Standing on the earth:


He thinks as he stands beneath the staggering scope of a billion Suns strewn at least 10,000 light-years across from horizon to horizon, trying to embrace it:


"How small we are; even the largest of his personal problems seem trivial by contrast."
(The book: Orbit. Author: John J. Nance.)

That was a lovely story, where a person happens to go on a travel in earths orbit. That person enjoys the earth from the vessel Intrepid.

From up above the earth:

Here our friend @Astro_Soichi  who is in Long duration space flight from December 2009 to June 2010 on the International Space Station, gives us fantastic picture of our earth from high above. More about his profile: http://iss.jaxa.jp/en/

The Big Bang Theory.

He is robbed including his pants. He can’t fix himself to change in life. He calls Leonard. — Girmit (^‿^) (@cgBalu)   🚆 → 🚉 → 🚆 → 🚉 A funny moment from  The Big Bang Theory  (Season 8, Episode 1). Sheldon decides to tour American cities by train. New York. Arizona. A few others. But there is a Sheldon twist. He never actually goes into the cities. He remains inside trains and railway stations, orbiting them like a cautious satellite. Then disaster strikes. He is robbed. Everything goes. Even his pants. And Sheldon being Sheldon, he cannot recalibrate his personality. So he does the only logical thing in his universe: he calls Leonard. ❤😎

Happy blogging.

The Good and the Bad at the moment! GOOD:Google adsense has come to my blog. So more blogs today. Mobike - oil changed. New battery also. Answer to the quiz referred in the posting Evening posting is: The third. Lions that haven't eaten in three years are dead. Here is the second quiz: A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be? Answer definitely in the next posting. If only I could write so as to attract more comments the blogging affair would be fantastic. I learnt to write the html code seriouly today to make new window to open. In this posting evening posting would open in the new window.The html tags are like this: A href="http:new window" target=_blank /A The thing is that I should close the tags. I also went to some positive thinking sites through google ads. BAD:Mo bike mechani...

66 😎

66. A number that once sounded distant. Now it sits quietly beside me, sipping morning air. This is not a fitness routine. This is not a medical prescription. This is a conversation with the body, before the world starts talking. Minute 0–2: Waking Up Without Arguments I don’t jump out of bed. I negotiate. A slow turn. Feet touch the floor. The hips complain softly — not rebellion, just a reminder: “Ease into the day.” I smile. We’ve known each other long enough. Minute 3–6: Gentle Movements — No Heroics A few knee bends near the wall. Hip circles — small, like drawing commas in the air. Marching in place, as if I’m late for nothing. This is not exercise. This is oiling old hinges. The body responds politely. Minute 7–11: Walking — The Best Medicine Slow. Then moderate. If the weather is kind and yesterday’s dinner was lighter, I allow myself a gentle upward slope. No speed targets. No apps judging me. Just footsteps, breath, and that quiet joy of still being able to move forward. Minu...
