Few Funny Pictures, I managed to click!

Tried taking a bag from the girl, thought would be too much to carry home

Manjith tried to catch the falling man!!!

One picture most of the girls were clicking with, wondered what, and laughing to myself, I also stood beside this poster. Not a bad idea, to show this to my man and declare something!!! Ofcourse, to pull him at times! Jus Kidding!

Always had a wooden tortoise charm sitting on my laptop which my overseas collegue gifted me, I thought, this time, I would move on with some thing new, and found this little cute things hanging around on my table!!!

Me and My Snowman!

Tried this snow man but started to shiver and ran inside on day one

Finally managed to make another snow man the next day ,and cheered myself by taking a picture with him, before he melted away!!!

Happy ThanksGiving

I am amazed to find this concept of thanks giving celebrated Nation wide in America today. What an inspirational day it is ? How many of us pause for a moment in our lives to look back and thank all the people who brought in a change in our lives? I usually do not believe in celebrating Friendship day, Valentines day, Fathers day and other concepts Archies and other marketers brought in to India in the recent past. I am wondering why the Thanks Giving day had not made popular so far? Is or is not thanks giving a continuous process in our lives. Anyway, what ever may be the argument, I today, had a chance to recall to myself, about all the people who made that small difference to me. I do not want to list them here, and in the process miss someone inadvertently and regret later.
I thank God for this beautiful life, a life well balanced with ups and downs, and for making the person I am. Counting my blessings and thanking god, for the troubles had shown my courage, pain and suffering had increased my inner strength, enduring badness had shown me righteousness, good things and good people inspired me and thanks to all those people who have enriched my experiences and knowledge, wisdom and truth, tranquility and inner peace, friendship and beautiful relationships, a purpose and vision in life to go forward.
Thank You - One word that my english teacher taught me to use as much as you can and when ever necessary, for appreciation strengthens people's relationships and Gratitude is the rightful way to touch a person's soul. Thank you for reading this too!

Why Mumbai and Why Taj? Time for Homeland Security to be strong

In the wake of the ongoing financial crisis across the globe, India is able to keep proclaiming that we had strong fundamentals, and our banking and financial business houses are stable irrespective of the ripple effect of the economy. Mumbai, the financial capital of India, portrayed a brave picture in spite of the dynamics at Dallal Street. A country whose GDP is steadily increasing and is also able to bring down the inflation to single digit in the recent past, a country which stood tall sending Chandrayan mission to Moon, and who vibrantly displayed the nuclear strength and wealth of our trio forces including army, navy and air force is causing a concern to our neighbours and world nations. India's intellectual brilliance and dependency of the world nations on Indian human potential is one way making it a super power quickly. All we now need are the strong politicians who brings in the required visibility for India, why we should not be called a developed Nation?
Less than a week after Ambika Soni, the Tourism Minister, invited the world to visit India, a hub of spiritual enlightenment and harmonious destination for the troubled world, a hit on the Taj Hotel is quick blow on our tourisim aspirations. In the couple of times, I had the opportunity I had to visit Taj in Mumbai, I found the place is the best destination for foreign tourist, businessmen and industrialists and also for politicians and scientists. Very elegant and poised Taj welcomed guests abroad to make them feel at home. Staying in Fariyaz in Colaba, I took few beautiful walks across the marine drive shore line watching the elegance of the place and the tourist attraction with British chariots entertaining guests.
The process of recovery is long and painful after the terror attacks. It is not easy as said to bring back normalcy. It takes lot more efforts to attract tourists and welcome people, if the finest of hotels are themselves not safe for stay, where else could the world go?. Delhi attacks around Diwali, Goa's ongoing sham of rapes and murders, burning of churches in Orissa, Kerala and Karnataka effecting the sentiments of people, Gujarat riots, Hyderbad attacks, Lucknow and Varanasi temple blasts, and now the Mumbai attacks, all seems to be in a pattern that is aimed to curtail the growth of a Nation. One side Nature is creating havoc with Bihar and Orissa floods and the other side this man-made intimidation is costing us more.
Time to put an end to this unwanted human suffering, create a safe place to live, raise the banners of peace high, and take serious measures aiming at National Security. No concessions to be made to combat terrorism and punish those involved seriously to put an end to this worst game.
