Most of the times, not having to instantly speak my mind played good for me. I occassionaly have regrets on what I say, but I usually end up saying to myself that I should have talked back. Not only are my impulses slow, I also find it hard to use words at times. This sure does sound like a syndrome isn't it? I always wonder why some people talk less and why some talk more. What makes a quiet person quiet?
Words are very powerful. They can inspire people or they can hurt . Every personal trait of an individual has to be balanced in life to make things work right. No matter how skillful you are or how knowledgeble you are, if you do not communicate well, you fail.
I deeply admire people with concise communication skills. Having to express clearly, fluently is such a wonderful gift. What good do you do to anyone when you have your thoughts buried to yourself.

Boon or Bane?
I was for a lunch at a restaurant one day, and as I was alone, I took a local journal to thumb through the pages. But as I went to the table, I was shown a small gadget placed on the table, that more looks like a point of sale system (POS) without a cash drawer :-), but instead has some cool apps built-in. Apart from ordering your menu, it has Games, Latest Movie Trailers, Music etc. Its a ziosk and it more looks like a mini-iPad hooked to a standing frame. I am going to come back to this restaurant..more often than I usally go, I thought. What's nice about the ziosk is, I didn't have to wait for the check. Swiped the card and got a receipt right there.. I thought these were replacements for the human cashier.
Well now, I am lured by not the delicious-looking food, but the cool-looking gadget. Aaha..this is where I enjoy watching the science take over values. The brilliant minds rule us, no doubt. we have indeed made a glorious leap into the 21st century that will make history in years to come. That said, there is more to be unveiled, I am sure. Science a boon or a bane? Whether its a curse or a blessing, life sometimes demands going at its pace.
