Passwords

I have been wondering how people manage to remember so many passwords.. In this digitised world, you have a login and password for everything. At office there is a password to log on to ur comp, then one to log on to your emails. And, now n number of social networks, passwords to each one of them, and yes to add on here comes, the blog... (Of course u can keep same passwords for all but that not a good idea for security reasons) Its been just an hour that i created a new id for this blog and guess wat - I FORGOT MY PASSWORDS
Here i wanted to post another blog about wat happened yesterday and i realise, i forgot my passwords. The account was new as well and i just could not remember wat i gave. Though i kind of remembered wat it was but still i could not log on..
God bless!!! the person, who thought of having forget password as an option.. and one more blessing to the one who thought of asking people to give alternative IDs. There i used this option and I received a mail on my alternative / secondary mail id. I quickly went throough it and noticed that the password is the same as i was feeding in.... Then my eyes went on the username.... after seeing it all i can do was curse myself for being so careless. I missed the last letter of my sur name.. my id is a combo of my firstname and surname.
I felt like hitting myself at that moment, but then now i am just smiling. I am smiling as to how careless i could be??? Had I noticed that mistake earlier, I cud have saved so much of time, and written what I wanted...
But then lets look at the brighter side.... had i not been so careless... then this post would ve never been typed... now thats wat i call being optimistic :-)
