लकीरें / Lines – Kaushal Kishore
सही कहा है
कि बदलती रहती हैं
हाथों की लकीरें,
देखा है फिसलते हुए
हाथों में सिमटी हुई चीजों को
उन्हीं हाथों से…
✋ ✋ ✋
It is rightly said,
the lines on the hands
keep changing,
I’ve seen the things held tightly
in the hands slipping away
from those very hands…

US in deep freeze while much of the world is extra toasty? Yet again, it’s climate change | AP News
It’s like an ice skater spinning rapidly with her arms tucked in, he said. But when the polar vortex weakens, the arms start flailing out, the skater slips and “all the cold air then gets released away from the center of the polar vortex,” Cohen said.
The current cold outbreak is consistent with Arctic change and the polar vortex, Cohen said. “What we found is when the polar vortex stretches like a rubber band, severe extreme winter weather is much more likely in the United States. That’s where it tends to be focused and in January we have an extreme case of that stretching of the polar vortex.”
This one is stronger and may last longer than most, Cohen said.

I (always) feel loved – Raffaello Palandri’s Blog
Love is the universal language that transcends the boundaries of language, culture, and time. Love is also the foundation upon which our existence is built. Love is the invisible force that binds us together, fostering connection, understanding, and compassion.
Love is not merely confined to romantic relationships; if we allow it to, it will permeate every single aspect of our lives, nurture our friendships, foster our familial bonds, and improve our relationship with ourselves.

SELF-LOVE: THE FOUNDATION FOR UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE
The first positive example of when I feel loved is in my inner journey of self-love, where I acknowledge my inherent worth and value. And everyone can walk this journey. It’s just about accepting ourselves for who we are, flaws and imperfections, embracing them as unique aspects of our being. Self-love empowers us to break free from self-doubt and criticism, allowing us to radiate confidence and authenticity…
Good People Doing Good Things — Liam and Scott Hannon | Filosofa’s Word
That first week of summer vacation, Liam and his dad found an online treasure hunt game called Brain Chase, where Liam chose three topics to focus on, one of which was ‘service’. The game challenged Liam to find some way, some project to give back to his community. Liam thought about the homeless people he saw every day right outside his building, and he had an idea. The idea was to make … sandwiches! Sandwiches to pass out to the people who needed them most. And thus was Liam’s Lunches of Love born.
In the first week, Liam loaded up a wagon and handed out 20 sandwiches with his dad’s help. He went from sandwiches to complete bag lunches, upgraded the wagon to a hand-cart, and to date has served up more than 2,000 bag lunches to homeless people in his neighborhood. He doesn’t just make the lunches (with some help from dad), but on each and every lunch bag, he writes a handwritten message, often accompanied by an encouraging little bit of artwork.
Liam hopes to someday expand his philanthropy to include animal rescue. A story his dad tells of one incident furthers our faith in Liam’s good heart …

Two Thoughts For The Day | beetleypete
This is the official portrait of King Charles III.
At a time when most people are struggling to pay heating bills in the winter, and many are using charity food banks to supplement their weekly food shopping, the government has spent £8,000,000 on producing framed photos of this portrait to be hung in schools and public buildings.
Why?
Nobody knows why he has all of those military medals, or what he ever did to earn them.
This is my other thought this morning.
