Walls

“Before I built a wall I'd ask to know 
What I was walling in or walling out, 
And to whom I was like to give offence. 
Something there is that doesn't love a wall, “  The Mending Wall by Robert Frost

The precariousness of people’s reactions and responses has impelled me to build a wall around myself like a security blanket.   I have built walls for many reasons: to shield, to separate, to forget, to be invisible, to be left alone… whatever the logic, it is there to keep others at bay.  I have us

Not at all, just try to look at the things from my point of view for a while ;-)

Meaningful and Meaningless Proverbs

With reference to my previous blog, I tell you the proverb that drew all this topic (It's just for fun). The proverb literally says:

“Turn the jar on her mouth, daughters and mothers are always alike.”

2347003868?profile=original

The meaning of the proverb sounds understandable “Daughters and mothers are always alike”. But wait a minute… What the hell is “Turn the jar on her mouth” ? And how could I turn the jar on her mouth? Whose mouth is that supposed to be? Mother!!! Daughter!!! (Just pondering and imagining). Mr.Proverb

In our this visit, a student from our country was with us. He helped a lot and we got a bit more relief to get him along with us. Putrozaya is situated between Kl international airport and Kl city though it is more nearer to Kl international airport.

Toast and Tea

“There will be time, there will be time

To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet;

There will be time to murder and create,

And time for all the works and days of hands

That lift and drop a question on your plate;

Time for you and time for me,

And time yet for a hundred indecisions,

And for a hundred visions and revisions,

Before the taking of a toast and tea.”

The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock by T.S. Eliot 

Life is an experiment and we all learn from it first hand. When you teach someone about

This blog is a sequence of my older post. In this post I will try to go in the depth of some narratives and will endeavor to reach a conclusive ending.

I am thankful to Eslam for commenting on my last blog. It gave me motivation and hindsight to get into details and think well before write. I am glad that he countered my point on reasoning and did not went to the emotional aspect of the narratives as many layman do. He is a tscience/engineering student.

We both agree on American narrative to a lar

The winning argument

 

It was too late to do it legally. No doctor would take it up at this stage. So going to Petrovna was Luda’s only chance.

Petrovna was a necessary evil that the local people bore with. She wasn’t very old though she did look rather aged with her network of tiny wrinkles on a pale round face. Her small eyes had a piercing and knowing look. She used to work as a nurse in the city hospital. After her retirement she settled in her native village . Doing abortions and telling fortunes were the source
