Many scientists believe that dolphins are capable of communicating with human beings. In many incidents, dolphins have saved human beings from sharks by swimming around them. There are also incidents recorded in which dolphins have saved boats by swimming ahead of them in thick fog conditions till they reach safe waters. I would also love to be a dolphin as children love them and like to play with them. Dolphins are also known to be very caring and loving towards the young calves they give birth to.

As a reward for all the good deeds of a person, while he or she is alive, the soul is believed to eternally rest in peace in heaven. But I believe that true heaven can be felt even while we are alive. By living in a peaceful world without greed, anger, enmity, vengeance and war, it is possible to realize what heaven is. It is a paradise that can be created on earth with a sincere effort by each and every one of us.

They become defensive and later offensive. To give a feedback and expect a positive response one has to walk a thin line of assertiveness and logic. My friend has a habit of thinking him to be the best and looking down at others. The worst part is that there is no learning for him since he doesn’t think others are good enough to be learnt from. I told him what I thought of this habit of his. The moment I told him that he would be missing from learning from others which is one of the best ways of learning. He acknowledged and said he would do try doing it. Still I do not see any change in him, later will try to reinforce it in him.

I could not figure out where to start. I tried to start but with the speed I was completing the questions I could only get to half of those assigned questions. I called my friend to know how he was doing. He informed me that he spoke to his elder brother and has fixed a deal to get his homework done. I tried to complete my set of questions but knowing that the solution set is only a step away from my house, I caved in and went to my friends place and got my questions done by his elder brother.

If I had to eat only three things, the first would undoubtedly be rice. The way rice can be eaten with anything makes it an all rounder and also doesn’t take an effort to digest. Light and healthy rice would be my first choice. The second delicacy would be lentil. They are nutritious and also a perfect mate for rice. Rice and lentil make the best delicacy even to a connoisseur. The last and the best delicacy would be ice cream. This lovely cold sweet thing on the tongue can work miracles and is the best dessert in the world.

When I viewed at outside the window I saw the most beautiful scene I could remember. The sky was deep blue. The blue you see in seas only brighter. The clouds were like candy balls beneath and the sun was gradually making its way to the other side of the earth. The whole view stretched from my plane to the horizon where the cloud carpet settled into the doorstep of the sky. It looked so beautiful.

There is no significant physical change that I would like to do. There are a couple of things I would change regarding my persona. The constant fear of working under your boss and to please him come what may would be the first thing to go off the list. Having a significant sum of money ensures you to a security that is much needed to be assertive and take unequivocal decisions in life. Only if I win a lottery I would be much more confident in my dealings and also being more risk taking since I would have a buffer. More pains will lead to many gains.

Kids need to be given information at the right dosage so that they do not become curious to actually try it rather than prevent it. Also the young minds need to be taught not to harm others for the sake of fun. Not to stand against anyone for their injustice. There are many a things that my parents taught me while I was growing up. Respecting your elders and to be helpful to those who are of no help to us. If I could pass even some of those to my kids then it would be a significant achievement to make them good human beings

Mother's Day

Image via Wikipedia

A family tradition I’ve grown up with is going to grave sites of deceased grandparents/great-grandparents on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.  When I was a little girl I liked going with my parents to the cemeteries to plant flowers near the head stones, and listen to the stories my parents told and the memories they had with their parents and grandparents.  As I got older, it wasn’t as fun because I was selfish and just wanted to go hang out with my friends.  Now that I live further away, I wish I could go visit the grave sites on a more regular basis and think back on all the time I’ve spent with them.  I think it is important to teach my children to be respectful of the dead, so one day they and their children will come to my grave, plant flowers and say, “hello”.
