Best thing I saw today?




I saw a wonderul poster outside a juice junction I visit quite often.

It said “Holiday because we all are going on Picnic

The people working there could have just mentioned “Holiday Today”. I could sense the happiness and excitement they would have had when they wrote or stuck this poster there.

I realised then that HAPPINESS IS ALWAYS IN SMALLEST OF THINGS.

Enjoy and be Happy

Be POSITIVE and PASS it on.

Decoding Horn Ok Please




HornOkPlease is at the back of every truck in India . Do you know the exact origin?

The exact origin of this not known but it’s also one of the most misunderstood and joked at set of words . India observes and follows Right hand drive steering and drives on Left Side of the road . HORN- this is written behind and on left hand side - this means if you are planning to overtake the truck from left hand side please HONK since the visibility or the left of vehicle is poor despite every truck in India has truckers Man Friday ( the cleaner ) peeping outside that window . 

OK- this is written behind and in the middle - this means if you are following the truck behind at a safe distance ( one more sentence below ) it is OK . no action needed just be careful and keep following . 

PLEASE- this is written behind and at the right hand side , this comes in line where the driver is sitting . this means If you need to overtake PLEASE DO . The truck will allow u to pass. 

This is surely a work of a genius who decided that it should be written behind every truck in India, for the convenience of every affluent, educated driver with latest cars. 

What's your take on this?
