Choices in Life

hello there to you all again.. this post is not completely what I write but then something that struck me... Its an email that I got, but then it just touches your heart you know... It shows that a choice that you make may make a thousand people unhappy but one person happy... a person who would never get another chance.. that i would say is worth more than satisfying a thousand other people!! read on and give your comments...  WOULD YOU HAVE MADE THE SAME CHOICE IF YOU WERE IN A SIMILAR SITUATION???? At a fund raising dinner for a school that serves children with learning disabilities, the father of one of the students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all who attended. After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he offered a question: 'When not interfered with by outside influences, everything nature does, is done with perfection. Yet my son, Shay, cannot learn things as other children do. He cannot understand things as other children do. Where is

Sri Lanka and Porn

hey there... well might be wondering what exactly this post is all about eh?? it also something out of the box from the kind of posts that i post.. well nothing much.. in the recent past there has been a lot of talk in SL about porn or rather pornography... especially internet porn. of course i dont think i need to tell you what porn is eh? if you dont know then its better that you stop reading now and go and find out what porn is and then come back. well all this "halabaloo" in the country started if im not wrong last year.. when the government decided to start banning porn websites in Sri Lanka as they apparently wernt good for the Sri Lankan culture and etc etc.... and starting this year the police along with the TRC have started banning porn websites... that too in batches of 50 or 100... good.. very good... then there were news reports during last week where local porn actors and actresses were identified and their photos published on newspapers and apparently few of

Image
its been long since i wrote so decided to write something to write!! and indeed its a very interesting topic to write about!!! and as the title suggests im writing abt the day that Colombo, the Financial Capital of Sri Lanka was submerged in water after just 10 hrs of rain!!! what a day it was!! it all started on the 10th of November at around 8.00pm i guess when it started with a mild rain and then the thundering started.. along came the lightening also which is obvious (:P)... then the rain started to grow gradually... by around 11.00pm the thundering and lightening stops but not the rain which shows no signs of stopping... colombo goes to sleep... come next day and colombo wakes upto the news that Colombo has come to a half halt as many areas in Colombo have gone underwater due to the rain... roads all blocked.. schools closed after children come to skool in the morning for the term tests (term tests for public skools were to start on this day).. offices closed.. vehicles floating

Commonwealth Games... a multi-sport even organized once in every 4 yrs by the Commonwealth Games Federation where teams from member nations of the Commonwealth of Nations participate. Most of the nations are those that were ruled by the British Monarch in the past. 54 countries are members of the Commonwealth of Nations but around 70+ teams usually participate in the games as certain independent states of countries send in separate teams. By now anyone reading this article probably knows that the latest edition of this games is to be held in New Delhi in India starting on the 3rd of October n goes on for almost 2 weeks after which the Commonwealth Para Games will begin in the same venue.

Infrastructure Problems, Health Problems, Accommodation, and mainly Corruption and many more..  During the last few weeks there i havent seen a single day pass by without a news rega
