I Have Enough
And then, I have nature and art and poetry, and if that’s not enough, what is enough?””

Coffee break
Long long time ago,
This very special coffee time,
with a dear friend.
We had been planning to go to North End for having coffee-break over there, specially Fahmi always wanted to take me there, specially for the coffee-aroma that she loves so much, but we never could manage time, but suddenly, on that day, we just decided to go there! And it was great time with her, with all the enlightening things she always share! And it was her treat! 😊
Happy and grateful that we could get this coffee time together……
Life is beautiful!
Coffee and friends make the perfect blend.

The Wooden Bridge
This bridge will only take you halfway there
To those mysterious lands you long to see
Shel Silverstein
The wooden bridge. We went there to observe this bridge. Its not so stable, yet people are passing through it randomly, and we even saw some motorbikes were running so fast. They are not scared. But we were scared, thought it will break anytime. We loved the scenery though. The river water was not so deep. The boats are sailing. People are doing their jobs upon the river bank. Ahh! What a beautiful breeze by the bank of this river Korotoa. #roksanatales
Old Books
“Old books exert a strange fascination for me
their smell, their feel, their history; wondering who might have owned them, how they lived, what they felt.”
Lauren Willig
Find Yourself
I think you travel to search and you come back home to find yourself there.
Highest of Arts
To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts””~
Stillness
I think I have learnt something of the value of stillness. I don’t fret so much; I laugh at myself more often; I don’t laugh at others. I live life at my own pace. Like a banyan tree. Is this wisdom, or is it just old age?”
Ruskin Bond, A Book of Simple Living: Brief Notes from the Hills
Hold On
God is there for you to hold on.
Hold on to what is good, even if it’s a handful of earth.
Hold on to what you believe, even if it’s a tree that stands by itself.
Hold on to what you must do, even if it’s a long way from here.
Hold on to your faith, even if it’s easier to let go.
Hold on to God’s hand””~.

Surrender – a quote
The boat I travel in is called Surrender.
My two oars are instant forgiveness and gratitude
complete gratitude for the gift of life.
I am thankful for the experience of this life,
for the opportunity to dance.
I get angry, I get mad,
but as soon as I remind myself
to put my oars in the water,
I forgive.
I serve.
Balbir Mathur
I do the dance I must.
I plant trees,
but I am not the doer of this work.
I am the facilitator, the instrument.
I am one part of the symphony.
I know there is an overall scheme to this symphony
that I cannot understand.
In some way, we are each playing our own part.
It is not for me to judge or criticize the life or work of another.
All I know is that this is my dance.
I would plant trees today
even if I knew for a certainty that the world
would end tomorrow.
