Whay you First See is What you Perceive !!!!

I was on a very casual chat with one of the Bank officials of the IOB Chennai on my last visit to the bank. My Questions Started like this, Do you guys have options for Loans ? He pointed me to an officer who he told is taking care of that. I continued to talk to him.

My thoughts run back and felt that ” I am holding an account with this bank for the past 3+ years and I have never thought of getting a loan from this guys. I had run to SBI some time back last month for a loan where in my office people pointed me and my mind is only full of SBI for the loan purpose. ”

The official told me that your mind will ask for what it first perceives. It is real.. I opened an account with IOB, since my father had one there and I have gone to his bank once are twice. In the same lines, My mind is full of SBI for loan other than anything since my office has lot of people who got loans from the particular SBI Branch.

It is true, But let me try to change some of my perceptions.

I went to home after three days today morning and saw that my house is still surrounded by water. It became mandatory to make sure my bike didn’t get fused inbetween the water to get me drowned. This is happening for the third time in this month as i mentioned in my earlier blog - Water Once Again ..@. But this time the water was little lesser than the previous once.

Also I noticed in the morning news that the ice glaciers in the Arctic and Antarcticais falling as small pieces which makes it melt at a faster pace. Scientist from 190 countries are gonna have a meet on this the following month to do something about it…

Not sure of what can be done.

You can read more on this from Earth Policy and Eco Bridge.

Let us live with Nature and have more water around everywhere.

It is for the third time in this month starting from 28th october to nov 2 and Nov 12 , 13 and 14 , Our Area Ram Nagar is once again surrounded by water completely.

It is tougth to go home and come back. I am staying out side my house and going home only in the mornings ..!

It will take time for this situation to change down the line and it is a very bad move that people started building houses around the place.
