am sorry if i missed anyone,there are around 50 authors i guess.[Told you,this blog is a huge and a great effort]
Genre - Social
Created-26th decemebr,2004
Read many blogs,reviewed few of them,liked many,but man this was great in every sense of the word.this blog should be termed as a movement.Kudos to the people who started it and maintained it so very well.Reading it was like i have immersed myself into a huge information bank about everything and anything i want to know about tsunami,the news,the relief operations.the organizations working for the cause.
The large group of authors ensures that we have opinions and views of people from all parts of the world.Also look at the features,the amount of effort that has been done to ensure that this blog doesnt remain a mere blog but a movement of a large scale.So you have a feature which translates the text in 8 different languages of your choice.Then there are special email addresses to contact the people,if anyone wants to particiapte in the blog as a volunteer or translator etc.
Not to forget the very useful list of resource links.
3 posts i definately will recomnd the readers would be :-
1. PM' relief fund
2. A first person account of his volunteer efforts in sri lanka
3. Solomon Islands : six dead from tsunami

So a great blog and i think we should have more of such blogs for a social awakening to happen.Do chek it out.

Next on the voyager series coming all the way from Pakistan is the official blog of zeest's band.
Till then keep commenting and keep blogging.

happy Blogginggg!!!

An epidemic of loneliness: Why are we lonely in a world so full?

In the town of Havenwood, an unusual epidemic takes over—not one of physical illness, but an outbreak of loneliness. When Lina, a fiery yet secretly tender-hearted skeptic of romance, meets Quinn, a free-spirited artist questioning the same ideas, they are forced to confront whether real connection lies beyond romantic love or if they are truly doomed to solitude. It was a crisp day in Havenwood, and the sky was brooding—dark clouds laced with impatient energy before a thunderstorm, as if even the heavens felt the town’s growing melancholy. It was not the kind of town you would expect to be cloaked in loneliness. Stone cottages lined the narrow, winding roads, and the trees had that sage-like stillness that you only see in stories and dreams. I hadn’t been here long when the problem struck me like a slap in the face: everyone was obsessed with finding The One, as if every single person was but half a person, wandering through life like a lost sock in search of its pair.

I have had too many experiences where I was treated as a second class citizen in the temple . Why? Well I could not afford giving thousands as donation. This is not how it should be , God looks at each one of us with the same divinity .As I mentioned God for me is a friend, so tell me, do we chose friends based on their bank balances? Do we give our verdict on them ? then how can God do it? I know many of us would ...
