Good Music. Et al.

God, how I miss it! Was listening to Sadimchene some time back and nostalgia of the good ol' Raag days flooded the mind. All the practice sessions, so much fun :) I can write volumes and yet not do justice..
I listen to music the way I do any other work: with complete attention on it. Maybe that's why I never get time to listen to music here. (I mean, think about it. If you had to choose between anything and sleeping, what would your sleep starved brain tell you??) Well, tonight is an exception. I have the earphones plugged on, and I ploughed through the Carnatic archives.
I am now soaking in the best feeling in the world.

Ambiguity

One thing that I knew about myself (and which was enforced by all those obscure psychometric tests in OB class) is that I am not comfortable with ambiguity. The information given to me has to be clear and categorical. It's easy to say "Of course, getting all that you want is an ideal case", but in a situation which warrants an important decision, you would want all the information you can get your hands on before you press the button. Unfortunately, this NEVER happens in the real world.The lesson to be learnt here is to learn how to use the (unclear/insufficient) information given to us to the maximum possible extent, and make logical inferences and conclusions.
Ambiguity rules!
