The Young Gardener

"Aargh, my hands are dirty." cried a five-year-old Pedro as he raises them in the air and flaps them irritatingly. 

"That's alright," came the mom to his rescue as she dusted them off and kissed those fingertips, "Look at the plant you just put in the soil."

Little Pedro saw the marigold and went his way. 

A week went by; the tiny plant had two new buds. 

Pedro was noticing it all this while. 

Then one fine day, mom saw him bend over and kiss the flower. 

"The flower is so happy," he said as he clapped his hands.

Wordless Wednesday #89

With no rains, the grass is parched, dry and yellow. Felt as if driving through a desert!

Just as the water is necessary to quench our thirst and give color to our universe.

Thoughts play the same role in our mind. They can either make us jump with joy or quiver in terror for no rhyme or reason.

Mantra for today: Earth, one planet but educates us in so many ways!

How to protect our home?

My Planet, Earth is our home. We share our home with trillions of living organisms.

We are fortunate to be sharing this space with all, however; what steps do we take to help protect it, and sustain it for the future generation?

We have muddled us our lives thus, only think  about ME, I, MYSELF.

Result

Global warming and natural calamities are on the rise.

Experts have recommended some basic steps to help increase the longevity of this planet.

The 3 R's

Reduce, Recycle, Reuse

The 3 R's will help sustain the stocks of this planet. When we share this home with trillions; we ought to change our thinking to WE, US, OURSELVES.

Mantra for today: Think beyond yourself. It will benefit you in many ways!

Enough is enough!

Ever wonder who sets the trends of the fall, winter, summer? 

Ever ponder on who created the guidelines for perfect figure?

Ever evaluated on how we termed things ugly or beautiful?

One plain and simple answer to the above is: Humans!

Yes, we are so powerful that we create the guidelines of existence on this one planet of life, Earth. Rules are good, but not to such an extent that they tend to overwhelm us and suffocate us. We are the majority of the living species on this planet then, why not just live and let live be our motto. Why do we have to poke at people who actually use their mind and not abide by the rules created by man especially such as following the fads of a season or dieting themselves to death to attain a particular figure or keep getting cosmetic surgeries to redefine himself?

Enough is enough! Let us scrape out those trends, let us abolish those numbers of a good figure, let us remove the term ugly/beautiful. 

We are beautiful and intelligent souls who know what makes us cool. 

Stick to it!

Mantra for today is: BE ORIGINAL
