True love

I received these images of true friendship and love by email... Who says only humans know what is love... this pictures shows dogs are second to none..


A dog was knocked down by a car and died on the middle of the road. Later, another dog is seen beside the corpse of the dog, he tried to wake his friend up using his leg.



When his attempts to wake his friend failed, he tried to push his friend to the side of the road. But the weight of his friend was proven too heavy for him.





Though the traffic is busy and dangerous, he just will not go away from his friend. Just stand beside his friend howling and crying.




A lot of people saw this incident and feel very touched. How even a dog can show his loyalty and love to his friend.


Touching love Isn't, we can learn a lesson or two from these lesser sense beings.... but many times humans are worser than the animals.....

inspiring true life incident


One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school, found he had only one thin dime (ten cents in USA) left, and he was hungry. He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house.
However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water! She thought he looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it so slowly, and then asked, How much do I owe you?"

You don't owe me anything," she replied. "Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness."

He said ... "Then I thank you from my heart."

As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but his faith in God and man was strong also. He had been ready to give up and quit.

Many year's later that same young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in specialists to study her rare disease.
Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the Consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately he rose and went down the hall of the hospital to her room.

Dressed in his doctor's gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room determined to do his best to save her life. From that day he gave special attention to her case.

After a long struggle, the battle was won.

Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it, and then wrote something on the edge and the bill was sent to her room. She feared to open it, for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it all. Finally she looked, and something caught her attention

on the side of the bill. She read these words...

"Paid in full with one glass of milk"

(Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly.

Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy heart prayed: "Thank You, God, that your love has spread broad through human hearts and hands."

There's a saying, which goes something like this:

Bread cast on the waters comes back to you.
The good deed you do today may benefit you or someone you love at the least expected time.
If you never see the deed again at least you will have made the world a better place - And, after all, isn't that what life is all about?
About Dr. Howard Kelly:- Howard A. Kelly was born in Camden, New Jersey, and reared in nearby Philadelphia. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with an A.B. in 1877 and received an M.D. from the same institution in 1882. He interned at Episcopal Hospital (1882-1883) and then entered private practice in Philadelphia. In 1883, he founded Kensington Hospital for Women in Philadelphia. From 1888 to1889, he served as associate professor and professor of obstetrics at the University of Pennsylvania. Between 1886 and 1889, he made various trips to Europe to study and visit hospitals. Recruited by William Osler, Kelly came to Johns Hopkins in 1889 as gynecologist and obstetrician and professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the school of medicine which was being formed. A few years later, he also joined the staff of a private hospital that his colleague Hunter Robb had established. In 1912, the private hospital was renamed the Howard A. Kelly Hospital. He retained an affiliation with the Kelly Hospital until it closed in 1940. At Johns Hopkins, Kelly rose through the academic ranks. He served as professor of gynecology and obstetrics (1889-1899), professor of gynecology (1899-1919), and emeritus professor of gynecology (1919-1943). Kelly was a highly innovative surgeon. He invented numerous surgical devices, pioneered many new operative procedures for the female sexual organs, kidneys, and ureters, and was an early proponent of the use of radium for the treatment of cancer. Kelly contributed significantly to the establishment of gynecology as a specialty. He was a highly effective teacher who taught mainly by demonstration in small groups. A prolific writer, Kelly published extensively on surgical subjects as well as medical biography, botany, and the natural sciences. He was a deeply religious man who engaged in an active course of civic work throughout his life.

things to remember


1. The 105-foot-tall (38-meter-tall) "Christ the Redeemer" statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, was among the "new seven wonders of the world" announced July 7 , 2007 following a global poll to decide a new list of human-made marvels. The winners were voted for by Internet and phone, American Idol style.







2-Great Wall of China
This newly elected world wonder was built along China's northern border over many centuries to keep out invading Mongol tribes. Constructed between the fifth century B.C. and the 16th century, the Great Wall is the world's longest human-made structure, stretching some 4,000 miles (6,400 kilometers). The best known section was built around 200 B.C. by the first emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang Di.


3-The Colosseum, Rome, Italy
the Colosseum in Rome, Italy—once held up to 50,000 spectators who came to watch gory games involving gladiators, wild animals, and prisoners. Construction began around A.D. 70 under Emperor Vespasian. Modern sports stadiums still resemble the Colosseum's famous design.





4- Petra, Jordan
Perched on the edge of the Arabian Desert, Petra was the capital of the Nabataean kingdom of King Aretas IV (9 B.C. to A.D. 40). Petra is famous for its many stone structures such as a 138-foot-tall (42-meter-tall) temple carved with classical facades into rose-colored rock. The ancient city also included tunnels, water chambers, and an amphitheater, which held 4,000 people.
The desert site wasn't known to the West until Swiss explorer Johann Ludwig Burckhardt came across it in 1812.



5-Machu Picchu, Peru
One of three successful candidates from Latin America, Machu Picchu is a 15th-century mountain settlement in the Amazon region of Peru. The ruined city is among the best known remnants of the Inca civilization, which flourished in the Andes region of western South America. The city is thought to have been abandoned following an outbreak of deadly smallpox, a disease introduced in the 1500s by invading Spanish forces.



6-Chichén Itzá, Mexico
Chichén Itzá is possibly the most famous temple city of the Mayas, a pre-Columbian civilization that lived in present day Central America. It was the political and religious center of Maya civilization during the period from A.D. 750 to 1200.
At the city's heart lies the Temple of Kukulkan (pictured)—which rises to a height of 79 feet (24 meters). Each of its four sides has 91 steps—one step for each day of the year, with the 365th day represented by the platform on the top.


