Tranquility :How to find bliss and harmony in life? Peace rules the day where reason rules the mind.

  I am now very eager that the place Hormuz will always be remembered as an indelible line of a black stone, in the light of current circumstances.  I got a chance to cross the Strait of Hormuz fourfold while visiting Port Bandar Abbas, Iran.  It has been a long time since I visited Bandar Abbas on MV Rani Padmini, a Bulk carrier (a type of ship). She sailed out of Dalian, China, to Bandar Abbas. That was a really lengthy voyage. From Dalian, the vessel set underway from the Yellow Sea, East China Sea, South China Sea, Malacca Strait, the Beloved Indian Ocean, the Lakshadweep Sea and the Arabian Sea.  The Arabian Sea water slowly said "bon voyage" for her next sailing in the Gulf of Oman and Further to the Strait of Hormuz.

A busy day.  My life has changed, and I am changing with it every day. Behaviour is like a mirror in which we are displaying our own image. And so at the end of the day finding myself more focused. My beliefs are not making me a better person, but my behaviour does. It was a busy scheduled day yesterday. Currently, my life revolves around various segments like teaching in college, volunteering and musical community. One grandparent approaches me regarding her grandson's behaviour. She complains to me about his institution's attendance, improper use of time, and unhealthy food habits. This process began a few months ago.
