What is beauty?

Many a times, this discussion keeps coming up...what is beauty?!

Sadly, most of us end up only admiring admiring the physical part of it. But there are some "beautiful minds" out there too. But, alas..they are not so much "sought after."

Today, I stumbled upon this article. All the points are relevant in today's world and according to me, all these 'fairness' cream commercials should be just banned with immediate effect.

Quoting a line from the above article.."But perhaps we should also attempt, at least occasionally, to praise not just their looks, but also their brains,..." This immediately reminded me of this brilliant commercial

I think the ad says it all :)

Just WOW service from ICICI

Last week, I gave an ICICI cheque to another bank for payment of a loan. Initially, this cheque was given as a PDC,but later I took it back from the bank and deposited it again last week. This time though, I just had to add the A/C number on the payee column.

Next day, I received a call from ICICI inquiring about this cheque. I told them its a genuine cheque given by me only. The executive asked me if the same needs to be cleared or not and I replied in the affirmative. He told me that he has called as the cheque had two different inks used on the payee column and hence, it was a confirmation call!

I am super impressed by the alertness of this person :) How I wish that all ICICI executives were so proactive and alert.

THUMBS UP!
