When I was a boy growing up we lived across a river from the main road next to a set of rail road tracks. The only way to our house was across an old, wooden swinging bridge. We only had two neighbors as well. Both lived in houses on the hillside behind our home and both were named Frank. Big Frank was a large, heavy set man who lived with his wife in a small, white house and grew plants that they would sell to home...

It's amazing what humanity can learn from nature. The Biosphere 2 project was created as a research tool for scientists to study Earth’s living systems, and it allowed scientists to play with farming and innovation in a way that didn't harm the planet. One of the most profound discoveries made by the scientists had nothing to do with a cure for some new disease or a new way of farming land. Rather, the...

I had high fever and had to be admitted in a local hospital during Sep 2014. In the room where we were staying, there was another bed occupied by a poor student who was admitted for some problem. He was put on oxygen the whole night and surprisingly there was no attender to help him in any way. Obviously his parents were staying elsewhere. He was all alone. The next day, after the oxygen was removed, we saw few of...
A Natural Disaster That Taught A Valuable Life Lesson

An ardent follower of Hindu mythology, I always wanted to explore the northern part of India where much of the activity happened during previous eras according to the Hindu scriptures. So, one day while I was researching for feasible options in the Internet, I came across this club which is conducting tours for the pilgrims to visit Kedarnath temple located in Uttarakhand. For many, visiting Kedarnath is a journey...

It was very cold in the morning today. So I layered myself with warm clothes, fur boots, wollen cap and windproof jacket. My hands were still freezing. I rushed to the street where my office cab was waiting for me and the moment I boarded the cab I felt a huge relief, it was warm in the cab. I plugged in my headphones and started listening to some beautiful music. I was still sleepy so I closed my eyes to take a...
This Experiment With Monkeys And A Ladder Will Teach You An Important Life Lesson
By Chris on December 22, 2014 / 6,871 views
A group of scientists placed five monkeys in a cage and in the middle, a ladder with bananas on top. Every time a monkey went up the ladder, the scientists soaked the rest of the monkeys with cold water. After a while, every time a monkey went up the ladder, the other ones beat up the one on the ladder. After some time, no monkey dared to go up the ladder regardless of temptation. Scientists then decided...

When I was a boy the one Christmas present me and my brothers never wanted but always got was socks. Every year under the tree there would be a package of thick, white tube socks for each of us. They were always quickly stuffed in a drawer and forgotten about while we played with our real presents and enjoyed Christmas day. In time, however, the lights were taken down, the Christmas tree was thrown out, and only...

By Bala on December 19, 2014 / 6,597 views
This incident happened sometime in 2010 when I was on an official assignment in USA. I used to take the bus regularly to my office and back home. On my way back home there was this guy who gets on my bus with his seeing eye dog. The dog was the sweetest thing I have ever seen. Oh, the patience it had with its master! Every time he got off the bus, it used to wait patiently for him to get-off (believe me, it took...

Find yourself near some flowers. In fact, touch the flowers with your hands and marvel at the beauty and power of nature. Flowers feed off the sun and the nutrients of the Earth.

When I was a boy I used to look forward to Christmas morning with all the eager anticipation of a child. I couldn't wait to crawl under the tree, pull out my presents, and rip off the paper. Yet, the best part of the day came after the presents. Once those presents were opened I would spend hours reading the books I got with pure pleasure and playing with the toys I got with joyful abandon. Yet, the best part of the...

Ten years ago I was sitting on a commuter train from Barcelona to Montpelier, a nice journey hugging the shoreline along the Costa Brava, when we came to a halt in the middle of nowhere. After a short while the conductor's voice on the speakers announced in French and Spanish that there was a problem on the tracks ahead and that we'd be delayed a while. A sigh went through the carriage and there was a sullen silence...

When it comes down to it, there really is only love or fear to choose from. The obvious way we think about this is, choose love every time. The trouble we run into though, is that fear wears many disguises. It won’t always come to us as fear. It will come to us as practicality, being realistic, scarcity. We limit our abilities and build walls around our potential because we are afraid of our own greatness. The...
