In memoriam: 8th October....8:52

The Breath of New Hope

Day and night I shall swim
In the sweetness – hope – river.

May my mind every morning become
As beautiful as hope – dawn – rays

Peace begins
When expectation ends.

Each sacred hope
Is a blessingful gift
From Heaven’s heart.

Hope abides; therefore I abide.
Countless frustrations have not cowed me.
I am still alive, vibrant with life.
The black cloud will disappear,
The morning sun will appear once again
In all its supernal glory.

Hunza Hangover !!!

HHHHHHHUUUUUUUUNZZZZZZZZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!Forget Murree and Nathiagali, Hunza is the place to BEE ANDD SEEEE !!!! IT"S SOOooO BEAUTIFUL !! Gosh, I still can't get over the trip nor the beauty of that place and its fresh air. It just keeps getting better as you climb higher and higher all the way upto the Khunjerab Pass, which is the Pakistan-China border ( 14,000 feet above sea level!!! WooOohoo I've managed to touch the two extreme points of the country! Western part of Pakistan remains...anyone wants to come along?) As for the duration of the journey, well it was one heck of a SCENIC 30 hour bus-ride !


We managed to cover quite a bit in Hunza; visiting the Baltit and Altilt fort, having pancakes and coffee at ' Cafe De Hunza ', visiting the viewpoint where the Karakoram, Himalayas and Hindukush Mountain ranges meet, jeep-rides to Eagle's Nest ( one of the highest viewpoints in Hunza where you get a panoramic view of the Hunza Valley below) , clinging onto my friend for dear life while climbing a mountain to see the glacier! Picture this : rocky mountain to your left, a 2 feet wide path beneath your feet and a sharp never-ending drop to your right ! It was shit scary ! Seeing the numerous peaks , the prominent ones being Rakaposhi, Lady Finger and Cathedral..and the list goes on and on and on of the many FUNZ !!....as they say in Hunza , Khosh!! Just see the photos below :

Song of the moment: SEXY BACK !

Farewell Croc Hunter !

Steve Irwin, or Croc Hunter as he's more popularly known , died on Monday while filming at the Great Barrier Reef. A stingray's barb pierced his chest. I was really sad to hear about his death as I really wanted to meet him one day in Australia but alas that's not going to happen now. He's going to be missed the world over for I've never seen a man with so much energy and passion towards animals as he had. It was electrifying! Animal Planet won't be the same without his tv shows and his very famous , " Crikey ! "

Farewell Steve ! You were an inspiration to millions of animal lovers across the globe!

Dear Dad...

A father passing by his teenage daughter's bedroom was astonished to see the bed was nicely made and everything was neat and tidy. Then he saw an envelope propped up prominently on the centre of the pillow. It was addressed "Dad". With the worst premonition, he opened the envelope and read the letter with trembling hands.

Dear Dad,

It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you, but I'm leaving home. I had to elope with my new boyfriend Randy because I wanted to avoid a scene with Mom and you. I've been finding real passion with Randy and he is so nice to me. I know when you meet him you'll like him too - even with all his piercing, tattoos, and motorcycle clothes. But it's not only the passion Dad, I'm pregnant, Randy said that he wants me to have the kid and that we can be very happy together. Even though Randy is much older than me (anyway, 42 isn't so old these days is it?), and has no money, really these things shouldn't stand in the way of our relationship, don't you agree? Randy has a great CD collection; he already owns a trailer in the woods and has a stack of firewood for the whole winter. It's true he has other girlfriends as well but I know he'll be faithful to me in his own way. He wants to have many more children with me and that's now one of my dreams too. Randy taught me that marijuana doesn't really hurt anyone and he'll be growing it for us and we'll trade it with our friends for all the cocaine and ecstasy we want. In the meantime, we'll pray that science will find a cure for AIDS so Randy can get better; he sure deserves it!!

Don't worry Dad, I'm 15 years old now and I knowhow to take care of myself. Someday I'm sure we'll be back to visit so you can get to know your grandchildren.

Your loving daughter,
Rosie


At the bottom of the page were the letters "PTO". Hands still trembling, her father turned the sheet,and read: 'PS: Dad, none of the above is true. I'm over at the neighbor's house. I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than my report card that's in my desk centre drawer. Please sign it and call when it is safe for me to come home.
I love you Dad! '
