A Saint in my dream

A Saint in my dream

Might be you would not believe in my words because I myself is confused for it what I experienced once. There are certain numbers of people who do not believe in God and then not in angels, Saints and Messengers from God. It also does not mean that if you believe in God you must be going to believe in the existence of Saints especially in the times we are taking our scientific breath. Our existence is a reality with no doubts nonetheless sometimes what we experience; we become convinced of the existence of supernatural, superhuman being and may be saints. 

The day my father came to pick me from college in the evening, my mother was also there with him. As I sat in the car my mother impatiently said that something is wrong with papa, he is not behaving normally. I started talking to him and I felt the same because he was stammering a little and was not pronouncing the words accurately. I also started worrying about the situation. When he started driving the car we hardly survived a few bad incidents or you may call them accidents but thanks to God that we reached home safely.

We insisted him all the way back to the home visit the doctor but he was not willing at any cost. After reaching home I called the doctor discussed everything in details he said that he is unable to figure it out without a complete checkup.  All of us somehow managed to take him to the doctor and he recommended few test to get the final finding of the illness. After coming home we gave him prescribed medicine and he slept peacefully. All of us went to our rooms so much worried about him. I was unable to sleep till late and anxiously praying for his good health. I remember in late hours of the night I fall asleep for a while and that nap was not more than fifteen minutes, when I got up I was so much scared of a dream. I saw in the dream that there was a hall filled with a huge number of people may be countless. There was a saint sitting on a terrace going to start a prayer for every single person present in the hall. I also gave a piece of paper written “Please pray for my father “to his caretaker. My worries for my father extended in perspective of my dream it was a hard time till we got his reports. He had a minor stroke which is curable, treatment started and he recovered completely.

But what was the dream about I really do not know? Was it just my unconscious stage of mind due to worries was there something supernatural or God really sends his angels and saint to heal poor people on earth.

Engagement Rings

Engagement Rings

I am confused and curious why an engagement, a formal agreement of getting married is a slave to a ring of metal. Historian says Egyptians and then Greeks are the father of tradition of wearing engagement rings.

 Metal for engagement should be costly one like Platinum, Palladium, Gold or Silver and some might be trying to find from out of this world as well. the story of an engagement ring is not a onetime story; it is an epic in series include the metal, the precious or semi-precious stone, the Size, the Color of metal and stones and the most important one is about the choice of the one whom you are going to bound in agreement.

However Rhodium appears to be most expensive and dream of everyone but you can also trust Platinum, Rhodium, Gold, Palladium, Titanium, Ruthenium, Iridium, Osmium, Indium and Silver in making the strong bond of engagement.  There is no evidence found that specific metal worked in certain conditions very well and the couple lived happily ever after. But yes all of them have different characteristics. If one is soft then other is brittle and hard. One is bright silver white then other is yellow in shines or grey-white. Selection of the metal is totally matter or finance and choice.

It is not the metal that keeps the couple in strong bond but some claims are there that gemstones in jewellery may have an impact on the personality of individuals and so the personal dealings and relationships. Most brilliant stones for engagement rings are Diamond, Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald. If a little element of superstitious is part of your life you can consult someone which stone is going to suit you for keeping you happy in a relationship. You can choose a combination of the stones for your relationship ring. Single stone mounted in the ring equally work.  Gemstones are available on earth crust in different colours and sizes and shape dependent on the stone expert in cutting and then jeweller.

After choosing Metal and stones then comes the stage of the size which is not difficult or something to ponder upon.

Nursery Class

Nursery Class

 I could recall my nursery class, on behalf of few things I remember but no one believes that how is it possible to remember memories of early childhood.

The first thing I daily asked my father was about the car whenever he came to pick me from school I would ask him are you coming on his car or the one from office. My concern was if he is on his car he might stay with us for lunch but not in the case of official one.

The other thing which is very hurting is the day when the teacher asked me to finish my lunch in the break time. The story is my governess at school use to feed me my lunch which I never finished. I always bring some lunch back to home. One day class teacher announced that no kid will go to governess for lunch, yet instead, everyone would be finishing own. I started eating bite by bite and soon I came to know that I am eating it myself and can never finish it. So I started crying loudly. And also before taking lunch to school I was taking my feeder full of milk and I could have taken that regularly if me fellows would not have teased me.

Another thing I recall was the day when my parents brought me a two piece suite of corduroy in brown colour with silver buttons. When my mother wore me that suit my pants were too loose to fit on my waist. Somehow everyone at home managed to fix that around my waist. In that struggle, I got late from school and latecomers had to sit a little away from the on time students and I was too embarrassed on that day of my school.

One more thing to tell is the day I lost my rubber in my classroom and noticed when I started my homework. I simply declared I would only finish my work when I get my rubber. So I went to market with my uncle and bought like the lost one. But the hilarious part of the story is when I entered home I saw few pencil lines on walls by my younger brothers. I started rubbing those lines till my uncle came after parking the car and I had lost half of my rubber in size.

I want to know if anyone else has something stupid and funny like this, share in comments.

Einstein and Music

Einstein and Music

Walter Issacson wrote in his book Einstein His Life and Universe:

His mother, an accomplished pianist, also gave him a gift at around the same time, one that likewise would last throughout his life. She arranged for him to take violin lessons. At first he chafed at the mechanical discipline of the instruction. But after being exposed to Mozart’s sonatas, music became both magical and emotional to him. “I believe that love is a better teacher than a sense of duty,” he said, “at least for me.”Soon he was playing Mozart duets, with his mother accompanying him on the piano."

Later on different public occasions, he played music especially Mozart.

Weathering for Climate Change

Weathering for climate

I read an article on Scientific America related to prevention methods of global warming by pulling carbon from the air. The article writer cited process of weathering for prevention of global warming.

According to this weathering process, farmers will spread silicate rock grains in soil. There would be some heavy duty system involved to ground silicate rocks to mix with soil. As the theory is mixing rock silicate grains will speed up the chemical process with carbon dioxide in the air and produce phosphorus and potassium to increase the growth of the plant.

But in my point of view, this method of prevention will help firstly by absorbing carbon dioxide for a chemical reaction. And secondly, the grown plants will increase the chances to cool down the temperature of the earth. Though no idea of the dark part of this prevention method despite the one I know is the cost of grinding silicate into grains.

 Further studies are awaited for the dark part of chemical reactions of this technique. But up till now this seems to aid this warming earth

She handed over to me a paper and asked me how I should mark answer of a question written in that. The question was: Write a dialogue between aunt and you discuss studies on the telephone.
