Rahul Dravid's take on Patience

My wife and I have built a new home with a lovely garden which houses  lovely bamboo trees. I got reading on the Chinese bamboo and learned  that the tree takes 5 years, 3 months to grow to its whole height of 80  feet. Yet, for the first 5 years, you only see a tiny green shoot, but  in the next 90 days, it grows into a full-fledged tree. But in those  first 60 months, it is growing its strong network of roots underground,  to support the tree.  In an era of instant gratification, we settle for  shorter trees, but remember patience has its reward. These are your  years of growing that strong network of roots but be sure when you  finally achieve your success, people will call it “overnight success”.  If only they knew of the Chinese bamboo!

Let's pretend this never happened

This book came as a new refreshing take on book reading. It has some satirical, witty and at times philosophical take on strange childhood of Jenny Lawson. After finishing the book now I can look back at the cover of the book and now I can have a hearty laugh. Some of the most inspiring portions of the book I liked are -

"I can finally see that all the terrible parts of my life, the embarrassing parts, the incidents I wanted to pretend never happened, and the things that make me “weird” and “different,” were actually the most important parts of my life. They were the parts that made me ME.”

“Because you are defined not by life’s imperfect moments, but by your reaction to them. And because there is joy in embracing – rather than running from – the utter absurdity of life.”

“I see us becoming comfortable with our own brand of dysfunctional functionality, our unique way of measuring success.”

“I wish her to have love and enough heartbreak to appreciate it.”
