YOUR CHOICE


One of the more subtle lessons in life we have to learn is this-to detach oneself from the chaos of the battlefield.Let others lose their heads,but keep your presence of mind.When voices are raised and the excuses and the accusations seem to be getting intense,it would be foolhardy to respond in kind.It is easy to lose ones ones head and succumb to irrationality in moments like this.Be detached and analyze the situation not with your feelings but from rational self.Dont lose your head,use it.

PULAU KETAM

I had heard and read so much about Pulau Ketam that finally I had to go and experience it for myself.So I called King Casey,my contractor friend and both of us landed on Pulau Ketam.We ordered some seafood.The next table of foreigners were literally tucking in the big sized crabs.I heard the compliments, "This tastes really great. Its simply delicious!!". .Later while strolling through the island,I noticed that all the toilets were angled straight into the water. So that explains why the crabs here are larger in size!!My suspicions were confirmed! That explains why they were covered under tons of chillies!!Welcome to Pulau Ketam?? Oh my God!!!

STIIRRING

SUNRISE


Another sunrise,and this old planet of ours slowly stirs to life. And together with this planet every living creature has to stir to life too- to face anothet 24 hours.No one can tell us how the day will unfold. It may bring us moments of laughter or sadness and sorrow as those who were on holiday in Mumbai discovered.The same unpredicatability will be the rhyme and rhythem for the day.But whichever way the day decides to rhyme, one thing is for sure-theres no stoppin the sunrise or the revolving of the earth. Life must go on no matter what.God, give me the wisdom necessary to walk on this earth and handle whatever the day brings with all all its twists and surprises.Just dont let me be caught with my pants down.

OPTIONS

In most verbal encounters- victories are negative- they lead nowhere.Keep your mind more on the aftermath of any encounter,and you will think more of the feeling you leave people with.By understanding that any victory or defeat is temporary,you will find it easier to keep yourself balanced during the thousands of spoken and unspoken battles that life confronts us with on a daily basis.The only real ending is death-I hope. Everything else is a transition. Vijay- The Midnight Owl

When guests are leaving,the mood of being reluctant to say farewell is essential.If they leave earlier on any pretext whatsoever,it means thay have deciphered your body language.
