An entry a day

Yes., I should be writing about anything and everything on the journal. Afterall its a space where I can put my thoughts as it happens. Either in an order or in disorder(as it happens most of the time). As a human, I expect attention, but I realize that in this space goes whatever I want., whether my journal grabs the attention of anyone else or not. This space is like a gallery canvas and you paint pictures just beacuse you like painting!

I should be writing regularly instead of regularly postponing writing! Abundance of topic lies below the sky and above the Earth’s Crust., but then there are even more topics to be written about, below earth and above Skies too! Time for me to get biting (writing in bits and bytes should be “biting” no?)

If you maintain a journal., do you flip back pages and read what you wrote some months ago? Ever heard your voice recorded on a tape and wondered how different it sounds! yes, your own voice sounds really different! We never fully understand ourselves till we stand outside ourselves and “look”. Your journal entries also will make you wonder, if you flip to the entries a couple of months old.

Human mind is like a sponge, absorbing impressions., The impressions come from the surroundings, circumstances and the society you take birth into. In time each mind is soaked, but has got individuality since each contains differtent levels and uniqueness of impression. Objective analysis of oneself and any situation becomes difficult as we see and analyze using the impression-tainted mind.

Yet, we get glimpses of Objective analysis, when we look at our childhood photo(after a long gap), read something which we had written long time back and the like, and wonder if we only had written that or is it my own picture! Before realizing the import of that impression, we move on, tuck away that picture or keep aside the writing and carry on with our “impresssion-gathering”.

We live a life hypnotically, not much different from anyone else, the only reason being, “thats the way we have been living for ages!!!”

Winter

Winter is making a comeback to UK. The trees are shedding their leaves, and the birds are making a vanishing act. Its getting dark by around 4 pm in the evening. Yes, Winter is not that welcome! In an Ideal situation, I would’ve shifted our office to Australia during this time., where its Summertime!

The understanding of the tilt of earth in its axis, and it affecting the winter and summer seasons enhances when one goes through the seasonal change in its full splendor. I read somewhere that in Alaska, there are places, where there wont be any sunshine for long durations during winter. The following picture graphically explains the reason why seasons appear on earth.

Earth is tilted in its axis. Due to this tilt and the revolution of the earth around Sun., the seasons happen. As the earth goes around sun, Either the Northern Hemisphere of the earth or the Southern Hemisphere of the earth is more closer to sun than the other part, causing winter/summer in the respective areas of earth. The If you can see this image in your mind clearly you have understood the reason for cause of seasons. Welcome, you have joined the league of people who wonder at nature.
