[QUORA]Ditch photo editors with the following tips on taking a good picture

Before pushing that button, freeze into position, and take your eyes for a walk around the margins of the image in the viewfinder. That will help you re-calibrate in case someone's arm was out of the picture, or the head of that cool statue. We tend to focus on the center of our subject, forgetting about the rest of the image.

[QUORA]Why we should live even if no one cares about us?

These days I'm also going through a similar phase in my life. My circumstances are worse to an extent that  even if I die today nobody will care. My death won't matter to even a single person in this entire universe. To the people I know my death will be like just another event. So what if nobody cares. Should you stop living just for the fact that nobody cares? The answer is "No" you should not stop living your life for any reason in this world. Now lets come to why?    Just for these simple reasons:

Greek Mythology names and their counterparts from Indian Mythology

Today many of Hollywood's hit action flicks are Mythology movies. This movies show many ferocious mythical creatures and dieties which spikes our interest to know more about them. So,here are some of the most famous Mythology gods of Greek myths and their parallels from Indian Mythology. We start with  Zeus  . Zeus etymologically comes from  deus  , which is a Sanskrit cognate of  Dyaus.  Now, Dyaus is a Rig Vedic god of daylight sky. Dyaus is also considered as an aspect of  Indra.  Meanwhile, Roman  Jupiter , is Dyaus + Pitar (father of daylight sky).

[QUORA}Does Mahabharata tell us that the end is more important than the means?

This question is fantastic. And Mahabharata is truly an ocean of wisdom if we wish to ask such a question.  My answer is - The end may or may not justify the means. The best approach therefore, is to analyse for yourself and decide. In each situation. There is no one answer that will fit every situation!  Therefore, I am going to try and make arguments from both sides. Let's see!  Let us take a few instances from the epic -  1. Trying to avoid the war as far as possible -  Pandavas   do all they can, to avoid the war.   Yudhishthir   is very pragmatic. He knows by   Dharma   (Morality / Righteousness. There isn't an exact equivalent for the word in English) , he should be the king. Yet, his first reaction is not to go to war for the same. He negotiates, understands, talks, argues and tries everything else.
