Remembering the days 10 years back .. I was using all the latest version of software. I used to hack around the products and make sure they are cracked and available for me to use it.  I dont remember so far that I have earned few bucks out of it.  But now I feel guilty that I was not genuine.  Do you feel what I am trying to say?  Are my words pricking your mind?  Till 4-5 years back I was happily using pirated software.  No one in the world knows that I was using pirated software.  No one managed to ask a question to me that I was using a pirated software.

The Lord my Saviour put a thought in my mind.  It was kind of a question which raised in my mind.  The question was “Are you Genuine?”.  I have heard many people saying that Microsoft is a big company, they have lots of money and they are stealing money from people and it is not a problem if I use a pirated software.  But the actual issue is not with the question people ask.. rather the genuineness people need to maintain.

I started to use genuine software and I am kind of feeling confident about the thing I am using.  I feel I am genuine!  It is really a great experience to have a genuine software. We are earning a decent amount for our living.  We don’t steal clothes, we don’t steal food for living, we don’t steal money for spending rather we work hard to get all those.  The same holds good for getting a genuine software for your computer.

There are great products available for Low cost.  I am listing a few which will make your lives different from others.  For Sound editing instead of getting on a costly gear you can go in for Ardour, Reaper, Audacity .. it ranges from free to very low cost.  When it comes to video editing you can get premiere elements, Final cut express and so on … likewise for image editing you can use Paint.Net, Photoshop elements, gimp and so on .. there are lots of alternative for you to get genuine.  Control yourself from this kind of lust and make yourself clean and genuine.

Happy Computing!… hope this blog would have a small entry in your heart.  Leave me a comment if you want to change yourself.  God bless you!
