The Pursuit(?) of Happiness

One day the teacher asked her 6 year old student what he wanted to be when he grew up. He said, " Happy". The teacher then told him that he had gotten the question wrong. What an irony!

Happiness is a state to be in, not a goal to achieve. It is the default state of a human being. No man can live in his past or his future, yet we keep worrying, unmindful of the joys that they are surrounded by. Discover the happiness you already have. Have a happy day! :-)

Musical Prodigies

They are Naturals. No elaboration needed. Seldom do we see sights where the song rendered impromptu on stage by 14 year olds seems better than the original. And more so when the people who originally sang those songs are musical prodigies themselves. :-)

I only wish that she compete once with Krishnamoorthy. Ah, Music is divine. May god bless them. 

To get a flavor of their standards, please watch these videos.

Do see the kind of variations they can bring about- from Rustic, to classic to western and Arabic. Stunning!

She

He was the man she loved most. He would do anything for her. Their love transcended all physical, mental and emotional barriers and was so pure and selfless that people were jealous when they walked together. They were each other's best friend, in the truest sense. She confided everything to him, all her secrets, wishes and desires. He simply loved everything about her, and when he was with her, he seemed to forget all his worries. She was his world.

Finally, on one day, he was born. The world rejoiced at the new arrival. She had endured pain, was barely conscious, yet when she saw him, all her pain vanished into nothingness. The noise was blurred. He was a part of her. Knowingly she smiled, as she slipped into the bliss of oblivion.
