The life in time

We all go through stages in life. We were born, we grew up, we got married and started having children. Each stage accompanied by learning and experiencing. Learned good from bad, experienced joy and pain in the process. 
As new-borns it took a lot of time to learn to walk and talk. That is human. Unlike a colt, takes only a few hours to start running. But the colt can never talk like human.
Then came the stage of academic education, means attending a place called school. Another length of time to go through before we were ready to go free and independent, and find a means to sustain our existence. That is for human, as for the colt and the rest of them depend on the nature providence.
Now as we get into the next stage. The colt, grown as a horse has "mating season", but for human there is another more than ample time to find a compatible mate. For the horse, the season makes it happen like automatic, for the human complications are always meddling with the human senses. But when finally one seems to have found the most compatible according to his judgement through experience then the time comes to settle the affair.
The affair settled, another stage through a certain period of time comes. The arrival of a progeny. A new-born human. A cycle is completed to start another cycle, either in the same colour and nuance or modified or completely changed, depending on a certain unexplainable factor.
We may or may not be able to see how the cycle of life rolls, the mystery of it remains lingering among the uncertainty, which develops into infinite puzzle no mind can solve.

Winter fashion in Mauritius

It is the month of May, third week and the water that flows through the water tap is beginning to become icy cold. The wind outside the house is blowing cold and strong. Down in Ushuai'a in American continent it is autumn. When I say that in my place in May blows the cold wind of winter, people look at me, that makes me explain that this place is in the southern hemisphere of the globe where seasons and climate go the contrary to Europe and America. Whenever you video call your friend in America you will see them wearing light clothing, even go bare chest, while you will be seen all bundled up on layers. Everything will look contrary, from food and drinks till clothes.

Speaking about cloths or fashion that this place have in store for this winter, though the winter here is more like autumn and constant till the following spring,  you may see long pants and pantalon and leggings are out, paired with long sleeves shirts and blouses of a bit thicker materials and longer dresses. You may also see some sweaters worn on  the higher part of the island. like Curepipe and High Plateau. Mauritius is said to be a rainbow island, so that goes also for the color of the fashion. Never omit the rainbow color.





One of the well knows stores in Mauritius where you can get your seasonal clothing.

This island, so small as she is, she never wants to lag behind in fashion, especially fashion for the young next generation. Besides this Island Haze brand, there are others, too, like "Body and Soul","Quick Silver" ,  et cetera that provide latest fashion for every season in Mauritius. from head to toe.

Wedding Anniversary

Children grow up to be adolescents then they come to the age towards maturity which commonly the least is at nineteen years, though nowadays the age of adulthood is eighteen years. At that age, they start to have the right of legal identity as an individual, detached from their parents. Then they come to the age of falling in love and get married.

Many get married out of love, but not few also take a vow of marriage of convenience. Not very romantic indeed, but that does not stop for that particular couple from celebrating their marriage anniversary.

Some couple celebrate it by taking "an evening for two only" and some throw a gathering party, sharing their romantic moments with their family and friends.

Many "An evening for two only"  spent on romantic sumptious dinner, flowers and candles. Sometimes in a restaurant with  a certain musician paid to play exclusively for the ones celebrating, and sometimes simply having a romantic home cooked dinner followed by some other activities like listening to music over sips of wine or watch television entertainment programs.

And those who love to share with other, if not inviting the guests to their homes, they may hold it in a hall or hotel ballroom decorated with special decoration for the occasion.

Wedding anniversaries have names, which means a name is given to a certain marriage duration, for instance if a marriage reached duration of five years, the anniversary is called "Wooden wedding anniversary". In this occasion, the couple might choose everything wooden as their decorations in the lieu of their feast. Even the gift that the couple may receive from each other and the guests are made of wood. Not forgetting the ones who celebrate also should have something made of wood on their costumes. Must be funny indeed and fun.

Other wedding anniversaries names such as Tin, Crystal, and others surely must be celebrated in a similar way. Now, let us wonder if ever a couple's marriage reaches the Diamond Wedding, would they clad themselves  in diamond and receiving diamonds as gifts? That would be very awesome!

Ramayana epic dance

Hinduism hold a colorful culture with its educative mythology. It is true to other believers, Hinduism is taken as something that they should not believe and practice, but from the time that Hinduism was known to have stories that somehow provide some positive teachings, many of those people still read and appreciate what were written by the ancient pious. And nowadays those stories are even presented in form of dances or theatrical dances or call it epic dance.

To this day, several countries in Asia like India, Thailand, Burma and even Indonesia preserve the stories of the characters in the Hindu mythology in dances and the most popular is the story of Ramayana, king of Astina and his queen Devi Sita (Bahasa Indonesia - Dewi Sita)

In Indonesia, in each year, one evening in a full-moon summer night, they used to organize a dance festival. And most of the time it is in Special Territory of Sultanate of Jogjakarta. They put up a stage platform with Prambanan Temple as the background. Sometimes, in that particular night, they show more than one version of the Ramayana myth performed by several dance groups from Java and Bali.

There were times when an international platform performance were organized when participants from the above-mentioned countries show their versions.

The dancers will gracefully narrate the story of a king who had a faithful wife who bore all the sufferings and humiliations as a woman. A story that nowadays many women are taking example from.




Jatayu the eagle wounded reported to Rama and Laksmana


Thailand as mentioned, also has her own time of performing the Ramayana dance.






And India, where the mythology supposed to have come from, she has the originality of the whole story...
