ABOUT ME

I've never been able to figure out what to put here. I guess, most of the people only read the references anyway. So, scroll your way down and form your opinion :)

PHILOSOPHY

"ohda rab nahi rusda saun rab di jennu yaar manunda chajj hove.. oh waat makke di kyun paave, jiday yaar nu takkeyaan hajj hove?" #punjabi -shah hussain (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shah_Hussain) translation: their lord doesn’t get upset with those who know to appease their beloved. Why should they even visit the Mecca (read: mosque / church / temple), whose Hajj (read: pilgrimage) is just the sight of their beloved?
