It is loneliness that leads to thoughts, thoughts to curiosity, and curiosity to discovery and realisation.

In China, they say it is far better to travel a thousand miles than read 10,000 books. I believe them.
You could say it's an accident that I was ideally suited for the work I am doing. It's the feeling of a bowstring being pulled back for 24 years and suddenly being let go. I've always been attracted to ideas that were about revolt against authority. I like ideas about the breaking away or overthrowing of established order. I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos - especially activity that seems to have no meaning. It seems to me to be the road toward freedom - external revolt is a way to bring about internal freedom. Rather than starting inside, I start outside - reach the mental through the physical. I am a Libran - if astrology has anything to do with it... - JM
Love is right. It starts in my body and then moves to the sky. Every so-called mistake is sacred. Every false lead is a blessing that brings me closer to the real. I keep watching my illusions go up in flames, truth soon cools me in its indubitable way. I don't ask anybody how I should live my life. I just live it my way. I am not saying that I will not make mistakes, I will. But I will try not to make the same mistake again and again. That's enough. I'll try and find a new mistake every day, and make it. That is the only way to learn, that is the only way for me to come to my own inner light.

Just buy a bottle and carry in your huge adidas bag.
Yes the 'forbidden fruit' syndrome also has a part to play I'm sure...
its all in ure mind dude...
what u cant even drink water?what about guys who are sick?do women also keep the fast?
Women also keep the fast... yes.
Guys who are sick... can stay home and do whatever they want.
You can't do it in public, thats it.
You can always carry a water bottle and drink behind closed doors nobody will say anything.
Thats exactly what I am doing today V... thank you.
I think i read you dont have a kitchen at home, then how do you manage during lunch time?
waaaaahhaaaaaaa :(... don't remind me that. Damn man thats the sad part. especially with my work outs I need to eat.
How do I manage? Well I don't eat lunch. What I do is, when I am getting dinner packed, I get a club sandiwch . or a burger... or whatever packed extra for the next day. I eat in the morning before coming to work...
thats it... I skip lunch.
You got a kitchen?
Ofcourse i have a kitchen. Sandwich is a good idea. Bring some fruits to the office, bananas are very good. Easy to eat and fills the stomach pretty fast.
Oh yeah right... ur a Western Expat. They're apparently paid MUCH higher than an Indian.
These idiots out here think English means education. So they think whites are like really educated...
Lol...
Anyway... I ain't jealous. Just remember you were an expat and probably you got an awesome house, obviously with a kitchen.
Hey V... I AM NOT ALLOWED to EAT or DRINK in office.
If I have to dribk water I have to hide in the loo and drink it.
And I am not ready to eat my food in the toilet.
No they do not allow food inside office during the fast.
Anyway, am planning to start hopping these iftar parties and hog for free.
I’m Indian born western expact, I aint white. I once heard an Arab talking to one American saying, “Indians do much better job with half the price you take then why should we employ you?”. People here do acknowledge Indians are educated and hard working. I was pleasantly surprised to see that in some offices there is no difference in the salaries of western or Indian expat.
Hey that’s very bad you cant bring food to office. My dh got an email saying he can eat or drink anything as long as he shuts the door. I thought you could too.
Good luck with your iftar parties!
