get down immediately....We do not wait for the bus to reach its final destination, to get down...nor do we force the driver to drive to the place where we were supposed to go...nor do we change our place of visit just because we got into this bus. It is funny if someone tells you to change your place of visit. It is cruel if someone orders you to force the driver to go to your place of interest and it is stupid to wait for the final destination, to get down.
And it is pathetic if someone without understanding what has happened keeps telling to you..."Sab Sahi tho hai...Sab Sahi tho hai!!"I am not able to understand these people who tell you "hey, dont get down, this is a nice bus..it runs smoothly....", without even understanding what your problem is....!!!
To all such people I only request, "please trust me, I know what I am doing.."!!

The law of garbage truck
I have just copied and pasted a forwarded message! Although it is not original., I thought today is the right time to put it in my blog.
Here read it..
The law of garbage truck!
How often do you let other people's nonsense change your mood ???? Do you let a bad driver, rude waiter, curt boss, or an insensitive employee ruin your day? However, the mark of a successful person is how quickly one can get back their focus on what's important.
David J. Pollay explains his story in this way....
Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson. I learned it in the back of a New York City taxi cab. Here's what happened. I hopped in a taxi, and we took off for Grand Central Station. We were driving in the right lane when, all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his breaks, skidded, and missed the other car's back end by just inches!
The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, whipped his head around and he started yelling bad words at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean...he was friendly. So, I said, "Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!"
And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call, "The Law of the
Garbage Truck."
"?Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage,full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it. And if you let them,they'll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump on you, don't take it personally. You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. You'll be happy you did."
I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over
me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people: at work, at home, on the streets? It was that day I said, "I'm not going to do it anymore."
Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. Love the people
who treat you right. Forget about the ones who don't. Believe that
everything happens for a reason. Never let the garbage truck run over."
Reading this did help me realize, I should not take garbage!
