Great, for taking it in the right spirit. If the makers of Avatar-2 read my article before they make the movie they might make a hit movie! lol. Please do try my article. Thank you for your positive response.

What overwhelmed you, I guess, is the technology and not the content. Talking about technology I guess they might do away with movie actors. Only digital characters created through computer graphics.

Talking about the content I believe the need of the hour is movies and stories showing how the world ought to be socially. We have had for too long movies etc showing how the world is with rather a negative effect. If you are puzzled by my concern I suggest you read my article 'Why Democracy has bee a failure the world over'.

You article was quite interesting though, from the technology point of view. I am more interested in 'sociology' so as to find ways of avoiding situations like this great recession and even worse. People appear to me to be so complacent of the state of affairs.

Hope you could understand me.

Beautiful. Your poem is picturesque too. And Guy W's comment is proof of that.

What are you writing? Global warming, greenhouse gases etc I can understand. But dead souls, medium, God is disgusted etc are all nonsense. God thinks and acts like God not like human beings. It is not always so easy for us mortals to understand God.

Good work Cheryl. It is rightly said that real service to God is service to fellow human beings who are less privileged and real happiness is in making others happy. I guess your job needs a lot of patience and understanding.

Read again! And would like to read again soon! Sensuous yet decent.

A beautiful picture and a beautiful poem. Of late I have been missing your poems. I must take lessons on time management.

Recession, I believe, is one such hell the cause of prolonged collective ignorance.

Interesting! "No one is bad, they are good people who have made wrong choices", so well said. So true, too. With a little thoughtfulness we can understand one another. We generally misunderstand than understand. These wrong choices are often by mistake but sometimes they appear to be a bit too deliberate. In any case it is a wrong choice and we must help one another in making the right choice. Sometimes we choose the wrong choice as a short-cut. By all means we should avoid the temptation.

Yes, there is a cure for ignorance. It is like a bitter pill. So people avoid it. The actual bitter pill of medicne we swallow because we have to suffer otherwise. Here the suffering is not so apparent or so severe and hence we avoid and suffer we do. It is like a fellow who is unaware of the malady afflicting him say something like cancer. Even if he suspects something is wrong he wouldn't care much for the sssusffering is not really serious. But one day he is bound to suffer a hell. What is the cause of ignorance? It is once again ignorance. People are first ignorant and then they are ignorant of their ignorance.

Now, what is that 'bitter pill' to cure ignorance? Let me warn you, its bitter effect might srart right now! It is 'reading' good books, writings and speeches of enlightened people of past and present; even philosophycal works. John Ruskin, Betrand Russel, Tolstoy etc are just a few of the administrators of these bitter pills. . . Try them, you would start feeling healthy.

I have just received Gather points statements by email and got directed to this site. All this is fine. But they say actions speak louder than words. So I look forward to hear you louder. Hope you would take this comment in the right spirit, Tom.

A good comment on a book. So then it is a boon rather than a bane.  Some books enlighten and some books entertain. Some books, I consider them ideal, both enlighten and entertain.

As Kushal says you have talent. Looks a bit professional; I suggest you learn the art of writing poetry so that you can get into print and reach more people. You may not need people but I guess people need you. As I got  to the last lines of your poem tears welled into my eyes too! It was so touching.

I 'met' you on Cheryl's site with a surreal story.  The affinity of fellow Indian dragged me to your site.

Interesting surely, but still I could not quite get at the essence of the story. So this is surrealism. Surrealism is rather an unfamiliar ground for me. Like your poetry perhaps I have to read it a couple of times more! However Ann M's comment just above throws some light.  Dreams are wonderful. Mermaids are glamourous. You are a sort of mermaid on Gather, always difficult to understand and difficult to get any closer.

You are right in a way. The court may have tried him but the people in general had a soft conrner for him. But of course as you say where is the proof? That is difficult to answer. For one there can't be smoke without fire. We hear that he had paid 22 million to hush up something? I don't know if that has proof. Believing or not believing and taking views is a matter of one's own experience, outlook and beliefs. When our shortcomings affect other people's freedom  or happiness we must consider them serious. I am sorry if I hurt your feelings. I surely appreciate your view point.
