look what coding did to me!

Life is like a code written in a programming language. Each person, a programmer, writing his/her own code. The logic applied by each one is unique. So is it in life.

Every moment equivalent to a line of code. Every choice, an "if-then-else" statement. (though it's not that simple in life! is it?) Every mistake, an error.
Every error in programming teaches you something new about programming, every mistake in life teaches you something new about life.

Different modules are written, everyday. When we learn something new, a new module is created. Everyday, older modules are called, executed, or altered. We analyze outputs of the modules. If they are not satisfactory, we either sit down to debug the code, or we start writing a new module.

Difference - while coding, errors can be corrected. Codes can be simulated. Situations in life can't be. So in life, we learn the hard way. :)

But life rewards you if you program it well, with rewards that are priceless, timeless. Whereas a code just rewards you with a "SYNTHESIS SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED" statement.

(but again, a good code leads to a good grade which leads to a good job which leads to a good life... im getting confused here... )
Are you getting the analogy? Cuz im not :(

Anyway, time for me to learn from my programming errors...

i seriously had never thought of "programming" in this way ever.This introspection is a good one!! philosophical indeed

thank u esha,.
if chhavi goenka's introspections werent philosophical.. she wudnt be chhavi goenka.. wud she?

hehe..
