This one is on AR Rehman's oscar feat.
Recently I had read an article which went as below :
Apparently it was AR Rehman's dream to win an oscar. Infact 3 years back, he happened to be at the Oscars, and he got few pictures of his clicked with the Oscars statuette (this at the time when he had not even got nominated for the oscars). Few would have doubted Rehman's capability to win one eventually. But what this small act of Rehman showed is that it is good to dream, good to have a child like exuberance/enthusiasm and sometimes even genius people behave like kids.
There are people who laugh at others dreams, criticize them and doubt them, but all I would say is that one should in all earnest go all out to achieve them, and at times behaving like kids is not bad :)
PS: Who would have imagined that his dreams would come true so quickly.

Time Spend in a Relationship
I recently came across someone's orkut profile and it mentioned that one shouldnt judge a relationship by the amount of time spend in a relationship.
For a long while I believed otherwise, that friendships depend on the extent of time I have known someone for.
For eg, I couldnt trust someone if I had known him/her only for a while, i would be like, i barely know her , how can I trust her. Time was a big parameter for me. But life's experiences has shown me to believe otherwise.
Many a times I have met few people, maybe for a shortwhile, but the connection I make is a lot more deeper than what I can ever have with people whom I spend a lot of my waking hours. Quite a few of my close friends are those with whom my personal /interaction in the real world have been not for more than few months, but they are my closest of friends.
Recently, a friend of mine, handed me some money to invest on his behalf, it was no doubt a small amount, but no questions asked, he just wanted me to invest on his behalf in my name. I was amazed, and infact even asked him, that how can yu trust me, we may never meet again, he simply said, he trusted me, this is his investment and if at all I dont return the money, it will be an experience for him.
All said n done, for some aspects, the time spent is a criteria, coz only when yu go through the highs/lows in a friendship do you know its depth. Some relationships wither away if you are out of touch for a while, however some stand the test of time, and are evergreen inspite of having fights/arguments/days/years of not being in touch.
