Reading List

   Reading is my favourite hobby. It is nothing less than my passion... As the 2012 is ending, I just want to recollect all the books I came to read this year. Some are re-reads and some new-reads. I had made a collage of some of the books I have read yet.

          I couldn’t add some of these...(don’t know, some problem with editing).

I used to share my books with my friends and colleagues. Most of my books are thus distributed. I also collect books from my friends too. Here is some of them left in the ‘have read’ list. Rest are not with me now L.

          I have left with a small pile of books ‘to be read’. Here is a snap..

Oh! Such a long way to go..!!

  Hoping to finish more in next year.. JJ

Desire…..

Blogathon- count down # 25

   Just sharing something from my reading list..

     Profound desire, true desire is the desire to be close to someone. From that point onwards, things change, the man and woman come in to play, but what happens before- the attraction that brought them together- is impossible to explain. It is ubounded desire in its purest state.

     When desire is still in this pure state, the man and the woman fall in love with life, they live each moment reverently, consciously, always ready to celebrate the next blessing.

      When people feel like this, they are not in a hurry, they donot precipitate events with unthinking actions. They know that, the inevitable will happen, tht what is real always find a  way of revealing itself. When the moment comes, they donot hesitate, they donot miss an opportunity, they donot let slip a single magic moment, because they respect the importance of each second…
