Thought of a shadow taunt me!

A shadow from the past
A Graphical Present
To a Blurred Future

Uncertainty looms all about
Past, present and future
The actions so called
Justified by the mind
That day! Till today!
Yet a thought linger with doubt
Am I right? Are they?
Will I ever do right?
Would they? Could they?


Questions I have
Reasons they giveThoughts come by
Taunt me today

Different Birthday Experiance! (Good? Bad? I have no idea!)

Well saturday was my Birthday! Was it a good one? On the day I thought definetely not the best of Birthdays's I've had. Why?

Let me start the srory at the begining of things, I went to Rajagiriya with my mom to get some work done. Then on my way back she insisted on me getting a packet of lunch from this place, instead of me buying it from near office (my usual spot). Since I didn't like any of the curries they had I ordered a Vegitable Fried Rice. When I was going to have it my friends were like "you should not be eating so much of oil and chilli woman! you have gastrities!", but then I was too lazy to listen to them and buy a new pack. So I ate a bit and threw away the rest.

Next day when I woke up I had blisters on my knees, thought it was an insect bite, but when I started itching and scratching towards the end of the day it turned out to be a nightmare. Where I could not stop the scratiching, and my face swallen to twice the size it normally is. Turns out that I had gotten a food posoning and it lasted for three days until after my birthday, and I spent the best part of my birthday Intching and scratching and getting an injection in the hospital.

My mom made sure she took me to the temple before she took me to the hospital, how ever one wish I wanted to really come true on this Birthday was to have good health. Unfortunatly I was not that lucky. Although it did go down by the time I got home in the night, it lasted till the next day. The medicine had to be continued for two more days afterwards.

I still dont know the full capacity of the side effects both the sickness and the medication had left me, other than the fact that it improved my appitite, darkend my skin and left my feet swelling a bit (not sure if this is because of this or another sickness).

Any how, I am looking for ways and means to console my self, telling my self that:
  • There is always a first time for everything (this is the first time I got sick on my Birthday)
  • Everything Happens for the best (what ever good that came off this situation, I am yet to find out)
  • You should always experiance the worst of situations in order to appreciate the best of them (This is for sure and I'll make sure Ill make the most of the situations when I am in good health and whine about life less)
  • Birthday is afterall just another day (-_*)
All in all it was good experiance!

Glimps at the past, Tribute to an Old Friend!

Remember I mentioned about feeding Ganga in Gangarama? As promised I found the pics of the Parrots and Raja, so let this post be a tribute to Raja, who was the 2 Longest Tusker in Asia (or south Asia) while he was alive. His life span was about 46 years, if my memmory serves me right.

Being so old, I Stil considered him to be cute! Let me tell you why!

During the time I would visit the gangarama Temple in the early hours of the day, I and a few more who visited the temple would buy cooking leaves, such as Kankug, Mukunuwanna & somedays I'd bring Rasakinda from home to feed him. The moment Raja see he bundles of leaves he would start dancing, I mean swinging from side to side with and a joyful, almost hopping movement. This look so cute! Then when feeding he'll simply grab the entire bundle in one mouthful, then reach out with the trunk for more. It was a sight to see. I had always called him adorable when he does this. What ever amount of food you give him it is never enough. He'll always want more!

So Here are the pics, with a wish from me for Raja! May you attain Nirvana in another lifetime!






Here are the pics of the Parrots, They give rice to them just before they start the thewawa seromony at 06:30 am. If you visit the temple before they are fed then you will hear them screaming away, "Feed Us! Feed Us!" In their own language.

This is a wonderful sight to see.
