A young life was abruptly taken away at the age of 18. A freak accident plucked the young university student from his parents, relatives and his friends.
The pain of agony was felt at his funeral service. There was not a single dry eye at the service. His family and his friends gave him a glorious send-off.
On behalf of the young spirit I like to share a poem attributed by an unknown author.
St. Peter was on extended leave so a minor saint was left in charge of the Pearly gates.
The Saint was ordered to get proof of identity before letting anyone into heaven.
First up was Beethoven.
“I need proof of identity” said the saint.
So Beethoven played a few bars of his Fifth Symphony and he was admitted.
Next up was Albert Einstein.
“I need proof of identity” said the saint.
So Einstein explained the theory of relativity and he was admitted.
Next up was George Bush
“I need proof of identity” said the saint.
” But I am George Bush, former President of the United States of America.”
“Sorry, everyone needs proof. Even Beethoven and Einstein needed proof.”
“Who?”
“OK, you can go through”

“Keerimalai- Kerni”
Keerimalai Hot springs, Jaffna, Sri Lanka
The above shot was taken two years ago at Keerimalai – Kerni (hot springs), Jaffna, Sri Lanka.
The hot spring pool is a very well known historical site in Jaffna. The springs are separated for each gender and this picture captures the open-men-well area. The picture shows a typical day at the hot springs when public enjoys a dip.
The wall adjacent to the ocean was open until Tsunami in 2004. Unfortunately Tsunami waves took away few lives while they were bathing in this pool. Since then the a wall has been added as a safety measure (beige colour wall)
The great soul Mahathma Gandhi said:
“You must not lose faith in humanity.
Humanity is an ocean.,
If a few drops of the ocean are dirty,
the ocean does not become dirty

BITTER TRUTH OF HAPPINESS
Happiness is not something ready-made
It comes from your own actions

A Senior Moment!
Modern South Africa has lost his father. The international symbol of the world, admired by young & old, blacks & white has left this earth for a better place.
Rest in Peace Madiba!
Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela born as a tribal prince, who lost his freedom to fight for the freedom of others. Faught for the freedom of the black South Africans against the anti apartheid government of that time and jailed for treason for 27 1/2 years (1964 – 1990) in the notorious prison Robben Island.
Won a Nobel Peace prize in 1993 (shared with de Klerk) and became the first democratically elected black President of the modern South Africa in 1994. He had the great ability to bridge the gap between the blacks and whites of the Modern South Africa. He also became an advocate for fighting against Aids .

I have re-blogged the article which I wrote on this blog in June 2013 while he was admitted at the hospital.
Finally Heaven has got ready to accept the great leader of earth.
There are only a handful of men & women on this earth who became the Masters of the situation and sacrificed their whole lives for the good will of fellow human beings.
Martin Luther King (Jr) from The United states of America, Mahatma Gandhi of India, 14th Dalai Lama in Exile , Mother Theresa of India , Aung San Suu kyi of Burma , Pakistani school girl Malala Yousafzai and Nelson Mandela (Madeba) are few of them.
While I type, the nonagenarian Nelson Mandela of South Africa is fighting for his life in a hospital.
I would like to share some of Nelson Mandela’s quotes below.
