Property tax



A friend recently made a very very elaborate document to make the online payment of the property tax very very easy.
It was aimed at audience such as :
A) lay persons
B) lay persons who don't know when the tax needs to be paid
C) lay persons who don't extensively swear by google search engine's capabilities

Specifically, it is aimed at the property tax payment in Bangalore for online users.
I found is extremely useful, hence sharing it here :

Metamorphosis


Wondering aloud. ....
Do people change? Or situations change? Or just time ? All or none?

Children, I've heard , have the undistorted understanding of things. What you see is what you get.  As we grow older, with various influences directly or indirectly,  there is a change. Analysis and situation and context is added to the simple thought.


With time , the thoughts and influences change and so does the pattern of life.

Difference of preferences are obvious between two persons 
This can b attributed to their personalities which again maybe influenced by their situations and surrounding and so on.
 

How about differences in preferences for the same person over a period of time? Also notable. Especially in cases where we hear


-" you used to like mango as a child , now what happened?"


- " you enjoyed rock music in school, now your stuck with jazz?"


-"before marriage you used to call me every hour, now you don't even have time to answer my calls":-/

 

And to all the above , the common factor is " look how you have changed". Sometimes change cannot be attributed to the one person who is supposed to have changed. It might be a combination of reasons :

Situations, priorities, context - these change with time and mostly as ones life progresses.



Still wondering aloud. ....
Do people change? Or situations change? Or just time ? All or none?

Theory of "something"


Simple yet extremely effective pictorial description that I came across.
We fail to appreciate the blessings that we already have and look for happiness elsewhere.

Blessings that are people, skills, food, shelter,job and every small day to day task that we are able to do.
