Beat the Heat


What was I thinking, can I really beat the chennai's synonym "hot weather". Talking about chennai's weather, I recall an incidence happened in convergys, a technician was over the phone with a US customer, apparently they were having a chit-chat while the customer was rebooting her systems which forms the part of troubleshooting steps. 
The technician was very inquisitive to know the weather types of where customer live, and quite obviously the customer happened to ask the same abouts of the place where the technician is in, Convergys was at Bangalore, but the technician hailed from chennai, so answered oh we enjoy only three types of weather in chennai and that is HOT, HOTTER  & HOTTEST, much to my amusement the customer bursted out laughing seeing the humour in technician portrayal of mere weather.

Hmm, apart from humour, chennai's heat is most vulnerable. Lucky ones are those who live in ground floor. Now that I live in first floor with no houses on top of my roof, the heat gladly flows down straight into our living area. Much worse is the nights, ah it becomes so unbearable, I usually become nothing but sulkier.

And funny part is every year the weather reports say, the temperature is like never before in the history. So everyyear the world is getting affected and that calls for some serious thinking about GLOBAL WARMING and every soul in this earth can make a huge difference if contributed together. 

Going back to basics won't hurt ....we must do some serious contribution to make the world a better place to live for our own sakes and for our next generation sakes too.
I have taken vow to use petrol, water and electricity wisely on my part.....and Yes I'll stick to my commitment on that vow.

Long live the world with prosperity!
