    Krishna Kumar wrote a new post, Water The Source Of Life On Earth 7 years, 8 months ago

     

    Credit Pinterest.com for the share

    We have come across many scenes where we find in different parts of the world there is acute shortage of water despite there being heavy rainfall during the rainy season. […]

    • As time goes on, more and more people are using a lot of water and the resources becoming scarce. There should be remedies to the shortage or impending shortage of potable water. One is planting of trees, but in some areas, there are no more vacant lots to plant on, mostly were cemented. So the government should enforce tree planting in available areas and prevent illegal cutting of trees.

      Water management should be efficient, and people should abide by the laws on water usage. It is best if they will recycle water.

      • Agree with your suggestions to tide over this problem faced in most cities in different parts of the world. What I find is the people are careless with their attitude. They all would like to complain about the governments and how they are not being provided water by the concerned authorities. But could not care less about their responsibilities as a citizen.

        Government bodies too are lethargic in whatever they do and these people also come from the same society. The only thing is once they get elected the responsibility for which they have come has to be fulfilled which very few are able to do so. Majority of these members are the ones who do not care about the issue that is the sad part. Thank for the inputs.

    • Here in the city where we live, people buys the water they drink. That’s because they want to make sure that the water they drink are safe and clean.

      They have water on their faucets but they aren’t sure if they are potable. Maybe we can but we have to boil them first before we drink them and that’s tedious.

      And that is the situation in the city where I work and also in the next town where we live.

      But not in the hometown where my parents live. There, you can get water straight from the faucet and drink without getting sick. It is safe to drink and clean. It is also so forceful. They can open two faucets at the same time at the sink yet they both have lots of forceful water.

      That’s because the source of their water is from a spring that is being gathered in a cemented big container with a lid. This is always regularly cleaned and checked as to its cleanliness.

      As to trees, our hometown have lots of them compared to the cities which like you said because of urbanization the trees were all nowhere to be found already. Although, it’s a good thing now, that the mayor have already implemented the cleaning of the ditches so flood now is just in one place or two but not in the city proper anymore.

      • Even at our place here we are having to purchase water since the last year. As the water board releases drinking water every five to seven days. So we had to store it and use it carefully, but since some new pipeline works are taking place they have stopped supply and it comes once every 7 days. Hence we are forced to purchase water from outside.

        Regarding the need for water for other purposes like washing, cleaning etc. We have a well since the past 35 years and we draw water from the same. Ours is the only house in the colony which has a well all others have borewell which is a technology which is being misused and abused by many. They dig borewells beyond the prescribed limit. While our house has a garden and water drains directly to the ground when it rains. With others it is not so as they have cemented the surface. Their logic is it is clean and looks neat and they do not have to maintain it as in the case of the garden which we have. Thanks for the information you shared.

    • Thanks for the feedback. Last year in the summer months it was a very bad situation in our country in many of the states. They had to start water trains to supply water to the places where there was sever water shortage. These people also had to subsist on one pot of water for one to two weeks in many places. It was so bad that at some of the places people started fighting for water. It was a desperate situation.

      Governments do not seem to want to act against the people who are the trouble makers as they have to go to them every five years to seek votes and win elections. That is the reason they allow these problem to happen and sit and watch as the situation unfolds. In the end they panic when people get angry and do some patch up work to see that that particular year is done with. Then everything is forgotton conveniently till problem crops up the next year again.

    • water water is all what people need to start a life, its like magic and some people do not appreciate it, really uo feel bad when you see that, its like treature, wel all need to take care good about not to finish.
      it is enough to say that more htan half weight the human is water, be careful with using it all of you

    • here in my country there is a problem with water. In all honesty i believe now they have somewhat gotten control of its usage. in the past communities would have been without water for months sometimes years. In my house in the past we went through the period where there would have been periodic lock offs of water. we had to juggle our work, school and collecting and storing water for our usage. it was really a stressful time for us as there were moments when we had to rush home so we could collect water before it was shut off. thank God we managed and pulled through without any major health issues.

      recently in late november last year the second city receive 4 months of rainfall in one day according to the experts. the pictures and videos of the catastrophe was disheartening. today they are still cleaning up that area.

