The "rush" in the wrong place??
Saturday, we went to do some shopping. Some jewelery and vegetables.. and here is what I find..
Look at the two pictures.. one is the vegetable market... the other a jewelery store (or market if you may)...  And come to think of it, all those jewelery ends up in lockers... And I always thought vegetables were more healthier

Thats a very True to Time observation!! Like a few days back I read somewhere: Earlier we had lemons in the lemonade and the toilets were cleaned with chemicals, ironically, now, the lemonade is chemically flavored and the toilet cleaners claim to have pure lemon juice!

The rush for gold (my loose translation: materialism) always reminds me of what ElizabethI said on her deathbed..
