Clothes Line

Time, names, symbols and colours
For everything there is a time.
Time does not change. It is precious and sacred.
It heralds in the new day and with every day, week, month, year and season plays an important part in our lives.
To change time is an offence against Mother Nature and those who rebel against the forces of Mother Nature are punished.

Names too play an important role for good or for bad. Changes in names have spelt doom and even brought luck and prosperity.
When choosing a name, one must take extreme care as every letter has a numerical value.
Remember what happened to Napoleon?

Symbols are also of vital importance and when using a symbol, extreme care should be taken.
No one would like to use a symbol portraying a coffin, gun, dagger, ace of spades, as they symbolise death and destruction.

Likewise, colours also play an important role.
Reds and blacks have their own result.
They portray blood and death, unlike rose, pink, silvery whites, blues which bring happiness, love and vibrate with everything good.

So remember that GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) is static.
It does not change.
Let's hope we will revert back to the time we have always learned to follow.

Just a moment
A few days ago I visited a home for the differently abled. Though the children there are physically disabled, they try to get on with their lives.

We run an incessant rat race. We think about examinations, promotions and earning money.
But if we think about the disabled children who are in the orphanages, they have no experience of the outside world. Most of them only know God and themselves.

The young people who look after those children are doing something remarkable.
They must be patient. I myself cannot do such work.
But I sincerely believe that God will appreciate their efforts.

The visit that I made to that orphanage gave me the opportunity to think deeply about my life and realise that it is vital to be satisfied with what I have.

Up, then down
One day I was thinking ... another day I was writing.
One day I was proud
Thinking that I was a genius
Another day I was disappointed
Thinking that I was a fool.

One day I smiled
Seeing the beauty of the world
Another day I cried
Seeing the harshness of it.

One day I was so glad
Benefiting from society
Another day I was angry
Ill-treated by it.

One day I was overjoyed
Over my luck
Another day I was devastated
Feeling the pressure.
