Hello everyone,
This is my blog on IL , you can expect just about anything here. It can be a poem, story, a quote , a song, a movie, a friend's real-life crisis, my office, my dreams, my ambitions..Anything which touches my heart.
Life so far has been rich whirlwind journey. It has taken me to literally whole world in term of reading , travelling and reaching out. I sometimes feel twenty four hours are less in a day. So much to do, so much to see, so much to imbibe. Have you ever looked at nature and thought.. For whom, god has created this wonderful maze of surprises.. For those who dont believe in God. I would say, for whom, this big-bang theory has created such mind blowing landscapes.
So sit tight. I am going to take you along on my journey of life. Its anything but boring. Lot of spice , lot of gossip, some wisdom, some mischiefs and then some good karma..

Bird's eyeview
This is phrase we use to have a cursory but wholesome view of situation , a context or any kind of text.
But for me the reference is in literal sense.. How our world looks from eyes of bird?
First the point which got me thinking about it. I was sitting in my backyard sharing my evening ritual of relaxed evening tea after a hetcic day at office. As usual Husband and I had lots to talk about the day, the office, the colleagues, the upcoming review and what not. Suddenly my attention went to two birds sitting on an overhead electric wire.They must be some 25 ft higher than us. I was wondering what do they think when they see us. If at all they think anything. Being a thinking organism, its easier for me to assume they also do.
Here is what I could come up:
- These two big creatures are probably in some kind of jail. They come out at stipulated time everyday.
- They must be really ashamed of themselves, for they cover themselves with so many strange kind of things, while I get to fly just naked.
- Poor creatures! they are so incapable of managing themselves that each time they have to go out of jail, they need to sit in another boxed jail and then go. While i can just spread my wings and fly wherever I want.
- They are really missing out on world, for they dont know world looks so divine when you fly in sky. Poor them...
- Why their head is like some coconut kind of fruit.. May be its for me to relieve myself..
And all this while I was wondering, poor birds. With this small frame, they have to constantly look for safer places to breed and feed..
Poor me !!

 |  Hi Ria That was a very good one. I believe that these birds are capable of thinking on these lines. Every morning, I have begun a habit of placing a ladle full of cooked rice on the back wall. On the exact time everday, the sparrows come and sit on the ledge waiting for lunch. Yeah they are free and they get to go wherever they want and see the world for free! |

| |  WOW Ria this is a good one! I thoroughly enjoyed the birds eye view.. Its really a pleasure to feed the birds and to listen to them.. thanks so much for such a nice break! |
| |
| |  Nice one ria. Given a chance they might speak to us about their characteristics which we human lack...like sharing......their skills in building their own nests...(some builder has to do for us) and the list goes on.. sriniketan |

| |  Haha! A very thought perspective...Ofcourse we wish we were birds and could fly wherever we wanted to!  Love your posts, Ranganayaki |

| |  Dear Ria, You have wonderful imagination! How we would like to hear the views of animals and birds about mankind! Love, PS |
| |
| |  Ria...Hahaha..good imagination....Here...there are a lot of pigeons...I now guess..whenever they see me..they must be thinking and laughing... "When there is a change of season we migrate to another place which has climate suitable for us...but these two have left the beautiful atmosphere back in India and have moved to a desert..." |