      • Thanks for participating in this debate. Happy to note that you could tide over the water crisis. In 2018 I have been observing the weather pattern it has become highly unpredictable and huge amount of financial loss has occurred all over the world some places have been flooded while others have heavy snow and some others have no water. Human lifestyle is responsible for this situation. Best wishes and regards.

    Credit Pinterest.com for the share  Food Facts.

    Food is a basic necessity which is required for all living beings to be consumed and gaining energy so that the wheel of life can progress further. We find that […]

    • You are right, there is so much food wasted. If carefully managed, many people will not go hungry and prices of food commodities will go down. This requires efficient post-harvest facilities along with the right technology for the farmers. Biological control of pests like rats should be undertaken. Aside from cats or snakes that feed on rats, farmers should find its breeding places and eradicate them manually. For left-over foods in restaurants, there should be really a local law asking the management to donate to charity or to soup kitchens the left-over but still in good condition food.

      It is sharing and proper management that can help solve food wastage.

      • It is true in our country itself there is not much of awareness even among the educated class who are well off. They feel that since they have paid for the food they can consume how much they want and waste the remaining which is very bad according to meaning. Being a Hindu food according us is nothing but Goddess Annapoornadevi who provides for every living being in life.

        People should appreciate this and see that they do not waste food and abuse this noble Goddess. I really pity these people who call themselves educated. While there many good samaritans who give one fist rice for the purpose of charity from the food they cook for the house. That way the unfortunate can also have food and try for something better for their lives. It is a very complicated problem to eradicate rates. If food is there rats and other rodents are attracted and come immediately. The seem to be very intelligent too.

    • I agree.

    • Thanks for your comment appreciate your participation.

    • Life indeed is so uncertain; we do not know what will happen tomorrow or in the future. Like what you discussed here, having an insurance is a best step to cushion the impact of such unfortunate incidents. It is better to be prepared when we need it like having a health insurance plan.

      • Agree with you. Unfortunately governments and insurance companies do not provide insurance which even the poorest of the poor are able to afford as it is a mandatory necessity for all for all citizens of any country in the world. The inflation and the prices being very high. If any problem occurs it will help those affected.

        Many people also have the notion that having a insurance is equivalent to wasting the morning earned with great difficulty. Hence they avoid taking the same. The premiums too scare away many people from taking insurance. Insurance companies seem to be targeting only those who are well off. And do not consider the poor as worth targeting. If they change this attitude and look at that as a major marked and come up with policies which are according to their needs it will help the poor a lot and the insurance companies too will grow.

    I do not one hundred per cent agree on this statement created by people and agreed by people that one must live life to the fullest for it is too short. Philosophically, how could life be made too short when 24 […]

    • The picture alone can tell man cannot live to the fullest if hunger strikes and if live anywhere as a homeless man.He will never have in mind to live to the fullest,LOL. His mind is full of problems where to sleep the next evening and even day to take a short nap they need help by the President .

    • Living Life to the fullest, for life is too short….I do agree on this particular statement, to a certain extinct. My reason for saying this is because we all make choices in life. Some choices are bad and some choices that we make, are good choices. We are not perfect, so we will eventually fall short sometimes. Being realistic, the decisions that we make in life, on a daily basis, causes us to set ourselves on a path, to either good or bad! It is up to oneself, on which path you will decide to take. What I have learned, is that life is very important! I believe that, the more good choices, the better your life will become. The poor choices that are made throughout one’s life, would determine the outcome of the life that you live.
      In order to live life to the fullest is to keep making good decisions. In my opinion, life is short because of what you make of it. Sometimes, we are put in places or around certain people, to be tested. Being tested towards the decisions that are made. If you choose to go down the wrong path because of the choices that you make in your life, always know that it is never someone else’s fault, it is your fault…the person who is making that choice. Our life can be saved from the wrong choices that we make, therefore if someone offers you a good piece of wisdom, take it! If you are a person that accepts negative and positive criticism, this will be a good deed to have.
      The value of accepting positive and negative criticism is to understand the fact that we are not all perfect and we do not know everything. There are people who been on this earth, longer than you, who is gifted to still be living . In my opinion, I feel that their life expectancy is long because of the choices that they made throughout their life, making their life a meaning or a purpose!
      So I am going to choose to live life to the fullest! I am talking it into existence for my life! Be careful of the decision making in your life and be mindful of the toes that you step on
      in the process. When people are good to you, that is very special to have in your life. There are many people who are not fortunate enough to have a second chance, so every choice that you make should count for something positive in your life!

