Welcome pals!!

What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows.

No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.

No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.

No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance.

No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.

A poor life this is if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

‘IRMA is a nature lover’s paradise’ -true, but it has got much more in store, for everyone who wants it. U got a love for studying-there’s plenty of that(undoubtedly!); u wanna sit n talk(aka bakar), there is plenty of tea as a catalyst; u simply want to sit idle n stare at faces, there are plenty of faces too…Every day we see, listen and say. That’s the front end of the picture. At the backend are thoughts, observations, ideas- some that we have held for a long time now, and some that have been generated in the last few months of our course in IRMA; some that were scribbled somewhere (diary, FB, blog included!), some that were shared with others and some that still sit in the back of our minds.

How about we let some of those ideas, observations, thoughts, knowledge see the light of the day, let them be read by others we know (n those we don’t know), be thought upon, be appreciated (or the opposite!). In this process, we may catch a viewpoint, debate over an issue, understand a concept, share some knowledge, question a reality and appreciate the simple act of courage of a person having put his/her thoughts across.

Isn’t this like that Win-Win situation we learned few days back??!!
