1=5 Life is Simple

Midsems are over
Huurrraahhh!!!!
Last night just after finishing my CS [computer science] practical exam
I went to movie with my friends from DareDevil's wing
[or rather it was already decided that i will go with them!]
it usually happens that I stay less in my wing [Zoro's] and enjoy my time there [DD]
so last night we were around 15 odd people
going through streets of Mumbai singing loudly
laughing on each others jokes
we went to IMAX Multiplex at Wadala
this place is really cool
it has world's Biggest Dome theater [or screen whatever they call it]
and we watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie in that HUGE dome theater
well,.... movie was FART and really boring to many of us
but we enjoyed the AC and cool crowd

with friends i enjoy and don't think too much
so whats this got to do with title 1=5 Life is Simple??
friends are not just for timepass
they not only make you happy, make you forget other things
they can make you THINK!!!


Shantanu is good friend of mine
he is in Hostel 2
[but Hostel3 Rocks!!!]
and we spend hours talking on numerous topics mostly non academic and non gossiping topics
and HE IS GOD, [meaning he is too good]
Day before yesterday we were talking on some arbit [arbitrary, anything random] topic
he suddenly asked me for a pen
i gave the one i usually carry in my pocket
and he wrote something on his hand
it was like this

1=5
what is this? is he mad??
2=25
nop looks like something more is coming
3=125
hmmm now there is one link 5, 25=5x5, 125= 5x5x5
4=625
Hahaha he is just writing powers of 5 so whats the big deal?
5=.....

he stopped
and asked me what should be written there
my maths is not that bad
i said its obvious 55 i.e. 5x5x5x5x5
no. tell me the answer YOU would WRITE there
i thought after seconds of calculations 3125
but as soon as i started saying THREE THOUSAND....
he simply wrote
5=1
what the hell??!! what is writing??!!
he looked at me and then pointed at the first equation he wrote
1=5
so when you come across 5 again
why bother finding some complex solution?
just write 5=1


LIFE IS SIMPLE. BUT WE MAKE IT COMPLICATED BY FINDING COMPLEX SOLUTIONS RATHER THAN USING SOME SIMPLE ONES
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH ONE IS MORE CORRECT
YOU HAVE TO APPLY ANY SOLUTION IN THE GIVEN TIME WITH EASE
LIFE IS NOT ALWAYS ABOUT RIGHT OR WRONG
ITS SIMPLER THAN THAT
BUT WE MAKE IT COMPLEX

Oh Man! HE REALLY IS GOD!!!
