This is the best topic to gossip around on. Every second person I meet talks about someone or the other getting sexually involved with some other person out of the formal / marriage arrangements.
The closest animal to human is monkey. Even in most species of Monkeys, there is monogamy. Human is programmed to be in monogamous relationship(?). But I believe, human is also programed to have hetero-sexual relationship. We hear a lot of stories about cases which are actually moving away from the basic programmed way of choices... Is this evolution? If yes, where are we headed?
But when it comes to extra-marital, there have been stories of polygamy since the history is known to modern society. As per the program, all man-woman relations are considered to be for re-production. But even in monogamy, you may have re-production and if the right choices are made, genes can evolve much better. So why are we programmed as against our closest relatives (monkeys) to be polygamous? or is it just exception to normal behaviour?

Who am I? My past or future?
I know that I am my present. But what my present really is?
Conventionally, it is assumed that what I learnt in past, what I experienced in past and what I did in past is what defines me or decides my present...
But most of the things that I always do is either because of fear of the future consequence or gains I expect in future. I studied engineering to get better career options. I do hard work as I want salary at the end of the month. I write this blog as I want people to read and appreciate it... Everything that I do in present is based on what I want in future. And that is what becomes my past which defines my present....
So now, who am I really? My past or (expected) future?

Fittest to survive? No I dont think so...
Have you ever seen two dogs fighting for food? It is not always that the stronger wins. It is the more desperate dog who wins.
In reality also, the most desperate one becomes fittest to survive. I have seen really sick people surviving only because of their will power.
Is there anything more to Darvin's theory?

Boss
The story goes like this ...
One day in a store where I spotted a dog with a list of items. The dog was actually comparing the names on the list and selecting right items to be bought. Next the dog goes to the counter and makes correct payment and picks up the bag. I was impressed with the dog and decided to follow him to his house. On the road, dog had all intelligence to obey the signals. After reaching home, the dog rings the bell. Door opens, owner comes and hits the dog with a stick. Now I was confused so much that I rushed and asked the owner "You have such an intelligent dog, he must be doing so much of work that you would not even need to get up from your seat. And you beat him?"
The owner said, this dog again forgot keys to the house and made me get up!!!
Why do bosses expect so much from their subordinates? Do they not know that if given more freedom the team can do a better job? If they dont have enough trust on the team, why did they recruit them at the first place?

Who am I?
Who I am and what I am here for!!!
At the end of the matter, we all are set of atoms and molecules. The individuality we get is only because of the unique combination. It always amuses me as to how the minor changes in configuration could make so much of a difference in personalities.
Every 7 years all your atoms and molecules are replaced with new (similar) ones. But you still keep your identity.
There has to be more than atoms and molecules to human body and no one knows for sure as to what it is...

Mother
Mother is the first word that most of us have uttered after coming to this world. We start seeing the world from her eyes even before we are born. We copy everything that is said by her.
But when we grow up, most often we want to keep little distance from her. May be asking her to stay little far when she drops us to school, or may be we move out just to get little freedom from her.
Are we programmed to be away from our mother? Is she programmed to do what ever she does for us?
As parent, I feel proud when my daughter does something good. But I dont worry about my sick mother... is it all programming? Can GOD be so brutal on mothers who are ready to give life for babies?
