I told you not all of the words

I told you not all of the words

I lost them halfway.

I told you not all the words --

They are so hard to find...



as they say much of beauty is lost in translation...

but music transcends all...

Dr. Zhivago 'n now this, makes me want to pick up Russian...It would be really nice to read Dostoevsky in native...

hmm, wonder if there are any Russian language schools in Bangalore...

fall

sharing few esoteric learnings i had over the last week -
  • Don't play tt wearing some 3inch high heels - not that any person would do that but in case you ever feel like it - Don't!
  • Whatever the backgrounds, people essentially remain the same...it pays to have/develop an extra layer of patience and accept the fact that somethings don't change...
  • Don't wear gold rings on treks, especially if you are planning to slip, fall and slide over rocks - 22K gold is easily chipped.
  • If gold is easily chipped, what chance does a finger nail have? So say No, No to long finger nails as well.
  • Learn how to fall safely, 'coz fall you will! But don't ever let that stop you from climbing. :)
