I once took an International Business class and the Professor, in the first session, duly remarked, "I don't know of a culture where humility isn't valued." So true, right? :)<br /><br />Anu - thank you for your super kind words. As an aside, my next write-up is on Iruvar. It would be marvelous if you were to do one of your essays as well.<br /><br />Lakshmy Ramakrishnan ma'am - I am truly honored and privileged to see your comment. <i>Ammani </i> refuses to leave my subconscious :) I had watched it on Herotalkies. A couple of my online friends based in India are interested in watching it. Could you let me know how they could possibly see it? Will it be out on DVD sometime soon?<br /><br />Ravishanker - you wrote, "the tendency to tune out people who irritate you." I have been guilty of that too. I find myself frustratingly tongue tied on occasion. But I also feel, like you did, that we're sometimes fortunate to have an internal censorship system! Of course, to separate out the delivery from the content (in the case of your apartment person) requires tremendous awareness, which is some sort of a North Star for me :)<br /><br />Nandu - thank you, ma! 2017-la "nalla irupom nalla irupom elaarum nalla irupom" :)Ram Muralihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15932557588480669430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332491328939495514.post-32925476370606032982017-01-05T10:07:52.655-08:002017-01-05T10:07:52.655-08:00Excellent write up for the start of a new year whe...Excellent write up for the start of a new year when we are reflecting on how to have a better 2017.

I think she put it very well "I found myself nodding at several places" And I could relate to many instances and some of my own glaring faults - i.e the tendency to tune out people who you irritate you. I did this to one person in my apartment and didnt listen to his suggestions and ultimately I found he was right (though I still feel like giving him a kick in the backsoyd). Probably my admitting this allows me to be vain about my humility ? :) :) <br /><br /><br />I thought the article had reached a crescendo by the second last line of Para 2, meaning that was the epicentre of what you were saying, but thats when you got your second wind.<br /><br />This was a well disguised leg cutter after the last two cinema pieces. Splendid show Ram !<br />Zolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09347849134451149946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332491328939495514.post-55233939062275519972017-01-05T08:59:02.019-08:002017-01-05T08:59:02.019-08:00Beautiful reflection of thoughts....Beautiful reflection of thoughts....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14257302273800529327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332491328939495514.post-56835866917993912872017-01-05T04:43:55.650-08:002017-01-05T04:43:55.650-08:00I found myself nodding in agreement in several pla...I found myself nodding in agreement in several places, Ram. It's so true that success comes at a cost (doesn't everything?. It's also true that talent alone is not enough; hard work and patience are both virtues to be followed - diligently. And quite apart from all that, there's that element of luck. You can be talented, and work very hard and be very patient, and you might still not achieve what you set out to do. I think that's when many of us average Joes and Janes become frustrated. <br /><br />I think this was one of your best essays. Quite enjoyed reading it.
