About meI am glad i have to write this and not my friends or relatives. But unfortunately with blogs ,my near and dear can post their comments.And i will end up looking pretty silly if my mother posts a msg contrary to what i say about myself. Lets just say the topic is subjective. Posted by gayathri eswar on 06:37 PM

Did U Know
Increasingly, chemicals in cosmetics, fragrances & cleaners are being blamed for a range of common office maladies, from headaches & dizziness to lethargy & loss of concentration. In offices where people are packed together & air conditioning takes the place of an open window, it is the chemicals in perfumes, deodrants, hairsprays & other personal products that are most often to blame. Multiple Chemical Sensitivities (MCS) syndrome is a catch all term that includes the sensitivity to manufactured fragrances . MCS has also been linked to dizziness, depression & hypertension.
The Canadian city of Halifax has become the first major center in North America to prohibit the wearing or all cosmetic fragrances - from Giorgio Armani to lavender soap - in most indoor public places, including municipal offices, libraries, hospitals, courts , classrooms & buses. Others like Santa Cruz in US, have implemented partial fragrance free policies.

Insult : To the one who insults, they are like words written on sand & to the insulted, they are like words etched on a rock.
And words of encouragement or appreciation? Many a times, it can shape the receiver's future. And turn the rock, into a sculptor.
Words are powerful weapons..
PS : And so an encouraging comment always helps, in any blog

The Tied Black Cat
Long long ago, an old sage used to worship an idol under a banyan tree. After his prayers, he used to offer milk to the idol. Suddenly one day, much to his distress, a black cat came in that area and, attempted to drink the milk, before he could offer it to God. Therefore, each morning before beginning his prayers, he would search for the cat, and tie it to a nearby tree. After his death, the nearby villagers decide to continue the worship of the idol and years later, even a temple was built.

But every morning the villagers would not begin the prayers before searching for a black cat and tying it the nearby tree. And if they couldnt find a black cat to tie, the temple would remain closed on that day.

PS : one day a girl took pity on the tied, mewing cat and offered it milk from her house. She got a thrashing from her parents for offering milk to the cat, before the prayers could be completed. But atlast, I think, God drank the milk, which the devotees wanted to offer .

The waves & the rocks

The waves come, some gentle , some with a roar
Full of life, hope and cheer, towards the shore
But the hard rocks stands, on their way
and in a second, they splash and become mere spray
And they withdraw meekly, back to the bay
Can i learn a lesson from that today?

But the waves dont give up, do they?
And years later, as sand, the rocks lay.
Oh the waves seem to have won their way.
Consistent efforts, do seem to pay
The immediate results - don't always count
Let the adversary's strength, not intimidate you,
Losing the battle need not mean, losing the war
Never ever give up, they seem to say
PS :Thanks for reading this blog and hope you have a wonderful day,
And SweetNothings, think you missed the last para yesterday
