Nature vs Man

On my way to Chicago I was struck by the scenic view on sky. Tried to capture them with my amateur skills in photography but i like it. Amazes me how pollution is harmful but at the same time a sheer delight to the eyes of beauty.

The picture below reminds me of  " picture is worth a thousand words"

 It says: Avoid Rear End Colisions. Don't Tail gate.



Excerpts from Brahmvihari Swami

Change your attitude:
Out of syllabus is not the point, the point is, are you ready to ace the test or flunk it. Go out in world like Great Krishna not Poor Arjun.

Believe in yourself:
What faith can do in the mind of darkness, nothing can do. Learn to accept the things you cannot choose in life.

Go with the idea, what can I give. If you can’t give, at least forgive:
Be a smile, a source of joy for someone for some time. Do some good to others to feel good.

As love can be expressed in various ways, so is Faith:
You need phone, Email, text, hug, reunions to express love with dear ones. All you need to express faith in almighty is to acknowledge his presence.

First Meeting

Is it the excitement to

 see You and  meet You.

Or

Is it the nervousness to

be near  you and  interact with You.

Or

Is it the desire to

end the anxiety and misery.

Or

Is it the fear to

Get rejected and loose You.

O Dear, Please come by

And impart solace to the restless mind.

For I know that its You

Who is all over my mind for now.

Let me hear you say Yes!

Are we alright?

We exchanged glances

when you came to restaurant the other day

But there was something that i had to say

I was thinking if

We just walked down the street

and asked your hand to hold me forever

would you let me down?

We do have conflicts of

Of uncommon interests, faith and lifestyle

But, Baby if you can see these differences are relative

Together we can make it work

I know i'm persuasive and impulsive

However, my decision for you is not a click!

It’s the way I feel with You

That makes me feel together we can do it

Why should we go by the protocols

Let's stop dragging it and

Do it our own way.

Your Composure

My Impulse

When blended in the holy ceremony

It'd be too much for our parents to believe

Our Mummies crying on the side

Our Daddies rejoicing with pride.

I know it is way beyond

the banal custom

To see a girl asking a boy!

But Hey! All I want to say is

I would not like to let you go.

So if you are ready to open up

If you're ready to give

If you're ready for us

Let me hear you say that

You have thought enough to say

Yes I will!

Street names

Gay Street! Are we out of names for street???

Atwater St. What about at air or at land???

Seriously! There is a place called Beer.
