Why are Punjabis so full of Pride?

Punja paaniya di dharti, dass guruaan di baani
Sufi santaan da dar, heer ranjhe di kahani

Ghazni Ghauri Temur Abdali di maar
Etthe jatt da paseena, etthe khande di dhaar

Etthe sohni mutiyaran, shahi suit patiala
Bhagat Singh jehe munde, sir sohniya dastaaran

Assi desh lai ditti bina "politics" de shaheedi hai
84 de dange jhalle, "uff" vi na keeti hai

Saag te makki di roti da har ikk di zubaan te swad hai
Pichli vaar jad vyah te nacche si ki oh 'punjabi' gaana yaad hai?

Enne sare kamman vich je oh mohri hunde aa
Ese lai Punjabi enne tohri hunde aa

Baki vi ne change, poore India di shaan hai
Par apne Punjab utte mennu poora maan hai

Having been written by the maestro Khushwant, based on his diary entries and his observations as a bird watcher (it was a surprise for me too to find another feather in his hat), it addresses one aspect that all other Barahmaaha treatises of the past chose to ignore - nature - flowers and birds and animals. I'm not an outdoorsy person per se, and my meagre knowledge of flowers and trees is something I've given up my hope on. But thanks to the divine illustrations by Suddhasattwa Basu, I felt as if I was sitting in Lodi Gardens while reading this one, surrounded by fragrance and chitterings.  🌸 So read this one to get to k...
They say that a Cancerian is the most homesick sun sign. What if a Cancerian is homeless and still feels homesick?

Pyromania : Revenge Idea # 1

To take your revenge against an irritating chatterbox friend,  start with a message dripping with the hint of some juicy gossip. As soon as you are blessed with double ticks on your mobile screen (sent and delivered), go offline,  switch off your phone,  throw it in the bin,  run away and hide in your bed. Best sleep of revenge ever! ^_^ Am I high? Oh,  I don't think so ;-)
