assign myself a project where I've got to create 6 different style stories in ''x'' amount of time 22 months ago

deadlines; and learning what to look for in a story FIRST, the hardest/easiest part…the part that everything else stems from.



learn different styles of writing 22 months ago

research, AP, essay, conversational, smut, erotica, pornographic stories; I’d like to step back and observe people in this world, the things that appeal to them, and then I want to write so that my words touch my readers. Why not try all types of writing; especially if you’re objective.



Prayer 23 months ago

Imagine you were about to meet someone famous, maybe the lead singer of your favorite band or an actor or politician you admire. Chances are that you’d be nervous, wondering what to say and how to act. You wouldn’t want to make a fool of yourself by doing or saying something inappropriate.
Now imagine you’re just sitting around gabbing with your best friend. You don’t worry about what to say or do. You can just be yourself; the talk flows freely.
These two situations illustrate something about the nature of prayer. On the one hand, prayer brings you into the presence of the king of the universe, the Lord and the creator of everything (Heb 4:16). That’s fairly intimidating! No wonder people feel tongue-tied when they pray. On the other hand, prayer is simply talking with your heavenly Father, the person who knows you better and loves you more than anyone else does.
When we talk with God, we can be ourselves. We don’t need to change how we talk when we talk with him.
Prayer also trains us to hear what God has to say to us. Listening to God requires more patience and more practice than talking to him. Yet when we listen to God, he provides guidance as we seek his will. One caution: if you ever feel God is telling you to do something contrary to Scripture, you have misunderstood. God never contradicts himself to himself or his inspired word. Seek counsel from your parents, your pastor, or other Christians when this happens.
Time spent in the presence of God helps us to become more like him. Have you ever noticed that when two people spend a lot of time together, they begin to talk, act, and even think alike? The same principal applies to our relationship with God. The more were with him, the more we become like him.
Prayer is simply more than simply asking God to give us what we want. Its living, active, and powerful communication with the Lord of all.

dark LADY with blue eYe 3 years ago

it’s again an incident about mistake of eyes & it’s victim. yesterday after a hectic day @ office , i was on my way to home along with a friend . Breeze was blowing but not to that extent that it could relief us !
suddenly my friend stirke with the idea of recharging his mobile !
so i had no option but to move into a small ‘n’ shabby shop to get an e-recharge.
But my dullness changed into excitment when i saw a girl @ the counter.
she asked me in a excited tone “what can i do for you ,sir ? ”
before that i could speak other fellow told her to give a recharge for 1000/- bucks.
But i still could feel that her eyes are struck with mine’s. it was kind of deadlock , that i wished never to end up !
she asked my fellow friend’s mob. no. to be recharged ! her eyes were as if she was asking me why don’t you also go for recharge , so that she can have my contact number to reach me !
but to her great disappointment i had a post paid connection !

but the real drama started when recharge couldn’t end up with success . Now the shop owner , a callous guy , was shouting on that girl for not doing it in proper way . he was harsh & was saying smethng to her continously , that i couldn’t understand because of laungauge Tamil.

but i realised that it was my eYe’s mistake that caught her attention & she innocently dialed some wrong number for recharging! i wished i could stop that shop owner & tell him that she was at no MISTAKE.

i saw fear in her eyes along with the desire to look into mine eyes again ‘n’ again !

i thought of leaving the shop as soon as possible as it was unbearable for me to answer her eyes !

eYes are deadly , do wear RAY-BAN !

love jay
