The Palace of Illusions !!!!!!!

Well people who are a die hard book worms..

This is a must read book . Especially for ladies. It gives such a different indepth meaning of things.. and also on Guys ( I'm not joking there ).

For that matter even guys should read the book, because you would have never thought of it in this way and what way or view is that. Its a women's point of view.

This book is all about Mahabarath.
So whats so different about it.. considering all of us know the mahabarath.
Well just that we have seen it through the view of a girl .
To be precise through the eyes of Draupadi.

I always thought all these epics are sooo male dominated ( sorry guys ) but I do.
I mean its always like.. Oh so and so is such a great warrior.. such a righteous man.. blah blah blah.. and so on..
Very few actually remember the ladies who actually might have acted as the catalyst for the whole chain of events ( yess I know.. we are the root of all the problems.. hehe what to do we can't help it ;) ).


Anyways I always wanted to know how she felt when she was made to marry all the 5 brothers.. and also wanted to know how her feelings was towards Karna.. Hehe well I was so happy to get a view on it..

And thats when I realised couple of things...

Expectations are like hidden rocks on your paths.. All they do is trip you up..

Time is even and merciful..

And I found these to be so true..

For the later.. the time is the same.. just that the situations and the circumstances in which we are makes it seem so different and making it seem such a while and make it seem such a big thing that you forget that sometimes you have to let go off things , nothing actually stays for ever ..

And this is where the former comes into place.. Because we expect soo much from our lives.. our family.. friends.. work.. studies.. be it anything.. and when we fall short of it.. It causes us such a big downfall..Ok may be downfall is not the right word.. Guess you just feel so low about it..
That you actually forget that all you have to do is try harder.. but not expect much in return..

Concentrate on trying to achieve the goal.. without thinking what you would get in return.. How much ever the pain is and the price you have to pay for that..

But the end question is do you wanna pay that price..???