    • @Detra Abbass, Hi? Thank you for your nice contribution about the idea on this blog if necessary to live to the fullest and you are right. It really depends on the situation like those sickly people, they have to enjoy life despite disabilities for the more that they can help themselves if feeling depressed due to sickness.Life is too short , it is felt by those who already reached the 70’s and so on and so forth.

    Honesty is the best policy. This is one of the right values introduced to us in school. We also nurtured this from our parents at home, in books we read, from the way we oriented ourselves about the importance of […]

    • I stand to say that Honesty is truly the best policy. Its a must for children, I have made sure that I inculcate it in my children. In fact, as communicants, my children know best not to tell a lie. As a couple, I come clean in everything I do, I honestly do not know how to tell a lie, because I will get caught. My hands are always clean is a saying foe telling the truth. Lies will always catch up with you. A friend of mine once lied about her age, in fact when she got her visa, she was so excited, she sent the visa page to me, and voila, the real age appeared. All this while I thought I was older, but it turns out she is older by two years. As I speak right now, the previous year she claimed she would be 40 has suddenly reduced, I guess age is no longer on her side. The truth I must say will always set you free, so its best to always, come clean.

    • Joy E. Ojo, you are a great parent, a great model to your children, That must what parents must do to inculcate onto the minds of their children the value of honesty for they are young and their minds are not yet developed, They need good values to learn and nurture so when become big those learned will never depart from them ( John Locke). A child’s mind is like a blank sheet of paper, he or she must be be taught the right ways and good values of life. Thanks for your very nice and inspiring comment, very much appreciated.

    • It is important for Honesty.Being untruthful will only cause more lies that you would have to tell, to cover up the first lie. Some people are untruthful for many different reasons, in order to get or maintain certain perspectives of a thing.

      In my opinion, Honesty is the key to build good communication and character with people. If people are familiar with you as a honest person, you are respected more. People are most likely going to accept your words of being truthful, on face value.

      When you care about someone, it is very important to maintain honesty. In relationships, being truthful, is the key. Dishonesty will only cause pain for you and your significant other. When a lie is told, usually you have to remember the first lie that you told, in order for your lie to be believable. Eventually, your lies will end up, getting you caught up in losing the people that you care deeply about.

      Everyday, there are a great number of people who are dishonest on a daily basis. Sometimes, people will label you as being fake, because you are considered to be untruthful and your word do not mean a thing. Therefore, in order for you to earn the proper respect, be honest. Lying gets you no where.

      Having a conscience, should avoid untruthfulness to people who you care about. If you do not want people to be hurt because of your lie, then do not be dishonest. The lies that you tell, will definitely cause disruption in your relationship.

      When you are in a relationship, trust is the main key. Trust, Communication and Honesty are the main tools to keep in your relationship. In order to keep the bond with your significant other, maintain being honest. Good piece of advice!

    • True, I have observed one thing about honesty. When one starts lying then one lie follows another and there is not end to the list of lies which a individual would have to take the help of to cover the first lie. It becomes a vicious cycle. It also takes a toll on the person who is doing this and the people with whom he has been doing this.

      This trait of honesty is a very important one to be inculcated since childhood as if a child grows up without learning and appreciating this trait. Then even his children and the others with whom he comes in touch also get into a problem. It difficult to practice but not impossible to perfect. Thanks for the share.

    • Honesty is the best policy. Anywhere you go, whatever you do, if you are guided by honesty, nothing would go wrong. An honest person is liked by many; no lies could twist his principles, his words are trustworthy, even his actions. He is credible.

    • Krishna Kumat, Thank you friend for dropping by and sharing your nice words about this bog. You are right honesty is the best policy. Children should be taught on this so they won;t cheat someday.

    • Erratum: Krishna Kumat :Krishna Kumar

      Sorry friend for the error of your name hehehehe, maybe my eyeglasses were so dimmed,lol. Thanks for your very appreciative thoughts and feelings of this post.Thank you so much. Have a nice Sunday.

