Books Recommended by Literature Enthusiasts. Wednesday, June 25, 2014. Reflections: The Whale: In Search of the Giants of the Sea. I regard whales as truly gentle beasts of the sea with so much enigma around them. So, this acclaimed book was an apt gift from my husband who is fascinated with me being fascinated with whale watching. The author frames most of the book using Moby Dick. As his muse. I definitely enjoyed most of the book, but those parts of Moby Dick. It was a wonderful resonance! The writing...

Books Recommended by Literature Enthusiasts. Monday, October 20, 2014. All I can hear through my mind. over and over. at least for now. All around me are familiar faces. Bright and early for their daily races. And I find it kind of funny. I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. I find it hard to tell you. I find it hard to take. When people run in circles it's a very very. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A Tribute to Cooking. I mostly write about. Did not like the book.

Bunch of strangers, who are not really strangers since they work at the same company as you and you often see them once in like 6 months maybe. They get into the elevator. You have to be nice to people, they work in the same building as you do and though you may never run into them again, you never know right? Then there are those who ought...

8220;If the doors of perception were cleansed, everything would appear as it is - infinite”- William Blake. Thursday, January 13, 2011. 1 Earthquake devastates Haiti. Surprised at how many natural calamities strike earth each year, we are really testing the tolerance limit of our planet, aren’t we? It’s high time we drop some irrelevant research and invest in finding planets we can move people to, that would certainly make earth happy. 2 BP Oil Rig explodes off Louisiana gulf coast.

The Mind's Language: Self Worth
http://pastel-moods.blogspot.com/2014/08/self-worth.html
Books Recommended by Literature Enthusiasts. Sunday, August 03, 2014. How does one measure their worthiness? In terms of the roles they play? Child, spouse, sibling, friend, colleague, parent, grandparent, boss, employee? The activities they do? The things (material and otherwise) they receive or amass? An interconnection of all of the above to make a delicate web of worthy, meaningful existence? And what if, at one or point or another, stuff happens in life, and all of the above crumble? How does it end?

Books Recommended by Literature Enthusiasts. Thursday, July 17, 2014. Popularity: A fresh perspective. I have realized after several years of denial, that your popularity and your ability to be at the right place at the right time determine most things in life. It's not about quality. It's not about persistence or hard work or diligence. It's not the least bit about virtues or ethics. If one has true talent with popularity, the sky is the limit, or rather, the end of the Universe is their limit. Everyone...

Books Recommended by Literature Enthusiasts. Tuesday, September 23, 2014. While researching and reading on something entirely different, less-than-perfect search results led me to this paper. And I couldn’t help reading it, because the content of this paper is something that I have often thought about. But to the majority of us, the majority of the time, they are distracting indulgences that subtly and deeply latch onto our insecurities and vices. I have seen this shift in me, and it has scared me; i...

Books Recommended by Literature Enthusiasts. Wednesday, March 19, 2014. The Story of Krishna - Part I. My exercise is to focus and write on just one character’s journey through life. It’s not a story, just a character sketch, that is seemingly long and endless, now that I have begun writing. Yes, there is redundancy and need for editing, so please feel free to give me feedback for improvement! The Story of Krishna. Krishna didn’t mind waking up early, didn’t mind staying indoors and. Krishna couldn’...

Continuing from where I left off in my previous post, I actually did manage to read a few non-fiction books - cover to cover - and that's saying something. About the books, that is. So among the few that I read, I recommend the below two books. Oliver Sacks and his books need no introduction. How do we pull out compositions from the brain and store different notes in the abstractness of our neurons?
