My Trip to Coorg Karnataka


The Scotland of India, Coorg is named rightly because of the scenic beauty and greenery of this place which is bewitching. This place does not have many historical places or high peaks surrounding it. But the pure unpolluted air here and the untrimmed random growth of trees and shrubs keeps you absorbed. You just want to sit and see the different birds singing and hopping from one tree to another. I could not stop myself from whistling with the whistling bird known as malabar hill thrush. Then we went to Raja Seat from where we had the full view of this small suburb. All green not much populated. Simple life of people attracts you. But the place was full with tourists. We stayed at Mahindra Resort. Hats off to the management for maintaining such vast area
Where you can see different type of life thriving. Early in the morning you are woken by the beautiful chirping of the birds. You cannot remain without going out in the balcony and search for the birds.
Then we went to Abbey Falls, mesmerising beauty of Coorg. You cant but held captive by the cascading water. Evening we spent enjoying different activities and dancing organised by the resort management. This was a powerful package involving sight seeing, bird watching and of course trailing the green trails.
Trailing, dancing, abbey falls, chirping birds, whistling sounds,tourists, Scotland of India.

Life of a traveller

During my last six or seven years, I am constantly on heels. Travelling from this place to that. My two sons are living in different places. I keep on shifting willingly from one place to another. Apart from this I have my own house which I maintain by going there frequently. And also I am very fond of going to different places and enjoy sightseeing. So my plight can be well imagined.  From a simple house woman I have turned into a traveller and frankly speaking I love my life this way. I love to travel. Before going to some place I just pack my bags without hastle as the travelling needs list is on my finger tips. It takes only half an our for me to get ready for a week's travel. Travelling has become a part of my life. While travelling I keep on jotting the moments spent at places along with my feelings infused in those moments. I keep on writing and enjoy all my trips. I have a very good company of my sister's . We match each other's feelings, thoughts, dressing sense, eating habits, and above all the temperament which is most important. Lately I had two memorable  trips with my son's family. I blessed him many times for giving me such blissful moments as at this age I don't want anything else apart from going to a place and enjoying their company.

Strong Will and Trust In God

My Two Eyes are just like two people who are always so vigilant to help me. I am so dependent on my two eyes. I would not be able to see the world properly without them . I can not enjoy the beauty of nature which I love the most.. I wont be able to go places and travel alone. I wont be able to have the full function of my brain because my eyes help me to see and observe everything. I wont be able to walk properly and without help. I salute to the people who perform marvels in their life without these two guards.  I have seen people differently abled  performing amazingly in their desired fields. They live alone and many of them  have reached great heights. They have proved that nothing is impossible. They are an example to the saying which goes that  if we have a strong urge to do something and we strive hard to achieve that, God himself comes to help us fulfil our dream. No obstacle can block your way. Hard work in right direction and trust in God is must. Never believe in the negative thinking. Use this negative thinking to achieve something positive. Negative affirmations lead to negative and positive affirmations lead to positive. The book " The Secret" written by  Rhonda Byrne, says that this universe is like a genie and fulfills your wish what ever you say. If you are negative , you will be surrounded by everything negative and if you think positive and trust that, everything positive will happen. So to do great things in life you must have a firm trust in you and a positive will to do that  and God will be with you.

Review

The beautiful book " flirting with italian" by Liz fielding is very decently built up story. There is love which grows in a very mature way. And above all the story of Lusia and Randall is very  beautifully built. I liked the main characters Matteo and Sarah and felt related to them. Their feelings are captured in a realistic way. You feel as if you have met them . Gone through the same experience. Overall a great story, proceeded  very  spotaneously.

Our Kids Our Responsibility


  Teach your kids to be responsible and honest. Donot entertain even the smallest lie. Don't think that they are too small to understand anything. They are very smart. They observe and understand everything and use their brain very appropriately. Even the parents should abstain from telling lies because that way they are teaching their kids to be the same. All children lookup to their parents and they are their role models. So be very careful about what you say and what you do.
   When they are over one year of age they start understanding many things like putting things in proper place. Taking care of their belongings. As they keep on growing doing small jobs should be natural to them.
   We should guide them towards human relation values. Love and respect towards their elders. Leading a humble life devoid of any ego. Being selfless but full of self esteem. Being humble but strong from inside to face the different phases of life. Not giving up easily. Stretching up to face life in totality.
    We should guide them to have the value of time and money along with self control and patience. To master  anger and channelling this energy towards constructive work. Towards making your mind strong powerful and body healthy. To have envy not jealousy.
   Develop in them the habbit of eating healthy food. Eating junk makes the mind and body junkyard. When you eat good healthy but simple food your body responds very well and mind is used in thinking good thoughts.
    Earn well but don't over spend. Invest your money prodigiously. Teach your kids the value of hard work in every field of life as hard work is required to maintain everything in life. It includes studies, love and respect for every one. Maintaining good relations and to be responsible and honest. Our kids are our responsibility.

About Books and life

Books
Books are really our life line. They are our best friends in the true sense. I love reading good books. Spiritual books and novels. Whenever I get a good book to read i am totally engrossed in it. I relate myself to the characters of the book. I feel for them
 I cry with them and also laugh and enjoy  their company. Sometime the processing is so engrossing that it keeps me occupied for days together. Many books are based on true life stories. But I feel that every novel has a little bit of writer in it because you can't write a good book unless you put your heart and soul into it. Unless you become the main protagonist of the story you are developing into a book. So when a story touches me I go through the life story of the writer also and surprisingly many time I find something of the writer into it. These books have always helped me whenever I am sad , depressed and lonely in life. They help me to fight the low time and boost up my spirit. I feel I am in the company of a very good friend when I am busy reading.

My Love of Life


My Love of Life.
Everybody in their lifetime falls in love. Oh please dont narrow your eyes and look at me questeningly. Yes i love . I love travelling to different places. I love visiting a place and  explore it completely. I just want to pack my  bag and run off. When I reach a destination I just don't sit there and pass my time reading or enjoying the stay but I just start quenching my thirst of seeing each and every place worth seeing there. I go through every place' history and enjoy every momemt that I spend there.
Recently along with my sisters I visited Udaipur. Although we stayed there for three day but that was not sufficient. Many  sights near udaipur are worth visiting and seeing. We visited Kumbhalgarh, Huldighati, Chetak point, Ranakpur temple, and also Dilwara temples of Mount Abu. I am mesmerised by construction of temples in  India. I like to visit temples out of love for the sheer beauty of indian architecture.  I liked udaipur for its palaces and temples ,T he Monsoon palace and City palace. Besides, the climate was awesome. We enjoyed each and every momemt spent there. I liked lakes also. Fatahsagar lake and Pichola Lake in Udaipur and Niki lake in Mount Abu.
