The sun is my major source of energy. I have always wondered why I feel sluggish and depressed when it gets dark, and happier and energetic during the day. Today, I found the answer.. it is Melatonin. I came across the below:
“Lack of exposure to sunlight is responsible for the secretion of the hormone melatonin, which could trigger a dispirited mood & a lethargic condition. Melatonin is only produced in the dark. It lowers the body temperature and makes you feel sluggish.”
Now I know why the sun brightens up my day! I love sunny days

Poornam – A Promise
I remember a song that I was taught in School. It goes like this:
I am a Promise
I am a Possibility
I am a Promise
With the capital P
I am a great big bundle of Potentiality …..

My most favourite prayer … Beautiful in its simplicity and strong in its message. My greatest challenge in life
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
Where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not seek so much
to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
– St. Francis of Assisi (1181–1226)

Have you heard of the Orion ??? It is a constellation .. It is also called The Hunter

Suddenly I found something remarkable !!! …. 3 stars in a row …. that was the belt of the hunter !!! Read the rest of this entry »
