We don't have to give him reminders.,. just speak to him all day .. as there is no end to conversations of love.

My profile picture also says that i wear whatever i like, provided you see my other pictures too. White is a combination of all the colors VIBGYOR. Some say it's a neutral color. It too suits me.

That's the reason why i said number is meaningless to me. God dwells always in one's heart with doors open.

White isn't actually a color.. to speak the facts. However, your profile picture says that you use other colors to enhance your attire.

If you are counting the number of times it is not prayer it is statistics.. I am talking of being one with God.. being in constant communion with God.. You do count how many times you express your love to your children/spouse? Its is the same with God.

The fact that it is the universal language gives us the additional advantage of being able to connect to a world wide audience. It helps you learn more, broaden your understanding and widens the scope of your reach.

Irrespective of one's liking and disliking, it's a fact that English is a universal language.

Sofs replied to the topic Some Physical traits that attract the people..
To quote my favorite poet Kalil Gibran
But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.To know the pain of too much tenderness.To be wounded by your own understanding of love;And to bleed willingly and joyfully.To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;To rest at the noon hour and meditate love's ecstasy;To return home at eventide with gratitude;And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.
This is amazingly the most beautiful and realistic description about the mystery called love to me.

Great that you can be at peace when your desires are not fulfilled. But why let others ride on your emotions. Isn't that letting others take control of you through your emotions?
I believe that we need to be in control over our emotions. Easier said that done.. however it is a process .. It happens over time. Patience and perseverance can get us there.
Yoga, if done regularly and religiously you acquire a state of Equanimity, the quality of taking the things as they come to you. No rejoicing on a triumph. No lamenting on turbulence.

I regard prayer as a means to express my gratitude for all that he gave me. Once in a day, I pay my gratitude to God. Number of times is immaterial to me. Because God knows what you are. That's why reminders every other minute is not required.

True it is indeed a matter of convenience. I feel at ease expressing my thoughts and dreams in English.. I come from a multi lingual background and never really had a preference for any single language over the other. Besides English is the universal language whether we like it or not.

Sofs replied to the topic Shouldn't legal professionals have some moral responsibility towards society?.
I basically think that every self respecting citizen of the world need to have a sense of social responsibility. True that the legal professionals need to be more so.. But it seems morals and values have lost to the power of money.

No color is bad as long as it's not distracting and dazzling. I prefer White, a combo of all the colors that is universally accepted and did not lose its value with the time.

Color has nothing to do with bias. We seem to add menings where non exists.
In the case of pink and blue it is not even a choice.. it has been trust upon us by clever scheming men to let their schemes make easy money for them.

For me a prayer is to keep me away from sins for the day and I never take more than five seconds for saying that to almighty.
That sounds strange to me.. so you just deposit you sins on him and push off do you?
I am always talking to him every moment of the day. Constantly telling him how much I love him.. how much I need him.. etc..
Prayer is as I understand a two way conversation.. not one way traffic. Each to his own though.. I was just curious.
