Saima:

I love to watch the leaves falling. Yesterday, I saw an entire tree getting bald in a matter of hours when small yellow leaves kept coming down like raindrops (don't know what that tree is called).

Fall is the best and the prettiest time of the year in the East, esp. Ottawa. A visit to the Gatineau Park is a must for every nature lover.

Leaves fall, and fall they must. Else, how can the life be renewed. Let's hope that the Hindus are right and when we fall from the Tree, we too can come back afresh and ready to flower, bloom and green once again.

Too many morons walking around in the world with their eyes closed and being taken for a long ride. It is best to celebrate, not to cry over, open eyes and a discerning brain....Just look at Manto whenever you want to shut your eyes, and you'll never want to be a blind moron again...
