Recycle Bin: Heights of Tolerance and forgiving nature

Ever wondered how many times you may have deleted some file from the PC and then realised it was a mistake and recovered it back "As-Is" from the recycle bin.

Ever wondered what chaos and panic would set in had the recycle bin not allowed you to recover the file completely but allows only to recover partly and that too in a form that would be beyond your understanding to find the missing piece!!

If this has made you think, let me take you to life of humans now..
In our daily life, we keep meeting new people or same people again and again.
We have many interpersonal conversations and gestures that leave a lasting impression on the person with whom we communicate.

Humans display a wide variety of emotions and connect with different people with varying levels of emotional vibrations.

Let me just touch upon one emotion: Anger
When we are angry, we tend to let our words speak sharper than action of swords.
In that emotional state, seldom does wisdom prevail and we may say things which we never wanted to.
Once it cools off, we would probably apologise and get on with business.

Would the person who was at receiving end of your ire be forgiving and tolerant and just move on.
Maybe and Maybe not.

However great a person maybe , somewhere those sharp words would lurk around within the soul unknowingly.
With multiple transactions/conversations, these little lurking things can assume monstrous proportions and change the relationship for ever.

Now consider our good friend Recycle Bin again.
Whatever you dump on it, if you want to take it back, recycle bin allows you to and wipes off everything from its memory. It doesnt want to remember any bad past.
It keeps continuing his good gesture day in and day out. It does all this to preserve the relationship you have with recycle bin.

And the so called "humans" keep exploiting the good natured tolerant and forgiving Recycle Bin.

Think about it!!!

    recycle bin will allow you to take things back ,but it is throwing out whatever is inside it with same force for keeping itself clean ..not deleting but restoring.... :)
