Watch your glasses

People say the world turns around when you fall in love.
Mine did too, but it wasn't because of love, it was because of the glasses that I had apparently lost.

If you've been wearing glasses for a couple of years now, you might relate to the consequences of having lost them - blurred vision, unfocused work, irritated mood all come along with it.

I feel the best time, if any, to lose your glasses is at night - you can do away with blurred dreams.

However, after some effort, it's a joy to be able to find your glasses back, especially if you've searched the most logical places where you could lose them and finally happened to find them at the stupidest place in the world.

No - it wasn't my forehead.
It was among a heap of clothes in my closet!

You don't realize the value of something until it is lost and found.

I think they wanted me to first engage myself in reading (via comic books) and get habituated to it. Once I was used to reading, I automatically happened to read the educational (Panchatantra and Aesop fables) as well without them instructing. I think their strategy worked for me. :P Thanks!

Law 9 from the book The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene

While reading the book 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene (an interesting read - highly recommended), I came across an interesting story that stated observance of Law 9. In 1502, Florence, Italy lay a magnificent block of stone. It was, however, mutilated by an unskilled sculptor when a hole was bored through it where there should have been the figure's legs.  Soderini, Florence's mayor, contacted Leonardo Da Vinci and many art masters to fix the figure. But his efforts were in vain since all of them believed the figure had been ruined - except Michelangelo. Michelangelo, on examination of the stone, suggested adapting the figure's pose to the way the stone had been mutilated. However, Soderini argued that this would be a waste of time and money but agreed to let Michelangelo work on it. Weeks later, while Michelangelo was putting final touches on the statue, Soderini began examining it. While he thought the statue looked magnificent, he judged that the no
