Murphy's Law

why does your mobile phone ring when you are driving? Why does the door-bell ring when you are in the bathroom? why are you urgently required when you are on a leave? Why does your boss calls you when you are sitting with your date? Why does traffic jam occur when you are getting late for the office?
Well, I always wonder that why do these,so called, wrong things happen to us almost daily when we are least expecting them to happen. And it happens to each one of us, for some this has become a part of daily scedule and for others its sporadic. But the fact remains the same that however hard we try to come up with a reason for such occurances we are unable to get any concrete reasoning behind it.

Lately, something simiar happened with me.

this weekend, after some persuation from my friend I aggreed to have a bout with alcohol....things looked pretty normal and I was very excited because after some long gap I was having it, looked like some birthday party during my college days. After excessive drinking we all surrendered to our beds, hoping that the next day will come with some more independence and celebration.
Next day, I was woken up by the irritating ring tone of my cell phone, Some Prakash Patil was on the line. And before I could gather all my energy and concentration to understand what he wanted from me, he almost cried and begged for his child's life. Actually he wanted me to donate some blood in order to save his 13 yrs old son. He got my number from some Blood Bank, and he immediately wanted me to come down to a hospital near by. I immedaitely agreed to do him this favour, and promised him about my presence within haif an hour.
After he hung-up the phone something immediately struck me, that yesterday I had an excessive round of alcohol, which means I can't donate blood for next 72 hrs.....O Shit! what have I done? and I had to gracefully say sorry to Mr Patil, regarding my inability to contribute to his child's cause. He almost cursed me right at the moment for commiting such a henious crime. And I was ashemed of myself.

Later while introspecting things I just got this answer that ... 'something which has to go wrong will go wrong. So there is no point cribbing' .... (although I could console myself, but I am still worried about that child, god-willing Mr Prakash must have someone else to do him this favour and child must have been saved.)

But I have strongly started to believe that there is no point in cribbing about whatever is going wrong in your life, because life is like that!

So if the next time if your phone rings while you are driving just pick it up without cursing the person who called you. Or if you are in bathrom let the person on the door wait for some more time until you are done.

Afterall Murpy's Law also states the same - Something which can go wrong will go wrong!

I don't know, but this happen to be annother of your faint blood donation trials. Remember the last time at college when you refused to Sudeep's(Bhura) blood donation efforts 'cause you consumed alcohol the last night. Either give up the social cause or give up drinking.
Well you are right, things don't turn up right as you thought they would. And you cannot blame anyboby, life is like that!

i think this is a positive omen for you. It is indicating you to give up your bad habit. To get independence is really a wise step but to get this if you r becoming dependent on something then certainly it is not a wise step. If you really want some celebration or independence in ur life then just think how much haapiness you would have got if you had given blood to the kid. ur happiness is not present in liquor but in ur heart. become wise and think.
Now you will say that you are also drinking then why these phatte....then boss my answer is that i am not saying that you donot drink i am saying only donot make it habit...donot become dependent on this....
My law is :- everything in this world is ok if it is within the permissible limit....this limit may varry from person to person for a particular thing like drinking....and think each person knows waht is his permissible limit....

so boss take this omen and do the right thing....needless to say you know waht to do....
