The squirrel and the lion

Once upon a time a squirrel wants to become a lion.
He goes to the lion and asks: "I want to be a lion. What shall I do?"
The lion says: "You need to go hunting for meat."
The squirrel goes back home and catches a bird. But he has no appetite for the bird. When hunger kicks in, he gathers 5 nuts. He eats 3 and hides 2 and goes to sleep.
The next day he wakes up and feels dreams unfulfilled. He goes to the lion again.
"How can I become a lion."? Asks the squirrel.
The lion grabs the squirrel and swallows it.

安轩

闻笛出天姥古寺，
随蝶入柴扉半掩。
断壁难遮闲庭院，
莲池澈映雁云远。
叶展花开香长燃，
书黄茶凉日苦短。
挑枝戏看今朝事，
抚苔难辨旧楹联。

Lover

A lover is a cloud in the twilight,
surprising
beautiful
ever-changing.
It shows off its gold lining,
while casting a shadow.
The moment you marvel it's existence,
to vanish is it's destiny.

Mumbai safari

This is a city that honors four things: Bollywood, Politicians, Industrial Tycoons and Cricket Players. All the rest means nothing. It is almost a crime getting into these luxury hotels as poverty is just next door, so striking. and alarming.
There is construction. There are too many cars. The metro line is being built. The unfinished highway is suspending overhead like a shipwreck.
Hope is like dust falling everywhere, despite what you think.
