Some years ago, there was a Mensa convention in San Francisco.
Mensa, is an international organization for people who have an IQ of 140 or higher.
Several of the Mensa members went out for lunch at a local cafe.
When they sat down, one of them discovered that their salt shaker contained pepper, and their pepper shaker was full of salt.
How could they swap the contents of the two bottles without spilling any, and using only the implements at hand?
Clearly — this was a job for Mensa minds.
The group debated the problem and presented ideas and finally, came up with a brilliant solution involving a napkin, a straw, and an empty saucer.
They then called the waitress over, ready to dazzle her with their solution.
“Ma’am,” they said, “we couldn’t help but notice that the pepper shaker contains salt and the salt shaker contains pepper…”
But before they could finish, the waitress interrupted & said…
“Oh — sorry about that.”
She leaned over the table, unscrewed the caps of both bottles and switched them.
There was dead silence at the Mensa table.
For most of the problems in our lives there are simple solutions, but it is our “Brilliant” minds that complicate every simple solution. …Change the Caps and enjoy life !!
As we stand on this bridge of love
Living life in this now by the river of time
That flows on in its own course.
How wonderful it would be to always remember …..
It’s the way of love to bridge the spaces in between
It’s the way of love to build a connection
It’s the way of love to show the way
It’s the way of love to linger in memories just as much as…
It’s the way of love to let go and move on
It’s the way of love to mend the broken
It’s the way of love to accept and allow
It’s the way of love to empower with hope
It’ss the way of love to sense pain and pleasure.
It’s the way of love to brings out words to share from the heart.
It is the way of love to shine through a smiling heart
For love is the gift of life
And its the way of love to be filled with gratitude for its beautiful ways.

Was watching the reflections of sunlight dancing on this patch of water on the window sill of my terrace one evening. I was mesmerized by the fleeting cloud it had captured and its amazing colours that held my fancy for a long while…

What seems to be, may not be
What is, may be not
What is apparent, may be invisible
What is assumption, may become a contradiction
Or simply delusions of our own imagination.
Or simply a clarity of illusions in the reflections.
She seems calm and composed and at complete ease .
A pretty picture of her face framed by her curly locks.
She seems to know more than she wants to tell
Her smile seems to sense much more as well
Her truth is hers alone, as her lips may seal
Oh! but what all a good capture can reveal.
Our personna is so transparent on the verge
Of Shadows thrown open to light
The inner and outer may merge
And unmask thoughts that may be shut tight.
Shadows of past out in the open today
And capture thoughts held at bay
All it takes to know is a shutters click
In perfect timing of what to shoot & pick

This picture was shared on one of my networks in Social Media and I felt compelled to take a second glance …. the picture spoke much and my pen had to flow to capture the thoughts on this pretty capture.
