Uljha hua earhead

Now a days the airline travel makes you richer with earheads. These earheads are of different companies and different style. I have a good collection, like the ones from kingfisher airlines the red ones(the big large ones which cover your entire ear) to the smaller black dots(majorly given by Indian airlines and Jet airways).

I am using my laptop bag as a dumping ground for all these earheads collected in every month air travel. Initially started distributing them as gifts to all my relatives/kids, but when the supply overflowed, monthly dumping them in my store room back in Hyderabad became a routine(monthly, just like groceries)

Today I was travelling from Bhopal to Hyderabad in Jet airways, I thought of listening some old music while on travel(thanks to Kingfisher airlines, I am addicted now to watch a television/movie or read some of my collections stored in my 500GB hardisk in every flight) So, if I am travelling in flights where there is no TV, my official laptop becomes my TV.

I opened my laptop bag and found that there were 5 sets of earheads badly tangled in a web of wires. My urge to open the laptop and start listening to music was making me impatient to resolve the web.

I said myself to remain little relaxed(no art of living course taught me this) and then try.

After a slow and calmer self I started again and it took 16 minutes to solve and I had fresh 5 sets of earheads neatly kept on the seat.

I solved it the one which looked a behemonian task 16 minutes before.
Lesson learnt- life’s problem is that we are impatient, and solution is to be slow and calm.
