A Poem from Antarctica- to explain


Why there has to be the blues.

There has to be the blues because
Some kinds of sadness are as good as being happy.
Or misery loves company.

Why people have to die.

People have to die because
There has to be room for new people.
Or living forever would be boring as hell.

Why loneliness is fundamental physics.

Loneliness is a universal constant because
If you took every person who ever lived
And gave them their own galaxy
There’d be a lot of galaxies left over.
Or because you’re far from me.

Why there has to be Antarctica.

Antarctica has to be so there was somewhere close we could go
To see what the rest of the universe was like.
Or because God forgot to put something at the bottom.

Why it has to hurt.

It has to hurt to remind you everything has a consequence
That ripples through everyone else’s life.
Or it’s sympathy for exploding stars.

Why I smile when I look into your eyes.

I smile when I look into your eyes because
I’m happy I’m close to you again.
Or I remember you from my dreams.

Yes, E-Wallets are better than cash: How to setup and use e-wallets.

There is chaos on the street, in the banks, ATMs and petrol pumps. We expect the scene to remain the same for coming days or weeks. But there is an easy way out of this, especially for all those who have a smartphone. Tuesday, November 8, was a usual day till about 8pm in the evening when PM Modi said that  Rs 500 and Rs 1000 currency notes will cease to be legal tenders from the midnight in India. That was the midnight of November 8. What followed that decision, presumably made to fight black money, has been a blurry slideshow of long queues outside ATMs, petrol pumps and just about everywhere. While many smartphone users are aware of mobile wallets and are probably using them, many are not.
