KINDNESS

I would like to narrate a story through this poem.It's about ...Just read it yar..

When you walk on the pavement, if you see a poor li'l girl

sitting under a street lamp,'begging for happiness'

And if you spare some change and a smile for her,

then you are kind,

On the way back from your work, if you see that girl

still sitting there, and if you spend some time with her,

then you are kind,

If you ask her where her home is, and 'locate' it,

then you are becoming kind again.

In the next morning when you surprise her

with a cute li'l frock, you are kind,

In the evening if you argue with the psychopathic person, whom

she calls 'pa', about her schooling,

and the next day if rescue her to an orphanage,

and make frequent visits,

........

i know......

you can be more kind,

On one fine day if you drive your car with her,

to many wonderful places where she has never been to,

and buy curios for her and...

while returning if you buy two meals and

when she is lying down on the front seat beside you,

if you reveal that her trifles had been packed and

loaded in the car....

i understand that she is going to get

the most kind lady as her sister,

i also understand that god is not that cruel

to let you be alone ...........

 .............

i donnoo....whether i can find such a lady..

but i know there is such a God.

After installing ubuntu 10.10 desktop version on my new system along with windows7 with the expectation to have the wired internet connection without any trouble both in windows and linux i got stuck again without internet access.
I switched to windows again for internet,blaming my inefficiency.
After two days got an insight to check the firewall settings.My bad!!that was the click.That was the problem dear friends.

If you find the network manager icon showing everything related to internet conenection is perfect but the internet access, just try this command in the terminal.

>>sudo ufw disable

This will disable the firewalls enabled.

AN AUTOGRAPH FROM WAYANAD

It would be embarrassing to pass by a person with the doubt in mind that the person is a familiar film star.We may slow down then and throw some innocent glances at her repeatedly.On realizing that we were right  we may look down at our wrist watch to suppress our excitement. In-fact the trekking in Chembra was something like that.I have read the name Chembra somewhere in my geography text along with Anamudi and Western ghats.I was getting embarrassed and excited while scaling this beautiful and familiar star.

                         

She remains as the second highest peak in western ghats respecting her height of 2100m from sea-level.When i was in wayanad from the getgo itself the heights of Chembra was compelling me for a conspiracy to scale it.As planned, with my friends i started the trekking in Chembra.A guard was there with us for guidance.He described the peak to be one of the most biologically diverse forest in asia.He told that it was a place warned by the nature many times by landslides and heavy rain.That soil and wind have spoiled the pages of many 

life-books.I felt a lump of cold air stuck in my throat.I refused to make a sudden move.The guard thankfully and proudly told that Chembra  has its own pharmacy within.Chembra moutain is the abode of many special and rare medicines and highly poisonous drugs too.I gave a congratulating glance to the peak.We reached the heart shaped lake in the peak.It is a natural fresh-water lake and something symbolic.
Climbing up is pretty difficult enough to feel jealous about the people coming down.Luckily i found a hand to hold safely. The lovely Chembra was providing its own green clothing and wide shoulder to lift me up.I climbed up enjoying the spirit of team work.

Pushing and pulling many small pebbles to pretty huge rocks we found our target.The 2100m high chembra peak point.wow!!!.........
The clouds were waiting to give us a handshake for our brave effort.Their innocent white color was also reminding about the humility one should have even when holding a high position.After the conversation with the clouds we bade adieu with Chembra giving a kiss on her forehead.The clouds accompanied us waving till the first declination.We descended the heights cuddling the vegetations...
Now lying on my bean bag, ruminating the memories of wayanad i find something - an autograph from wayanad in my one-paged autograph book.
