AIDS- A gruesome reality!!!!!!!!!

AIDS - Syndrome? According to stats, India has the largest number HIV patients..So that will be in millions according to indian population... This has nothing to do with my post. Although i do feel that more AIDS awareness campaigns be carried out seriously...



My prime concern is something else..100% of all the people i know suffer from AIDS too... For me it stands for..Acting as If Doing Something - Syndrome.. Now im not trying to be funny, but anybody i talk to is extremely busy.. and then when i ask them- doing what? Ehhhh Nothing! So what u busy with dude? If the recession has hit u hard, and i know it has cause it has hit me on my head, my pocket and everywhere else, just say so!!!



I dont get the picture, your busy, rather very very very very busy, and just dont have time to even pick up that call ; but still doing nothing...



Now somebody explain me this philosophy!!!!!!!!!!

    right, at the moment I'm pretending to be very busy with my worksheet, but I'm actually blog-hoovering and commenting :) seriously workhard, if people are sitting on their asses, they don’t necessarily want the world to know …
    long time no visit? come see my blog's new look...

    hey...thought i d drop by to say hi..

    actually i guess people try to look busy so that the TL's,PM's etc etc think they r WORKING for a change!! hence lesser chances of gettin fired rite...it all comes down to just wantin to stick around i guess...okies then..me back to another chat window whilst my boss thinks i m workin..;-)

    haha!! This syndrome is in our office too.. one set of people we call LBDN.. look busy do nothing.. these people go around with a file from one table to another.. and back again..

    the other set we call PgUpPgDn.. those who sit in fron of an Excel Sheet and does exactly that PgUpPgDn...

    A teacher told me once...we live to pass time. Those with AIDS need to tell you they are alive. So they do not tell you anything and act busy.

    Hey thanks for dropping by and giving me a chance to visit your blog. About this AIDS...well I haven't come across anyone who does this...probably I am in a city with very few friends...most of the people out here are more like acquaintances...but if people are actually pretending to be busy just to avoid spending money then it's deplorable...

    the painting in question is a van gogh, yes. and so was the previous one, if you remember it... i am very much an art lover, and most particularly i love van gogh.
    i think monsoon dreams got a bit confused. monet is another french artist who used surreal colours... i corrected her, though :)

    I like the other AIDS that you are talking about.

    Anyway I did part of my schooling in Zambia. Today almost 60% of my classmates are dead....they died of AIDS. By the way I am 39.

    I guess the other 40% are afflicted by AIDS of the other kind that you have described here.

    May be that ppl those who suffer with AIDS, they actually don't want to do anything or just love to do nothing which may be the cause of their busy "empty" or "blank" schedule..[:P]
