Self esteem Vs Ego

My frnd asked me what is the difference between selfesteem and ego.. the following were the reply i gave...


Self esteem is the opinion you have of yourself. It is based on your attitude to the following:

"How you think others see you"

this thinking makes you to ask few further questions and your subconcious mind prepares the answer for it....

You value urself as a person based on how others think of you.

your confidence builds on the value you get on yourself

you value the importance of the job you do based on how others think of you

Your independence or ability to stand on your own feet depends on the job you do

Your potential for success depends on the independence you have

Your strengths and weaknesses is decided by your potential to success

Your achievements will depends on the strength and weakness you have


Your purpose in life has a meaning on the achivements you get

Your place in the world is decided by the purpose of your life

Your social status and how you relate to others is decided by your place in the world

So self esteem is important...

the difference between self esteem and ego is...

making others think good of you is self esteem and how the hell he can think low of me is the ego!!!

Ghajini

I don’t have much time to write a full length review.. so let me give a kutty review…

Ghajini:

A Story line borrowed from Christopher Nolan’s Memento. I have not seen the film memento. And hence I don’t know if ghajini has lived upto it. Murugadoss need to be applauded for his direction and story telling. While Asin and Surya needs to be appreciated for their contribution to the film. Surya needs to come out from the nanda style starring and walking with his raised shoulder. The way he runs and fights are not much different from that of nanda. Asin has done a neat job. Nayantara has total sothapified her part. Probably she need to go for gym regularly to keep her fit. She neither could dance, nor cud run, nor could show some facial expression. And kevelamana dressing sense. Particularly the X-matchi song is total sothapified. Harris Jeyaraj has not done a great job but for 2 songs. Asin cud have been introduced in any other better rather than the stereo type song intro. At least the director cud have zoomed out of the song as an advt shooting which would have made it a bit natural.

The expected flaws, which the director did not do are, 1. the villain having an eye for nayanthara and hero saving her scene.. 2. the hero finally falling in love with nayanthara…3. making the hero to change the get up on and off….. 4. showing that surya was arrested by police at the end….

the flaws which the director did are.. 1. selection of nayanthara for that character. 2 the song x-matchi.. 3. introducing double action in the last, 4. when nayanthara escapes from the villain factory, making the whole laborers to chase her..5 In spite of 100s of person chasing her, the auto driver did not mind why they were chasing and just took her out of the place… 5. Matrix effect in fighting

First half of the movie was ok.. but the second half prolonged… and final fight was bit boring

Enough of films we had based on problems with brain.. now this is third in row…. Following chandramukhi and anniyan….

Harris jayaraj has sothapified totally few songs resembles songs from anniyan too… and hamma hamma from Bombay… and the BGM was horrible….

A touching SMS from my frnd

Share a thought of love
with me my friend.
Dream a life of
together with me.
Keep that twinkle in your eyes,
which made me mad.
Keep away those tears,
which makes me sad.
Be my partner at
the shores of loneliness.
Give me a new
definition of happiness.
Hold my hand during
the journey of life.
With our hands together,
every sorrow we will survive.
Hurt me, tease me,
and make me cry.
But in the end give me
a shoulder on which I can cry.
