A FRIEND IN NEED



"Book is the best friend forever, without demand and without complaint"-But in this digital era the entire scenario is changing rapidly.Now a days we can see the advertisements to save trees.The paperbacks are replaced by e-books.Still now we can find out some book-buzz who can actually spend thousands of rupees to grab a rare collection.This is the spell of book.Though this generation is addicted by the virtual world,psp games,to some extent the psycho driven games but still we cannot forget Sherlock Holmes,Mrs Murple and Tintin and his adventures.Though we can see them is 3-Ds but still the comfort of reading rather to gobble every words with an immense speed adds some other flavors to it. Of course we should welcome the new technologies where as it is an inevitable part of our life but we should not loose our practice of reading books.We should be careful to our environment but we should enrich our moral values as well that we can uplift the thoughts of our society.It helps to eradicate illiteracy from our society by a cost-consuming way.one book can enrich the word-stocks, shape up the thoughts,enrich the imagination power where as video games are making the thoughts static.
                           Once the books were one and only mode of recreation,rather the best ever gifts where as the only source of knowledge but now a days the sources are multiplied.Now a days just one click gives us the wide sources of reading.But still the smell of the new paperback of book madly driven us into another world.On the other hand buying books are going to be more easier now a days due to the introduction of online shopping.Actually the fact of hope is that still now people are buying books online as well as from the stores.Though there are so many other ways of entertainment but still the business tycoons are interested to allot some book stores in shopping mall and even we can see a remarkable crowd in Book-Fair grounds as well.So now a days we should keep a balance in between our two friends environment and the book.

Sikkim : The Glory of North-East (14 Exotic Locations)

Teesta River Sikkim is one of the most famous hill-station with its vivid scenic beauty and versatile natural components. Snow-cladded cliffs to crystal-clear river water, the eye-soothing view makes this tiny state as one of the most famous tourist destinations of India. This is the second smallest state after Goa. The fastest way to reach Sikkim is to hire a car from Bag Dogra Airport. If it seems a bit costly then one may go Siliguri Via train then Bus to Gangtok From SNT Bus Terminus. It will take near about 4 - 5 Hours. The experience of spending days in this small valley amid low hills and lakes will be a lifetime memory. Gangtok is the capital of the state. I found it one of the busiest towns. I checked-in to Nettle & Fern a cozy hill-inclined hotel to spend 2 days in Gangtok. The cafe, the shops in MG Marg the food joints will give ultimate pleasure to tourist. Though I was craving for the nectar of the nature. After spending 2 days there I was so keen to explore the nearby

Sound: The power towards infinity

Image
It was 8pm in Melbourne, and in an opera house, Jack and Sophia, along with the ballroom full of audiences, were shattered by the piercing sound of the opera singer. Sophia went for the first time to the opera, and the terrible shrill voice of the lady perhaps reached up to 100 decibels, so that the wine glasses in the ballroom gradually turned into pieces. Well, that might be an instance, but I must tell you that the power of sound is beyond imagination. Tan Sen invited Monsoon along with Malhaar Rag. Sound is one of the primitive powers that mankind witnessed. Sound brings language, which went through evolution in the form of vocabulary, novels, and literature. The Shiva Tandav is the personification of rage and destruction, while Veena's melodious symphony is the personification of creation. Each and every sound on this earth has its own significance. That is why if the dog barks with prolonged intonation, we predict some disaster. That is science, so the sound and vibrations ca
