Read something really interesting yesterday… That we should learn three things from the children
How to be happy without a reason
How to be busy without a cause
How to be persistent in our effort for getting something we want (Have you seen a child throwing all the tantrums he is capable of; when he wants a toy of his choice?)

I think I am becoming a fan of Paulo Coelho. After finishing Alchemist now I am starting on The Valkyries. So far it’s been good, although not as good as the alchemist. But let’s wait; I have just covered half only. While writing this piece I just searched the net and found these pieces about Valkyries
This is a term found Scandinavian mythology is preserved in the Old Norse literature .The Valkyries ("Choosers of the Slain") are beautiful young women, mounted upon winged horses and armed with helmets and spears. Odin needs many brave warriors for the oncoming battle of Ragnarok, and the Valkyries scout the battlefields to choose the bravest of those who have been slain. They escort these heroes, called the Einherjar to Valhalla, Odin's hall.

Read the Alchemist a few days back. Well this is one of those books that will leave an everlasting impression on me. Specially the theme; Follow your Destiny
All of us (At least most of us) have dream for his life. I am not talking of aims; aims are easily achievable goals; Aims are like a far flung destination but at least you know the way, you know that if you travel on this path for these many days you will reach there someday;
But Dreams are made of different stuff. They almost look like unachievable, like fantasy. Also you know that you have to reach there but don’t know how. And that’s when one start thinking of dreams as impractical things and starts concentrating on aims instead. But is not that a great loss for us and the world as well.
I think; The Alchemist just shows the way to realize our dreams. To not to lose hope. Anybody who dreams should read this book at least once.

Have taken a shot of tetanus vaccine. actually had a cut three days back and if I got infected then vaccine is of no use after 24 hours of the cut. But found out some interesting facts about tetanus.
1. Unlike the common misconception (At least I had that) rust is no way responsible for tetanus. It’s only that the bacteria residing on the place like that causes the disease. It is not a nice disease to have; so better take the injection as soon as you have a scratch. I was really tense for a few days and still not completely out of that
