Why we always want to prove our point ?

Why we always want to prove our point ?

As I was driving down to my office. This question raised in my mind. We always tend to be assertive. I, being aggressive in nature, always tries to prove my point. Yes, I admit , I try to prove my point.

As I was driving in my car, I always try to overtake other vehicles ( may be we all do it ). I feel happy about it when I just zoom ahead them. Out of 100 times, 95 times we take a small or big risks with our lives or the others'. The chances of getting knocked down by other vehicles or you knocking some other vehicles are quite high.

Just when you find some more aggressive guy whom you overtook tries to get pass you. We tend to become better drivers. We think we can just zoom ahead no matter how much traffic we are into. To prove our point , we drive rash. We drive at high speed. Its quite immature behaviour. We are trying to prove a point on such a silly thing. Just on a pessimistic side, we meet a small accident where you damaged your headlight of your car or a small dent on it ( which you hate to see it ). We might have proved our point at the cost of such a damage but is it worth. We will spend a few bucks to repair the car and more importantly waste a couple of hours and energy in getting it repaired.

Sometimes its not at all important to prove your point everytime. We waste a lot of our precious energy in it. It may not be worth , at times to prove your point. One has to learn to be patient even if one may not feel like being it.

Whats New On Yahoo Mail

Well yesterday ( 31-Aug-06 ) as I was checking my yahoo mail. I saw a small little surprise. It was a cool new feature on yahoo mail. The mails were expandable right at the pane without opening the mail actually. Its quite similiar to treeview but without child nodes. The mail opened in new format quite quickly. Surely yahoo users will like this feature. I guess it is in testing stage as when I reopened it in the evening, the feature was not available. I am really looking forward to this cool new feature.

Update :

I have figured it out why its happening. It happens in Firefox extension. It only supports Mozilla Firefox browser. This cool extension has been developed by Viamatic. This extension converts Yahoo! Mail into Ajax enabled web account.

Firefox user can install the extension from here.
