Curious Case of The Limitless Me

“Curiosity is the very basis of education and if you tell me that curiosity killed the cat, I can only say that the cat died nobly.”

I cannot agree more with this quote. Never lose a holy curiosity said the great man once and I have tried my best to follow his advice. I have always been a curious person and I can confirm that this is the only virtue that has stayed with me throughout my quarter century of life. I was so curious to see how the world looks like that I poped out 8 days before my mom and her doctors expected me to. I had a very curious childhood as well. Whether it’s eating ants or poking my fingers into electric switches I just about did everything to see what happens if I do a certain thing.

In fact this “What if” has stuck with me through out my academic and professional career. But here’s the catch, I can without doubt give credit for all the little success that I have had in my life to this curiosity of mine. I have realized that a curious person has more practical information than may be an academic genius. When you are curious you have lot’s of interesting things to do. I got into the field of HR because of this curious nature, I have always been curious to know what’s happening in other people’s life, definitely not to the extent of the vamps in K tele-serials, but yes, it’s interesting to know how people are living their life. So the obvious way to do that was either to become a detective ( which is not a very stable options ) or get into recruitments :) and ask people everything about their life.

So my advice to everyone, get curious about everything in life , remember, sometimes questions are more important than answers.

By the way do you know what a woman’s curiosity is ? I am curious to know :)

FAITH OR FEAR ?

I am on a spiritual high right now.
No, I have not renounced any of the worldly goods. I just came back from a religious trip to one of the most revered religious places. What I saw there is, what has led to this spiritual psychological state.
It was a long weekend, thanks to the government recognizing that laborers also need a day off and generously making May 1, Labour Day, a compulsory holiday. So along with a few friends I decided to wash my sins, or at least, making an attempt to clear some of them. So we reached Shirdi and what I saw there is what has led to this question. There were people, millions of them, it was as if the whole world had decided to seek blessings on the same day. We inquired a little and were told that there were at least a few lakh people there that day.
Which makes me think, what makes people to throng religious places these days. Is it the Faith in God or the Faith that doing this will lead to something good in their life or is it just Fear, fear that if they don’t do it something bad will happen.
Not sure the reason behind my trip, I would like believe it was faith, but then I am not too sure about it also.
Looking for an answer to this question? Is it Faith or Fear