7.-The Taj Mahal, in Agra, India, is the spectacular mausoleum built by Muslim Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan to honor the memory of his beloved late wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
Construction began in 1632 and took about 15 years to complete. The opulent, domed mausoleum, which stands in formal walled gardens, is generally regarded as finest example of Mughal art and architecture. It includes four minarets, each more than 13 stories tall.
Shah Jahan was deposed and put under house arrest by one of his sons soon after the Taj Mahal's completion. It's said that he spent the rest of his days gazing at the Taj Mahal from a window.
These are the modern seven wonders of the World as per the recent polls.

my beloved god


Tupac Amaru Shakur (June 16, 1971 – September 13, 1996), also known by his stage names 2Pac, Makaveli, or simply Pac, was an American artist renowned for his rapping and hip hop music, as well as his movie roles, poetry, and his social activism. He is the highest-selling hip hop artist, with over 75 million albums sold worldwide, including over 50 million in the United States. Here is one of his fantastic song.... I got it form on of the blog while browsing...
God
When I was alone, and had nothingI asked for a friend to help me bear the pain
No one came, except God
When I needed breath to rise, from my sleep
No one could help me, except God
When all I saw was sadness, and I needed answers
No one heard me, except God
So when I'm asked, who I give my unconditional love to ?
I look for no other name, except God.
~~~ Tupac Shakur

My Version of this beautiful poem

When I was alone and had nothing and nobody to bother
even, when I asked for my dear ones to bear my pains
Nobody came, except my beloved God

When I needed most to overcome challenges and setbacks in life
No one could help and soccur me, except my beloved God

When all I saw was desolation and despair and
When I needed hope and support the most
No one consoled me, except my beloved God

So when I’m asked, to, who I give my unconditional love to,
I have no choice other than to my Beloved God,
As I am indebted to God to offer absolute and complete love

As for God, to whom, inspite of my shortcommings, failures and drawbacks
Of every kind, never, never, never forsaken me.

Trip to Pavaghad

A trip to Pavaghad, near Baroda....




route from Baroda to Halol and then right turn to Pavaghad- the highway is world class with Hotels / motels on the sides.




Smooth ride, clear sky, rich green canopy on the sides



One can climb by stairs and also by rope car, remains of a tomb


deep valley, vertically deep - thrilling experience during rope car journey




Donkeys shuttle carrying the goods... but they are unmindful of the weight.... donkeys!!!! doing gr8 WORK....



Donkey on the move- a picture of shade and contrast....



Kali Maa temple at the top of the Hill



Flag flying at the top of the temple




Pond at the top of hill- crystal clear backed by greenish surrounding



other view of the pond...



Great Shot... search on the pond- for what??.... may be for coins, as devotees throw coins in the pond



Display of antic and show pieces on the enroute shops...



Solitary reaper donkey on a pensive mood -
may be thinking of their fate- living on the edge....


An Jain temple on the hill enroute... deserted and without rush..





captured from the other side....



on the way back... country side village....rustic fertile environment....


ha., fresh, fertile, green.. a treat to eye...


the way back... ofcourse to return once again, as it was memorable and enchanting.

on 7th October 2007, ie on the lazy Sunday Morning, we decided to visit Pavaghat- a hill spot located around 50 kms away from Baroda. The hill is famous for Temple of Maha Kali and has facility of Cable Cart to reach the top. The surrounding place is called Champaner: It seems it is a "World Heritage" site and contains remains of Fort and Mosque built by Mohammed Begda in 11th Century. Due to copious monsoon rains this year, we could see rich green and clear water in the ponds and lakes.
Thanks to My friend chandru, who have penchant for images, shades, and lights snaps with Nikon and captured the finer moments of our memorable trip.

Beautiful Munnar



Munnar is one of the best tourist spot.. rich green forest.. Some snaps taken in my Sony camera..



In Munnar u can see the deers nearby....


The deers are so habituated to the human interference, that they are no longer afraid of humans, they comes very close to humans and eats fruits from our hands....



But we can see those deers in Munnar at the higher ranges... It is a wonderful tourist destination. Accomodations are plenty... but not as chill and cools as kodaikanal or Ooty.. but the Munnar is rich with natural beauty... and beautiful parks... But many of the hills are cleared for tea cultivations... one may think how beautiful munnar would be without Tea cultivations... It seems the bio-diversity has been tampered by human needs and wants... that's way of life....

transformation....

Aaaamazing , the wonder of modern make-up... with cosmetics and skill of the beautician, even a dull and plain can be made -"good looking". This picture is a perfect example for that.



Many of you might have amazed by the make-up of Rajinikanth in the recent movie, SHIVAJI.. How youthful he looks in that movie... all because of wonders of Make-up.. so dont worry, if you are not gifted by beauty or good looks, dont worry... be beautiful by cosmetics...
and be cheerful and happy,
as thing of beauty is joy for ever....
Beauty commands respect and authority... hope u'll agree....

thats great



This picture portraits the true Mumbai wherein the electric trains runs the city... they are the back bone of Mumbai... truely they run almost whole day.. we may call for mumbai railways needs timeless clock... Rain or shine, mumbai trains runs - almost sharply sticks to schedule... one can only amaze the punctuality in which the train arrives...to my personal experience they are very punctual... many people may complain many things.. but managing such a whole lot or people, transporting crores of people daily needs to be appreciated... with the limited facilities... mumbai railways is running the show in surpreme dedication, with punctuality... clearly, hats off to Mumbai Railways...
