Confusion.... a very worthy gift.

I do feel that "confusion" is one of the best emotions GOD has given us. Confused??? read on....
The reason why some people would actually read through this post is the same reason why I think confusion is a gift.

How many times in life were you confused and still successfully managed to do nothing about it???
Walt Disney once said “We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”

Why would a man be curious to know anything if he was perfectly clear about it? Curiosity is the flower that stems from the bud of Confusion! (Whoa.... that would make a good quotation... I am still confused how I managed to write that one!)
Confusion drives us.... we have an inbuilt mental mechanism which forces us to strive towards clearing confusion.
If Newton wasn't confused why the apple fell down instead of going up, or moving sideways ( I' the thought of an apple "falling sideways" lol ), he would've never discovered gravity.

A lot of people blame confusion for their mistakes. I hear from a lot of my friends who say "I was confused, and answered it wrong in the last moment". I think that they were not prepared enough for the test. They wouldn't be confused about a question they knew well.
(I bet you are never confused what your name is? lol)
The point I am trying to make here is that we should make use of confusion... ( i am really confused what i wanted to say!!!) We should let our instincts take over when we are confused and make efforts to clear it up. For when people work with a purpose, they unexpectedly achieve greatness.
When I started writing this post, I was confused as to why I am doing this instead of studying for my exam next month... I thought about it and came out with the answer "this was more interesting to me than what I was reading tonight(or was supposed to be reading :-P). "
And a lot of people are "confused" about choices.... One of my friends recently told me he was confused whether he should opt for internal medicine or general surgery for his post graduation. I said "Go with either one... If you like it in future, you will be happy that your confusion is cleared... If you don't like what you have chosen, you can always blame it on confusion."
I am really confused about a lot of things right now... like whether I should start studying and get a PG, or continue doing jobs, which have taught me a lot, and enjoy life right now.
I am also confused about my feelings for a girl... "Is it love, or just another infatuation I fail to recognise because of having a poor attention span ( I am ADHD, and I am loving it!!)
I will never finish this post if I start with that list. So I think i now understand why
Michael J. Gelb said: "Confusion is the welcome mat at the door of creativity."

If you are even a little bit Confused about what I tried to convey in this post.... I will consider that I have made my point.

Vishvadaabhiraama vinura Vema



నీతి చెప్పినవాడి నోరు నొక్కేయ బడును,

నీతి లేని ఊర కుక్కల పనుల చేత ,
కుక్క లోని నీతి, రాజకీయాలలో లేదయ,
విశ్వదాభిరామ వినురవేమ .

చరిత్ర సృష్టించిన రామా రావు శ్రమ వృథా ఆయెను,
మహానుభావుల పరువు మట్టి లో కలిసెను,
తెలంగాణా పేరిట తెగులు పుట్టించెను రాజకీయం,
విశ్వదాభిరామ వినురవేమ.



I wrote the above lines in memory of the statues desecrated on tank bund by "anti-social elements".
It is really a shame that Hyderabad, once the city of dreams has been turned into a place where distasteful experiences have become a routine.
I really don't know if it is really the people of Hyderabad that are blinded by the lies of politicians.... or it is goons paid by politicians who have done these shameful acts.
how will such activities help in achieving telangana?
The telangana JAC is losing all its support from the people of hyderabad. because it is the common people who suffer when the JAC declares bandhs. Hyderabadi People now first think whether their daily life will be hampered by the agitations or not, whether buses will ply in city or not, whether they can go to work on time? whether their children can safely go to school and come back? ....and I AM NOT EXAGGERATING!!!
The parents whose children are studying in osmania university have sleepless nights worrying about their children.
Will there be any respite from this headache???
Will the Govt. do something to aid the common man?
