elephant and orchid

what would an elephant know about an orchid? Forget the question if elephant thinks and thinks about itself as something!! Probably it would be that green thingy on top of that big green thingy. Again not sure if that green is green! May be it has its own way of calling things and its own way with them. Elephant would treat everything else same and would continue to live its “big” way all the time just as. Wonder if the planet is full of elephants and their number starts to increase and with their limited knowledge of “connectedness” which makes them think they know everything.. etc. Also Wonder if they would still see the connection.. theirs and everything to everything else around them.

Well, elephants or humans … story is the same!!

anyways here is a Vanda from Elephant land.

Jan 1sts

To start a new year, this Spathoglottis was here with a bloom Though tis just a marker in time, though time and again it reminds one to stop for a while and look where one is going, the learning, the enthusiasm, the interest, the desire, won’t let one slow down, And this Harmony is the One!

And the visit in search of a native plant ultimately ended up good, with one species being spotted may be I should visit the place, B M Betta again in may-june. Hopefully would see it bloom as well. There were a few more plants too and now could spot only one. May be I missed the other spots or may be they are gone! Looking at things all around, wondering what this mad world is all about! Somehow hear these words “dreams in which I am dying are the best I ever had” from Mad World in the back of the mind. They are worth dying for, or else what good the life is! Also happen to hear Kazim Koyuncu’s track in Edge of heaven, this is played when Nejat is back in Turkey and feels the home around and inside. I guess I can feel it too, something when one is close to the ground and inside its spell.

Though there are various markers in time, and there is a new day everyday. And 365 Jan 1sts in a year, and don’t bother about the world.. world has got a lot of catch up to do.
