Still here, just problems with my phone

Since I do most my blogging on my phone, ie on the go so to say and since there I have problems with the most recent version of Blogger....blogging has been much less. My posts come to me when I'm out doing things because that is when I see things or think about things more in depth.

When I'm at home, I think about my baby and then sleep. Lately, I've been extremely tired, just tired. Last night, I went to bed at 9pm which is like a first.

Hopefully I'll get my Blogger app to work to I can blog like before. (This could be enough reason for me to get a new phone)

Things you do when. ..

Tired with a baby...

- Pour coffee powder in your breakfast cereal
- Wake up unable to open up glued eyelids,  then realizing you forgot to remove your contact lenses
- Come home and become totally upset because someone stole your bicycle. ..only to remember you left it at your husband's office
- You wake up and seriously don't know where you are for 10 minutes
- Go downtown with a big mango puke on your white top
- In terms of baby vommit...you stop caring basically.  A spot here and there, well who cares

Butterfly

The biggest butterfly I've seen. I think it is a night butterfly because the body is thick like a sausage.

From a heart in pain

I don't know...life...I try to be a good and responsible person. Then things happen and knock you down. You pick yourself up and keep on going,  going and going. 

How many problems and setbacks can one person handle? More than you could ever imagine is the answer.

The innocence of children and childhood is the only reflection of God on this planet. Life is a struggle for us all. Therefore I seek peace and joy in the innocent smile of my beloved son.

Money Tree

That western people have a money tree at home. ..is something many local people think and many westerners talk about.

It's a misconception just like there are polar bears walking on the streets in my country for instance.It's relative of course like almost everything in the world.  If I compare myself to a really poor person...yes...but the frustrating thing if you happen to be a westerner is that many people try to take advantage of you because "you have unlimited money", ie a money tree.

A very wise man, lets call him S, once said that "the love for money is the root of all evil". That is global. ..people all over the world chase money.

In my life I've had money and I've been poor. Today we went to a bank to open up a savings account.  It was jam packed with people and when I spoke to the girl at the information desk, she said - you can go in there and wait. A few seconds later, my husband and I sit by ourselves in the Gold Lounge. People start looking at us...so money tree. ..you get it.

The thing about money is that "the money language" is also global. Everyone understands it, everyone wants it, talks it, some master it, are victims of it,  abuse it, needs it, chases it....money talks basically.

I still agree with S. The love for money is the root of all evil. Actually, this wise man said many things I agree with.  Do you know who I'm talking about?

Yum!

It's so nice to eat something "non-spicy" for a change. I love Indian food,  but also some variety.

Didn't know Schumacher. ..

Was planning on being my cab driver today? Watch out. ..Bangalore traffic!  Even felt car sick several times.
