Good Morning Café

Do u know what? I am having some problem these days (well it was always there).  I don’t wanna do anything. That’s why I
wasn’t here yesterday. BTW I need some good luck today and tomm; so do please wish me.

 

Loote: whats up bud? I guess u r back in ur shelter (kennel or Den?) How are gals treating u theses days? From the day one
in this café, almost, everyday I am hearing u being associated with some gals. Are you slowing up these days? Or, is it becoz
there aren’t anyone left;)? Hows ur masters going on? BTw, what are u mastering on? Well, I am not asking those weekend
stuffs;)

Sndy: Hello Motti Di… What are u cooking for us today?

Haddock: It was bit hectic yesterday…. How’s life treating u? Hope u r making loads of money like Uncle Scruge…

Danny: I seriously wish that Ausies would get thrasing both in test and one dayers. Not that, I am a big fan of Indians
but I would love see them loosing from anyone. If you are in some aboriginal’s boomerang competition (aussie version of
nascar, u know local:p) as oppose to Cricket, just skip those lines.

Don’t get confuse with the thread. Infact it was maghne sankranti written over there. It’s a day when u can ask money with

anyone. You didn’t? Oh you loosed some serious money there. I got 500 bucks….

But there is smthing called Maghe Sankranti which is also known as Makara Sankranti.

Sankranti means to go from one place to another place (to change direction). It also means one meets another. The time
when the sun changes direction from one constellation (of the zodiac) to another is known as Sankranti.

Transition of the Sun from Sagittarius to Capricorn during the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere (Uttarayana) is
known as Makar sankranti.

This is the day when the sun begins its northward journey. It usually falls in the middle of January. For the people of the
northern hemisphere, the northward path of the sun marks the period when the sun is getting closer and closer to them, when
the days are getting longer, and it is becoming warmer and warmer.

To Hindus, the sun stands for knowledge, spiritual light and wisdom. Makara Shankranti signifies that we should turn
away from the darkness of delusion in which we live, and begin to joyously let the light within us shine brighter and brighter.
We should gradually begin to grow in purity, wisdom, and knowledge, even as the sun does from this day.

In fact, the sun itself stands for all the ideals of the festival. Its message is that of light, unity, equality and true selflessness.
These are the ideals of Karma Yoga. Hence, the sun is the greatest Karma Yogi. Does it ask any reward for all that it gives to us? If it stops shedding its light, we are doomed to death. If we learn this one lesson from the sun, our lives will shine with divine lustre like that of the sun.

 

 I copied it from another site. So please don’t make me to explain it.

 

Nails: I agree with Danny. Don’t put those food pics. I am here sitting in my chair, waiting for the clock to tick 5,
hungry like a voracious larvae, come to café to forget that hunger and guess what, there is a picture of gajar ko haluwa…. 
Now that is cruel.. Hope you and ur nails are fine. Sofa ma thokiyera bhachiya chaina hola. ( this was smthing I always used to
hear from my sis…lol)

 

 For other guys: Hello and enjoy ur day like monkeys in Swayambhu :p…
