Anant Nagar…

No one ever likes to do this but  the ones who dislike it the most; are usually the ones who usually end up doing it!

Of course this can be an example of so many things but I am telling only of the task of waiting!

No one likes to wait! If you need a boon from your personal Genie then you might as well ask him or her; “I do not want to wait or made to wait to get what I want!” That one boon would actually solve most of the problems of your life!

Unfortunately it is often see that those who do not like to wait, sometimes make others wait! People like me who hate waiting for anything with so much anxiety and Type A stuff going on, try to never make anyone wait!

Then again one of the worst thing you or anyone can do is ‘break the line!’. No one likes to stand in the line for your ‘turn’ but that is what separates us from the herd of animals who jump at the food dropped on the ground!

If everyone follows the line, then the wait is less; there gain is as expected and there is a fairness in the dealing! This is not only in an office, but also in traffic and any other walk of life! If you are in a queue, respect the queue! There is no doubt that if you come in a line then the line will take care of you.

Of course do not think of any Murphy’s law here since then you will feel down! I still remember many of the laws of line by Murphy! Like the one where the line in which you are standing would always seem to move more slow than the other line! Or the fact that your line would always feel longer than any other line! Or how if you stand in any place for some time, it will very soon become a line!

Which is maybe why many of the moral stories are filled with things like Patience and ‘take your time’! We have to curb our urge to break the line so that we get the stuff in time!

Like the line for Padma is of course long! But deserving people like Ananth Nag will get it; just a matter of time! Hearty congratulations on the well deserved award!

Now get in line to sleep!

Shubh ratri!
