Passing by a roadside vendor i heard him saying to his friend “Winters will last hardly 50 more days”. My gaze dangled on his stall. There were 20 coats. Smartly arranged on a cable along the boundary of the road. I turned back to look at him. I saw that he is happy, chatting carelessly and his eyes confidently read “I can sell 20 coats in 50 days”.
Some famous guy has already said that “If you can imagine it, you can achieve it” otherwise i was going to have my own quote at this very moment. These copyrights sorta things boggle my mind
I never liked Programming and coding a program was never an interesting thing for me but today i got introduced with HTML(a programming language) and believe me it is so easy and interesting to play with. Even a newbie can write an executeable code in html.
So i wrote a simple code for a webpage and loved the experience. Here it goes,
<html>
<head>
<title> A Poet who died young </title>
</head>
<marquee font size=”5″ color=”blue”> THE WORLD WILL REMEMBER HIM </marquee>
<p>
<font size=”4″ color=”green”>
<body bgcolor=”silver”>

<img src=”http://www.poetryfoundation.org/uploads/authors/john-keats/448x/john-keats.jpg” alt=”The Poet” align=”left” >
<br/>Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard<br/>Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on;<br/>
Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear’d,<br/>Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone:<br/>
Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave<br/>Thy song, nor ever can those trees be bare;
<br/>Bold Lover, never, never canst thou kiss,<br/>
Though winning near the goal–yet, do not grieve;<br/>She cannot fade, though thou hast not thy bliss,<br/>
For ever wilt thou love, and she be fair! </body></p>

Well, i admit that it’s indescent to shout in capital letters but I don’t know what the Guninness people are waiting for!!!
they should have awarded the title of “Most funny state in the world” to my country by now
Isn’t it interesting that one day you wake up to know that there would be unscheduled power outages and then these outages keep teasing you many times a day but you don’t have any single idea whether the authorities have a workable plan to solve this problem or they’ll just keep enjoying the handsome pay and luxuries which the government is liable to pay to this lucky lot.
Politics, judiciary and the Mother of all; Media have created such a havoc in the country that even the most careless people have started to think about these issues
some of them have even decided to do a detailed blog post on this mayhem
I am not interested in shedding more tears over this spilt milk at the moment but i am more than sure that Guinness people are biased for not considering us for the award ;)
Anyways… today i got an opportunity to sit with a 90 years young man. We talked about various things
i’ll quote some of his sentences, it’s upto you how you interpret them. Sorry for inconvenience if you don’t understand Urdu. (It’s the language that we speak in Pakistan)
“qanoon tou moum ki naak hae, jis taraf chaho maror lo”
“janwar bhee apni jins ko nuqsan nahee pohnchata”
“hum ney sub kuch apni ankhon se dekha hae, abhi hum zinda hain magar log din diharay jhoot boltay hain, such ko chupatay hain”
Normally aged people are not a nice company to be with but exceptions are always there. In my opinion aged people are a treasure. It depends on us whether we get benefit from their experience or not.

They are all so interesting. Special in their own way. I really enjoy to observe the way they look, the way they act.
I feel respect for them when they show kindness. I admire them when they exercise freedom while keeping there sanity.
However I pity, when they are driven by their insignificant insecurities. They loose control and act as if they are bots fed with a coded program.
They love, they fight, they die and they kill.
They can smile even when there heart is weeping.
They are so diverse and still alike in certain ways.
They are so able in their disabilities that they could be Stephan Hawking.
If you have a good eye you’ll be able to see some of the many types of them.
Life is short and the types are so so many.
You can start with observing yourself

Yesterday i saw a little herb peeping out from our backyard wall. I was amazed as it seemed similar to what our teacher once showed to the class in a biology lecture. I went closer to examine it. The irregular light green leaves and dark black stem looked so cute.
Such lonely herbs always attracts me. I like the way they fight for their existence.
Well, i decided to adopt this herb
There were some empty pots available in the lawn so i prepared one of them to host the Adiantum Capillus. Yes, that’s what this cute thing is called
It was so fun. I felt like lending a home to a neglected cute being.
Later on i found on www.geniusherbs.com that this herb is of amazing medicinal importance.
- Decoction of leaves (fronds) as tea for chest afflictions, colds, coughs, snoring. Promotes appetite and digestive aid. Also, gently laxative;
- Decoction of rhizomes as tea for cough, respiratory problems, fevers, and abdominal colic.
- Externally, for a variety of skin diseases and inflammatory conditiions.
It is used as a postpartum tonic, in doses of two tablespoons every two hours. Regulates menstruation. - Used as a lotion for falling hair and baldness. In Peruvian Amazon, fronds as infusion or syrup used as diurectic, expectorant and emmenagogue.
In Pakistan, the plant is used for diabetes. - In Ayurveda, Adiantum is used for colds, tumors of the liver and spleen skin diseases, bronchitis and inflammatory diseases.
After this wonderful experience, I am thinking about making a small Botanical Garden in my home. Let’s see how far i can go
You can also look around your abodes for such interesting flora and let others know about what you have found. I can assure that it would be an exciting experience.
Take care!

Cards were shuffledt and then five cards were distributed among each, four of us.
Hearts!
Was the color selected by my partner.
Eyes carefully searched the reddish zone of the 13 cards set under my thumb like spreaded feathers of Peacock ready to dance.
The game started and it was so fun to sit with interesting people, listening to local proverbs and words of wisdom throughout the play.
These days, i feel myself as a boat; drifting in the ocean of life, stopping by amazing islands and catching fish with my broken fishing rod
eating coconuts that come across my boat riding powerful currents.
