The thirsty crow!

Date: Feb. 14
Time: 11:00 am IST
Lecture: Concrete technology
Class: B.Tech IV
Branch: Civil Engineering
College: National Institute of Technology, Surat.

Unfortunately i was forced to sit through the aforesaid lecture on concrete technology.
The professor, one of the vey few of his clan who doesn't kill us by giving boring lectures was giving a lecture on the properties of aggregates.

He came up with a story, the oft listened one.....
That of a crow, which was thirsty and suddenly found a jug with little water at the bottom.....
But the Prof came up with an intresting twist to the tale.....

The stones which the crow puts into the jug would absorb water upto an extent, due to the various fissures, cracks, microscopic pores, etc present.

And so there are chances that the crow won't be able to drink the water!!

How complaicat d life is????

The crow drinks water in Kindergarten and it may or may not when in graduation!

But who's thirst did it?
The crow's?
Or mine?

I guess as the thirst increases for anything from knowledge to money, we forget the simple things in life!

The roots are diffiult to be clung onto.....
Although we might sometimes realise and make a desperate attempt to cling on, not much can be done.....

What does flying high take away from us?
lots before you realise.....
lots before you end up being a slave of your needs rather than the other way around!

This crow is sick of the thirst!

Somebody help ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
