the light

The light above your head, watches you everyday.

lighting your day, night and life.

Cause even when it rains outside
There is light
Even when you cry all night
Your alright
Even when you loose your way
You'll get through
Cause there is someone watching over you

~ Yolanda Bloom

The Face of a Man

A man finds room in the few square inches of his face for the traits of all his ancestors; for the expression of all his history, and his wants.  ~Ralph Waldo Emerson, Conduct of Life

A very good friend and a gentleman of the rare types,in a picture am proud of.

Sister..!!!!

Hide and seek behind a cloud

A rainbow laughs aloud

The sun shines oh so proud

Because of you ~

You’re my joy and my song

My whole life long

Together we belong

I still have you ~

My sister…my beautiful sister

You’re my best friend

Until the end

~ excerpts of a poem i found while surfing google.

Lo behold People..!!! My elder-kid sister :)

The childhood dreams

I call this post the childhood dreams because the idea of posting this picture cam after I had a dream where I saw myself back as a child 

Bachpan Ke Dukh Bhi Kitney Achchay Hotey They
Tab Tau Sirf Khiloney Toota Kartey They

Woh Khushi Bhi Janey Kaisi Khushi Thi
Titlee Ke Par Noch Kay Oochla Kartey They

Paon Mar Ke Khud Barish Ke Paani Mein
Apni Nao Aap Dobuyaa Kartey They

Ab Socho Tau Chot Si Parti Hay Dil Par
Aap Bana Ke Aap Gharondey Tora Kartey They

Ab Tau Ik Aansoo'n Bhi Ruswa Kar Jata Hai
Bachpan Main Tau Jee Bhar Ke Ro Liya Kartey They.......

The shortest distance between two people is a SMILE :)

A smile is a facial expression formed by flexing the muscles near both ends of the mouth. The smile can also be found around the eyes. Among humans, it is an expression denoting pleasure, joy, happiness, or amusement, but can also be an involuntary expression of anxiety, in which case it is known as a grimace. Smiling is something that is understood by everyone despite culture, race, or religion; it is internationally known. Cross-cultural studies have shown that smiling is a means of communicating emotions throughout the world.

While most often, smiling is perceived as a positive emotion, there are many countries that perceive smiling as a negative expression and consider it unwelcoming. Too much smiling can be viewed as a sign of shallowness or dishonesty.The Japanese may smile when they are confused or angry. In other parts of Asia, people may smile when they are embarrassed. Some people may smile at others to indicate a friendly greeting. A smile may be reserved for close friends and family members. Many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even suspicious behavior. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don't smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover emotional pain or embarrassment. Vietnamese people may tell the sad story of how they had to leave their country but end the story with a smile.

Cheers.. and dont forget to smile :)

Me

People are like stained-glass windows.

They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,

but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed

only if there is a light from within.

- Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

An attempt in clicking myself.

It was hard not laugh at myself :D :D :D

Chai... Chai garam...!!!

In the early 1820s, the British East India Company began large-scale production of tea in Assam, India, of a tea variety traditionally brewed by the Singpho tribe. In 1826, the British East India Company took over the region from the Ahom kings through the Yandaboo Treaty. In 1837, the first English tea garden was established at Chabua in Upper Assam; in 1840, the Assam Tea Company began the commercial production of tea in the region, run by indentured servitude of the local inhabitants. Beginning in the 1850s, the tea industry rapidly expanded, consuming vast tracts of land for tea plantations. By the turn of the century, Assam became the leading tea producing region in the world

This is a cup of Hot Chai I had on my maiden train journey from Mysore :)

The fortune teller.

Fortune telling in India can be seen in various forms.

based on sun/moon signs, Palm reading, parrot astrology and the latest involving computers as well.

Shreya believes that Fortune telling for those who believe in it well and good but hard work is what she believes.

For a guy like me who reads all the 12 horoscope's daily prediction to make sure my the day on the overall goes good *pun intended*

 I feel, fortune smiles..when the fortune teller smiles :)

Sleeping beauty

Sleeping Beauty (French: La Belle au bois dormant, "The Beauty sleeping in the wood") by Charles Perrault or Little Briar Rose (German: Dornröschen) by the Brothers Grimm is a classic fairytale involving a beautiful princess called Aurora, enchantment, and a handsome prince. It is the first in the set published in 1697 by Charles Perrault.

A woman is said to look most beautiful when she is asleep...!!!
Some believe its because she dreams about the man she loves.. While Other believe that how she connects with herself  and the rest think that its because she is finally at peace..!!
What I believe is that every woman is beautiful. She knows it but she wants to be convinced of this fact. She wants to feel beautiful rather just said told she is. And every time she sleeps, she realizes a small part of her beauty and that does the magic  :)

The book seller of Shivajinagar..!!!