    • @Detra Abbass , thanks , very well said, yes honesty can bring a better communication and wholesome trust in a family, group, peer. work place. Honesty is a great virtue that is brought and carried through generation to generation. A society would be in a critical situation if composed of fake members or people.

    • It is not true that we can not fake honesty, lots of double faces do have fake honesty and that show how bad they are and good in what they do, honesty is hard to find in our world and that is sick really, but maybe in the old days the honesty was hard to fake it, but now, it is so easy to fake for some people and so easy to fool good people since good people like to see the good in other people, but let me tell you that this fake honesty can not last, they will be seen for whome they areally are and also they will get falling so badly for the fake honesty and fake personality too, that is interesting topic and the generation did make difference in the honest the older the generation the more honesty the world was, so let us be aware of those fake people since it is critical life to live if some one with dishonesty fake his honesty to you, then you are under their mercy and your life, your house and all is under their games

    • @tress, I appreciate much your own views about honesty, very well said, yes though bothers can fake honesty, but it won’t last. No one ever had triumphed a lie the same way as there is no secret that can be kept for years.Thank you.

    • Nice, I wish to hear the music form displayed here through YouTube.Are your songs in English or not? Thanks, very nice , informative one knowing your culture and music of the 21st century India.

      • Cely,

        Thanks for the appreciation shown for the music of India. Here what is shown is the Veena it is a string instrument. This has been there since the Vedic age more than 7000 centuries ago. This is the instrument played by Goddess Saraswati the Goddess of Knowledge in the Hindu religion. One more interesting thing is that before are sent to school. There is a function conducted known as Aksharabhyasa which is performing pooja for this particular Goddess and seeking her blessing that the child grown into a brainy, intelligent and wise child.

        I do not know if we can put a you tube in this reply hence am not doing the same. But it is played instrumental and it is also played along with singing too. This is famous in south India while its cousin the Sitar one more string instrument is famous in the North India. Listening to booth is nice. You will get lots of downloads of veena recitals in google by famous music personalities.

    • Thank you Krishna for putting up such a wonderful topic You have almost covered all the variety of Indian music. But one of the major sector has not been touched. There should be some category like modern songs which are not film song. Mainly sung by solo artists or bands. These songs are also very rich with their music and lyrics. Sometimes these musics are mix of several categories. I know it is hard to put all category in detail. Then this blog will be huge in size.
      In short you have done a wonderful job.

      • Thanks for the appreciation. I understood what you are trying to point out. This post became too long and I had to unfortunately stop at where I did. I actually wanted to cover what you have highlighted and some other forms too. Will try to put a different post for that. Best wishes.

    • Music produced and performed by artists from India certainly does have variety and is very entertaining.

      • Thanks for the inputs and happy to hear your view on this topic. Best wishes.

        • Question about that particular instrument that you show as your featured image. Is there like someone in India who is considered a master as playing it and making sweet melodies? Don’t know if you’re familiar with the musician Gheorghe Zamfir. He’s Romanian and people say he’s the master of the plan flute. I was wondering if there is someone similar in India who plays that stringed instrument in the picture. I’m not sure what the instrument is called but I have heard it played. If you know who is the master of that instrument, it would probably make an excellent blog post.

          • It is called the Veena and Late Chitti Babu was one of the masters who played there are many who pursue it in South India. S. Balachander, Asad Ali Khan, Rash Behari Dutta, Shrikant Pathak, R.V.Hegde to name a few of the many masters who play this instrument. This also comes in different forms like Rudra Veena etc.

    • though liked the old songs in salman khans and aamir khan movies since we were kids, i have to say the music now is so much greater and rocks, i like it and all the world like it too

      • True today’s music has evolved according to the times and the generation. The number of instruments used and the experimentation too has made the range very vast. It is a industry which is rapidly growing in India. Many albums have also become chart busters and people need not be in the film industry to get into the music industry as there are many companies which release albums and make the artiste famous overnight.

        I feel there is lot of scope for music in our country with a rich and wide array of instruments, playing and singing styles. Fusion music too has reached new heights. Audience whether old or new are open to experimentation. The tend to appreciate good music which has variety and is different from what is already existing and is pleasing to ones years. Lyrics too play an important part as catchy lyrics are liked by youngsters when the composition is good. Thanks for the input.
