Yeah..the sky is my inspiration..Heres how:i recommend, when you are down, just look up and the blue colour will soothe you giving you some good feeling or the other.
I try not to miss the morning between 6-7 am..the sun is ready to rise and the sky readies for yet another bright day. It tells me to kickstart mine brightly too!
The white clouds zoom around the whole day and the sky seems to be deeper as they cover and uncover the blue hues above..man, like the clouds, as feelings, intense and mild ones..which cover and uncover his dreams,his aspirations, giving others a sneak-peek to knowing what he really is.
The same white clouds turn darker and darker by evening,changing the whole sky above..Man, too, gets entangled in the dark web of emotions and tensions, leaving little space for those bright little joys. But hey, there is always light at the end..so there is in the sky above..The sun shines beautifully for one last time before setting down, giving darkness a chance to wrap up the sky so that he comes back in action the next day.
But above all, the sky never fails to make me smile when i am down. The bright blue colour with white patches really lifts my spirit giving me new heights to conquer.

vocab for the week 4
What is the difference between ‘infiltrator’ and ‘intruder’?
When you enter someone’s property without his consent, you become an intruder. This act may or may not be intentional. You may for example, walk into someone’s property without being aware of it. Perhaps you failed to see the ‘Keep Out: Private Property’ sign.
The burglar who breaks into your house to steal is also an intruder: only in this case, the intrusion is deliberate. Both intruders are performing an illegal act; they are both breaking the law.
The intruders were caught by the students and handed over to the police.
An ‘infiltrator’ always makes use of stealth. He enters an organisation or a country without others being aware of it. The word has a very negative connotation. An infiltrator is usually very cunning and invariably plans everything in advance: one cannot become an ‘infiltrator’ by accident. In this case, you are breaking the law deliberately.
The infiltrators were shot while they were attempting to cross the border.

Thinkin bout why i get irritated so much!
Yawwnn..
Woke up at 6 today and a long forgotten (read almost a month old) task of blogging popped up in my mind before i was fully awake.
Well, the morning seems to be dull,its kinda humid over here. Hope the Sun god will brighten up some lives!
Was thinking about brightening lives over a cup of hot tea with extra milk right now..The first thought that came to my mind was the little boy around 6 years old i saw at a construction site yesterday while on my way to articleship. His skin was tanned, donned only a pair of rugged shorts and a toy doll which he took with him as his bag-pack wherever his legs took him in the area. He looked so cheery in the midst of the construction rubble and sweat tricking down so rapidly to give the water authorities a complex(bad joke). I tried to observe him for a few more minutes but the swift kid disappeared behind the half done building structure. And then I walked down the lane towards my workplace thinking how many lives i managed to brighten up..This led me thinking about my negatives..I get irritated at minuscule matters now a days,dunno why. Basically its not my nature to behave like this but i have observed that i have been losing patience at a rapid speed this week. And I don't express it, in a bid not to hurt the people around for no reason and thus the rubble piles up in my li'l brain contaminating the whole mood. Talked to myself regarding this stupid chameleonic nature of mine..and felt really better..You know what there is actually no damn need to get irritated on things that don't really matter..Simple fact you say..I know I know..But we rarely think about it. Why damage our own self and let our energy go haywire instead of utilizing it towards our goals?! I managed to see the world around me in a different way as I was walking down my workplace. Felt to hop and skip man! And decided not to give these silly small mood swings overpower my beautiful self. Felt nice to help myself all on my own! Yeah I thank that construction kid too..
