Legs in the air sleep

A Pet's Ten Commandments

1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you is likely to be painful.
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.
4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainment, but I have only you.
5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me.
6. Be aware that however you treat me, I will never forget it.
7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.
8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.
9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too, will grow old.
10. On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please. Never say you can't bear to watch. Don't make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because I love you so.

Chewing his way to Glory!!

Yea... this is better but turn it now!

Way to go Fred!

"These are my flip flops"

"tired... time to sleep..."

a red-headed woman

I was sitting in jail with my back to the wall,

And a red-head woman was the cause of it all.

What's your dream car?

I don't have a dream car per se, but I really want to buy an SUV sometime. God knows when that day will come but I love Lexus SUVs, Pajero and desi Safari. But the only one I can afford right now is a Suzuki Gypsy or Mahindra Jeep (that too a second hand one :P). I even had a test drive of 4*4 customized Mahindra Jeep last week which had a gear box of a truck. In fact I plan to blog on that experience very soon. Coz that was one heck of a machine.

The Golden Journey to Samarkand

I'm not into any kind of poetry but somehow this one caught my eye and I really like it. I read these lines in the book: "Beyond the Last Blue Mountain".  It is the biography of JRD Tata.
The book starts with a couple of verses from the following poem by James E. Flecker. 


James Elroy Flecker

THE GOLDEN JOURNEY TO SAMARKAND

We are the Pilgrims, master; we shall go
Always a little further: it may be
Beyond that last blue mountain barred with snow,
Across that angry or that glimmering sea,


White on a throne or guarded in a cave
There lives a prophet who can understand
Why men were born: but surely we are brave,
Who take the Golden Road to Samarkand.


Sweet to ride forth at evening from the wells
When shadows pass gigantic on the sand,
And softly through the silence beat the bells
Along the Golden Road to Samarkand.


We travel not for trafficking alone;
By hotter winds our fiery hearts are fanned:
For lust of knowing what should not be known
We make the Golden Journey to Samarkand.




P.S.: Changing the topic. I really like the new look 'n' feel of my blog. Finally blogger.com has done what it should have done a couple of years back. But... as they say... Better late than never. 
And the photograph on the blog's header is the one I took during my previous visit to the city of dreams - Bombay. Cheerio...
