Finest Posts - June 2015 Nominations

Cheeniya · May 26, 2015

Dear All
The sizzler of a month is drawing to a close. We need to endure four more days of Agni Nakshathram but it is not as if there will be a dramatic change in the sizzling hot weather on the very next day. My years of experience have taught me that June will be equally hot. We hear that more than 500 people have dropped down dead in the streets of Andhra, UP, Bihar and elsewhere in the heat wave conditions.

But don’t worry! We are not going to be stupefied into inaction by all this heat. Years of experience have taught us to keep a cool head even if the rest of the body is boiling. The affairs of FP will go on as merrily as ever. Incidentally my buddy and partner Kamla is chilling out in Canada and is expected back in action with greater vigour and warmth. May saw a total of 14 nominations despite the holiday season and that compares favourably with May last year. Further we also saw nominations being made from a wide spectrum of forums. That indeed is good news.

We now invite nominations for June 2015. Get moving like butterflies gathering honey to pick out the best posts from across the site for nomination. In other words, continue doing your excellent work without which the FP Forum would have downed the shutters long back! Just a word for you! A lot of promising new members have been turning out awesome stuff and do give them special attention.

Happy hunting!
The FP Team

Dear Cheeniya sir,

Rain or shine, tornadoes or scorching heat....Our FP goes on and on and who but you are a proof to that constant! Others may chill or shiver, sweat or swelter-- CS manages to keep spreading the pleasant warmth and and the cool caressing breeze with his magic words!

Thanks for being a sport and for always being there with your gallant and helpful nature even as I do my disappearing act!

You have opened the June thread with a bang. No amount of heat will keep our IL'ites away from responding to your call!

Dear RGS,

You did it! I meant, you beat our First Lady at her own game and I don't need to mention who it is, right?? See, if you can play with us, we can do the same too, right?!!

Thanks for bringing this cute little poem, http://www.indusladies.com/forums/poetry/272686-who-says-age-only-number.html, to us written by Pushpavalli Srinivasan. She should know it all, I agree!

L, Kamla

Dear rgs,
I never expected my silly poem to be nominated for the finest post by our master poet RGS in his unique style.

Thanks a lot for nominating my poem,

Dear Cheeniya sir,

I hope you do not mind if I write here with out actually nominating a post...yet! I have to tell you almost startled me with this reminder that June is here. I did not believe it and to make sure I went and checked the calendar, for real! It indeed is almost the end of May. Where is the time flying? And you mentioning Agni nakshtram drove me to look up an Indian news paper and was alarmed reading the news about the heat wave in India. Then, wrote to my friends in whatsapp, telling them now I understood their pleas to Lord Hanuman to swallow the Sun again!

I don't know what world I live in! Makes me wonder sometimes. But it is good to see that you are here reminding us of the months rolling by. It is a good feeling, thank you for being there and am sure glad to have Kamla back! Welcome back Kamla

Enjoyed your June FP opening post!

[h=3]Is happiness perceived or felt? by Shri Viswa is being nominated for the finest post.It deals with subtle difference between gratification and satisfaction. Viswa has tried to establish that though we cannot escape activity in life supported by emotions, how we can derive happiness of the highest order.An exemplary essay with fine colours.[/h]
Though I beg to differ from his views in certain aspects, he stands very tall amidst IL team with his high philosophical thoughts clearly defined.
