if you want a cake ...

Attempt to draw one with https://www.autodraw.com/


... then just ask for it!

Universe will always answer every prayer :)

It will bring to you what you want ... just keep in mind few points
- it knows when the time is best
- it knows what is the best flavor and healthy (better) alternative
- it sometimes present you with not the cake but the ingredients to make one for yourself (and the recipe as well - in some case, the recipe will be unfolded as you go along with following the steps) :D


[Every month, I try to post one blog entry on 1st ... and today it is already 2nd of Nov 2022 .. since, I was unable to come up with anything .. I thought - why don't I scroll through the long list of DRAFTs I have saved for a while .. and this is what I found - seemed it was saved in Aug 2012 - makes the CAKE more than 10 years old !]

help!?

from http://res.freestockphotos.biz/pictures/9/9278-red-f1-help-key-on-a-keyboard-pv.jpg

this is real incident i happened to be part of sometime last month .. i was at a grocery store when i noticed an elderly person with his blind-man's stick seemingly lost near the icecream freezers .. i casually inquired - "do you need to go somewhere?" and he asked if i can take him to the 'customer service' .. i said something like 'let me try or find out' .. and when i tried to hold his hand he corrected me how he needs to hold my shoulder/hand and then he can follow ... not knowing exactly where the customer service was i led him to the checkout lanes and asked one of the person at the counter .. she was obviously busy serving customers and seemed to be uninterested and she quipped - "sir, he should be with his support worker" .. and then asked the gentleman - "where is your helper?" .. the person did not like to be reminded that he is 'lost' .. and he started shouting at me instead - 'is this customer service department? i told you to take me there - why did you bring me here?' .. i tried to reason with him .. 'i did not know and i am trying to find it out for you ..' .. and he further fumed - 'if you did not know - why did you not tell me so when i requested for help' .. and i was little shocked .. another store employee rushed to me and asked if i was ok .. even before i try to explain her the situation .. she mentioned 'do not worry .. i understand .. a little while ago, he did something similar to me too ..' .. and i had no choice but to leave him alone once again roaming around in the big store trying to figure out things on his own .. and it made me ponder .. is it possible that in life too many of us might be 'lost' .. unable to 'see' things ... hope i do not push away those who are trying to genuinely help me by simply finding (non-existing/other/unrelated) 'faults' in them .. ...सर्वे भद्राणि पश्यन्तु (sarve bhadraaNi pashyantu) ...

the monk who sold ..

 well - monk is a very serious/sacred word .. but i guess you will guess/relate easily if i asked who is the 'monkey' who bought and sold his Tesla Model 3 on the same day? 😁
