An Autobiography of a Nun - A Review..

An Autobiography of a Nun.... One of the most controversial books of the Catholic Church. It tells you about the facts that happen inside the four walls of a Convent. My first reaction when I saw the book at CrossWords was like, "Wow.. Now this is something to read.. Let's see what it has that i would not know". It had much much more than I could ever think about. It speaks about Priests being involved in sexual practices with nuns. It tells you about how nuns are discriminated withing the convent. Have you ever heard of a High Class nun and Low Class Nun? I mean common.. Stop insulting the Profession of God. Even today donations are taken in the name of Education.. Damn it.. Just because others do it, does not mean that we should also do it. We understand that we need money to run institutions and develop institutions, but please stop forcing the students to give it... We have all rights to ask for donors and we know we will get them. Ruining education at the expense of Money should be considered as one of the biggest crime in India.. That is why we are not improving. There is much much more in this book which says about how a nun who wanted to oppose these things was troubled and how so called officials tried to prove her as a mentally unstable person. I can only write and ponder.. But I'm looking for an appropriate answer to all my questions. Is there anyone here who can give me an answer???

Lost But Found... Strayed away But got back..

It's been a long time.... I was lost but now I've been found.. I had strayed but now I've got back... Lots of games (Thanks to facebook) and loads of work (thanks to office)... Time just got out of hand.... Sometimes I think what is more important. But just cannot figure it out. How is it that I do not do what I want to.. But i feel happy with what I'm doing... I know it sounds confusing but it always happens. Things go from good to bad and from bad to worse. But at the end of it all there's always something that I've learned. A lesson that makes you think, makes you ponder, makes you visualize things the way you would have never done before. I sometimes think WTF am I doing but then I always say to myself that what 'm doing is What I Am and What I want to Be...
