Talk About... Jyotish, Accidents and Coincidences!

I had just gotten online reading my friend, Mark Kincaid's jyotish readings on Planetary Wars, benefices/malefics, remedies, etc., especially for this month, and I was just about to tell Norman to be careful of accidents when we heard a loud noise on the street and when we checked outside the window, we saw a tree that had just fallen right by our window. It was a part of the tree that fell to the ground. Luckily, no one was hurt and we're fine, at least for now. We won't know until the tree is removed then we'll see if there was any damage done but I think we're all right.


We're fine. Thank God.

News of the Day

A Round Up of the Day's Events -
  • Heat Warning in the East Coast with 3-digit Temperatures and High Humidity
  • Thunderstorm in Washington
  • San Francisco is Colder than Alaska Today?!
  • Gulf Oil Spill Far from Over, Way Far from What Government is Saying
  • Unemployment Still High - 
In Russell, Georgia, a church opened its doors for networking for the unemployed and has helped many people who have lost their jobs and find it hard to find work, who've lost hope or losing it. It's like a spiritual networking, people say, where they are realizing they're not alone. And volunteers come to help and without even having to say, "I'm here", their presence are felt and appreciated. It's like "loving your neighbor." 
"It's genuine love. It's loving somebody you don't know."
And you see quite a few on their knees in prayer for strength, hope and thanks. 
Inspiring story!

Sometimes, A Wishful Thinking!

This secret to living well, (My Secret to Living Well, July 2010), sometimes it's easier said than done, especially with so many music projects and a lot of catching up to do - in my life! But it still is the way to go for me. Thank God, I do TM, it really helps. Try TM, it works.

Incidentally, I've been seeing a lot of levi.com posters everywhere and I like their ads -

Go Forth.

There is a lot of work to be done and undone.

They seem to fit my lifestyle right now - busy, busy, busy! Lots of work to do and undo! Regardless, I still aim to go to bed early. It's just my quiet little way to end the day, nice and easy. Good night. ZZzz.....

RUSH, RUSH, RUSH!!!

WHY??? WHAT FOR???

Talk About... Hints & Signs!

We had a concert at the store the other week and the artist, (how can I forget the name, I know him so well?!), played a beautiful arrangement of the Beatles' song, "In My Life". On our way home, inside the BART, a young father and his sons "serenaded" the passengers. They were not street musicians, just trying to "make an honest living" with their music.  And they also sang the Beatles' "In My Life", in fact, it was their first song!

What is the connection there? We know how Nature talks to us, sometimes in the most mundane things. But when it repeats itself, back to back, at that, you just know there's more to it than just the events recurring, a mere coincidence! I don't know the lyrics, but somehow it behooves you to reflect on Life - our lives together, Norman and me, as we both heard the song together same day same time twice, and also as individuals.
As soon as we reached home, I googled the lyrics and here they are -

There are places I remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more



So simple yet so deep - BEAUTIFUL!

Aah, Love Hints!

LOVE just keeps comin'! What is that old saying," Love knows no reason." - love it!
