A Thought for Today-217:

A person grows by his thoughts, by his actions, by his objectives. We are, as the Buddhist Dhammapada says, just a collection, a layer of our thoughts. So, if we think in a big way and act in a big way, we tend to become big ourselves, as individuals and as a nation - Jawaharlal Nehru

My Photo Album-39:

My niece Supraja is a talented girl. She has drawn three good pictures for me, which I am posting in this blog, along with her photo. She grows up in a healthy, studious atmosphere, which you can see from the background of her photo.

Supraja, all the best and keep it up!

A Thought for Today-215:

Real joy comes not from ease or riches or from the praise of men, but from doing something worthwhile - Wilfred T.Grenfell

Focus-2:

Rafe Bartholomew of Harper's Weekly reports that U.S. income inequality is at an historic high (Harper's Weekly, August 18, 2009).

I feel sad that inequalities, especially income inequalities, are growing to alarming proportions all over the world and nobody seems to care about it.

No wonder crime rate is increasing dangerously world over and life has become insecure everywhere.

Thanks to Rafe Bartholomew and Harper's Weekly.
