Shiva (@Shiva49) on myLot

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (10262) • Calcutta, India 19 Jul

A lovely, slow Sunday in Kolkata. There’s something special about the city’s vibe on a weekend. I’m spending today practising presence- no rush, no wandering thoughts, just living in the present. It’s a work in progress, but it...

Shiva I had to wait wait for my retired life to visit Kolkata. The city has a rich history behind it and after some negotiation remained with India. Instead Lahore went to Pakistan.

Hair of the Dawg plays a gig out in Isleton this afternoon. Isleton is an interesting small town. It used to be a hub for Chinese-Americans, who were largely responsible for building the levees that serve the farming community in...

On Saturday, Vince and I went to a quiz night at the clubhouse. We hadn’t intended to go but our friends had double-booked themselves so we said we’d go in their place. Vince always takes photos of the people at the tables and...

Shiva You did yourself proud on the Animal Kingdom. I am more of "jack of all trades, master of none" when it comes to quizzes. I recall one bowling competition when my friend and I were competing not to come last. The wombat looks like it wants to be left...

Shiva Heartfelt feelings of deep love. Life can be snatched away in a moment. I try to enjoy the blessings of another day. Yes, we yearn for reunion with those who were part of our lives.

Shiva @jstory07 When we are a family, we need to share equitably. Are we not a bigger family? After all, we leave everything behind and the memories fade too within a generation.

President Donald Trump said he would increase tariffs on Canada over wildfire smoke and poor air quality, with an extra 10% discussed in coverage. The exact mechanism and timing of the added charge were described as unclear,...

After we finished viewing the sailing ship Leeuwin, we stopped at the Gage Roads café. Gage Roads is the name given to the area outside Fremantle Port where ships wait to enter the harbour. Rather than order a coffee, Vince...

Shiva I used to like beer when the weather was hot and humid. It was more to enjoy the light hearted banter, sort of unwind. Australians are known to enjoy beer.

Shiva Yes, we willfully destroy our planet due to our greed. Earth provides everything for free but we want more still. I recall Gandhi's words: "there is enough for everybody's need and not for anybody's greed". Another : "We know the cost of everything, but the...

Yesterday the training sail ship, Leeuwin, was open to the public so we went to Fremantle to have a look. It isn’t a replica but was designed as a training ship. There does seem to be an awful lot of ropes. I imagine it would take...
