Am I Immortal ?

In a way this post is a sequel to my last post vacant eyes which was about the loss of memory in old age and the resultant agony.As I thought about this handicap it dawned upon me that today I am hale and hearty but who knows what future has in store for me.Such an obvious fact!We take our good health and all our faculties for granted but what if tomorrow there is a deterioration in our capabilities?
It was a very sobering thought.Is there anything we can do to ensure that we retain all our abilities till the end?Sounds like a tall order,doesn't it ?You can read my views on this at the following link and please tell me your thoughts too.

Vacant Eyes

Vacant eyes staring at me,
Trying hard to position me,
In a desolate vista, 
Of forgotten faces 
And faded memories.

No expression or recognition,
A difficult battle 
Has but been lost.
What harrowing pain, 
 Must accompany that loss.

The twinkle and shine
Have turned to rime,
Only vacant eyes,
Staring at me,
Staring at me.

Zodiac Sign Aquarius


Quite an unconventional sign, this Aquarius!It is difficult to slot them in a definite recognisable category.There is even debate whether it is a water sign or an air sign.What's more while tradition regards it as being ruled by Saturn modern astrologers assign it to Uranus.No wonder I am confused when I think about the Aquarians!If there is an enigmatic personality on your radar it is very likely he is an Aquarian.

Aquarians are unfathomable because of  many  reasons.Firstly they are ahead of their times-progressive and inventive.Secondly they are highly unconventional.They do not believe in obsolete or illogical conventions and generally like to stir up things.If you frown at this, it does not bother them, because they are very self-contained;they do not need your or my approval.Deviating from norms is not a big deal for them.They are fiercely independent.And intelligent.And intellectual.And highly observant.They love to gather new experiences and try out new ideas.Short cuts appeal to them.


If you think all these qualities place them next to intelligent robots you are dead wrong because theirs is the most humane of all signs.They are genial,honest,sincere and loyal.But they do not wear their emotions on their sleeves,which is why they are often misunderstood.This is exacerbated by their elusive nature.What's more,they dislike clinging relationships.So their spouses will have to understand this aspect of their personalities if there is to be peace in home.Rather than giving their all to one relationship,they have concern for the whole humanity.

Coming to their faults the most glaring one is their stubborn nature.They are reluctant to change even if their beliefs or methods are contrary to the times.Unpredictable and sometimes perverse-they like to shock people.Cool and tranquil to a fault-it will take a mammoth push to hurry them up.

But all said and done--though distant,they are genuine,likable persons.

Coming to their health,their ankles and legs are the weak points.
