Can Money Buy Happiness?

Can Money Buy Happiness?
  Money becomes very important in one's life. Some people even thinking is the source of happiness. They have the following reasons for this idea. First, they think that they can buy material things with money. Second, they believe that they can live longer if they have money to cure some of their diseases. Their most important reason is that they may travel a lot if they have money.
  However, some other people don't think so. They have evidence to be­lieve that money is the root of evil. One evidence is that some officials com­mit crime for the sake of money. Another evidence that makes them hold this belief is that they saw some people spend money freely and spoil them­selves at last.
  It seems that both of the two kinds of people are right, but I think we should take a dialectic point of view. Money can bring happiness, but it is not the source of happiness. Similarly, while it can cause bad things, it is not the root of evil. What is important is that we should be the master of money, not its slaves.

A Flower To Auroville Mother-9


Saamandi, Jevandi(Chrysanthemum)

Innocent those flowerheads innocently stray
Rooting variable in colourful search
'Our mother, father, who are they'
In fragrant spread they hurry much

Be it Samkhya or Chaaya and the Sun
Their love and the Sunflower then
Be it the Sun and who knows who when
The Sun played well with to yield then..

Behold, those golden flowers Chrysanthemums
With senative hearts for the humans
Hued aplenty and all trendy little mums
Usable all worthy and serviceable florescence

Now the Sunflower is cordial very much
Addressing affectionate the stepsisters
All their common sunny semblance as such
Aren't they stepchildren of Sun's sports

Young heart...old soul

The world is running fast, it rather just pass by.
I have a young heart, accompanied with an old soul.
I would prefer to close my eyes than think of what makes a person cry.
While he feels complete somehow, but still not whole.

I would love to stop and control time.
But we live reality not matrix.
My life will end soon as i lose my mind.
The old fashion way very simple and basic.

Before i will sit on my confession chair, vent®ret.
Speak up loudly so i can clearly hear me.
The real pure moments, i will treasure&respect.
The disappointments with agony it will deceive me.

So let's save memories and capture moments.
Take with our eyes memorable pictures.
Delete broken hearts, re-live the romance.
Listen to your inner self, forget the lectures.

Traveling for Sunshine

Traveling for Sunshine
  People travel for a lot of reasons. Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.
  Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason: sun!
  But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it's getting worse. None of this however, is spoiling anyone's fun. The Mediterranean is getting more popular every year with tourists.

TO BE PATIENT

When someone disagrees with you or offends you,don’t lose your temper . Why? Because it is of no use to do so. You ought to be patient and keep calm lest you should quarrel with him. You must know that patience is not cowardice, but a virtue. I hope that everybody practices it.
  In addition, patience will also bring us success. When you meet with difficulties in your work, it is no use losing heart. You must keep on fighting until the final victory belongs to you.

Though the people in the world are all opposed to war, they can by no means avoid it. This is indeed a regrettable thing.
  War is very terrible. Everybody hears it with fear. In a war thousands and thousands of lives will be lost and a large amount of money (will be) wasted. It brings us untold miseries and damage.
  To sum up, so long as war is unavoidable, human beings cannot enjoy lasting peace. How tragical their fate is!
