#9.57 pm #wed #2Feb2016 You can never understand what life actually is. Everyday is just another colour on the canvas of your life. People come & go. They will benefit from you and then will bypass you. Let them do it. Because in that way they will achieve a mental satisfaction, which exactly is not correct. The biggest thing with which you can kill someone is your smile. Don't underrate your smile. Because after all this is the weapon with which you can conquer anyone. But you must not think of that. Because this weapon works automatically! Kill them with their own thinking. Do again & again what makes you feel good. Let them take you as a stupid person & do your work silently,.
