Whats special about this pic !.. Read on…

It’s one of those days when I visited the Panjim market to meet the tailor. It was just an adjustment and it wouldn’t take too long. Considering the big line of eagerly waiting tailors to make a quick morning buck, I decided to go with this sweet looking muslim whose burka obviously indicated the religion. I gave instruction on what I needed and observed her as she did the rest. My observation led to an interesting insight which perhaps would have been ignored if I was in a rush. In her shop, there sat another lady busy stitching a bright yellow kurta. She was a hindu. And there I was , a Catholic, as their customer. All 3 religion under one roof !! .

These ladies worked in such harmony. If a simple trade can bring two religion together, in such peace, where both are benefiting from the trade why can’t the other things, the so called “bigger issues” in our own country and around the world ??

Positive Vibes

Positive Vibrations Just imagine yourself seating in a room and in enters two person's, first one is standing tall, shoulders straight, head high, looks at you and gives you a pleasant smile as if to say “hope you doing fine“, the second, a hunch back, very tensed face, looking towards the floor as if there is some puck on it, leaving you totally uncomfortable, which one would you turn to for help or perhaps for directions to the nearest post office. We all know the answer ! What sort of people make life worth living , a bunch of nerds or a bunch of enthusiast ? Here again you know what is the answer. Yes, we are on a look out for people who give us those positive vibes, who take life problems with a smile, we are on a look out for people who make us feel good about ourselves, we are on a lookout for people who with their kind smile help to lessen our burdens. So what makes an enthusiast ?? what makes a person walk up strainght with a pleasant smile ? It can’t possibly be ...
