Sand sculptures by Sudarsan Pattnaik from India

He says that people gather round to watch him create sand sculptures on the beach at Puri.

The two basic building ingredients, sand and water, are available in abundance on a sandy beach, so most sand play takes place there, or in a sandpit. Tidal beaches generally have sand that limits height and structure because of the shape of the sand grains. Good sand sculpture sand is somewhat dirty, having silt and clay that helps lock the irregular shaped sand grains together.

Sand castles are typically made by children, simply for the fun of it, but there are also sand sculpture contests for adults that involve large, complex constructions.

Dear fantastic girl ,,,,, a Little Butterfly told me ,,,

Dear Fantastic Girl,

You are just learning….and you will be learning for the rest of your life. Sometimes we learn things best from our mistakes…sometimes we learn things best from studying…sometimes we learn best from watching others.

Just remember that EVERYONE is learning and everyone is in a different place in their learning.

Give yourself a break when you mess up or when you don’t know all of the answers….give your parents and your teachers and your friends and your siblings a break when they mess up too. 

It will make life so much happier for everyone if we all just remember that we are ALL just learning…every single day.

You are so very loved.

It's your life ,,

Everyone has an opinion about what you should do with your life, don't they?

Today is the day to forget outside opinions and to embrace your own peculiar truths and dreams.

Today is the day to go for it.......

Even if it makes you look like a freak.

If your heart is telling you to do it, and your heart just won't give up...

Even if it's been telling you the same things for years and years and years.......

You probably haven't done it because of your fears of the opinions of others.

You are never going to make everyone happy, ever.

To live a bold and uncommon life, you are probably going to turn an lot of heads and make a lot of other heads shake in disbelief about the path you have chosen for yourself.

In the end, you will never regret listening to your own deepest truth, even when this means shutting out almost every other voice.

Our deepest truths are our highest selves...coming from places of authenticity and love and light and joy.....how could that ever be a bad thing?

To be a lady ,,,

You don't have to show your attitude  to be a Lady

It's in your easy smile with grief inside

And in the way you share private matters with only those closest to you

It’s how you truly care your loved ones

It’s how you manage things in daily life

It's how you sit

And how you stand

It's how you treat others

And how you carry yourself

It's so much more than an attitude

It's who you are.

Why do we shout in anger

"Why We Shout In Anger"

A Hindu saint who was visiting river Ganges to take bath found a group of family members on the banks, shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his disciples smiled 'n asked.

'Why do people shout in anger shout at each other?'

Disciples thought for a while, one of them said, 'Because we lose our calm, we shout.'

'But, why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You can as well tell him what you have to say in a soft manner.' asked the saint

Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the other disciples.
Finally the saint explained, .

'When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other to cover that great distance.

What happens when two people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly, Because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is either nonexistent or very small...'

The saint continued, 'When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper 'n they get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other 'n that's all. That is how close two people are when they love each other.'

He looked at his disciples 'n said.

'So when you argue do not let your hearts get distant, Do not say words that distance each other more, Or else there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return.'
