The Invitation

The Invitation

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for,
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.

It doesn't interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool
for love, for your dreams,
for the adventure of being alive.

Much have I written...

, , ,



Much have I written of the sky
of the sea,wind and mountains;
much have I written of life,
of death,sorrow and profit;
Much.

And I shall still write of the sky,
of the sea,wind and birds;
of life,death and love
that bestow hope and belief
that help men climb
from the valley of despair
and let life be drenched in colour.

--- Ajip Rosidi

Without Being...

without being black
would you be white

without being white
would you be black

without colors
would you create colors

without creation
would you make choices

without choices
what would you do.

Thin gin. We

Oxymorons...

Is it good if a vacuum really sucks?
Why is the third hand on the watch called the second hand?
If a word is misspelled in the dictionary, how would we ever know?
If Webster wrote the first dictionary, where did he find the words?
Why do we say something is out of whack? What is a whack?

What the F##K? - Hilarious!!

I feel sad when you use the word "fuck". What to do?
It is one of the most beautiful words, English language should be proud of it.
I dont think any other language has any such beautiful words.

Websites for the Weekend

, , , ...



I have taken a couple of weeks break from work in order to paint a few Landscapes. While I wait for the paint to dry out on the canvas I invariably reach for my Laptop and surf around the web. And I have stumbled upon some incredibly creative,fun & educative websites in the process.What with all those increasingly interactive and user friendly websites, you can spend hours without even realizing it.

For this weekend, if you have plenty of time on your hands then visits to the "Mini-Mizer" and "Universcale" sites will keep you entertained & informed. The links to these sites can be found at the bottom of this post.

At the Mini-Mizer site you can have fun creating your avatars and sharing it with friends & family.

The Universcale site - by Nikon - is an incredible place where you can learn about the scale of the universe we are living in - both at Nano & Macro levels. This site is a Must-Visit one.

The above avatar of mine was created on the Mini-Mizer site.

Have a great interactive weekend!!!

Life Lessons - George Carlin

I was in my mother’s belly as she sat in the waiting room of the abortionist’s office. Dr. Sunshine was his code name. I was fifty feet from the drainpipe, and she saw a painting on the wall that reminded her of her mother, who had recently died. She took that as a sign to have the baby. That’s what I call luck.
