Unforgotten

A Lament Unforgotten is a compelling song by Sanjeev Niles . In this song, Sanjeev and Pabalu Wijegoonawardane   have fused music from the western and eastern worlds to highlight the intensified pain of the irreplaceable loss of a loved one, which can shatter a person’s inner core.  If you are finding it hard to find meaning in your life, and you are trying to paint a smile to the outside world while you are dying inside, PLEASE reach out to someone and get HELP . Don't let your life get caught to the snares of depression . The following is my message to everyone who is finding it hard to gather the broken pieces in your life and be whole again.  Unforgotten                                  When life robs you                                         and tears your soul apart,                                  Let your tears flow                                        but stay strong                                  Fight...

A Memory of Yesterday

I remember ever so long ago, Time can not rob my memories so, For a short time you were there, And vanished Oh! where. You hardly gave me time, To gather memorizes that were mine, But here I am today, With my memorizes not decay. I wonder what it would have been, If life had not changed from scene to scene, But it is not for me to know, As life is a confusing show. You live on at vast, A sweet memory of my past, But life goes on I know, So with it I will go.                                                   --- By Angel Eyes ---  Photo by  Chloe Si  on  Unsplash

Live, Love, and Die Right - Collateral Beauty

Collateral Beauty  is an awesome movie that touches your very soul. It is centered on how to find yourself all over again after a terrible tragedy. However, most importantly it reveals the Love-Death-Time existential triangle that connects every human being. Love - We long for love Time - We wish we had more time. Death - We fear death. Collateral Beauty also draws examples to various peoples lives to make us question whether we are living right, using our time wisely,  and even dying right. Well, in reality with every passing moment we are spending time. Time once spent can never be bought back. Therefore, the question "why" should always linger in our minds. You should always question as to why you do things to get down to the actual motive, question whether it is worth it, and then question as to how you could do things better. Why did I do or say that?   Did I do or say that to keep up with society?  Did I do or say that to shine among my peers? Did I do o

Put Yourself in Their Shoes

Are you sad? Are they sad? How are they handling it? Did you cry when they left? Will you cry when they go? These words are like clichés that we hear now and then when someone dies, gets married and leaves home, goes overseas for higher studies, or even leaves home to start a fresh on greener pastures. How often do we stop to ponder on the words that we utter; especially, in sensitive situations? It is one thing to make chit chat, but what point is conversation without substance. Do we ever stop and put ourselves in their shoes before words leave our mouths?   I hope we all make a conscious effort to THINK BEFORE SPEAKING without intentionally or unintentionally adding salt to other people’s wounds.

BEWARE of Short Dated Medicines Sold at Pharmacies

Always check the expiry date of medicines when you are purchasing it, because it can very  well be short dated (close to the expiry date) or even spoilt. As, my friend's baby was ill she was giving her a prescribed medication which was an oral suspension that she had bought from the  LAUGFS Sunup Supermarket Pharmacy , but  after giving him 6 doses to her horror she figured that the medication was short dated (expiry date was 5/2013) and was spoilt. She had gone immediately and complained regarding the SPOILT MEDICINE and the LAUGFS Sunup Supermarket Pharmacist said that 5/2013 means that the medicine is good till the end of May but on checking the contents of the medicine admitted that it was indeed spoilt and refunded the money. They also said that they will take off all such short dated medicines from the counter. If they had simply taken off such short dated medicines from the counter in the first place they could have always avoided mishaps; but, they are sim

BEWARE of Standard Chartered Bank (SCB)

Don’t we bank our money so that we can have the peace of mind knowing that it is safe, while having the assurance that our money is growing through the interest earned? On the flip side are there not occasions when you need to withdraw a greater part of the money to spend it on some necessity? I one day awoke to the rude shock to discover that my money at Standard Chartered Bank (SCB) had drastically gone down rather than grow. When I checked with the bank they informed me that as my balance was below the stipulated amount (Rs.25,000/-) the bank charged a whooping sum of Rs.650/-per month as "Charges for Non-maintaining minimum balance". In addition I noticed that they had levied another whooping amount of Rs.1250/- as renewal charges for my Standard Chartered Bank (SCB) Debit Card. I personally have never heard of a ridiculous debit card renewal charge. Generally in other banks they simply charge a onetime charge of around Rs.300/- at the beginning when you request for

Live, Love & Laugh

The dawning of each new day is a miracle by itself; but with it brings change that goes unnoticed. After all with each day we are getting a day older, growing up and growing older. Age is just a number so there is no reason to take life too seriously. What is important is that we make the maximum out of life and enjoy it while we can. So make sure that you really LIVE LIFE to its fullest without being too caught up in the rat race of life because,  Yesterday is a memory, Tomorrow is a dream All you have is here and NOW. So LIVE , LOVE and LAUGH ……..
