Treasured hamlet

It’s something that I always feel crazy about,..its neither an edible nor a spirit :P the lesser known treasure of India.The elysian feel of its architecture do some eurekha sort of miracle in me every time..

 I'm going to go with something contemporary. The following is the Palace which stands tall and fully functional even today at Kanadukathan, a remote village in Tamil Nadu, India. 

Chettinad, a community formed by the people of South Tamilnadu called Chettiyars or Nagarathars were people who were financially shrewd. These people in the early 1900s went to various foreign and neighboring nations and made loads of money. Rather than bringing home the money, they brought Burmese teakwood, Italian marble, Spanish floor tiles, and Belgium mirrors.

                       

     
This is the entrance arch that is present in almost every Chettinad House. The entrance piece was usually made with Burmese Teak and intricate chiseling. Easily worth a million bucks today. 

These are the Verandahs. Most auspicious functions like marriages take place here.Believe it or not I’m staring at this picture for past 10 minutes :P

The Wooden Pillars are also ever present in most  Chettinad houses!!These pillars like the walls are made with a special mix known as the"Chettinad Plaster" which contains egg white to give it a shiny appearance even after all these years!

A recent trend in tourism has diffused the glory of this place to great lengths.But still much more treasures here are the at verge of fall owing to urbanization..Hope it will be there to cherish it’s beauty till doomsday!!

Even-steven relationships

If you are happy right now it’s not because that everything is going good..But because the relationship that matters the most to you is going great!!

You get out of a closed space and enter into a real world where your peers would try to beat you, your senior official might command, the impulsiveness to groom yourself step up and your folks expecting your beneficence.

With relationships comes the word expectations!!The crunch arise when a relationship is left unmanaged in the lust of expectations..The ratio is what matters..

Next comes our emotions..wonder why a person with emotion is treated naive often..!It's about avoiding emotional drama and not emotions after all this differentiates "human".Staying expressive worth much more than emoji icons :P 

When we lay foundation to career,health,life as a whole.,relationships sink.Well, even gods had their trouble in sustaining relationships..Experience goofing up sometimes but peace demands a master in this art :)

Smartness pays..well not the smartphones!!

Everywhere - bus, meeting, restaurant, friends and so on, your eyes are always down - staring at the smartphone. Maybe someone has liked your photo on FB, upvoted your answer - common on - get some air! Check your surroundings - see that baby is smiling at you, there is sadness in your friend's eyes that can't be expressed in words - there is so much happiness around you,that appstore can't get you..

To say you will begin to experience so uncommon things around.They were uncommon since a sort of digital displacement was there in between.You would grow more expressive in real life which was lacking before.This digital displacement is the worst thing that can clutch any empty space :P

you'll have more time then. This might be so because of the change in the way you socialise or because you quit some smart phone thing, nevertheless, you'll have a lot of time compared to before. Your thumbs are not always fatigued.

You'll get to have more face-to-face conversations with people who  are around you. You could see this as a good or a bad thing. I don't want to judge this effect. All I'll say is that it happens.

And finally constantly speaking isn't conversating...Real friends do remember you without these stuffs ;)
