Chennai rain 08

After the conclusion of rain, its skies with open and close up to sun shine often. Last week Chennai experienced the worst monsoon in its half decade to wonder still more streets are immerse under water even after couple of days without rain. Our main streets were watered over a foot or half makes harder the vehicles movement and it’s up to the courage to move the struck vehicles in water entered silencer. More hesitate brought everyone within home watching television on often flashing of ‘operation cyclone’ and flood results at varies places within state. So, yesterday went out witness the flood situation on my way towards marina and to a relative house. It was water at every interior road which gives not much a floating experience and it wonders me to see rain water to stay this long, whether within a day to reduce almost. Just our apartment lays rise, the water distance itself, but it supports the whole movement. It was something inverse in our area, like high and low tide in sea, it raise and down in level of water with least reductions. Seeing and knowing other parts of places with water, I feel we experience better than any other place in receiving almost power supply and escape from water login. Below are few pictures, clicked on my way.

I think

Summer Candle

Our knowledge develops more in education but is there anything taught to controlling our mind when it goes insane? Today not alone the wisdom is enough; we should teach how to clear the insane. It’s good for a better future to catch up, to get release from anger or anguish when something goes wrong or fail to success. So let we clear the deed first and make it possible that students or youth learn to make express there mind in right way. I wonder to think what happen to some people in name of terrorist, killing there fellow ones insanely, when we could understand the sense and pain of another person. I usually see anger comes when there is pressure and indigestible of what others enjoy something that we not. In the inability, some want to disturb someone’s pleasure. It was like that to see terrorist can’t accept the true defeat of human beings in union and development in there nature.

There is a powerful thing terrorism had got, it’s the youth. What to put in ground grows, so instead of putting well, some insane people put the evil that we face in terrorism. For a developed mind it’s hard to convince the thing as they have come across years of wise and mentally capability, so they chose the youth at there tender age. It’s the tree that could not bend, if would try, it broke, but not with a plant. As it is in beginning stage of growth it could incline anywhere the force of wind and comfortable space. This might thought the banned groups to pull young people into its target to bend and fold like there wish. Terrorism is not border based, county own or religions depend, it’s everywhere the mind thinks. More people have course to follow in life, few pickup very young and proceed towards there goal, and some have nothing to do get struck into the illegal net to endanger. Many are bewaring, whether there beloved ones may fall into illegal hand of not alone terrorism, other things like smoking, alcohol, drug addict, sex ect... there we need a course of action to get them back to norm in pain and anxiety.

I really don’t like making criticism of anyone I known to write here. But generally there is a feel among people that anything could happen inevitable, because mind won’t think always same. We come across many people, things and practice everyday what can be strange to unaware, when we try to follow, it shows the result, may be right or wrong it depends. Our mind must be prepare and capable to understand which path is right or wrong to chose, that can possible only one is aware of either sides of life. Many a time people hesitate to talk about some critical issues with children or students what’s happening around, well they may think it’s unnecessary to let them know, but I think it must for a bright future. It’s analyzed and realized that could result in our lives. I wish our generation gets better and best education to there knowledge and sane. All the best!

Strike before it bites

IMG_1572 mosquito

Terrorist strikes in Mumbai :( what can we do is just sympathetic than nothing. Every time we condemn the incident and I to express that we need union between people, but what’s wrong is not in our hands. I think often is there any other punishment to those take another lives than sentence to death, but I feel if they truly realize there harm to others would get the lifetime punishment in lack of peace and happiness. Could that possible with terrorist or some other anti-social people? Definitely the answer can be no or hardly impossible. I see they are built up structures to harm, where constructor are hidden somewhere; the operations done by them remotes operates by someone.

India is peace loving country, harmless to anyone and we follow not to be an eye to eye person? Even in these qualities of people there lives another little species, the mosquitoes. In my views they remains the reason how terror strikes are happening even there are tight security. In our everyday lives these small species threat us with bites, which disturbs the slumber at nights and in wet seasons, so we make prepare ourselves with mosquito nets and repellent to keep ourselves safe from bite and vexation. Even though some mosquitoes enters to make annoy our peace slumber, like that however we protect ourselves with defense and three difference security forces there are few entry of terrorism happens occasionally. Even then we try to find out which passage is available to mosquitoes and make tight package against there entry, as well we might tighten our security after the terrorist enter into territory to create violence and then we to give importance. In the run over times after which gets to normalcy we reduce the security and look blank without any idea from which side the terror strikes.

