You don’t weep unless you’ve been happy first; tears always mean something enviable.

About Me
- Anil P
- At the turn of the century I returned to Bombay from Goa, not an easy decision to make. A software company let me in, then another, then yet another. Time ran past. This time around I was wise enough not to give chase. So occasionally I take my camera along, searching for corners, finding them where none exist. And some of them are painted blue.

Well, that was mysterious and cryptic.
I hope you are not weeping.
Hmmm!
Oh dear....
this is cryptic
...it is also so very true
Honestly, Anil, I am not sure if I got it right.
true, so true.
Definitely a thought provoking quote!
I am late here and catching up as usual. The previous post on the bird sanctuary was very sad to read - so pleased you provided an update at the end..
Tears for Souvenirs.
Riot Kitty: Yes, very. The cryptic is unfailingly mysterious.
Grannymar: Journey Without Maps is singularly touching for its threatened foreboding page after page. a foreboding of a different kind.
Meena Venkataraman: Hmmm!
VioletSky: Mystery in what is left unsaid in a cryptic context.
Dr. Antony: Essentially Graham Greene looks at tears in a different perspective, reaching its genesis in a screaming observation.
Blommer22: Very.
Karen: Thank you. Greene is right on with his observation.
Tony: Absolutely, Tony. Very well said.
poignant and poetic. but does it mean we dont appreciate the good until its lost?
Ms.N: More than not appreciating the good until it is lost, it's rather a case of longing for the good once it has passed, more so if visited by bad times.
