Take a walk down the memory lane with us, as we remind you of 30 reasons why every brother loves his sister. 1.   You may say the meanest things to her yourself, but dare anybody else even raise a voice against her. You're extremely possessive and protective about her. © Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images 2.   She complained to your parents about your mischief back when you were kids but also lied to them about your whereabouts when you really wanted to be out with friends that one time. 3.  You've lost count of the thousand pranks you've played on each other as kids just to get the other one scolded by your parents. © Thinkstock Photos/Getty Images 4.  Every time a relative visited, you fought like cats and dogs for the money they left saying "bachcho ko toffee khila den...

This letter was written by Sanjiv Bhatt, an ex-IPS officer, on Facebook in response to Hardik Patel’s demands for reservations for the Patel community based in Gujarat. Dear Hardik Patel, I am a common citizen of Gujarat. I did not know who you were until a few days ago. I have a feeling I will be seeing a lot more of you now. I have read that your organisation, Patidar Anamat Andolan Samiti (PAAS), came into existence less than a month ago. I have been told that you believe that the Patidar community is losing out in the development race because of reservation quota. Depending from where you are looking at it, reservations, in their current form, might be a problem for some and a lifeline for others. One thing I clearly don’t understand is, if you think reservations are a problem, why are you asking for it? In a television interview you said that the government should either give reservation to the patidars or remove reservation all together. This is like saying “Give me a piec...

.  Pain is part of growing. Sometimes life closes doors because it’s time to move forward.  And that’s a good thing because we often won’t move unless circumstances force us to.  When times are tough, remind yourself that no pain comes without a purpose.  Move on from what hurt you, but never forget what it taught you.  Just because you’re  struggling doesn’t mean you’re failing.  Every great success requires some type of worthy struggle to get there.  Good things take time.  Stay patient and stay positive.  Everything is going to come together; maybe not immediately, but eventually. Remember that there are two kinds of pain: pain that hurts and pain that changes you.  When you roll with life, instead of resisting it, both kinds help you grow. 2.  Everything in life is temporary. Every time it rains, it stops raining.  Every time you get hurt, you heal.  After darkness there is always light – you are reminde...
