I don't depress you, reality does.

Prejudices.

I am a person of too many prejudices for my own peril. One prejudice I have is about refined aspects of world. Say a painter, a director,an author is very well known. I approach their work with suspicion.
One such fellow is Maniratnam, a famous film director in South India. I consider his works to be over rated, too polished, devoid of substance.
I was watching one of his films on TV today. It turned out to be better than I expected. It's about 3 young men finding their destinies in life after an incident involving all 3.
I wish, I were so sure about what I want in life. Latest trend is I want to be serious about charity. Yesterday, when I was in delhi, I saw kids not more than 6/7 yrs begging on streets. It's not a new sight in India. Probably, I am becoming more sensitive to such visuals. I wish, it doesn't stop here.
Ideal situation will be , I will be working, making money, spending some money on my sons, (My wife is rich, so need not spend on her ;)) , make them competent to live in this world, and spend rest of energies and resources to make lives of other people better. Huh, does that sound grand. Hopefully, it's practical.
