Playbook of a Wandering Mind

Be Patient! Patience is one of the rarest virtues to be found in human species these days. I just ask people as to what is wrong in being patient? Well the only answer I get is it takes too long, the wait is till eternity, who will wait that long etc. etc. So where did our patience go? We still have to wait, but why can’t we do it patiently anymore? What brings me here to write about this virtue today is a fact that I got to know very recently- which is that 94% of the entire Universe is made up of dark matter and scientists say that this dark matter, such as black holes and other such things, they don’t know what it is and why is it there but what is a fact is that the Universe, the world- us would not be able to survive and thrive if not for this 94% dark matter.

It’s been a long time since my last post here. I agree that I have been very busy, but I usually only share when it’s something that is close to my soul.

But the name and approval have come after a long wait and fight for it. And now as the name suggests, Meher means Benevolence in English. Bit of a background here, I began the process about a month and a half back and the name itself holds humongous importance for me. The cause was worthy enough of the name. The cause that has been taken up is supporting an orphanage which houses females with a troubled/abused past. The stories I have heard of little kids being abused has always appalled me at many levels. I mean how can one even think of abusing even
