Looks to me like people are still having problem understanding what this is all about ! Well, thats ok, the 1st time I heard of this, even I was skeptical as to what is the whole idea behind a blog. And I have to admit I still dont understand it fully. :) So give it some time Najeeb, and things might fall in place. If not, you can still come here and drop some nice comments on what I say( read - what crap I say ;) ). I would be more than glad to see them.
The reason why I chose to have a blog is coz I wanted some space on web, where I can express myself...and get people to share their opinion on it. I dont want it to be like a daily update of whats going on in my life - trust me, its the most boring thing, something that even I wouldnt want to read :).

Everyone has a "threshold" or a limiting point - stressed beyond which, one's mind simply stops "fighting". Even small challenges seem daunting and one gets depressed and looses control easily enough. Some have a very high threshold and thats why they are able to cope better with stress than others. But its nooot something that one is born with. There are ways of improving onself. Most common and most practised way is meditation. I personally feel that the best way to improve one's threshold level is by doing what one feels most happy doing. Like for example, I like to play - most games - and playing is what gives me lots of joy and it definitely improves my state of mind !
I am a bit upset today, coz my parent's visa application was not accepted. I need to boost the state of mind that I am in right now, so what I am going to do is go and play TT ! Now isnt that a nice excuse not to study ;) :)))
