Four Stages

This post is not about data loss. But it is, of something that, funnily enough, reminds me of this particular comic. Its about an injury I recently had, which made me miss things I didn't want to miss.

Stage 1: Denial [Day 0]

"Its not an injury, I probably just over-exercised. It should be fine in a couple of days. "

Stage 2: Anger [Day 14]

"Damn it, I sure injured myself. My stupid, unfit body ! Cann't take few kilometers of running uphill !!"

Stage 3: Depression [Day 30]

"Still not fine. I wonder how long it'll take."

Stage 4: Acceptance [Day 45]

"It ain't gonna be this time, is it. "

The third kind

I always believed there were two kinds of men in this world, men who go to their deaths screaming, and men who go to their deaths in silence. Then I met a third kind.

- Rang de Basanti

Lets take a moment today, to remember those, who were the third kind.

Happy Independence Day, India.
