Weekdays Vs. Weekends, Pay Day Vs. Working Days

It’s Sunday again, the very next day after the weekend. Getting back to work, somewhat is a sordid experience. In an organization where there are very few public holidays, Saturday is the only day to relish all those week long tensions and pressures. The weekend simply flies by without offering any seconds to cherish. In the same way, this week however would end without being noticed. Sometimes, weeks are as long as months and astonishingly as short as a day. As the week ends at it’s quickest, so does the weekend.


It’s now Wednesday today. Two working days gone and two more days left for the weekend. A bit of sigh of relief at the midst of the week with just two more days until Saturday sets the mind at complete ease. Friday is the best day of the week as the following day happens to be a no duty day.

Four weeks and a couple of days pass by and it’s about time to receive payment for a laborious one full month of work. The ending of the month is always a nice one for it’s the time to get paid, and with some pocketful of money, the positive energies are all activated. The only day which is quite motivating and inspiring happens to be the pay day.
Hard work results in a payday and the circle moves round and round, the same procedure applies with laborious week and a pleasant weekend. All these circular movements are happening at the fastest pace and with a little joy of pay day or a weekend, the shortening of life remains ignored. There are so many things undone, yet the adjustments and compromises always come into effect along the hectic schedules. Looking at the Mayan calendar, different speculations have been made though the third quarter of the population of the earth believe it as a hoax, but this possibility of Armageddon should somehow aid people to set a specific timeframe in order to continue balancing the payday and work day with weekdays and weekends.

Schools In My Country

My country Nepal is a south Asian country. It is a developing third world country. Nepal has gone through regime of several dynasties and so has its educational system. History of proper educational system is not very long in Nepal. As a result there are still many weakness and pitfalls in educational systems in Nepal.

The first school of Nepal was established in 1853 and the pupils were handful royal family and Rana family. It took decades for common Nepal citizens to have access to education. Still the literacy rate is said to be below 50% and in that too female literacy is way too low.

The educational system is always interfered and politicized. The government has not been able to provide basic infrastructure for decent education to public. Government schools are usually noted for poor funding and staffing. The academic results are usually poor in comparison to the private school and colleges. The extracurricular activities are out of question in most of the government schools and even in private ones.

The present concept in Nepalese student is that if you want to get quality education then get admitted in private schools and colleges. The problem is that almost all private schools and colleges are expensive and not all commoners can afford it, moreover in private colleges and universities it can be very difficult to get enrolled if you want to apply for professional courses like medical and engineering etc.

Nepalese academic Curriculum is sometimes criticized for its impracticalness. Students basically learn only theories. Even I passed my secondary schools mugging and cramming theories and without ever getting in the laboratories. Now that I have seen colleges of my country and college of this country I feel very sad and pathetic towards the young students of my country.

Apart from that the courses are orthodox and not modernized in time. Books are not published in time and even exams are not held in scheduled times due to political instability. Some missionary schools like Buddhanilkantha, St. Xaviers, St. Marys have set standards for other schools.

The Zahir by Paulo Coelho

The most popular book by Paulo Coelho in my knowledge should be “The Alchemist”. I haven’t gone through it but the one I found myself indulging is called “The Zahir”. The book is all about love and the ups and downs in a relationship. In between the ups and downs of one’s personal life, there are many other petty incidences which eventually happen to be very much responsible or the key to the destiny in precise.


The story takes off in Paris and later lands on the steppes of Kazakhstan in the final stage. The wife of the narrator in the story, the author of “A time to rend and a time to sew” leaves home without any information and vanishes leaving no traces behind.


The renowned author of the book “A time to rend and a time to sew” gets his wife Esther missing mysteriously leaving no traces behind. His wife a war correspondent is feared to have been captivated by terrorists or she might have been bored with their marriage or she might have been possibly blackmailed, all these fears, anxiety, curiosity have been beautifully laid in words. When his wife disappears, the author then tags her as “The Zahir” of his life. The only way to get to his wife is through Mikhail who happens to be a very close associate of Esther. In the beginning, Mikhail is a total detest but in due course of time, the hatred then slowly turns into respect and eventually into love. The author then is forced to travel to Kazakhstan in search of his wife whom he loves very much and the fact which he realizes after her disappearance.

From “The Zahir” this particular paragraph or the message is the “No one should ever ask themselves that :why am I unhappy? The question carries within it the virus that will destroy everything. If we ask that question it means we want to find out what makes us happy. If what makes us happy is different from what we have now, then we must either change once and for all or stay as we are, feeling even more unhappy” and it is the real message to the people who have all the privileges one could get but are unhappy with their life.

Why does investment upon silver could be referred to one of the best investment? It’s because, the demand for silver is way too above the annual production.

Heaven

There may be so many moments in which one can find enormous joy but those moments pass by without being noticed. In my case, I just discovered the state of my mind when I almost reach heaven where I am surrounded by clouds, clear blue sky, old aged males with white beard and dressed in white gown, a bit younger female counterparts who have never forgotten to put that lovely smile on their face, the crown made up of natural twigs and leaves on their head and they too dressed in white, white horses with extended wings flying all around.


The exact time I reach this state is when I get sleepy and music being played along. The genre however doesn’t play a very significant role as I have have gotten me into this beautiful state listening from Gorgoroth to Celine Dion. Just on the brink when my full consciousness collapses into the sleep, I feel I’ve some other sense which supervises all these moments and conflicts as well. At this very time, I feel myself free from everything and into the world which is all built of my fantasy. At this time I decide what to dream of and most of the times; my dream is led by my intuition and thus I dream what I want to.


The other thing that I just realized is that, smile is the most beautiful possession one can have. Had not the females in the white, crowned with natural twigs and leaves put a smile on their face, my heaven would have become a normal place when I and we live today. Therefore a smile brings a smile and I’ve been thinking of a person who’s got the sweetest smile in the whole world, the imaginative smile I see in her face has already brought smile on my lips. She’s got a great smile, even the prison officer in the movie “Lock Up” doesn’t smile to the best as her,’ the one in my mind’ can.

I often visit heaven as it’s just a state of mind and to make my heaven complete, there’s always someone with that terrific lethal sweet smile.
