One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.

Don't take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets. The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so...Love the people who treat you right.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Geeta, Just wanted to jump in & say hello to you.. we haven't swapped for ages.....have you re-adjusted since your big trip to the USA.. any new perspectives for you, healthwise???? or any other way for that matter??????? I'll be watching a new Tele series starting tomorrow "The Story of India".. I suspect it'll be a BBC production...I'll be interested to see what sort of 'filter' it is presented through. (British Colonial or POST-British Colonial or from an Indian perspective) I caught a little program on the history of Mumbai last week... I never knew Mumbai was a series of islands that sort of got 'filled in' to become a huge city. It had a lot of info about the stunnoing array & variety of food establishments there... especially along the beach front. Every Monday I've been doing Tai Chi & I was thinking about you & Yoga .....I find Yoga poses very hard for my stiff body but I can manage Tai Chi quite well. Do you still practise Yoga... has it been part of your life always???? It's odd how members of this Forum come to mind at all sorts of times when we are all so far removed from one another physically !

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hi , I am doing quite well, have been having a stubborn viral infsection since a fort night or more, may have to go to the pulmonologist since i seem to be rquiring more o2 on exertion. I have adjusted to my old routine after returning, at present the weather is horrid 38 deg Celcius very humid, but i thank my stars i have to stay home and live in comfort while there are millions out there working hard under the merciless scorching sun. Nice to kow you will be watching Indian stuff on the TV. I have an Aust connection too, my kids both my son and daughter-in-law go to Melbourne often on their work related assigmnments in fact my DIL is due to go there next week.. She enjoys her stay there and tells me how relaxing it is there, someday i will come there with her and meet you too!! There are many asanas in yoga which are meant for us and they are not difficult , infact i do only pranayamas or breathing exercises everyday and some stretching asanas .unforunately i started practising late ,had i begun earlier this disease would not have progressed so far, now i am very regular , keeps me fresh and fit.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Goody, now I can get Mr Google onto you Ms Geeta...Navi Mumbai...that rolls off the tongue very well I think! Depending on which road we take Melbourne is more or less about 1700 Klms away... 2 days drive or about 2 hours by Plane on a direct flight from Brisbane. (It takes about 2 1/2 hours for us to drive up to Brisbane to catch that Flight!) The BBC program on India was so interesting... it was looking into India's pre-history & some recent archaelogy finds in a Desert to the North... all about the Rig Vedas & the importance of Horses in unlocking the time scale & the Mahabharata & the evolution of Sanskrit. They seemed to be saying that Sanskrit is now known to be the common denominator of all Modern Language as evidenced by common words such as the words for Mother & Father...I could follow it as I was watching but now I want to see it all over again. The Bookshop (called Noahs Arc) I worked in for over 13 years had a very broad range of books & we stocked lots of Indian material written in English. There is a constant trail of folk from here who go to India to study & do retreats. Aren't grandchildren so precious for us....they watch us very carefully I find. Are you feeling any better.. please let us know how you're getting on Geeta... once we hear someone is unwell we don't stop worrying until we KNOW that they're BETTER!
