Naive, Stupid or Oversmart



This post is dedicated to one of the girls I met on my recent trek in the Himalayas.

She was psychopathy personified. These are my thoughts when I was interacting with her.

She hailed  from a small town of Odisha. She strongly reminded of someone I had recently parted my ways with.

Some people are naive, some are stupid and some are oversmart. You need to have smart understanding of human psychology to know the difference.

The oversmart people act naive and can con you like never before. They have a concise plan ready all the time to fool you. Their plans are so carefully crafted that they treat you like their slave and you very happily accept it. Only the tip of the iceberge is seen that may warn you about their intentions.

All the plans you make are always trashed for their so called better plans. If you trash their plans, you become the worst person that may have ever existed and their life time enemy. Everything needs to fall in place the way they want, else it is crap.

They will always have a reason to disagree with what you have to say. Their actions to not match their word and they will never have a single word of appreciation or gratitude for anyone in their life.

A oversmart will walk into your bathroom without even knocking and when you ask why, they will tell you that they thought that it was an entrance to a staircase which is visible on the other side.

Perfect example of  naive is Geet from Movie Jab we Met & I am still looking for someone who is  really stupid.

In search of footsteps of the Great Shivaji Maharaj - Umbarkhind

February 1661: It was 2nd of February and the Mughal Army was marching fast towards the Konkan region from Pune. The army consisted of Horses, Bulls, Elephants, small canons and men. They were equipped for a full fledged war anytime. Their head, Kartalab Khan, was a fierce Uzbek warrior. Trusted by the Mughal Emperor, Aurangzeb, he was sent to the Pune region to assist Shahista Khan to wage war against the Great Shivaji. Kartalab Khan was assisted by Kachhap, Jasawant Kokate, and the lady sardar RaiBaghan. The army had reached Lohgad and Khan had decided to take the pass between Lohgad and Visapur to enter Konkan. The spies informed Kartlab Khan that the Great Shivaji was resting at Kuruwande Village, roughly 4 miles west to the Lohgad. Khan instantly jumped at the opportunity to siege the Great Shivaji and gain higher ranks at the courts of the Emperor. Thus, the army changed its course and turned towards to Kuruwande. As they reached Kuruwande, they found that the informers

Animal Welfare and I Part VI

  Radhika and I together we have many rescues stories to share. One such is that of a community dog who lived near her home. This fella was one big notorious kid. He had developed a wound and later there were maggots infestation. First time in net, the boy escaped by breaking the net with his teeth. Second time we somehow managed to get the dog in the van with the net and I drove him to the Angel Lady’s shelter. She treated him well and some three or four days later this guy ran off from the shelter. The group leader hid his face for a few days until Radhika mentioned that the dog had returned to his spot! I was amazed by this return. The miracles that mother nature brings forth all the time are euphoric. There was another case in my neighborhood . During each drive for about three months were trying to get hold of this female dog, she escaped every time. Then she was pregnant again. Finally two of her pups survived to adulthood and she almost willingly got in the vehicle for spaying.

  People would come to her to adopt dogs. Most of them would be looking for free puppies of exotic breeds. Many didn’t want to take home any dog that would have been previously owned. Hardly anyone wanted to have the local indie dogs. The group also used to organize Adoption camps. People used to huddle up only to see puppies in the pens. The caregivers of these puppies would mostly be heartbroken since very few pups would be adopted. The kitties would find homes quickly but getting the dogs adopted used to be real hard work. Once another lady and I visited an elderly couple who wanted to adopt a pup. We took some 4 healthy pups in carrier in an auto rikshaw. When I realised that the energy levels of the couple together wont match to that of the pup, I told the lady and she instantaneously agreed. We brought the pups back. Another time, a family had adopted a pup during adoption camp. When we called to inquire about how the pup had settled with the family, we were told the pup was