Whoever, when the mosquitoes to bite won’t we protect and hit before it bite or just leave it to bite and go? Whomever, we aren’t exception in this, does we? The terrorism is like that, we can’t show kindness towards them when knowing they are born to injure. When the bloody violence getting stage we are speechless and idle to express our strong condolence and anger. We don’t know how the government going to deal with terrorism in future, but our entire wish could be no terrorism in any territory around the world.

The picture of mosquito was taken today morning with macro shot when it falls down after a short circuit with power bad.

Bright in color

Bright color

There was a trend growing around faster is the buildings and homes to paint with bright colors. I think it all begins first in villages, where something showy they like to be there homes. These days its growing more in outskirts and in cities like Chennai at the least beginning. At every turn there is something as strange bright in color staring us. Where people don’t care much of appearance, just painting with any lime distempers are now looking for pretty colors to get easily observe.

More likely than, there was a similar taste going around in villagers is to construct there homes alike one another. I see in many villages, the homes with portico and beside a steps climbing. To add, the boom in real-estate overturns there life, getting a SUV take place the front. A turn is good, but over turn could be fine for them, not for a country depend on agriculture! I pretend what glam could be until one is pretty and the wish is not wrong that it should be ever, but for the short duration of please, why should we lose the everlasting support our lives. To live we need to do some deed and enjoyed when there is warmth in fire and a circumstance in lack of woods where do we go get fire. Everyone likes to live richer and comfort, when this caught the track it’s harder to get back to roots. Is what happens at many places, where the new comforts want them not to plough into fields?

The above picture was taken on weekend near chengalpattu. I know this house from the beginning stage of its renovation from its past bush structure. It takes more than a decade to get this colorful structure and it hold coconut trees that are uprooted somewhere to buried here. It wonders anyone even in this place of rural-urban people have a wonderful flavor.

Weekend travel

Date: 22.11.08
My Grandpa's home

Traveling is good, and when its drizzling is wonderful. My therapist call to say he would be coming morning and we had a plan of traveling outskirt, so told him let he make it earlier thus there won’t be delay in our traveling and get home at least by late evening. In-between mom calls her aunt in chengalpattu (a town 50km away from Chennai) that we are coming to lunch. Somehow they got some destination and I get to travel, out in pleasant drizzling. Any how he dint came at all until 11.30, so we droved! Usually I go with cousin, mom and dad in the maruti 800, as it feasible alone, but after getting a SUV in pursuit, it was wish to go out with our grandparent and cousins in the vehicle of enough spaces. We took the OMR, which is facelift to sufficient smooth drive; digest to the rough drive we experience in past. When going with family they usually want to visit temples on our way, so they stopped at the tiruporur murugan temple. It was untimed to gate closed and moved getting few snaps of the temple tank. Its something always filled with water, and unconditionally every year we come across this temple.

I love riding on the stretch between thiruporur and chengalpattu, known locally as thiruporur kootroad (combined road), is well mix of forest, villages and fields, to much greener remain near Chennai. Last time I was get to capture more monkeys on the way, but due to drizzle and rain they are invisible that day. It was something we could provide to our grandfather is taking him to his old home. The village we come across was my grandpa’s native, and it was such opportunity for us taking him there and it was anything he could exist to remember and to meet his neighbors. It was the picture at top was his home, which wasn’t maintained properly and yet to destruction. I remember climbing on the window bar, sitting on the gate way and seeing more old pots been arranged inside the rooms and large backyard. Ones we followed our grandpa into the village through single foot path which leads to grass floors and cross a pond of feet water to get some plants from field. It was the time I could wander on my own, and grandpa was more active and aunt was unmarred its fun get to village and rarely we come to this home, most often we visit grandpa’s sister home.

From there came to grandpa’s traditional deity temple on the way, and it was empty as usually. The paddies around the temple are tender to grow and evergreen in color. Along the way there was fields and cattle to come across and it was dad’s first attempt on a SUV - Scorpio, so this travel helps him getting comfort drive on this not busy road to practice more. It was by 3.pm we having lunch at grandma’s home – as she was my mom’s aunt and retired teacher, who could remember her retirement post here. There were many changes, and to my favorite place of then vacations is always in my memories and more residents where exist and bright colored homes to charm this recently. They live in suburb of the town and it’s the spaces and freeness as kids we rejoice come here and also playing with cousins. Some more on the travel will continue as part of another post.
