There is slight bitterness in taste i mean straight out of the glacier, and the bitter taste stays longer and you feel thirsty soon. i don't know how the same water turns sweet after a few miles down the stream.raufhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14069291890495563749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21312708.post-18648547174712651412011-03-04T09:44:19.937-05:002011-03-04T09:44:19.937-05:00rauf, I love cotton anything, and everything. Thes...<b>rauf</b>, I love cotton anything, and everything. These jammies are cotton flannel, very warm. On very cold days I layer long john type leggings underneath.<br /><br />On the one hand, life is incredibly fragile. I agree that it's a wonder some of us wake up at all, or we don't contract terrible disease, illness, or wrong body functions. On the other hand, we are so resilient! People live on and on with terrible diets. And sometimes the healthiest most fit people die suddenly when some organ doesn't fire properly.<br /><br />I love this Paul Simon album so much. I think he will go down as the best American lyricist of the 20th century.<br /><br />Think of water alone, rauf. Steam, condensation, rivers, snow, clouds, ice. We see water transformed every day and think nothing of it.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204074161539605133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21312708.post-35529399882858166972011-03-04T08:25:54.848-05:002011-03-04T08:25:54.848-05:00Panic Ruth. pyjama's don't look so warm. &...Panic Ruth. pyjama's don't look so warm. 'pa' are legs, 'jama' is a robe, so this is a robe for the legs, pa-jama is a Urdu word. Usually a thin material as it doesn't get very cold here. Thin cotton is very comfortable Ruth. Egyptian cotton is the best i heard.<br /><br />Life itself is a miracle Ruth and waking up in the morning is another miracle, one can never be sure of waking up, but we hope and plan for tomorrow. So i wonder at the people who are swindling money from you the bankers and the people who sell you dreams, why they are doing it when they are not so sure of waking next morning.<br /><br />Living in India itself is a miracle Ruth for many, with unhygienic surroundings and no value for life. <br /><br />Nice to see Paul Simon here, Graceland is the best ever fusion album i have ever heard. This was recorded with South African musicians still under Apartheid. This album was hotly debated in the UN general Assembly as Paul Simon had defied the ban<br /><br />The shadows on the snow are lovely Ruth. Gorgeous pictures as always<br /><br />So, you are Jesus Christ then. There was no rubber then. Probably he was wearing wooden sandals. Wooden sandals without him would float, that is not a miracle. but with Jesus in them on water is indeed a miracle.raufhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14069291890495563749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21312708.post-23641940943479651322011-03-04T04:02:20.014-05:002011-03-04T04:02:20.014-05:00Vagabonde, now that I have posted two winter posts...<b>Vagabonde</b>, now that I have posted two winter posts, and I hear you speak of blossoming trees and yellow forsythia, I think I can begin to let winter go.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204074161539605133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21312708.post-49140383837212113112011-03-04T04:00:59.344-05:002011-03-04T04:00:59.344-05:00Oliag, do we have the same M.O.? :-)

Your landscape is lovely but it looks a bit cold to me. Yesterday here it was 70 degrees with a lovely sun. The trees are in bloom and the forsythias too. I saw a deer also, but it was standing near a pine tree and shrubs in bloom. But considering that the driving distance between you and me is about 1000 kms or the distance between Paris and Berlin – it is understandable that our worlds are different. Your pajama color goes well with the shadows in the snow.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21312708.post-48387466356791672602011-03-03T14:17:35.187-05:002011-03-03T14:17:35.187-05:00I do love a woman who goes out walking in her paja...I do love a woman who goes out walking in her pajamas:) and with her camera:)<br /><br />Lovely, lovely, lovely...GailOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09556665956317683667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21312708.post-35706554574542428032011-03-03T11:46:31.872-05:002011-03-03T11:46:31.872-05:00Another sigh-full soul-full prosem.
