Have not featured Thiruvalluvar for a while. The current phase in life reminded me of this kuraL from school days. So here goes -kuraL no 341.
yaadanin yaadanin niingiyaan noodal
adanin adanin ilan.
யாதனின் யாதனின் நீங்கியான் நோதல்
அதனின் அதனின் இலன்.
यादअनिन् यादअनिन् नीन्गियान् नोदल्
अदअनिन् अदअनिन् इलन्
अदअनिन् अदअनिन् इलन्
Whatever, whatever a man moves away from
From that, from that, he suffers no more
tiruvaLLuvar
तिरुवळळुवर
திருவள்ளுவர்
So if watching high pitched debates on television is bothering you, stop watching them. Some very well known and sensational criminal cases in the last few years just passed me by, because I do not watch TV news.
Same thing for most of the things in life. Some things however bother you more when you move away from it. But then it means, you haven't moved away completely. I remember being irked by the pronunciation of a certain media person and actually getting quite worked about it. Then I stopped listening to that show, and now I am at peace.
