All in the name of hunger!
A rattled and guilty Samira was sitting under a bridge while nibbling at the crust with eyes wandering 360 degrees.
He was chewing ruthlessly to swallow the crushed contents in his mouth. Hunger made him steal a loaf from a bakery. Now he feared the consequences, but with no pennies to spare he did not think twice over again.
While dusting off the crumbs from his bare chest, and

The man is hungry for success, happiness and peace of mind.
Thus, when he sees the light at a distance, which is a Sunset. It seems like a halo thus raising his hope for the time to come!
Aha! The power of HOPE!
Mantra for today: “Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul And sings the tune without the words And never stops at all.” ― Emily Dickinson

A Gnome named Ruch
Honestly, I had no clue which fairy tale creature I would like to be unless I searched for it and voila! There is a solution for every darn thing...The Internet led me to a fairy tale creature quiz.
After answering about ten questions, I was told that I should be a Gnome since I am as bright and active as this creature. Gnomes are wise and hand crafty, and supposedly I also have that

Review of Beloo Mehra's book, The Thinking Indian
Purchase Link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00W...
Beloo Mehra, the author of, "The Thinking Indian", has touched many sensitive topics such as Spirituality, Culture, Hinduism and discussed them very exquisitely via the teachings of Sri Aurobindo's Essays. Thus, giving justice to the title of her book.
This yogi who breathed his last in

Trees of all Shapes and Sizes exist on our beautiful planet. As we go about doing our business, we glance at their perfect imperfections while inhaling the oxygen they exhale.
The give and take relationship has existed for decades without any expectations!
Mantra for today: “I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.”
― Bruce Lee

The Return...
Ira was staring beyond the window into those clouds that were white yet had so much to exhibit. Her eyes became moist followed by a parched throat while viewing.
"Excuse me!" came a gentle tap
Precipitously turned to her co-passenger who requested her to shut the window.
"Not Yet," she responded sternly, "I want the rays of the sun to enliven and motivate me to return home with good spirits

Mesothelioma and it's Awareness
In today's competitive world, there are only a few words that can make anybody's life come to a screeching halt.
Cancer is one such word.
Although sometimes it feels as if a flight attendant is offering, "Can sir" but I wish it were that simple.

Today I complete a century in WW.
Credit no doubt goes to my readers, followers and blogger friends who have also joined in the fun with their exquisite clicks.
This journey started with a special friend, Cynthia, who inspired me to look beyond words. Her Wordless Wednesday's made me look outside my window, appreciate the flowers, trees, passersby and also find beauty in inanimate objects!
