Passion and Compassion

One more thing I liked from "The Speaking Tree" section of Times Of India. It talked about the difference between Passion and Compassion.

When you are passionate about something, you are slave and when you become master, you are called Compassionate. You are not bound to the thing which you are compassionate about, instead, that thing is bound to you.

Nice, isn't it?
I think if we keep walking on the road of migration from passion to compassion, we grow up. :)

Sometimes we like something a lot.. We are mad for it... We always go for it. Suddenly we realize that it is making us ignore something which was/is very important for us. And we start sopping our move towards this thing which we like a lot. We concentrate on the thing which is important. Suddenly after long time, we think of going for the same thing again as now we have given enough to the important thing. And we don't find it that interesting.. Most of the time we lose interest completely in it. Does it happen to me only?

How pathetic it is when you need to give complete explanation for the reason for what you like!

शहाणपण येणं ही पण एक गंमत आहे, नाही?

it reminded me of the slogan of some ad - "क्यूंकि बढ़ना खुबसूरत है"
