Age is just a number, keep learning, keep growing

 In 2021, Sankarapandian entered into an exam hall and took the GATE Exam at 67. The previous year a civil engineer wrote the GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test for Engineering) at the age of 80. In Quora, we can find people writing CAT(Common Admission Test), with their daughters and joining MBA in IIM. Writing these exams at such old age is because of family problems at a younger age, or some write to inspire their grandchildren or children. Age is just a number, the enthusiasm to continue their learning quest is what makes life lively. At the age of 40, in the quest to excel at my knowledge, I thought to prepare for CAT and GATE. How much old you may be, thinking to write these tough exams, will increase your horizon of knowledge. The CAT exam has changed a lot over the years, the logical reasoning part is becoming tougher and tougher and the Electrical GATE exam becoming more and more innovative. If you are a graduate, it's always a challenge to write CAT at any age, because with time the exam becomes quite challenging and interesting. Age is just a number, taking challenges and increasing the IQ by trying some different things is good.

Trying to solve jigsaw of life

 How to live life, depends upon choose of that person. Everyone wants to live a successful life. What success means, depends on social standards. God, when we born, sets successful and a failed path. Seeing into the jigsaw, that God planned for you, and taking the path of success, needs extra effort. Life lived to the fullest is life lived for the purpose. Life lived for the betterment of others is, life of noble, and earnest being. What is a satisfying life, depends on person, for some money is satisfying, others it may be betterment of others. According to my humble understanding, Life lived for money is must, but with a noble head is a most satisfying. Living and setting a benchmark for others is life of purpose. I prefer a thoroughly planned and noble emblemed life. Adversity will keep smacking the door, make it a mettle to progress a successful life. Successful life is a sweet melody, interrupted by abrupt coarse tune.

Why Pablo Picasso's painting so costly?

Pablo Picasso, a Spanish painter, and sculptor is considered to be the creator of the greatest paintings. I write my analysis of the paintings of the Great Pablo Picasso. The factor that makes his paintings priceless is his depth of creativity. There are many a million painters in the world of imagination, but what separates him from others is, the cryptic message a painting envisages. Many famous paintings of him, envisages the current situation of upheaval in society. The painting depicts a situation in political, and cultural happening in the society at that time. Drawing a painting, to educate society is seen as a noble upbringing. Pablo Picasso's magical jigsaw of colors depicts his complicated mind, trying to sculpt a veiled message to voice the concerns of society. The depth of his intellect is reflected in his scribbled paintings of him. His painting takes the client into the world of colors ringing the bells of the unseen, this is the reason, why his paintings are considered to be the costliest, owning a Pablo Picasso Painting is considered to be an elitist.

In the year 2019, with nature in unison, put the beginning, to enthralling idea of terrace garden. Initially, with the small beginning, having two brinjal seeds in hand. With my foray, to help my parents, ordered two plant pots from amazon. Our terrace garden started from a brinjal indentation. With the vision of a larger goal in mind, we took small strides into the colossal world of nature. The visitors (variety of birds ,squrrals,pigions) to our terrace garden were skeptical, seeing the indentured garden. The visiting creatures, small in count, put a smile to our face. My mind thinking of a garden, full of colorful butterfies,small but chirpy birds, riveting squrrels,envisioned a heaven on earth, that was my impetus to stive for a larger picture. Our plan was to have a mix of vegetable plants and garden of flowers (Rose etc). Garden of flowers were, targeted for our sweet visitors (variety of birds etc). With brinjal plantation at the start and moved towards Rose and other flowers plantation. In a 5-month period, garden started to make a thrust, visitors started to increase, which made our smile latitudinous. With the years' time, with trail and errors and a bit of tumbles, Garden started to blossom into a forte. More chirpy sounds, started to ring our eardrum, our garden produces a reverberating sound of nature. Augmenting nature's activity considered a fortuitous sign for our house. We see a cooling visitor to hysterical habitue. Good thing about our place is nature responding in concordance. In 2023, garden became big and having variety of species to interweave. In line of tomato plants, between okra and grape, seeing a colorful mix, enchanting to our eyes. This is the exhilarating story of our terrace garden.
