Not proud of it :( Not happy about the fact that our mind auto-pilots to thinking about it either. Deep respect for human abilities.

I'll remember its name. Right now, I'm praying for something, so maybe this Coucal will bring me good luck today. It's beautiful in a strange way - honey-charcoal - a unique color combination.

When I was younger, I dreamed of going to the US because it looked like the only place in the world where ability was the passport to success. There's little doubt the US has changed for the worse. But the American public still believes in hard work, equality, and honesty; you will steer it right.

These three countries constituted the erstwhile British Raj. When the British left India in 1947, it was divided into Pakistan and India. Later, Pakistan was divided into Pakistan and Bangladesh. The British in India treated Indians as servants - so you know now.

Panther at the right, the deer at the left. Two stories in one sculpture. The panther wants its food; the deer wants to live. Philosophically beautiful!

Second take. It's not a dragon fight. Is it a leopard fighting a wolf...? Will you be posting the finished version?

Thank you. I did watch the video multiple times and saw a few other things too, but the tail wag was confirmatory. An elephant walks on a dirt path and doesn't move any dirt or dust; the grass blades near its foot don't get trampled - and there's absolutely no breeze.
