Rafa or FedEx ??? Its Rafa!!!

Tennis is one of the most watched sport.. As its a individual sport , the rivalry is exemplified on and off court.
Tennis has a history of great rivalry , Rod Laver and John McEnore, Agassi and Sampras and now its Rafal Nadal(the great Rafa) and the Roger Federer (FedEx)..
Its always fun and exciting to watch two great rivals fight for glory in any sport.. But in tennis more Exciting as its between individuals, as no one to blame for the loss.. unlike in team games, if one makes a mistake, the team which is ahead losses its edge..
I have always enjoyed watching the match in which Nadal plays, especially when he plays against FedEx.. 
I would like to rate Rafa a step ahead of his rival, as he brings in the energy and excitement in the match by running around and making those punches in air and celebrations when he wins a hard fought point.. I would not like to take away any shine from the FedEx, his plays exuberantly, a real class act, who just Showcases his game with ease and calmness..  :D 
Each one us, would always like to appreciate the People who are beyond our reach and in comparison  say "oh dude chuck him da, he is a class, " (its a most general conception) not every body would be inspired to achieve the feat and also be afraid of facing him. when the occasion comes, we would have already been smashed by his personality and eventually lose and say "I Lost to the best.. "  :P
But Rafa just runs around, shouts, celebrates, has that sincerity in the face to beat the best and be the best and never say die attitude, which just inspires me..not only me just every body(i guess).. I think even the least capable person can get inspired by Nadal, not be lost by rivals personality.. He is also a class act, if he wasn't a class act how is that he would defeat other classical people, its just that he doesn't showcase that part of him.. :)
Not only that Rafa has taken lesser no of years to achieve the greatest feat on earth in tennis, that is the career Grand slam.. than compared to other greats in the list, it shows he is also one of the classical people of tennis..:D :) 
I wish after reading this, all my rivals would sway their loyalties towards the Hero Nadal ;) :P

Its all in the name!!!

 Its a well known saying or quote that Face is the index of the mind. I feel that name is an index of a person. Its by our name that a person is always remembered and recognized.

Unlike we Indians, people around the world, who do the naming of the child is done as soon as its born, in ours we have a certain traditions where the a child is named in the naming ceremony, taking into consideration the date, the time the child was born or named after there grand parents or ancestors in order to keep the family legacy going !!!!  

As we grow up we change in all the regards with the influence of the society and friends, in the mean time we would have been given hell a lot of names and naming ceremonies would have happened :P. We would be given names based on our appearance or the place we come from, community we come from and on what not!!! Its very strange to be named again and again, but its very much true and have accepted it in our life.

It so happened I had been to a reunion, and was just busy meeting all the friends, one among them just came to me and said your Prathap Shoroff right???? I was in complete shock!!, as I didn't recognize that person and secondly I was called by my complete name...!! After few more minutes of discussion with that person I just realized who that was only by that persons name, not by the face, that person was my class mate in 3rd standard!!!

Many such incidents have happened in my life where people recognized me by my face unlike me who recognizes them by their name only (most of the times though).

Today we see everything happening in terms of the Name . Say fights, unions, investments, job, etc.. Everything is associated with a name and branded by its name..

"NAME IS THE IDENTITY"
