Wrong Airport, Cab ride… and Total Emptiness!

Last updated on: May 12, 2006 at 6:22 am By Desh Kapoor

I am not sure what it is.. but somehow I keep running into people who will discuss spiritual stuff with me.. I returned to Houston from project.. but on the airport on the opposite side of the city.. and the funny thing is that I had parked my car on the other airport (from where I had taken off)! Anyways.. I looked around for a cheap shuttle.. and but the shuttle kiosk guy couldnt get a shuttle to come.. meanwhile this guy who owned a limo.. was going to Hobby.. and so said he can take me for $20.. cool .. I thought.. and hopped on. I was listening to his music which was pretty nice.. some Black singer who had died recently named Luther was singing... beautiful voice! Read more

Astrology and Personality Types

Last updated on: May 9, 2006 at 11:16 am By Desh Kapoor

Are Leos full of pride and Geminis will dual personalities? The astrologers would have us believe YES.. but does research support it? And what do astrologers think of that research.. this article says it all! Researchers investigating astrology have concluded there is no evidence to support a link between personality, intelligence and birth dates. They studied more than 15,000 people and the predictions relating to them, as well as the qualities their birth sign should give them, and found there was "probably more truth in a comic strip".

Reason and Logic with Emotional Incompetence!

Last updated on: May 7, 2006 at 3:49 am By Desh Kapoor

There are people who are pre-disposed to the feeling of showing their superiority. They would rather risk the world than give up their imaginary ghosts that rule their hallucinations. I had thought that reason and logic is something that can be universally conveyed to everyone with any bit of intelligence. But is the ability to understand any thing in a logical or reasonable manner a barometer of ones intelligence? Do we really lead or fashion our lives based on some form of reasonable line of thinking? Not everyone and not all. But the mark of success of a person probably is how in the most crucial and important times in one's live does he/she use a reasonable judgment? Read more
