London Part-I

I have never been to London although I have crossed it many times seeing it from the plane. I remember that I was once travelling to KL and saw BK from the plane. I had never been to BK then and the city seemed fascinating from the top. I only prayed to God to help me see the city once. I have been there a couple of time after that.


London is a different ball game all together. I will get to see the city in depth as I am staying there and travelling for almost a week. Everytime I visit different countries, my mind opens and I become more learned. (or so I think). So, I am really looking forward to open my mind and feel associated with the place which I have only seen through technology or from the air..This Blog is me trying to jot down what I am feeling right now..I will complete is once I am back from the country..

Lane Driving: Lessons

There are things which we can all learn from lane driving in Delhi. The biggest learning is that there are no lanes. People can turn left or right with the least amount of care and ignorning that he might hit your new car..Though I would not turn left or right without checking the mirrors but I might hit your new car because of sheer jealously!..


Secondly, there are situations when you are following a car at a great speed and so you expect that the speed would continue. If you want to overtake the guy, you have to linger on and then suddenly an opening opens where you can zip pass the guy who was ahead of you..(in his new car ofcourse with all the polyethene sheets still clinging on to the seats even after two months of purchase.,)...sometimes I have noticed that the way a person drives the car shows why he is driving such a car..lously people drive lously cars in the same segment..even when they have choices coz they are used to make lousy decisions.


So, If I take this above scenario and place it on an altar of philosphy..I would reach the logical conclusion that your speed lies priarily on the guy u r following..you have to choose the right leader..or be a decent follower of someone who deserves to be followed. Additionally, if you want to surpass the asshole in front of you and you dont have the space, who will have to linger on. With the traffice moving in the system, space would come. Just wait..


And yes, we are to wear speed belts..in all phases of life..protection comes first..better safe then sorry..
