How i spent 31st evening
Random – 250th post -A gratitude
GOD helps those who help themselves
GOD help those who help others
This is my thought
Every individual in his/her own capacity, with small acts of kindness contributes to the society. It is not about big charities. For a person shivering on a winter morning a cup of tea or a blanket to keep away the cold is worth in gold.
I would be compiling my HAIKU journey into an ebook soo and keep 50% of the proceedings from the sale to do my bit.
In this endeavor, i would be counting on my fellow bloggers, friends and like-minded people to help me.
Will keep posting on my progress

People look in the mirrors
Not to reflect themselves
But to see how the world wants to look at them
I do not look in mirrors
Apart from highlighting a few wrinkles
Or a few grey hair
It does not say much
I search for my reflection in the hearts of my loved ones
Why?
I know
Would love to know your point of view

Random-PEACE Reflection of their expressions
The cause of many sufferings
Happiness an illusion
Never stays for long
Never consistent
Always dependent
Still everyone is running
Trying to own it
BUDDHA did not go in search of happiness
Neither did Kabir or other great Saints
For them there was nothing to be achieved
With my limited observation
I could say
The common bond they shared
Is
The serenity and calm
The love and generosity
And
Their state of Inner PEACE

When life is amazing ?
When I am with me
Walking on the sand
Listening to the waves
Playing with my thoughts
I do not meditate
Or desire higher knowledge
I rest in my own Silence

Random – Tea
Desi chai of Jammu
While having my morning ☀️ tea, my thoughts took me to the world of this magic beverage.
The tiny leaves may be the only one (not sure) having so varied tastes and colors. And every tea lover has his/her unique taste and style of making. A “cup of tea” is our companion, supporting us in our good times or bad times.
For me it created a few very precious friendships and lots of Memories. 💕.
Today I thank the first planter of T😇.
Are we disposing of e-waste safely?
Every year GITEX shopper is held in Dubai and numerous other such events in other parts of the world to introduce latest technology in the market. People await eagerly for these mega events. The latest gadgets and IT related products are introduced at these events . All the vendors come with their special offers and discounts to attract the consumers. It is good to see all the technology advancement. The sales of mobiles are especially high, even I have bought products at times. Since my receny visit few questions are constantly arising in my mind, i.e.
Is the fast tech. and innovation at such a rapid pace good for the society?
Are we aware of hazardous effects of improper disposal of e-waste on environment ?.
It is mind-boggling that in a year’s time what you bought seems like obsolete. I am not against development but least the Tech companies and their distributors could do is :
1. Encourage the people to trade-in the gadgets which they are no longer using.
2. The products which are not usable or broken can be disposed off at a collection place within the exhibition centers.
3. These places are best for consumer awareness programmes about the harmful effects of storing at home the gadgets no longer in use.
4. A display highlighting what can be disposed of in garbage, what can be given for recycling or for proper disposal of e-waste would go a long way in raising the consumer awareness.
Just for an example take the case of batteries of mobile phones. Despite having knowledge a click away, how many of us are aware of harmful effects of unused batteries lying at home for long time?
“Lets be conscious about using the Technology and saving our environment by proper disposal of e-waste after enjoying it “
Random – The tradition of quality continues
It is amazing to visit the favorite place of one’s growing-up years. Some places have 2-3 generation of proud continuity with the quality and taste still the same. And most important the humality of the young owners who represent their grandfathers and fathers makes them more special
Experience of 50 + years of making samosas
Continuing the tradition of quality and good customer relationships
The old ways of making tea on clay chulas ( burners), a small shop on Jammu-Srinagar highway known for tea-mathi ( snack), a most stop for travelers
Shop of barfi (sweets) on Jammu-pathankot highway, the most authentic taste, continues to pull the travelers and locals alike
No one can beat the taste of Rajma-rice with pure ghee of this shop of 3 generations on Jammu-Srinagar highway
They still do the grinding of spices and chuteny in old ways with stone grinders
Continuing his father’s buisness this young man is proud of his father’s name. Most of us Jammuities who have known Girdhari have fond Memories. Despite having such a hugh customer base he would remember the individual tastes and used to address everyone “uncleji”
Maniram made Jana falls in Manali famous and must visit with his authentic and traditional Himachli food thali complete with brown local rice pudding.
RANDOM- SPELLBOUND
Most fortunate are the people who have an opportunity to travel and witness the nature at it’s full Glory.
Everytime I look at my treasure house of Memories I feel like shareing them with my friends 🙏🏻
