HOBBIES

The last show I binged: The Social Dilemma on Netflix

I spend a lot of time thinking about: Ukraine, Africa, climate change, narcissism, zoology, botany, education, teaching, history, geography, humanitarian rights, cats, cuisines, indigenous people, cinema, angels, fairies, travel, cultures, poverty, how to prevent war, inclusiveness, ableism, disability rights, water crisis

I like to take pictures of: cats, nature, street life, nature, animals, food, festivals

My favourite conspiracy theory: Angels and fairies exist

Last video I watched on YouTube: Who are the Maori people of New Zealand?

I should spend less time: On Whatsapp

  Goddesses of wisdom Goddess Saraswati, draped in white garments, perched on a lotus, with her snow-white swan vehicle, dispels the darkness of ignorance with the light of knowledge. Her annual worship is tomorrow [5 February 2022]. Here are other goddesses of wisdom from around the world: Benzaiten ( 弁才天 or 弁財天 ):              She’s among the seven lucky deities of Japan and associated with water. What a graceful goddess of beauty, logic, wisdom, arts, music, dance and wealth she is! Many of her temples and shrines are built close to the sea coast.

A fiery warrior she has a wise old owl perched on her shoulder. Minerva: Highly esteemed on the Roman pantheon of gods; she’s praised for her wisdom.   She’s also the goddess of poetry, arts, handicrafts, commerce...

  Inclusive Playgrounds Pictures of wheelchairs, crutches, and ramps generally get less likes on social media by a mainstream crowd. Many of them erroneously think that they all represent a situation which is tragic, so the like should be skipped. They little understand that all of these are actually positive images as they encourage mobility and inclusiveness. Able people often use   regressive phrases like ‘confined to a wheelchair’ instead of ‘wheelchair user’. They don’t gauge that for a disabled person, it’s helping them move instead of imprisoning them. It’s often assumed in schools that kids with disabilities need to sit on a bench during physical education classes, and only watch on as other children play and have fun, during his/ her school tenure. There was a boy in our school who had lost a limb. However, he stood along with his class in sports drill, and participated and races. He finished last in sprints, but still took part. Once, I heard a child say, “Oh, I ...

  The Raven BY  EDGAR ALLAN POE Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore—     While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door—             Only this and nothing more.” The main difference was that I had this dream at noon when the sun was high in the sky. A raven was really cawing, refusing to stop. The black crow became a close relative who has always invalidated me. Her shouting was synonymous with the ebony bird cawing. I saw our garden in Papua New Guinea. It was a bare lawn. I planned a beautiful orchard and garden out there. Then I was taken to a cubby flat with a small verandah where I wished to have a few pot plants. Whatever I had sown was destroyed by this relative. ...
