Einstein's Quote of the day

Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.

Its all how you take it

coming back from lake district this week, there was heavy traffic, yes I had a vacation, so did everybody and they do need to come back, definitely the roads got to be busy, my friend was driving and was a complaining about the traffic, so at that time a little thought came to me, read along....

If you are stuck in traffic;
Dont despair, there are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard privilege.

If you have a bad day at work;
think of the person who has been out of work for years.

Should you grieve the passing of another weekend;
Think of the person in dire straits, working twelve hours a day, 7 days a week to feed their children.

Should your car break down, leaving you miles away from assistance;
Think of the paraplegic who would love the opportunity to take a small walk.

Should you despair over a relationship gone bad;
think of the person who has never know or felt what its like to love or be loved in return.

Should you find yourself at a loss and pondering whats life all about;
Be grateful, there are some who didnt even live long enough to get such an opportunity.

Should you be any situation, you don't even have to think of somebody, its just enough that you accept the situation without any reaction to it and see what can be done, Once you accept the situation, there are a million ways to deal with it, if you don't accept, the the only way is to keep lamenting!

Have a good day.... Enjoy the moment.

Loneliness is not grief....

Loneliness...... am not talking here about any kind of seclution from life or a family break or dispute.... this is just about being alone out in the woods, look back nobody and look in front nobody...

A long narrow winding road
where lead me it would
Without a hint i could
Walk along the path full of wood

Broken trunks
Lively trunks
Fresh Grass, lovely ferns
The flowers Purple and yellow
Standing there with a bellow
Nobody around to follow
In tune with nature myself I Allow

Sends me, The gentle sounds of the River
and the birds and trees, into a Quiver
Of intermittent Rain drops dazzling down
in the slight peek of the sun at dawn
Am dripping wet, noting to fret
the winding paths, the disappearing peaks and curves
The only being there in valley all alone in loneliness
No reason to feel any illness

Oh what a joy, what a luxury
Just to be alone and all alone
Just with nature, inside let it be flown.


This week we had been to Lake district and had a full day for myself with nature and that too alone, what a wonderful time and place to be in alone, and the weather was raining, and a little bit rain and more rain, i was a bit irritated at moments not because I was enjoying the rain, but at moments i was not able to take my camera out for some good clicks, it was raining full day with a 10 minute break for the sun to show itself its there.

I did not even feel i walked some 16 kilometers up and down the hills.In all it was a enjoyable walk and time to be all alone and enjoy whats around.
