I am Still Trying To Write ...

Funny thought

When I am working for experience In an organisation I am doing an internship .but if I am working in court for experience shouldn’t it be known as courtship 😜

What’s the future ?

While going through the newspaper today ,I came against a thought and was thinking about it for a while and wondering what is the perception of India for a tourist ,investor ,and an emigrate ,not in terms of the economic growth ,with MNCS ,enjoying the sudden change of Indians spending money on shopping for clothes. Cars,lifestyle ,health and travel ,but as nation where you go through a newspaper and there are front page stories of crime ,child abuse ,theft 95 % of the time ,but hardly would see any success stories on Indians changing the countries in a positive way ,these stories only come when they feel that’s well they have got enough crime news ,and now need to fill up the 32page newspaper with “some other news”,why are we giving so much importance to news that would damage the image of the country because of a few 100s ,and not just the newspaper ,the news channels too through out the day highlight news on the crime news ,don’t we as a country have much more to offer to the people ?
Can we not as a country see how much these horrifying incidents and stories affect the tourism of a country that has so much to see and do ?
I am not telling well not report these incidents ,rather give solution how can we stop this country from being known as the “criminal minds”.
And developing the country .

Happens only in India

When an Indian in India is scarastic,expressing his view on a poltics and poltican ,they arrest the citizen ,but when polticans do blunders ever now and then there is no action against them ,only criticising them ,speaking about them ,why can’t we as a country citizen take any action against ,we the people have elected them ,they haven’t elected us ,we are the people who are the ones who get affected ,they aren’t getting affected they know exactly who they are ,what they do,but then why do we people become silent after just getting aggressive for the moment and forget about ?,why aren’t we continuing to fight for change,is it because of the attitude that well thing will go on like this ?,why can’t we change ?what stop us from being the change ?
What’s stopping us from moving ahead In taking action against these rotten spoilt eggs ?

Denims!!!

The word “denim” comes from the name of a fabric that was first made in the city of Nimes , France , by the André family. It was originally called serge de Nîmes but the name was soon shortened to “denim.”

Denim has been used in the United States since the late 18th century.Denim was traditionally coloured blue with indigo dye  to make blue jeans , although “jean” formerly denoted a different, lighter, cotton fabric. The contemporary use of the word “jean” comes from the French word for Genoa,Italy(Gênes), where the first denim trousers were made.had just been observing these days ,the popularity for denims have fallen down,with coloured pants being the new rage against youngster and adults ,Even the USA which have had the denims since the late 18th century too has seen a decline in denim jeans worn  ,so how long is this trend going to really last ? are denims become a thing of the past . And also the denims known for the blue   indigo dye to  ,had a phase too were people had gone crazy ,just the way they are going for coloured pants to own one of them .Or  have denims become a classic piece of bottom wear ,which will be used for formal events ,if we are using coloured pants informally ,its not just pants that are worn but also sporty-wear track pants that have become the new style statement with so many design,stretch fabric available or  the recent trends that have being growing around the globe steadily where  people have started to spend more on dining ,fine food and trying out cuisine,travel  rather than spending more on shopping of clothes responsible for this ?

 

Did you Know?

while I was going through  a book,I came across an interesting piece of information about  snakes & ladders . “Moksha Patam “was earlier known as snakes and ladders and just realised ,that the game snake and ladder originated from India .And  then I was so eager to know about the game that i decided to write this piece .

The game is a simple  and was very popular with young children .

It was known as moksha patam or vaikunthapaali or paramapada sopaanam (the ladder to salvation). The game made its way to England and was sold as “Snakes and Ladders”, then the basic concept was introduced in the United States as Chutes and Ladders
Known as Moksha Patam, the game was popular in ancient India and emphasized the role of fate or Karma  . A Jain version, Gyanbazi or Gyan chauper , dates to the 16th century. The game was called Leela   and reflected the Hinduism  consciousness surrounding everyday life. The underlying ideals of the game inspired a version introduced in victorian England  in 1892.Moksha Patam was associated with traditional Hindu and jain philosophy and  contrasting karma and kama, or destiny and desire. It emphasized destiny, as opposed to games such as pachisi, which focused on life as a mixture of skill (free will) and luck. The game has also been interpreted and used as a tool for teaching the effects of good deeds versus bad. The ladders represented virtues such as generosity, faith, and humility, while the snakes represented vices such as lust, anger, murder, and theft. The morality lesson of the game was that a person can attain salvation (Moksha) through doing good, whereas by doing evil one will inherit rebirth   to lower forms of life. The number of ladders was less than the number of snakes as a reminder that a path of good is much more difficult to tread than a path of sins. Presumably the number “100” represented Moksha (salvation). In Andhra pradesh  , Snakes and Ladders is played in the name of Vaikuntapali.The phrase “back to square one” originates in the game of snakes and ladders, or at least was influenced by it .
