I do not like vegetables as much as I like fruits. They do not taste as good as a nice piece of fruit. My favorite vegetable are tomatoes which some say are a fruit. But it will always be a vegetable to me. Tomatoes are the...

Shiva Being a vegetarian all my life, I survive on vegetables of all varieties. Cooking of vegetables vary even in Asia. I like boiled and stir-fried ones more. I can do without fruits for a few days but I take bananas almost everyday.

I was just at the grocery store, staring at a bottle of Windex. The cost was something like $5.50. Kitty's sliding glass cat door is quite streaky. Then my @Porwest Trump University brain kicked in. To the right of the Windex was...

Shiva I used to work in a pharmaceutical manufacturing company decades ago just a few years after I started my working career. We had an export order but the shipment was held up at the customs for "under-invoicing". I rushed to save the day for my company and...

Shiva @innertalks Thanks Steve. We are tested and tempted to stray away from love but when we are steadfast with love as the guiding factor, we are well on our way to a meaningful, purposeful, and fulfilling life.

Shiva Loving everything right before us including those around us (the tough part!) elevates meaning in our lives. There should be no borders to love as everything is there for a purpose. Use what is within reach physically and mentally than look at what others...

Life goes on as usual, with challenges galore—overcoming them gives us moments of relief. For a few, death is a reality that hangs over them constantly. The rest are left in peace if they think of the world as of now as the...

Shiva The irony is only our political leaders want wars. What use killing another for the common person who fights to live another day? They are in similar situation everywhere.

Shiva Nature provides everything for our needs but not to meet greed of a few. Our effort to sustain ourselves is nothing compared to what is given to us for free. However, we ignore the heaven right before us and invent reasons to kill each other.

Many of us here remain a bit of a mystery. Perhaps, in some ways, that adds a level of intrigue? And of course, some of it is because even though we have a bit of an online presence, we still want to cling onto some sense of...

Shiva @jaylar It is taken as a weakness when other countries want to do business with the US. So better to wait for the storm to pass and things become clearer. Trade and relationship should be based on mutual respect. It is more of threats and scoring points now,...

Shiva And there are a few who crack a joke and then laugh out aloud. Some like to hear their own voice. I get annoyed when a few hardly listen to what we say. Yes, there are always the few who are quite annoying.
