I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, start out dead and get it out of the way. Then you wake up in an old age home feeling better every day.. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, then, when you start work, you get a gold watch on your first day. You work 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You drink alcohol, you party, you're generally promiscuous and you get ready for High School. You go to primary school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a baby, then, you spend your last 9 months floating peacefully with luxuries like central heating, spa, room service on tap, larger quarters everyday, and finally you finish off as an orgasm.
a collection of thoughts, quotes, beliefs and musings of intellectuals, famous personalities, philosophers, thinkers who have changed the world with their work and contributions.

Thoughts-Numbers
Why are Numbers like : 1 is One & 2 is two.... interesting
Have you ever thought why........ 1 means "one", and 2 means "two"?
The roman numerals are easy to understand but what was the logic behind the phonecian numbers?
It's all about angles!
It's the number of angles.
If one writes the numbers down (see below) on a piece of paper in their older forms, one quickly sees why.
I have marked the angles with "0"s.
No 1 has one angle.
No 2 has two angles.
No 3 has three angles. etc.
and "O" has no angles
Interesting, isn't it?
An ancient phonecian manuscript explains this and I thought it to be fascinating.

Life-Vision
The train has started moving. It was packed with people of all ages, mostly with the working men and women and young college guys and gals. Near the window was seated an old man with his 30 years old son. As the train moves by, the son is overwhelmed with joy as he is thrilled with the scenery outside..
"See dad, the scenery of green trees moving away is so beautiful!!"
This behavior from a thirty year old man made the other people feel strange about him. Every one started murmuring something or other about this man"This guy seems to be a crack case.." newly married Anup whispered to his wife.
Suddenly it started raining... Rain drops fell on the travelers through the opened window. The Thirty year old son , filled with joy, says "See dad, how beautiful the rain is .."
Anup's wife got irritated with the rain drops spoiling her new suit.
Anup ,"Cant you see its raining, you old man, if your son is not feeling well get him soon to a mental hospital..and dont cause disturbance in public henceforth"
The old man hesitated first and then in a low tone replied "We are on the way back from hospital, my son got discharged today morning, he was a blind by birth, he got his vision last week only, the rain and nature are new to his eyes.. Please forgive us for the inconvenience caused.."
