You can single handedly create a causal relation between two things that are currently unconnected — a word and an emotion, a song and an extreme weather event, wearing a certain color and winning the lottery. What cause would you link to what effect, and why?
Oh Wow .. what if the Birds chirped and Violins played?
N every time I saw you, I heard “our songs” in my head?
What if every time I looked at a cake slice longingly
My weight would go down by a 100 grams unfailingly?

Wow ! A dream come true!! What could be better?
A ready to occupy country house first on the letter.
With a library, an all night cafe and a home theater
The best of staff, the best of linen all causing a flutter!
From this lovely home, in a long sleek swanky shiny car
I would weave my way to the latest designer store afar!
Rubies, pearls n the long-awaited sparkling diamond necklace,
All in due time would in my treasure trove find a pride of place!
Shopping done, swathed in the best designer gown
To my waiting yacht I would take the road downtown.
And undergo in its spa a luxurious make-over,
As I allow the magicians there to take me over .
To look and feel like a million plus bucks,
My next stop – a few ‘instant’ tummy tucks.
The day culminating in an evening feeling divine
Amidst roses music, dim lights and exquisite cuisine.
As I magically find I have nimble feet
I and my love would dance to every beat.
Money cannot buy happiness they say?
They knew not where to shop and stay!
A spendthrift I am self confessed and accused
No better way to spend a day than discussed!
So bring it on, please bring it on
Let the music play on and on!
Retail therapy brings such untold joy
Would love to do this again and enjoy
Thank you WordPress for this lovely fluffy dream
May you bring more and more I daresay and scream!
Good night…..
I should have spoken of abstract options and emotions and all things nice … but today this is me ….. dreaming of material things and unapologetic about it! Ha ha!
BEWARE, BUYERS!The year is 2214, and your computer’s dusty hard drive has just resurfaced at an antique store. Write a note to the curious buyer explaining what he or she will find there.
Dear Buyer,
If you are contemplating buying this hard disk, let me take you on a little tour to prepare you for what you will find in here. Its a little bit of me, a miniature imprint of my brain, my heart and mind.
And what would that be? First of all be warned that I hate throwing away stuff (read use “delete” button) and so there will a lot of stuff to wade through from my desktop to my drives.Continue reading →
Its not exactly the best story I’ve ever heard, but a story of the movie I saw yesterday. The movie is based on a book by Gillian Flynn and directed by David Fincher . Gone Girl – It reflects the disintegration of a marriage and the power of the human mind when depressed or angered or hurt. A female human mind at that.
The story starts on the 5th Marriage Anniversary of a couple when the husband comes home in early noon to find that his wife has disappeared. He calls the cops as there is evidence of a struggle or a scuffle in the living room. As the story unfolds, we understand that all is not as it appears. As is usually the case, there are two sides to every story and if it is the story of a marriage, the cliche is probably doubly true!
In Retrospect : Yesterday you invented a new astrological sign. Today, write your own horoscope — for the past month (in other words, as if you’d written it October 1st).
October is a busy month for Astraeans. ( https://ripplesnreflectiontimes.wordpress.com/2014/10/28/791/ ) You are likely to have guests and a heavy social scene with friends as well. Your family will demand attention and get it too. A few important decisions regarding your children will be made.For those of you in the medical profession, it turns out to be the busiest month of the year. The good news is that you will earn blessings and satisfaction on that front. Travel is on the cards and family bonding increases as a result. Your siblings will also be happy with your company. If unattached, romance is on the cards. If Married, you will spend a lot of quality time together and be nostalgic. The bad news is that you are likely to attend a lot of functions and socialize at home and so will add a lot of weight. It is therefore suggested that you exercise and diet towards the end of the month. For those of you creatively inclined , you will be appreciated by peers and will bring a lot of satisfaction. All in all a good month for Astraeans.Yaaaayyyyy!!!
