A philosophy of life

A nice philosophy of life taken from the fireftp inventor's website.

“When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits,
I dreamed of changing the world.
As I grew older and wiser I discovered the world would not change -
So I shortened my sights somewhat and decided to change only my country,
But it too seemed immovable.

As I grew into my twilight years,
In one last desperate attempt,
I settled for changing only my family,
Those closest to me,
But alas, they would have none of it.

And now I realize as I lie on my deathbed,
If I had only changed myself first,
Then by example I might have changed my family,
From their inspiration and encouragement
I would then have been able to better my country,
And who knows, I might have even changed the world.”

From the tombstone of an Anglican bishop in Westminster Abbey

Why are we here?

The thought to find the reason of our existence, the curiosity to find the secret of us being placed on this world.

Its been a question running on my mind all the time and the answer is still unknown. The reason I'm writing about it is because I just read blog on one of my online friends blog. (link: Rohan Ranade: Nobody cares including me).

Well when I was designing my first website I wanted to write something about myself and I started writing and end up with one line saying "The mystery behind we all human-beings staying here on earth with the company of all living beings like trees and animals." I was amazed with the thought: its really such a curious thing why are we here ?? And whats the purpose of us being present on this earth which a a tiny part on this endless Universe.
