Every cloud has a silver lining

Every cloud has a silver lining is a idiom which people often used to comfort somebody who is going through bad times. It is always possible to get something positive out of a situation, no matter how unpleasant, difficult or even painful it might seem.

Writing about this topic one thing which struck to my mind is song dedicated to two animated character of Thomas and friend music video Bill and Ben which is ,

Life is full of surprises, full of ups and downs
And so to have a silver lining, first there must be a cloud

Bill and Ben the twins work together all day long

They sometimes disagree how things are done

They get down in the dumps

If things they do don't work out just as planned

But if at first you don't succeed then understand

There's no sense in worrying if things start going wrong

Obstacles can all be overcome

But even Bill and Ben both agree that in the end

If you never lose hope, you're sure to cope and carry on

Every cloud is silver-lined, even when it rains

So don't get too downhearted, as things are bound to change

All you've gotta do is wear a smile and you will find

Your sun will shine

Bill and Ben are tank engine twins that work for some clay company. These two character face many problems in there life but finally agreed upon fact that if you do not lose hope there must be silver lining which can be understood from the above song. Of course, this is not real character but it will provide a lots of inspiration.The world we live in is not perfect, and we will never ever find such a world which philosopher Plato talked about. Every day there will be things that make us cry or feel sad about our selves. So people who will stand in front of difficulties which they face, they will be able to improve them selves and let their dream come true.

Most good and bad things have a upside or downside, there are no absolutes, so we must not worry ourselves too much with what going on in our life, rather we must be up to challenge every day, and be prepared to see that silver lining in every dark cloud.

Cricket or Craze

Yes, it is religion of every Indian. It is good to be sporty but harmful to be obsessed with any sport. Craziness of Cricket in India is much more than any other country which can be view as both good as well as bad for the nation.

"In 2011 world cup, India and Srilanka playing there final match. All Indians including me were glued to television whole day and watching exiting match and why not it is World cup final...!!". But do u think it is good for nation to keep one day off..?? and answer can be yes or no. Yes because it is world cup final and No because the most shocking news came last year when nation's GDP decreased by 5% because of employees who were supposed to be working in their office were sitting in their houses watching Cricket. sounds ridiculous..!!

Sports are played on international planes to bring unity and friendship among nations. But how dose one explain the slurring by players during India-Pakistan cricket matches? How does this help in cultivating friendship? And what about T.V sets breaking in an outrage by supporters of the team that dose not win. Complete madness!Our nation has spent months discussing where the nation's most loved sport heading? Nothing new, we do this after every match and then back with our own normal lives.

From last few years, Cricket has taken one more step toward craziness known as IPL where not only common people but all big personality of India are taking part including businessman, film stars and politicians. Cricket has became business and true sport spirit faded. On 8th April IPL is going start with ten teams and whole program will last for fifty-one days this year. Television showing advertisement of IPL and announcing 'Bharat Band' for fifty one day - really crazy! But the time we spend on pondering on the issue and wasting fifty-one days for IPL can be utilized for the development of our own selves and finally in the development of our country.

Of course I am not suggesting to stop watching a Cricket match or any sports, but I am suggesting to watch, enjoy and show your Cricket love with your own and nations on going development. Do not become crazy behind any sports. Enjoy and cheer for the sports you love the most but as true Indian. Do not let Cricket master you..!!
